- >Late night at Golden Oak Library.
- >You were getting ready for bed, completely worn out from a day in your workshop.
- >Several ponies needed "Founder's Day Festival" stands built, and they came right to you.
- >You had a certain reputation for quality.
- >Twilight was currently hanging over the side of the bed, upside down with wings and hair hanging limp.
- >She also appeared annoyed, for some reason.
- "Twilight...what are you doing?"
- >"Thinking."
- >You arched an eyebrow.
- "Upside down?"
- >"I do all of my best thinking when all the blood is rushing to my head." The mare huffed, tone thick with sarcasm.
- >One of her legs was sticking high into the air.
- >The bait was too easy, you took it.
- >Grabbing it, you held the mare high.
- >She flared her wings in momentary panic at the sudden lift, then resumed being grumpy.
- "C'mon hun, I know when something's wrong. Wanna talk?"
- >Twilight instead started wiggling in your grip.
- >"Leggo!"
- "Nope."
- >Instead, your other hand went to her belly, and started tickling.
- >She yelped, a barking laugh forcing its way out before she forced herself to NOT laugh.
- >Her face was tensing from the need, you could see it in her eyes.
- "Come on, laugh~!" You taunted. "I'll stop if you do!"
- >The effect was immediate.
- >She lost it completely, laughing hard and loud.
- >You kept up the 'assault', giggling like a fool as tears streamed out of her eyes.
- >"W-W-Waaaaaait! Ano-hahahahaha-Anon, stahahahaahahahah~!"
- "Say uncle!"
- >"N-n-never!"
- >Your hands left her belly for a moment, letting her catch her breath.
- >The last few giggles were making their way out as well.
- >...which is when you switched targets, now tickling the base of the very hoof you had captive.
- >The loud laughter started again, Twilight losing control completely.
- >She couldn't even kick you away, hanging like she was.
- >"U-u-unchahahaha! UNCLE!" The mare cried, and you almost immediately relented.
- >You then dropped her gently on the bed, waiting for her to catch her breath.
- >She panted heavily, shoulders heaving as she greedily took in large gulps of air.
- >Her wings beat in time with her gasps, hanging almost limp as she regained control of herself.
- >She looked at you, ears flat against her skull.
- >"That...that wasn't fair, Anon!"
- "Why not, princess?"
- >Twilight flushed.
- >"You know I hate that term..."
- >You just chuckled in return.
- >Twilight sighed, and you sat on the bed with her.
- >Usually a tickle session cheers her up.
- "Twilight, what's wrong?" You asked, now legitimately concerned.
- >"I'm just feeling a little depressed."
- >You pulled her into your lap.
- >"I've hit a wall with my research. Anything I do to this special spell now is...uncharted territory."
- "What's wrong with some experimentation?" You asked, fully aware of the mare's love for that.
- >Twilight heaved a heavy sigh.
- >"Well...one of two things could happen."
- "Best case scenario?"
- >"Best case is that I'll be pregnant with your foal, Anon. Any time of year, doesn't need to be estrus...as long as we have sex within twenty-four hours, it'll take."
- >You nodded, both excited and a little scared.
- >Then there was the other side of the spectrum.
- "And...and if you cast it wrong?"
- >"If I cast it wrong, it could leave me completely barren for the rest of my life."
- "Then..."
- >Your mouth was suddenly very dry.
- >Russian Roulette, except it wasn't your life on the line: It was your kid's.
- >You honestly wish she had just told you that it had a 50/50 chance of killing you instead.
- "Twi...just keep doing some research. I...can't make a decision like that right now."
- >"I didn't expect you to." She replied. "We'd both be stupid to try the spell right now, I haven't exhausted *every* resource."
- "Also...I'm always open to adoption, if it comes down to it."
- >"So am I, but...I'd rather try this first."
- "Of course, love."
- >Twilight put her head in her hooves, sighing.
- >You were comfortingly rubbing her back, watching her tail sway idly to and fro.
- >"I'm...going to sleep, Anon."
- >She turned around to give you a loving kiss on the lips, holding it there for a long while.
- >Eventually she broke off softly, her glittering amethyst eyes looking deeply into your own.
- >"I know I say it all the time, but...I love you."
- "I love you too, Twi. With every fiber of my being."
- >The mare laid down on her side and covered herself with her quilt.
- >You didn't go to bed just yet.
- >Your nerves were out of control, too jittery to sleep.
- >Heading downstairs, you went into your workshop.
- >It was still early into the night, and there was nothing like a little physical labor to keep your mind off of things.
- ---
- >You managed to finish up three stands within the next two hours.
- >They just needed a coat of paint and some personalization, though the ponies in question could do that themselves.
- >You hopped into the shower, washing the sweat off of you.
- >A very, very tiny part of you was disappointed you didn't take the shot right now to get Twilight pregnant.
- >The overwhelming majority of your conscience was content to wait, though.
- >Stepping out a moment later, you dried off and put a pair of boxers on.
- >You then joined your marefriend in bed, pulling her close.
- >Twilight grunted unhappily at being moved, but quieted down when she felt your warmth on her back.
- >She then turned, pulling her chest against yours.
- >You stroked a rogue hair out of her face, looking at your sleeping angel.
- >She snoozed quietly, though there had been once or twice you had caught her loudly snoring.
- >Chuckling at the memory, you gave the tip of her horn a quick kiss.
- >It sparked as a chill went down her spine, visible as a shiver.
- >The mare slept through it though, pulling you closer for warmth.
- >You pulled your thicker quilt over the two of you, hers long forgotten at the foot of the bed.
- >Yeah, you were happy with waiting.
- >It simply wasn't worth risking her health and happiness.
- >Giving the mare one last kiss on the forehead, you joined her in dreamland.
