Description Art by

Bonbon slammed her armor-clad hoof down with all the fury of a goddess behind it. "In the name of Celestia, I banish you, unholy abomination!" Light flashed under her hoof and a hissing screech answered her challenge, before being finally silenced. She lifted the limb up, leaving a sizable crater behind in her wake, and glared around the dark forest.

Formless horrors shrank back into the shadows, still lurking but unwilling to challenge the giant mare any further.

Bonbon waited a moment longer, then sighed through her nose; that would do, for now. She turned around slowly, even her most careful movements causing minor tremors and deforming the ground with each step. "Well then, when where you planning on telling me you learned this spell?"

Down on the path, Lyra smirked up at her marefriend as her horn still glowed. "I only found the scroll with it yesterday, and we've had a bit of a busy day."

Bonbon gave a grunt of acquiescence, 'busy' would have been an understatement. Losing her hammer had just been the start of things; and this little ambush in the Everfree probably wouldn't be the end of it. "Fine, I suppose." A moment passed. "...you can cancel the spell any time, Lyra."

The unicorn never lost her smirk, nor her horn its glow. "Yes, I can."

Another moment came and went. "Well?"

"Well... I am rather curious about how this spell works; like, say, what would happen if I cast it again."

Bonbon felt her eye twitch; this was going to be a long NIGHT as well, it seemed.

---------------------

Okay, so... yeah; Lyra and Bonbon in a similar manner to how they would be in my MLP Fanfic The Necromantic Adventures of Lyra Heartstrings.

I can't exactly say this describes a scene in the story, since it doesn't... but, knowing me, there's actually at least a 45-50% chance of something similar to this playing out in the future. Eh, I guess we'll have to see.

Seriously, though; major props to for doing this, it's probably the weirdest commission he's gotten in a while.

Too bad Bon-Bon/Agent Sweetie Drops didn't have this spell when she first took out the Bugbear-- would have made her job easier (and the banishment more permanent!).

Yes, but I feel it would have also led to Lyra using it for her own amusement, as seen here.

Nothing bad about that, methinks.

And maybe she'll zap herself with it and be big with her Bonsie.

Once she gets a handle on how big the spell can go, I'm sure she will.

(Hint: It's VERY big.)

Dragon-of-Twilght In reply to SomeRandomMinion [2015-06-23 01:12:54 +0000 UTC]

Thinking about it, depending on the city, that might not even count as an evil act. So she could do it and keep her paladin status.

Hmm, maybe that could be BonBon Lyra's battle plan for Tambelon returning: make Bon huge and have her land her rump on the dark city. XD

Quite humiliating for said evil as well: no grand battle, no bantering with the hero...just end up as a seat cushion. Even BonBon could appreciate that bit...even if she gets annoyed by Lyra always making her huge at the first sign of trouble.

And then, say; Rainbow Dash and/or Pinkie might want to try.... XD

Would she make HERSELF big too? Maybe she'd want to join in the "fun", much to Bon Bon's annoyance. (ESPECIALLY if Lyra went after who/what ever Bon Bon was battling!)

And when Twilight picks up the spell...

Bon Bon: [Noticing her huge marefriend's horn begin to glow] "Lyra, if you make me ONE INCH taller I will--Gah!"

*Bon Bon yelped as an annoyingly familiar surge of magic hit her. When the flash cleared, she was as big as Lyra*

Giant!Lyra: "Glad you could join me, Bonsie! So, you wanna take the lead squishing these creeps?"

Giant!Bon Bon: *Puts a hoof on her now not-so-huge marefriend's chest, glaring.* You. Couch. Next TWO weeks.

Giant!Lyra: Aw, come on, sweetie; you know you enjoy it~

Giant!Bon Bon: *Groans, putting a hoof to her forehead now.* Where did you even find this spell?

*MEANWHILE, down below the arguing titans.*

Unnamed Demon: *Laughs... sorta evilly, he's been trying to get the actual evil laugh down for a few weeks now.* Soon, my grand plan to cause mayhem and destruction will come to pass. And I shall finally be important enough for a name!

[Sadly, the moment of elation for the demon was all too brief. Seconds before he could launch into another monologue--one he'd also been practicing for a while--a large, rather round shadow fell over him.

He looked up just in time to see a crushing green mass...decorated with a golden lyre...slam down onto his form, crushing him into oblivion almost instantly]

Giant!Lyra: [Sitting, snickering like a filly] "Sorry, no name for you...unless you like 'Pancake'!" *Wiggles and grinds her flanks on the ground for good measure* "As for where I picked this lovely little spell up: Twilight taught me. Said she adapted it from basic polymorphic spells and a bit of reverse-tuned^ Changeling magic; or something. Neat, huh?"

[Seeing their comrade so easily disposed of by the green titaness's rump, the remaining demons began to scatter, many running for the hills to escape the giant mares. A few of the smaller or slower fiends merely hid behind trees or bushes, caught between escape or just pleading for mercy]

^Magical/Arcane equivalent to "reverse-engineered".

Giant!Bon Bon: *Sighs to herself, plopping her own rump down with an earthshaking 'Thud!'* I need to have a long talk with that mare...

[Several more of the minor fiends end up similarly pancaked to the first; and, as if solely to add insult to their injury, the divine magic inherent in the paladin's body only served to banish them even faster. They would be laughed at for centuries to come, simply for being victims of a 'holy rump'.]

Giant!Bon Bon: *Blinks a few times, slowly smiling as she wiggles about herself, widening the crater made by simply sitting down and grinding a few more demons out of the mortal plane in the process.* Then again... I suppose there isn't really anything wrong with using these sort of means to keep evil in check. And that did feel pretty good.

[Giant!Lyra squees, leaning forward to hug her enlarged marefriend. An idle flick of her tail swats away still more minor fiends, either slamming them into trees and rocks with literally back-breaking force; or rocketing off into the air to become twinkles in the sky]

Giant!Lyra: "See, girl? I told you this could be fun! It's great that you take your paladin duties so seriously and all, but you've gotta loosen up sometimes. And it still gets the job done, right?"

Giant!Bon Bon: [Pulling back from the hug, she looks around at the flattened demons scattered about, many of which are turning to quickly-fading smoke] "...Yes, the fiends are still dealt with. But when word of this little...'sit-down' gets out, I'm gonna be the laughingstock of my fellow paladins...."

Giant!Lyra: "Pfft, stuck-ups. Besides, I know a SHRINKING spell too--if they get too rough teasing you about this, just ask me. Then it's a quick ZAP, and you can show the morons just how effective my little method is."

Giant!Bon Bon: [Gives Giant!Lyra a playful hoof-punch in the shoulder] "Don't tempt me; corrupting the morals of a paladin in grounds for getting thrown in the slammer right quick. Now come on, there's probably a few stragglers to finish off, and we haven't got all night..."

Giant!Lyra: *Giggles like a schoolfilly and leans forward* Don't be too sure about that, hon; this spell can last a LONG time if I don't cancel it. *She gives her titan of a marefriend a quick kiss and stands up, gleefully skipping through the forest, with her hooves the bane of many an unlucky fiend or horror as she take her ground shaking trot.*

Giant!Bon Bon: *Watches her go for a moment or two with a wistful smile.* By Celestia, I love that mare. *She finally stands up herself and follower her lover into the night, stomping on any of the ones who manage to skirt Lyra's hooves as she catches up to her. A smile spread out on her lips, she was really starting to enjoy this spell; maybe Lyra was onto something, maybe they should see how big they could get. Especially if this size already made handling minor fiends so easily; an even bigger size might let them handle the more powerful ones.*

(I love the idea of them just growing huge and spending the whole time being playful with each other, while their every action just smites all sorts of demons and devils.)

[Giant!Lyra smirked as she heard her marefriend trot up behind her...and the many shouts, cut off in the middle, of the fiends Giant!Bon Bon was stomping. She'd known she'd get the earth pony to stop being such a stick in the mud eventually. Who knew it'd take making them both the size of farmhouses to do it? Well, the 'how' didn't matter, as long as she could be with the mare she loved...and if she got the chance to play Pony-zilla with a few evil fiends, so much the better]

Giant!Lyra: *Not looking as Giant!Bon Bon falls in beside her* "Having fun, Bonnie?"

Giant!Bon Bon: *Giggles, stomping an errant fiend without even looking* "Yes, Harp-Butt. Though I guess....Demon-Slayer-Butt fits better--ugh, that's not catchy at all--"

Giant!Lyra: *Lightly bumps her flank into Giant!Bon Bon's* "I kinda like 'Harpflank, Heroine of Rumpy Wrath'. Heh, can you believe those little freaks actually begged YOU to protect them from ME? I never knew my rear could be that scary! It was like a dragon was gonna eat them or something!"

Giant!Bon Bon: *Rolls eyes, scanning the area for more tiny fiends* "Well, you DID flatten a whole bunch of them with it. How do you think us paladins get 'legendary' weapons? Some swords or warhammers DO have a few enchantments for high-ranking paladins, but really it's just because they've taken out so many demons..." *Looks at her any Giant!Lyra's sizes, then up at the sky between the trees...and decides to take the leap* "Hey, Lyra....just how big CAN you make us with that spell? Maybe we should take this up a notch or two before we go back to normal...?"

Giant!Lyra: *Actually pauses to think, sitting down (and making sure to flatten even more demons as she did) and doing some mental math. While she would never be Twilight, she did have a fairly decent grasp of magic, the same as any unicorn, so could figure out the basic calculations... or not so basic, it turned out. She actually had to resort to drawing in dirt to keep her numbers straight as the theoretical heights grew larger and larger.* Ha! *She surged up to her hooves, knocking away some minor fiends that had been trying, ineffectually, to attack her.* Got it!

Giant!Bon Bon: *Pauses as she was preparing to sit down yet again.* Oh? How big did you come up with?

Giant!Lyra: *Grins wildly.* Go head and finish, you're going to want to be sitting down for this.*

Giant!Bon Bon: *Blinks, but goes with it, flattening no less than seven minor fiends in one huge sit-down, then grinding her rear down into the ground to get comfortable.* Okay?

Giant!Lyra: Are you ready for this, Bon Bon? *Lyra smirked.* If I concentrated; I could easily get us... I'd say at least big enough to look Cloudsdale in the eye.

Giant!Bon Bon: [Recoils in shock, eyes widening] "I...wait, what?!"

Giant!Lyra: [Smug grin, nodding] "You heard me right--girl, I can make us titans, with juuust a little focus."

Giant!Bon Bon: *Still flabbergasted, though she does stomp a minor fiend trying to escape, without even looking* "But...but why would we even NEED to get that big? What about collateral damage?"

Giant!Lyra: "Hey, when you've got demons, there's no such thing as overkill. Besides, it's not like we'd be hard to miss at that size. Anypony who gets caught in the middle probably isn't the smartest sort around; seeing two mega-mares AND demons and not booking it. And you just know we'll run into something more challenging than these small fries eventually, amirite? Why not be proactive?"

*Before Bon Bon could answer, Lyra's ear suddenly flicked and she swiveled her head to the side. Glaring in curiosity, the unicorn seemed to track some sound toward a nearby bush...that was shaking rather violently despite the lack of wind. Smirking and licking her lips, she lit up her horn--preparing to yank another demon from its hiding place*

Giant!Lyra: "Hey, I'm gonna toss this one at ya. Five bits if you can catch it in your hooves without squishing it, ten if you catch it in your mouth. On three: one, two...."

Dragon-of-Twilght In reply to SomeRandomMinion [2015-07-29 14:11:27 +0000 UTC]

Giant!Lyra: Three!

*The demon is flung into the air, along with most of the bush it had been hiding behind, leaving Bon Bon to awkwardly stumble through some trees to try and catch it in the wild arc. Its flailing limb didn't make things any easier, shifting its trajectory around with each tumble. When it finally did come down, she opened her mouth and it... bounced off her nose.*

Giant!Bon Bon: *Scrunches up her nose on instinct* Darn it! *She does manage to catch it before it hits the ground, though, trapping it between her forehooves as she landed on her belly with a minor earthquake.* Looks like I still get five bits then, hon.

Giant!Lyra: [Snorts, smiling a bit as she trots over] "Heh, not quite yet Bonsie; remember, I said you had to catch the little freak without squishing it. Now open those hooves. If the fiend is flat, your wallet's not getting fat."

[Bon Bon was still lying on the ground, pinning her forehooves together. Her eyebrows tabled upon hearing Lyra's rhyming tease, and she turned towards her marefriend]

Giant!Bon Bon: "Leave the poetry to Zecora, harp-butt. And yeah, yeah; I remember. Alright, here goes.... [Under her breath:] How did I go from slaying demons to using them to play catch?"Β 

[Bon Bon slowly parted her hooves to reveal....a very UN-squished demon. Specifically a dazed, very young-looking, succubus-filly]

Giant!Lyra: [Thunderous squee, magically snatching Bon Bon's captive from her hooves. She floats the demon-filly up to her massive muzzle and begins cuddling her like a tiny pet.] "OMIGOSH! SOOOOO CUTE!!! Bonsie, can we keep her? Please?"

Succubus-Filly: [Shivering, looking between the two titanic mares] "Um...you two aren't gonna squish or eat me, are you? The paladin was trying to catch me in her mouth...."

Giant!Bon Bon: [Rolling her eyes, but cracking a grin] "For the record, kid: that was HER idea, not mine."

Giant!Bon Bon: *Deadpan, but can't lose her smile* Lyra, that would be way too sweet to ever taste good.

Succubus-Filly: *Isn't shivering as much anymore, just looking backing forth between the two giants.* Um... what about me?

Giant!Bon Bon: *Puts a hoof to her chin as she thinks.* Well... you know, I am a paladin... so, it's my job to slay demons...

Succubus-Filly: *Eeps, going right back to shivering.*

Giant!Bon Bon: *Smiles, reaching up a hoof to lightly rub the tiny filly's head.* But, well, since you don't seem to be doing anything wrong, I think the captain will be okay with it.

Giant!Lyra: *Gives another thunderous squee, hugging her marefriend and getting the tiny demon filly a bit smooshed between the two them.* EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! THANK YOU, BONNIE!
