Twilight and Chrysalis were exhausted. They had just left the castle after attending to some pressing matters concerning Chrysalis’ stay in Equestria. Needless to say, not everyone was as forgiving after the Changeling Invasion on Canterlot. After a long discussion on where Chrysalis would stay, it was decided she would stay with Twilight as her responsibility. The need for her weekly “check-ups” made weekly trips to the capital a necessity. Rather than take the late night train back to Ponyville, the girls decided to simply crash at Twilight’s childhood home. At this late hour, no one would be awake to question Twilight bringing the Queen of the Changelings with her as a guest. They’d slip out quickly in the morning, and no one would be the wiser! A brilliant plan indeed! However, it would appear as though fate had a different idea for them.
What started out as a normal and quiet morning for the Sparkle household, turned into one of screams and surprises.
“GAHH!!! Twily!! What are doing in bed with her?! What is she even doing here?!” screamed a very shocked and disturbed Shining Armor.
He had been sent by his mother to wake Twilight up for breakfast, however, he didn’t expect see his baby sister on top of a dishevelled Queen Chrysalis. They were both sporting bite marks on their bodies along with other marks.
“Huh, what? Who’s there?” asked a groggy Twilight. Rubbing the sleep from her eyes, she finally focused on the figure standing at the door. Her brain trying to comprehend what she’d seen, only to release her own scream after realizing it was her brother standing there with his hands covering his eyes.
“S-Shiny, w-why are you in my room?!” screamed Twilight, fully alert and embarrassed. The scream roused her bed mate from her slumber.
“Hgnh, Twilight?” asked Chrysalis, “why is there so much noise this early in the morning?”
“Um C-Chryssy, I think it’s time we got d-dressed.” stammered a blushing Twilight.
Regaining her bearings, Chrysalis’ eyes fell on Shining Armor but unlike Twilight, she did not freak out.
“Oh hello there Shiny, long time no see.” Chrysalis greeted nonchalantly with a smirk on her face. She even gave a little wave with her hand.
Unfortunately for Twilight, her mother had heard the noise and decided to check to see what was going on. Twilight Velvet came bursting through door, oblivious to a petrified Shining Armor standing there.
“Is everything okay Twilight? I thought I heard a scr-“,Twilight Velvet’s question was halted as she took in the sight before her, “O-Oh dear, I’ll leave you and…your companion to get dressed…and I’ll expect you to explain this downstairs” were the last words said before she flew from the room like a lightning bolt.
“Why does the world hate me so?” cried Twilight who was minutes away from a looking like a tomato permanently. Chrysalis chuckled at her disposition and gave her lover a kiss on the cheek.
“Come now Twilight, it might not be as bad as you think.” Chrysalis said, trying to appease her frantic lover.
“Oh but what if she doesn’t like you, I mean you did try to ruin my brother’s wedding and impersonate my babysitter. Not to mention you almost destroyed Canterlot and defeated Princess Celestia.” Twilight was frantically pacing, thinking of all the possible outcomes of this situation. None of them being good.
“You worry too much dear, I’m sure your mother will understand after you explain this whole ordeal. Now come, your mother is waiting for us downstairs.” Chrysalis said as she put on her clothes and made her way to the living room. Followed closely by a reluctant Twilight.
Now fully clothed, Twilight and Chrysalis sat on the sofa with Twilight’s mother opposite to them. Not a word had yet to be said.
“So…would someone care to explain how this came to be?” Twilight Velvet asked as she pointed to both Twilight and Chrysalis.
Taking a deep breath, Twilight began her explanation on how she and Chrysalis got together. Starting from how she found her injured and weakened from the battle to how they grew a mutual fondness for each other over the time spent with one another. Eventually ending up in a relationship, no matter how weird it seemed.
Once Twilight finished telling her story of how she and Chrysalis came to be, Twilight Velvet decided to interrogate the Queen of the Changelings sitting on the sofa next to her daughter. Despite the situation, she was calm and collected unlike Twilight who was a bundle nerves.
“Queen...Chrysalis is it?”inquired Twilight Velvet.
“Please, call me Chrysalis. After all we soon might be family,” sniggering as she said this.
“Ok...Chrysalis, might I ask what are your intentions with my daughter? I am a bit hesitant to understand why someone who almost destroyed Canterlot would want to date her subjugator.” Twilight’s mother said, still not seeing why a former villain would want to be in a relationship with their former enemy.
“Well as Twilight said, she found me injured and very weak after our little showdown. I don’t know what possessed her to help me but she took it upon herself to nurse me back to health. I guess forgiveness comes easily to the Elements of Harmony,” she paused for a bit,”well it comes easy for some of them.” Chrysalis remembered how the rainbow maned pony was all for attacking her, Rainbow Dash was it if memory served her right.
“Let us not diverge from the topic at hand, as I was saying, Twilight thought it necessary to offer me help. I flat out refused at first but she wouldn’t stop pestering me and in my weakened state I couldn’t put much of a fight, so I let her take me back to her home.” Chrysalis paused for breath before continuing.
“The first few days with us under the same roof were somewhat...difficult,” Chrysalis said with a hint of awkwardness.
“Difficult doesn’t begin to describe the hell she put me through,” Twilight interjected jokingly once recovering her voice.
“Oh hush, I wasn’t that bad,” Chrysalis lightly swatted Twilight’s arm at that statement.
“Not that bad? Are you kidding me? You practically made me do everything for you. From fluffing your pillow to carrying you to the bathroom,” Twilight exclaimed disbelievingly.
“That’s funny, I recall the bathroom was where we had our first...encounter and I don’t remember it being hell then,” Chrysalis said this with a sly look in her eyes.
“W-Well that was...uh...w-we...I-I,” Twilight was tripping over word she tried to say. She finally settled for a weak “I hate you.”
“Now come love, weren’t you the person who said they loved me with each breath they took,” before Twilight could react, Chryssy placed a soft kiss on her lips effectively silencing her.
Someone clearing their throat broke the two lovebirds from their reverie. Apparently they forgot Twilight’s mother was there with them as well.
“Ah, I appeared to have strayed from our previous conversation,” but before she could continue Twilight Velvet stopped her.
“No, I see no reason for you to continue. I can see that your affection towards Twilight is genuine. I’m just glad she found someone who makes her happy. Although I warn you, Twilight can be a bit eccentric at times.” Chrysalis and Twilight Velvet both laughed at Twilight’s expense who sat as still as a statue.
Twilight Velvet, having digested all of what she had heard, had only one question to ask.
“So...does this mean I should be expecting grandchildren from you?” she asked curiously.
“M-MOM!!!” exclaimed Twilight with her blush back full force. Chrysalis burst out laughing.
“I can tell I’m going to enjoy it here after all.” said Chrysalis followed with even more laughter.
Meanwhile upstairs, a frozen Shining Armor stood long forgotten.
