"Mom.. I told you, I'm not hungry.." Coming downstairs was an pony unicorns mare of light orange color and pumpkin colored tail and mane, said mane was long and a bit frizzy looking but also bore an large blue bow on the back of it which reminds you a bit of Applebloom in a sense. Intriguingly enough, her Cutie Mark was of a Pumpkin-shaped pastry, more specifically, the stereotypical smiling Jack-o-lantern surrounded by sparks and stars. The mare upon coming downstairs looked sour but upon seeing you, her expression slowly morphed into one of the surprise and wonder. To be honest, you were also quite surprised albeit internally.
As for you were looking at Pumpkin Cake, but... grown up, like... young, adult grown up.
What?
"I know Dearie." The Blue Mare gave her an apologetic smile "I just made the dinner for three and I can't simply let you out, especially when we have an special visitor." She then turned to you. "Oh [M/Y]. I present you my daughter, my wonderful Pumpkin Cake. Dearie, this is [M/Y], the only human visitor in the town." The Blue Mare presented you both to each other and with it, confirming your initial suspicion about the not-so-mystery mare "Say hello, dear." Cup Cake whispered to her. This seems to snap out of her shock and blinked several time before her expression went for friendly one, completed with a bright smile.
"Hello!" She greeted. "Sorry about that.. I was napping and considering it's heat season and affecting every mare around, this is my way to cope and I don't like being woken up." She let out an awkward chuckle, her ears drops in a floppy state before she shake out of it, her bright expression returned, thought there is some nervousness in it. You also noted that smell of pumpkins now being mixed with the blueberries. "Anyway, I'm Pumpkin Cake, nice to meet you, it's quite a surprise seeing the only human in the town and... upclose."
"Ahh yes.. the pleasure is all mine." You say and offered and handshake, both mare looked at the gesture a bit puzzling, you sighed a bit "..an handshake? Oh.. right, you have no hands but hooves, nevermind." Pumpkin however perked up.
"Oh, like a hoofshake?" She raised an hoof to meet yours, you smiled on the save and went to grasp it, noting how soft it feels, you felt the thin soft fur on your hand and fingers as the gesture was done, she blushed quite a abit while her mother giggled on the sight, when the gesture was over, she opted to look on her hoof with a bit of surprise and... a bit of amazement. The feeling of awkwardness returned as you don't know how to respond to this, luckily, her mother took initiative and coughed to call both of your attention, which also snaps out of her trance.
"I think we should get eating, I'd hate to have to cook it again if it get cold." She says, you nodded to her, Pumpkin did the same but you noTed that the smell of Pumpkins grew more intense, almost overpowering the smell of blueberries.
***
When he dinner started, almost nobody talked other than complementing Cup's cooking which came from both of you, she took this with pride even if she acted a bit humbled about it but over that little episode, things were a bit awkwardly silent, none of you really did anything other focus on your meals and looking on each other, sort of waiting for someone to talk, you noticed that the smell of BlueBerries and Pumpkins were getting stronger each time hey took a look at you, particularly the latter. It didn't took you long to figure it out what was that. It was them or rather their heat.
You kind already suspected it, originally for the former, you thought was because Cup Cake was backing something with blueberries but as soon Pumpkin came downstairs and the smell of her namesake assaulted your nostrils, you began to suspect. Talking about Pumpkin, you were surprised of her being an what looks like to be an young adult mare rather than adorable babe, you started to check silently and mentally your Lexicon about being sent far into the future of this Equestria all while still eating but there were some mental images coming from the results. No, you were on the right time. Pinkie hadn't met Sandwich yet. Twilight just got her Castle and her ascension is pretty much recent thing, relatively speaking, and Flurry Heart was just born. This made you suspect that you were on an alternative universe where the Cakes meet and had gotten the Twins far early, enough for the twins to be around Mane Six's age group, maybe a bit younger on the side of the scale but close enough.
It was to be expected, all things considered, universes portrayed as the show it runs on usually are minimal, there was going to be variations of any kind and you were quite surprised on seeing one, then again, you had came to see a bit of the background of this Equestria having former human civilization, something that wasn't in part of the canon and frankly that both surprises you and puzzle you, it is also intrigue you but that seems to be part of the iceberg of this world.
"Soo..." Your throught ended as soon you heard the voice of the Pumpkin-themed mare began to talk ands soon she swallowed her piece , she looked at you with curiosity. "What brings you here to Equestria?" Her question was simple and seemly innocent but also very pointed, Cup Cake looks at her daughter with slight surprise but hadn't said anything else, instead she looked at you, as almost expecting an answer. You set down the utensils and gave your answer.
"Well.. I'm a mage, an plane-walking mage, to be exact. I've been recently done my training and set out to explore the multiverse, currectly, I'm trying to learn new magics and I had heard of this plane being home of the Princess of Magic, I seek to be her apprentice, if nothing else, just some books of sorcery would suffice." You added. It was true, you gave the illusion that she would accept you just right away, you could always ask for magic books instead. Pumpkin grimaced a bit while her mother looked intrigued.
"You seek Twilight? I guess that makes sense if you are trying to learn magic but dearie... eh.. You kind of appeared on the wrong time, Pinkie went with her to see the birth of her niece, last telegram she sent, was that they wont returning for at least few days more."
"Yeah... beside, you. You could always go to the Palace's library. It's public and there are some magic spells and... color me curious but you didn't said that your training was completed?" Pumpkin took over the conversation for abit, you looked at her confused until you realized what she meant, you did clarified further on your explanation."
"Well yes, my training is completed but mostly on the Space and Time spells and other sorcery related, I, however need help on developing spells that are wholly unique to me and learning other magics and abilities from across the multiple planes would help me up on my task, it is sort of a tradition for plane sorcerers like myself." You didn't mentioned the whole 'last of your kind' kind of thing as its only relevant over magical reason as humans are plenty you but mages of your kind aren't, you really don't wanna add fuel to the whole 'Humans are extinct' thing that is in Equestria, frankly, you don't know what to expect if you said it, you felt the need that you shouldn't, considering mares in heat, it would add further excuses to jump up to your pants and make moves over people that aren't themselves.
"Oh I get it now.." Pumpkin conceded but then started to grin, the smell pumpkin somewhat intensify. ".. You also want to charm a princess, aren't you?" Your eyes widen and looked at her a bit dumbfounded.
"Oh my.. Pumpkin!" Cup Cake gasped and lightly giggled.
"What? He could've just told any unicorn around the town for some magic lessons too, why would he need to get to a newly crowned, busy and bossy Princess? You could've have asked anypony, like me for example..." Pumpkin suggested with a sly grin "I know some unique spells, by Tartarus, I was candidate for Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns because I mastered several complex spells of Starwirl the Bearded's books in my fillyhood but I won't blame you for trying to score a royal pussy." You blushed and stared at her agaped on what she just said, she seems to not notices your expression, neither her mother's gasp on the rather crass choice of words, the initial mirth was gone, The smell of pumpkin intensified as she continued "You know, I think Twilight would bore you.. what about her old teacher; Princess Celestia, hm? Did I mention she had an school? I heard she love to recieve new students nowadays now that Twilight's graduated or what about her sister, Princess Luna? But honestly, you wouldn't last with either of them, maybe you should lower your expectation and try something more.. local" She chuckles sultrily "I would offer you my experience, I do know some tricks that even Twilight doesn't know-"
"Pumpkin Cake, stop this instant!" The sudden stern tone of Cup Cake startled you both. The young mare stopped for a second then stared on her mother's rather stern look directed to her "Young Lady, are you hearing yourself? We don't speak of such words about the princesses! You are also making our guest unncomfortable by it! I know that the heat is unbearable but that's not how you talk to an stallion either. Now, apologize!"
"But-"
"Now missy.." The pumpkin colored mare looked down on her plate and frowned, she mumbled something under her breath. Awkwardly, you looked at the blue mare whose gaze is still fixed on her.
"..I think it's fine Mrs Cake-" You words died on your throat as you were interrupted by Pumpkin.
"No, mom is right... I'm sorry, I let my heat influences my good judgement, I actually meant to say that you were on the wrong time to meet the princess, that's all.." She pushes the words out her mouth, she looked as she was really sorry, she sighed afterward.
As for you were looking at Pumpkin Cake, but... grown up, like... young, adult grown up.
What?
"I know Dearie." The Blue Mare gave her an apologetic smile "I just made the dinner for three and I can't simply let you out, especially when we have an special visitor." She then turned to you.

You also noted that smell of pumpkins now being mixed with the blueberries. "Anyway, I'm Pumpkin Cake, nice to meet you, it's quite a surprise seeing the only human in the town and... upclose."
