“Prince Page?”
I opened an eye and looked down on Cadance before I opened my second one and yawned, “Princess Cadance,” I said, “No, do come into my bedroom in the middle of the day. I don’t mind at all being woken up at bucking noon.”
I hate ponies.
The pink alicorn had the good manners to look a bit chagrined, “...My apologies,” she said, “I didn’t think of that. I wanted to talk to you.”
The pink menace wasn’t going away.
Suppressing a sigh, I let go with my tail as I spread my wings and flew down to land before her, “if we’re going to be talking this early, I need tea.”
Cadance nodded and followed along as I moved down to the kitchen, keeping quiet until I spoke up as I put some water on a burner,
“Well, what did you want to talk about?” I finally asked her as I dug out the box of tea.
Cadance sat down across the counter from me, “Twilight.”
I nodded, “And you are worried that she’s just going for Tempest.”
Cadance frowned and then shook her head, “No, not that Twilight. The Twilight from your world.”
“Oh,” I said, “I see. What about?”
She shrugged a bit, “Mostly curious,” she admitted, “And her relationship with you.”
“Ah,” I said, nodding and checking the water, “What would you like to know?”
Cadance put a hoof on the counter, “About your relationship,” she said as she looked at me intensely, “because Twilight is like eighty percent into mares.”
“...My Twilight or your Twilight?” I asked with a small frown.
She sighed and rolled her eyes, “...Midnight.”
I smiled at her, “See, much easier.”
She nodded, “Admittedly yes,” she agreed, “So how did you get together with your Twilight?”
“Well, it was kind of a slow progress,” I admitted and took the water of the heater, running my magic across it before putting it back on and measuring the tea up into a strainer. I filled the teapot with hot water and whirled it around, “And kind of a package deal to start with. I got together with Sunset Shimmer whom she’s dating. It actually took years before Sparks and I got further than cuddles and even then it was always with Sunset. Us being a thing between us took a while.”
Cadance nodded as I refilled the teapot, adding a strainer of tea to it, “How did that happen?”
I grinned and shook my mane back, raising my wings, “Because I’m a pretty batty pony.”
“Pretty batty sounds about right,” Cadance agreed with a teasing smile, “So, going to marry her?”
“Yes,” I said firmly as I poured us a cup each, sliding one over to her, “But I know she wants to marry Sunset first and Sunset says she isn’t ready yet.”
She slowly nodded again and picked up her cup, “I see,” she said quietly.
“What are you thinking about?” I asked and sipped my tea.
“You,” she said quietly and then sipped her tea before blinking and looking down at it in surprise.
I smirked at her, “What?”
“...This is good.”
“Yes, it’s good. It’s tea,” I told her, “Prepared properly and without being scorched by boiling water.”
Cadance smiled a bit, “I only had tea like this with aunty Celestia. Though admittedly, I am much more for coffee.”
I glowered at her with a small scowl, “So that’s where Sparks learned that. Heretics, both of you.”
Cadance laughed, “I suppose,” she said and sipped her tea again before looking at me across the cup, “What about foals?”
Sipping my tea for a second to think, I then flicked my ears, “I know my Luna wants some,” I said softly, “But we have been moving from crisis to crisis and then this entire thing with Nocturnis. It hasn't been good timing so we have been careful. Maybe… when things calms down a little.”
“A small tip, it never calms down.”
“Isn’t that the truth,” I sighed and looked at her, “But to be completely honest, none of us is even sure it’s even possible. I mean, pure statistics means that Celestia should have dozens by now if it was possible.”
Cadance smirked a bit, “You would think so,” she said before she looked at me, “But you’re an alicorn. They weren’t.”
“Odds seem poor.”
“I did.”
I rolled my eyes, “Well, you’re a fertility goddess, fairly sure that’s cheating.”
“I am not!” Cadance exclaimed.
“Tell that to the Griffins,” I teased, “They have statues and everything.”
She gaped at me in horror, “They don’t!”
“Oh yes, they do,” I said with a grin, “Almost as big as Lunas.”
Cadance sighed and rubbed her eyes, “...be as it may, my domain is love, not…”
“Well, it’s definitely a lot closer than anypony else.”
She shook her head, “My point is,” she said, “Is that if you and your mares are looking for a foal, ask the me in your world. I can help.”
I raised an eyebrow at her, “I’m not sure Sparks would be comfortable with your assistance like that. Then there is Shining and-”
“With spells!” Cadance exclaimed and facehooved as she blushed to the tips of her ears, “Spells, buck it. No wonder you’re married with aunty Luna, you have the same sense of humor!”
“Ah,” I said and nodded with a smile, “So that’s it.”
Cadance looked a bit guilty, “So you figured it out.”
“Trying to figure out what I’m really like so you can help Luna,” I said and nodded, “Makes sense. Want the most important tip?”
“Yes?”
“Somepony that’s not intimidated by her.”
Cadance nodded, “Goes for most ponies.”
“Yes, but it’s even more important for us,” I said seriously, “Especially for Luna and Celestia. Ponies are so used to revering alicorns and ponies looking up to them. They need somepony that doesn't give a buck about that. I’m sure Shining Armor wasn’t afraid of you.”
Cadance laughed, “You’re kidding, right? He was terrified of me!” she said with a grin and sipped her tea, “But admittedly it was because I was a pretty mare, not because I was an alicorn. He grew out of it.”
I smirked, “Sounds about right.”
She smiled, “What of-” she started to say before she frowned slightly, “Wait, you said Shining and… and what? What were you going to say?”
“Well, your second stallion of course,” I said and sipped my tea.
Her jaw dropped slightly, “What, who?” she asked in surprise.
“Oh? Does the Princess of Love need help with love?” I asked with a grin, “ironic.”
She glowered at me, “Spill.”
“Sunburst.”
Cadance blinked in surprise, “...Sunburst,” she then said thoughtfully, looking down onto her tea, “I guess I can see that.”
lol, said the scorpion, lmao
First she claims she isn't a fertility goddess, then she offers to help by applying fertility/virility enhancing blessings (spells). The Griffin's have a point, she is just in denial.
That said, I don't know if the world can handle more baby alicorns. Flurry Heart was a terror as a toddler. A thestral alicorn baby would be sneaky and destructive.
“I am not a fertility goddess!”
10 seconds later...
“I can help you with that fertility problem! I have spells!”
Thanks for chapter!
Have a good day!
great chapter
Is that what I'm doing wrong all the time?
oh yeah? if ya ain't a fertility goddess then why do the griffs that worship you have so many kids!?! SPLAIN DAT!
Sunburst? Really?!?
This story... It's...

Especially this chapter 👍

"Look, I have a cult, they already have a book of mythology explaining the appearance of the second twilight and have a series of prophecies based on tea leaves. I hate it. Celly had a cult now its more like a state religion, Luna has...well I think celly's cult might have murdered them all at one point now they're part of cellys cult. there's a potentially evil pulsating batpony alicorn statue buried in the depths of the jungle that had blood sacrifices offered up to it for uncounted centuries. Being seen as a fertility goddess to other species isn't that bad all things considered."

True, true... *nods sagely*

Absolutely the best way to start the apocalypse. Death by cuteness
11354899
Absolutely priceless
Cadance: "So has Flurryheart a sibling yet?"
Page: "Yes, the Colt is named Sundown. Because he is starting to get active at Night. Shining Armor ask me if i wasn't the Father by any chance because the Foal is driving him Bat-Shit-crazy at Night.
Cadance: "Really?!"
Page: "No, but the mental image is worth a Kingdom"
Cadance: "I see why my Sunny Aunt is after your flanks, you both like pranks with a sunny burn..."
Page: Oh you also have Discord in your herd in my world. Tho I think the most you two do is cuddles and plotting ships.
Cadance: I have THREE males in my herd?! The nobility must think I'm a harlot!
Page: Well Sunburst and Discord are discreet about it so society at large don't know yet.
Cadance: Well..your world's Cadance must have an excellent success rate with Discord's power as a resource.
Page: ... *sips tea loudly*
Cadance: What? I am good at my job shipping ponies in your world right!? Right?!
Page: ... *sips tea EXTRA loudly while avoiding eye contact*
Cadance: AM I A JOKE TO YOU?!
Page had to go to a whole other timeline just so he could get one over on Celestia and Cadance
11355058
Yes. Yes, you are the biggest joke around in all of Equestria.
How more embarrassed would Cadence be if she knew they also have body pillows in different poses of her as well?
Nice
Wait.
Did windy_prance hijack Hiver's account to write this chapter!?
suspicious Kevin Lee is suspicious
This here, gives me some realy good ideas. Now what to do...
11355111
WOOT! I'm a reference! My influence is too strong!
11355140
Trust me. I would ADORE Hiver if I was consulted or even given early access to future chapters. But alas...nope. I have to wait like everyone else.
Hmm, Cadence looks like she needs help from her own interdimensional support group now.
Ironic.
11355438
Now if we can just get Sgt. Murphy to do a few more appearances...
How very Elvish of Page, though that's hardly a bad thing all things considered. Also a minor error in that 'calms' should be 'calm'.
Interesting with regards to Cadance's comments... Wonder what light it might spill upon Alicorn biology in this 'verse.
Today's grammar jackboot parade:
Cadance nodded and followed along as I moved down to the kitchen, keeping quiet until I had put some water on a burner.
Mutually exclusive terms, since a glower is a deep scowl.
Griffons
Luna's
In a previous chapter or maybe 🤔 the previous story you had it switched.
It was sunset who wanted to marry twilight first but twilight wasn't ready.
Just a bit of Continuity error no biggie just wanted to let you know.
11638220
This story as a whole is caked with continuity errors...
They are details that don't matter much but it does mess with a lot.
11890524
Yeah, that's my bad. I don't keep any notes.
