> What if....? > by Dragonborne Fox > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Spellbound Shenanigans > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Mom!" Called a young gryphon male. His top feathers (the ones forming the bangs of most Gryphons) were a light lavender, almost pinkish. His green eyes matched those of his daddy, who was not a gryphon. Nope. He was a freaking alicorn! And so was his mommy! "Yeah? What is it, son?" Asked his mom, who was a purple alicorn. She was a light purple with a darker purple mane, and her horn was curved slightly inward. Her dark purple wings rested against her sides, and she was in the middle of indulging in a delicious strawberry cake. With a spoon. Because she could. "Why don't I have a brother or sister? I want someone to huggle and look after and all that!" Replied the eager gryphon. His mother nearly choked on the strawberry she just removed off the top of the cake. His dad, who sat on the opposite side of the table, spat out his tea on the newspaper. His eyes went wide with shock. It took all the effort of the purple alicorn to not choke on the strawberry as she drunk her whole glass of water in two seconds. "A.....a sibling?" Asked his dad who had a rather crooked smile. He was trying to not twitch. "Yeah!" Said the eager gryphon before he was tackled by a really good friend of his. This friend was an alicorn as well, she was a lighter purple--almost pinkish, to be more accurate--than his mother, and on the left side of her mane was a brilliant scarlet; the right had an ocean blue, and between these two colors was a modest purple. Her wings shared this pattern, and on her flank was a water droplet and an ember of fire crossing paths to make steam. Her wings were as large as those of her father, whose wings had a brilliant pattern reminiscent of fire. Her right eye was crimson, and the other was oceanic. "Ocean Flame, what're you doing here?" Asked the gryphon. "Mom and Dad are gonna have another baby!" Replied the alicorn. "REALLY?!" Asked the gryphon and his parents, all of whom were slack-jawed. "Yeah! And soon, Breezecatcher will have another friend!" Answered Ocean. Breezecatcher's parents looked at each other, their mouths still hanging open. "I'm gonna play with Ocean! See ya later!" Said Breezecatcher as he and his friend left the one of many side-rooms his parents had. "Um, Yuuki.....how are we going to explain.....uh....your.....um....." Stuttered the green alicorn, who looked like he was about to drop his glass of tea. "That's.....the problem, Nagare.....I don't.....know how we'd....explain what infertility is to a seven-year-old boy...." Yuuki replied, her voice hinting frustration. She was right, how the hell do you explain the concept of infertility to a kid, let alone a child gryphon? The air was heavy as though there were no weaseling out of this fine mess. All was still, and it took almost fifteen whole minutes before they were calm enough to discuss this like adults. "If only you weren't infertile. I still don't understand how you go into heat." Nagare said as he threw the newspaper away. It was nothing but someone getting arrested for drug charges anyway. Not an entire waste of tea. "At least there aren't pestering children hearing us." Yuuki replied, rolling her eyes. "If only we could find..." Her face went from shocked to energetic, and Nagare raised an eyebrow as a twinkle shined in Yuuki's eyes. "I GOT IT!" Shouted the purple mare as she slammed her hooves onto the table. The empty plate that once held the cake clattered as vibrations shook the table briefly. "That being?" Asked Nagare, who was puzzled. "We get help from Twilight Sparkle! She'll know a way around this!" Yuuki beamed with a huge smile. "Sounds interesting. Fair enough. What are we waiting for? Let's not waste time!" Nagare said, standing up on all fours. ____ Twilight was busy sorting books again in her ever-growing library. This went here, that went over on that shelf, ohh this book should be in the basement! Just another average day in Canterlot Castle--if a blinding flash of emerald light didn't cause her to fall off the step-ladder. A waterfall of books landed on top of the Alicorn of Magic, which she crawled out of and looked at the source of the emerald light. The bearers of Wind and Lightning were standing in the exact spot where the flash had occurred. The books were picked up and resorted by the visitors as Twilight dusted herself off and readjusted the step-ladder. "A rather rude way to enter, I dare say." Twilight said as she eyed the alicorns. "We didn't know you'd be sorting books at this time. I think the step-ladder was offended." Yuuki said. "Well, when isn't it new? So, why're you two here, exactly? And where's your armor?" Asked Twilight. "About that, we only wear it when an issue is at hoof like the normal natural disasters and, of course, the Shadow and such. This is an issue that....doesn't require the armor." Yuuki answered, her eyes nervously darting left and right. "This issue being...?" Said Twilight, who raised an eyebrow. "Well....Breezecatcher wants a sibling. But Yuuki's infertile. We came here for....a way around that." Nagare admitted, his ears hanging low. "Say what?!" Twilight gaped, her eyes wide. "I'm not sure there's a spell for that!" "You're an alicorn. Who says you can't help a friend or two?" Yuuki replied, smiling nervously. "There's that. I suppose it couldn't hurt. But this library is so huge it'd take a while to find the right book. Just sit at that table over there." Twilight said before starting to search through the books. ____ "I found the book!" Twilight said as she flew down to the her waiting friends, who were busy chatting with a guard that did not know why they were there. "Really?!" Yuuki beamed with a smile. "Yes, but it's a rather...complex process." Twilight said. "We would ask you to get on with it if this guard didn't poke me in the shoulder." Nagare stated, pointing to a tan guard with a two-tone blue mane. "Flash Sentry, please let them be. They came here for my help." Twilight said to the guard. "Yes, Your Majesty!" Replied Flash, who immediately returned to his post on the double. "Where's Spike?" Yuuki asked. A tall purple dragon with a light green underbelly and cheek-scale-tufts stood behind Nagare. "Right here." Spike answered. "Someone's grown!" Yuuki said in shock, ears perked to high heaven. "Ten years sure is a long time!" Spike cheered, small wings visible on his back. "Spike, I need you to get me a few things. This book asks for whistleroot, a unicorn horn made of stone, and some emeralds and amethysts." Twilight said, looking at her dragon assistant. "Why?" Asked Spike, who crossed his arms in confusion. "It's...a semi-personal issue. Now, get going. And take a guard or two with you." Twilight answered. "Okay." Spike said as he left. "Emeralds and amethysts?" Asked the couple. "Well...this book said to get gemstones that best matched the coat colors of the clients involved. The horn is self-explanatory, and the whistleroot is.... well....something you ingest, Yuuki." Twilight stammered. "Whistleroot?" Asked Yuuki. "Let's just say...once the ingredients arrive, you eat the whistleroot. The ingredients then disappear and....you have yourself a foal. But this book also asks for a few more things, and it requires you both." Answered Twilight as both of the alicorns looked at her attentively. "I need a few feathers from your wings as well as strands of your manes." Both alicorns nodded, and they removed the strands and feathers before putting them in a little tray on the table. "Now, before we continue on with the...err...ritual, would pregnancy occur as it normally otherwise would?" Asked Yuuki. "If you mean eleven months, cramps, and cravings, yes. But all pregnancies vary in some way." Twilight answered. "The pregnancy might fail and either be a miscarriage, stillbirth, or a forced abortion. It might be overdue or two days early minimum. But according to this book a failure has never occurred before." Yuuki nodded as a smile crept on her face. "Does whistleroot taste good?" "It...really depends on the pony eating the whistleroot. Taste buds vary. You have to eat it all as I cast the spell." Twilight replied. ____ "I got everything!" Spike said as he carried a bucket with the gems, stone horn, and a whistleroot flower. "Thanks, Spike. Leave the bucket there. Your dinner is in your room, as always." Twilight said. Spike left, and Yuuki was sitting on the floor. Nagare took out the whistleroot flower and put the hair strands and feathers in the bucket. The flower had seven petals, each a different color of the rainbow. The center of the flower was pure white and the stem was green with whistle-shaped roots. "He actually got a whole whistleroot intact?" Twilight asked. "Seems like." Nagare said as he gave Yuuki the flower. "I almost feel bad for eating such a pretty flower. It looks like it's begging to live. But it must be done, sadly." Yuuki said. "Don't worry, they're so plentiful they're considered weeds." Twilight replied. "Might as well give Tenmei a weed garden." Yuuki sneered with a bright smile. "The roots are the hardest to chew, so I suggest eating those first." Twilight said as Yuuki stuffed the whole thing in her mouth, leaving not one speck of pollen behind. Twilight's horn began flaring as a purple aura encased the ingredients and her client. One by one, each ingredient started to disappear as the spell dragged on. Yuuki kept chewing her plant-meal as the roots became mush. The plant tasted like marshmallows and melted chocolate. If only the taste of graham crackers were present and then it would be pure bliss. Who couldn't resist a s'more every now and then? Yuuki timed her chewing so she'd swallow right as Twilight wrapped up the spell, the bucket now empty as a result. "How do you feel?" Twilight asked. "The same as always. But you did say the spell never failed and the pregnancy would go on as normal." Yuuki answered. "Yes, I did. And one more thing: When you're pregnant from a cause like this, you can't fly or use magic. Keep this in mind." Twilight said. "Will do." Yuuki said before another emerald flash flooded the room. When the flash was over, neither Yuuki nor Nagare were in the library. ____ Six months passed since the spell was first cast, and Yuuki's stomach had enlarged quite a bit. Hell, it got so big she looked like she was nine months along! And she got the really odd craving of s'mores covered in peanut butter and mozzarella cheese. With seaweed on top. All of that in a plate of rice. It made Tenmei shiver every time he heard about it, and it did not help him one bit because he was lactose intolerant! It was a good thing she always cleaned her plate and muzzle after every meal, because after she had a big meal, she tended to fall asleep and not pester her mate and friends about the damn cheese. It had to be the damn cheese! "Okay Nagare, spill the beans. How did Yuuki get pregnant?" Tenmei asked as he cleaned his glasses. "The cheese gets to you, huh? Koto's picked up a craving for...firewood." Rekka stated. "Firewood?! The he--nevermind...." Tenmei replied, rolling his eyes as he put his now-clean glasses back on. First time she was pregnant she demanded salty water (from the ocean, mind you) left, right, and sideways. With heaps of kelp. "We went to Twilight Sparkle, and she used a spell." Nagare said. "What kind of spell?" Tenmei asked. "A complex one." Nagare answered. "Hard to explain." "Let me guess: whistleroot." Tenmei said. He'd noticed Yuuki started keeping them all the time nowadays. "Yes." Nagare said in defeat. "Go easy on him, Tenmei. I bet ten bits it was Breezecatcher who started it." Rekka said. "Fine." Tenmei said. "But no more cheese!" "Alright, alright. I'll keep the cheese away from you if Yuuki doesn't kick my flank for doing so." Nagare sighed. "She been getting more aggressive about the damn cheese?" Asked Rekka. "She HAS to have it. Thank Celestia she cannot use magic for the time being." Nagare answered, ears flat as can be. The thought of Yuuki electrocuting him and all those other punishments she'd give terrified, well, everyone. Nope, let's not speak of those punishments! "Rekka! We're out of firewood!" Koto complained as she walked in. "Oh horseapples. I'll get some more." Rekka said before he teleported out in a crimson flash. How does she eat firewood without puking?! Thought Tenmei, who looked puzzled. ____ "Mister....uh.....um...." Said a doctor. "Just call me Nagare." Sighed the green alicorn. He was pacing about here and there in anxiety. What if the spell failed threefold? "Alrighty then. Your wife and twin foals are perfectly fine, though your wife....is cursing." Replied the doctor. "Come inside." The door was opened, and Nagare stepped inside. Yuuki looked as though she were drugged and drunk out of her mind, and the doctor certainly was right about her cursing, but nopony could blame her. "Nagare! Get your green ass in here!" Yuuki said, her voice slurred as she pointed a hoof accusingly at her mate. She then passed out onto the bed. "What kind of drugs was she given?" Asked Nagare as he trotted toward the unconscious Yuuki. "Anesthesia. Nothing out of the bounds." Answered the doctor. The green alicorn looked in the crib next to the bed. There was a dark purple colt with a horn, wings, and a really short lime green and amethyst striped mane, the lime being curled. His eyes were emerald green. Next to him was a light green filly with a darker green and lighter purple striped mane, the purple parts of which were curled like the wind. She had Yuuki's purple eyes. Both were sleepy-eyed. "The colt was already named Thunder Gust. What will you name the filly?" Asked the doctor. "Lightning Gale." Replied Nagare with a smile. > Whistleroot and The Weed Garden > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "So, they had twins?" Tenmei asked, raising an eyebrow. "Yeah. A colt and a filly. They look strangely identical not only to each other, but to their parents as well." Rekka said with a smile. "As for Koto, she had triplets." "I still don't get why she craved firewood!" Tenmei replied, slamming his left hoof onto the table. "Neither do I, sadly. But the foals are all ok." Rekka said, tilting his head. Tenmei sighed before looking at his friend. "I wish I could have a foal of my own. Why am I getting mad again?" "Pardon?" Asked Rekka, his wings shifting slightly. "I want to have a foal of my own. You can run around announcing to the whole bucking world I envy you!" Tenmei answered, his ears against his head. "I'm.....I'm not really sure how to help you there, pal. The best I can say is, well, stick to what you know best." Rekka sighed as he patted his friend on the back with a reassuring hoof. Tenmei sighed and looked at his friend with a smile. "Thanks." "Anytime." Rekka said, smiling back. ____ "So, you had twins?" Asked Koto, who had finished putting the triplets she had to sleep. "Yeah. You were right, it was painful as buck!" Yuuki answered as she was cleaning her twins. The room they were standing in was pretty much an all-purpose nursery. "I wonder why I craved firewood." Koto said. "Puh-lease, I craved s'mores, peanut butter, mozzarella cheese that was preferably melted, seaweed, and rice all on the same plate!" Yuuki stammered. "Damn, girl!" Koto almost yelled. "Yes. You should've seen Tenmei bitch." Yuuki replied. "It was always about the cheese." "The cheese usually scares him off. It's worse if you fling it in his face." Koto giggled, holding a hoof to her mouth. "At least now I know a curve-ball around my infertility." Yuuki said, holding a hoof to the sky. "I wonder what Mikarya would do when she finds out." Koto smiled. "I don't know. The worst is her making a funny face." Yuuki giggled. "I know, right?" Koto chuckled. ____ "How'd she get around her infertility again?" Asked Mikarya, who was looking at the whistleroot garden that was separated from all the other gardens in the massive greenhouse. "See those plants in that glass cage? The rainbow flowers?" Tenmei said, pointing a hoof towards the vast amounts of whistleroot. "I am looking right at them. What do they have to do with it?" Replied Mikarya, who looked puzzled. "There's a spell Twilight Sparkle has that revolves around those flowers. It's a wacky sort of pregnancy spell." Answered Tenmei. "I see." Mikarya nodded. "Where'd she find all those flowers?" "They're considered weeds, which is why they're so damn plentiful." Tenmei replied. "And for some reason, she ran around craving cheese left, right, and bucking sideways!" "Cheese?" Asked Mikarya, who raised one eyebrow and lowered the other. "Yes. Cheese. Every damn time she brought it up I ran to the bathroom." Tenmei shuddered, all his hairs standing on end. "I take it you're lactose intolerant?" Said Mikarya. "Yes." Tenmei solemnly nodded. "Who did what to a lactose intolerance?" Misaki asked as she walked into the greenhouse. 01 was next to her. "It's a long story." Mikarya answered. ____ "So, these rainbow flowers are weeds with some odd magical properties?" 01 asked. "Yes. In other words, Yuuki's loophole around her infertility." Mikarya answered. "Good thing I have a book titled 'Magical Weeds of Equestria.'" Misaki said, levitating said book in the air next to her. She opened it and flipped through the pages until she reached the 'W' section. Wildtongue, Wildraisan, whistletongue..... "Found it." Misaki said as she pointed a hoof at the 'Whistleroot' section. "Whistleroot, a highly plentiful, beautiful, and yet parasitic plant. It feeds off the nutrients of other plants by tangling its roots with those of its neighbors and literally draining the life of said neighbors. It is easily identified by its multicolored petals, white center, and whistle-shaped roots which gave the plant its name. However, this plant has been the most commonly used plant-based ingredient in rituals and potions due to its various uses in the realm of magic and weed-like nature. The most common examples of uses regarding this plant include medicine, arcane magic, and aiding in pregnancy. Due to its magical properties, its best to keep this plant around, especially if you are a unicorn, alicorn, or zebra; as zebrakind has made some great medical boons using this plant alone." "Damn. So we have ourselves a lifetime of medicine if we use these things correctly." Tenmei said. "It would seem so." 01 replied. > Babysitting > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "So, whose turn is it to foal-sit?" Asked Nagare. He and the other Nature bearers were sitting at a round table. They were playing cards. "I dunno. I did that yesterday." Rekka replied. He had two cards, both of which were face-down on the table. "Foal-sitting sure makes you tired, huh?" Tenmei chimed. He had three cards in one hoof and a drink in the other. "Yes it does. Especially during feeding time!" Yuuki called. She had a royal flush just waiting to be played. "I know, right?" Koto cheered. She had four cards, one of each suite and they were all five's. In short, four-of-a-kind. "What is this, a bet on who foal-sits or strip poker?" Nagare chuckled. "I forgot. What were we talking about again?" Asked Rekka, who held a hoof to his muzzle in confusion. "I dunno." Tenmei answered. "Foal-sitting?" "Yeah! Loser gets to foal-sit!" Yuuki chimed with a huge smile. "Really? Who loses?" Koto said as she laid down her cards for all to see. "Four-of-a-kind? Really?" Rekka asked as he flipped his cards over: two queens. "Bitch, please." Tenmei said as he revealed two kings and a jack. Nagare blew a raspberry as he revealed a king, a queen, and a jack. "YOU ALL LOSE!" Yuuki bellowed as she revealed her royal flush. "A ROYAL FLUSH?!" Shrieked everyone else as they looked at Yuuki, who had a huge grin on her muzzle. "Looks like I had the losing hand." Koto sighed as she picked up her glass of apple cider. ____ "Mommy, why are you just blue?" Asked Water Drop, who was strangely enough a flaming red filly with blue eyes. She was a unicorn. "It runs in my family. Why do you ask?" Answered Koto with a smile. "Does it also explain why Daddy's red?" Asked Ember Feather, a blue Pegasus colt with red eyes. "Yes, it does. Many, many ponies said we were never meant to be. I don't give a hoot what they say--I can love whoever I wish, and if they don't like it, they can deal with it." Replied Koto, whose smile dropped slightly. "Why'd they say that?" Asked Mist Wisp, an alicorn filly with a mist-grey body and a red mane. "Ever seen me kissing your daddy in public, only for a stallion or two to object?" Asked Koto, to which the triplets nodded. "The ponies who pick on me because I went and married your daddy keep on saying 'fire and water is bad!' left and right. Some stallions began hitting on me in the worst display they could, only to be detained by the Royal Guards." "Really?! They're a bunch of bad ponies!" Cried Mist. "Yeah! Why don't they like somepony else's choice?!" Wailed Water. "I bet they don't have a mare of their own!" Chimed Ember. Koto looked at Ember with surprise. She did not expect a colt that young to make that comment about a pony he knew very little about. Then again, he was probably right. The stallions who made fun of her were most likely envious. "Where's Mommy?" Cried Thunder Gust. "She had an errand to do. Let me just say it involves the thunderclouds." Answered Koto. "Why say just that?" Asked Lightning Gale. "It's a really difficult process to explain. It is especially true for me, since I don't specialize in thunderclouds." Answered Koto again. "But you specialize in weather!" Ember pointed out. "True, but rain clouds and thunderclouds are entirely separate entities." Koto replied. "What will I specialize in when I grow up?" Asked Water. "That, I cannot say. You make your own choices when you're older. And if you can't make your own choices, we'll help." Koto smiled. "I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!" Called Yuuki as she walked into the playroom. Thunder and Lightning immediately ran to her and hugged her forelegs, which for some reason were black. "Mommy, what happened?!" Cried the twins as they looked at their mother's legs, all of which were black, burnt, and smelled worse than burnt popcorn. "A thunderstorm and a hurricane decided to join forces....your dad had to stop it all by himself because the storm threw me everywhere. The pain in my legs is gone, but my wings....are broken for a while." Yuuki sighed in defeat, noticing Koto going wide-eyed as she saw the bandages that held her wings to her body. "Was anypony besides yourself hurt?!" Koto cried, holding a hoof over her mouth. "No, everypony else remained unscathed. Rainbow Dash got them out of there faster than you can say 'damn, someone's getting their flank kicked!'" Yuuki answered. "Really?" Asked Koto. "She boasts about being the fastest flier in Equestria for a reason. Why else is her talent a Sonic Rainboom?" Replied Yuuki. "You need a bath!" Koto said. "Y'think?" Yuuki chimed. > Storytime! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Today, it was Misaki's turn to foal-sit. Her silver-and-gold wings were folded against her sides and her claws hidden under her body (her cyborg arm was REALLY flexible) as she watched the foals play with balls, dolls, and, on occasion, TV-girl. Normally, their parents (or Tenmei depending on what happened) would foal-sit, but today they had to stop rampant Q-hybrids who were pissed off. There was the occasional arguing amongst the foals, but telekinesis easily separated them and stopped the whole ordeal before it went for the worse. Eventually, Water Drop came up to Misaki and-- "Auntie Misaki?" Asked Water Drop. "Yes?" Replied Misaki. The other foals gathered around Misaki. "I want a story." Said Water Drop. "So do we!" Said the other foals. "A story?" Misaki asked. "I see. So, what shall it be today?" "About how you became an alicorn!" Answered the foals. Misaki couldn't help but chuckle. "Oh, where to begin..." ____ "So, that explains your foreleg being a hunk of metal?" Asked Water Drop. "Yes. At least the bad ponies I told you about are gone." Answered Misaki. "Are there more stories like that?!" Asked Ember. "In some aspects, yes. Others, no." Replied Misaki. "How're the kids doing?" Called Yuuki as she walked in the playroom again. "They're doing marvelous." Misaki answered. "Alright. No fights or anything?" Asked Yuuki. "Nope." Replied Misaki, who smiled as TV-girl clambered onto her back. "As long as everypony gets along." Yuuki smiled. "I think we should introduce them to somepony." Misaki said. "You can't mean--" Yuuki stammered. Misaki nodded. "But that will have to wait until tomorrow." "Alrighty then." Yuuki replied. ____ "So, the foals were told about me and they see me as iffy?" Saki asked. Yuuki nodded. "Blame Misaki." "I see." Saki nodded. She was busy brushing her mane and tail. "You kinda remind me of a wingless, blue Celestia." Yuuki chuckled. "And I am still a blank-flank." Saki pointed out. "Life here is satisfying." "Yes it is." Yuuki agreed with a smile. Who wouldn't agree? "And without my....err.....annoying bundle running around asking me to do everything in sight, it's much better." Saki sighed. "You talking chores, or every damn man in sight?" Yuuki asked. "Both. Preferably at the same time while I would be doing a handstand." Saki answered. "DAMN!" "I know. And because of him, I am....what say you....awkward around children." Saki sighed as she put the hairbrush away. "I think he hung out with Maki and Baki WAYYYYY to much." Yuuki scowled. "You think? I hope Discord doesn't bring him here to--" "MOMMY! WHERE WERE YOU ALL THIS TIME?!" Shouted little Jaki. "DISCORD! GET OVER HERE!!" Shouted Yuuki. "Help me." Saki said, ears flat and jaw dropping. ____ "So, I should not have brought Jaki here?" Discord asked. "Yes. Saki's....been wanting to.....err.....dole out excessive disciplinary measures. But once you SEE how he was brought up and by whom, you'll understand why." Yuuki said Fast-forward five minutes later. "Goodness gracious! Is there another way to describe them?!" Discord shrieked, which caused it to start raining chocolate milk. "Sadly, no. I wish there was. Please, send Jaki back to the reform center." Yuuki said. "I cannot return him, but what I can do is turn him to stone and put him on the Unicornus Petrificus." Discord answered before doing just what he said he'd do and then returning in five seconds. The rain of chocolate milk stopped. "Thank you." Yuuki said before teleporting. ____ "Now, little foals. Am I still a bad pony?" Asked Saki. "No. It just took a while for us to get it." Replied the foals. Saki nodded with a smile and continued to watch them play. > Saki and the Crazyponies > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Yes. Jaki was a spoiled brat. Who demanded I molest him in some way." Saki sighed, eyes scrunched shut and a bead of sweat on her face. "Never knew they went lower than Sombra." Tenmei replied. "If it makes you feel any better, Koto and I were drunk off our asses one night." Rekka chuckled, ears flat as he blushed a bright pink. "I think you know how drunks tend to act." Koto giggled as she darted her eyes left and right. She was trying to avoid eye contact. "Nagare and I....well, we argued....and Applejack told us to shut up and make out." Yuuki said, purposely covering her face with her mane. Nagare hid behind Yuuki like she was some sort of meat-shield. Tenmei started sweating like a madman in a sauna. He blushed furiously and his ears were flat. His forelegs were shaky and so was his mouth. It did not help at all that everyone's eyes were on him. Son of a biscuit. He thought. I hope I don't get my ass murdered over this. "Sometime this year would be nice." Everypony else said impatiently, each individual voice having gotten over their owners' shame. "I...slept with two mares and a stallion." Tenmei stuttered. "Which mares and stallion?" The prying ponies asked. "01, Mikarya, and Misaki....." Tenmei answered as his breath hastened. "I say keep sleeping with them. Ya never know. One of them might be pregnant by now!" Rekka cheered with a big smile. "I wonder what the foals would look like!" Koto chimed. "Dude! Not every mare gets pregnant the first damn time!" Yuuki pointed out with a smile. "She has a point. DOOOOO EEEEEEET." Nagare hollered in a happy tone, pointing a hoof at Tenmei. When did he switch with Pinkie Pie again? Tenmei's eyes were as big as dinner plates, just barely fitting behind his glasses. He was...being cheered for having an orgy? "R-Really?" He asked, to which his friends nodded. "He needs a little more spice in the funfests." Saki said before she suddenly hoisted Tenmei off the ground and gave him a kiss smack on the lips. And then that was when more questionable acts followed. Not just between them, mind you, but everyone else (including Misaki, Mikarya, and 01, who were caught up in chess before) in the room. Let's skip time again to the next day. After breakfast. With Tenmei and his now-expanded harem. They were in a hot tub. "This is a good day today..." Sighed Saki, her forelegs on the rims of the hot tub as she rested her chest on the side. "So calm..." Misaki said as she floated in the center stomach-side up. She looked like she was drunk off her ass again. 01 breathed deeply as he enjoyed a drink of royal liquor. It was the taste of fruit punch with the bitter tang of alcohol. Mikarya's head was the only thing above the water. She smiled deeply as she repositioned a wet rag on her head just behind her horn. Where was Tenmei? He was playing shark with the others, but he made sure to wait until 01 finished his drink. "U-uwaaaaaooo!" 01 howled as something poked him in the rear. "A-aaahhhhhhhh!" Mikarya wailed, exposing her wet torso as she panted heavily. "Uhaaaaaaaaiiiii!" Misaki caterwauled as she was suddenly flipped over in the water with a loud splash. "What the- haawooooooohhh!" Saki moaned as she suddenly fell into the water. A few seconds later, she re-emerged panting like a dog. Tenmei emerged from the water shortly after, and he started hugging everypony as they hugged back and they laughed it away. Good times, good times.
