So "cushioning", to put it simply. As for species unable to use it outside of subconscious means, i'd imagine it's incorporated into their muscles somehow, or something related.
While Twilight in Equestria Girls implies that magic either is (or emits) something akin to light (I lean toward emits, as i've shown before that magic is carried in gas in Equestria), that still does not explain how any attempted spell in the changeling lands is sucked inwards, towards the throne. Even Starlight's stationary glow is pulled in faster than she moves her head
In terms of how two entities charged in the same manner impacting one another works (i'd assume you're discussing two unicorns in close proximity), it's possible that it only becomes charged while charged magic is being generated through emotions, allowing a certain level of control over how much power is contained in an organic vessel.
We're discussing the throne for something of this scale, I assume? If you're talking about how this 'stable positive ion' could exist.. Well, I see no better alternative. It could be a constant reaction making an equilibrium, I suppose, and we do keep ionic liquids around IRL in batteries. And the throne is certainly not organic.
