Ascentia and Twilight stumbled through the front door sometime after 2AM. Both giddy from Twilight's reinstatement and exhausted from the party and the trip home, the two of them stumbled into the kitchen and flopped down into the chairs at the table.

"The look on everyone's face when you dragged me up on stage with you," Ascentia laughed, "It was like someone had tazered them in the balls!"

"I know! It was... it was amazing! Hilarious!" Twilight giggled, "Oh goodness!"

Ascentia laughed and flicked the light on, and in an instant the mood changed. The light's angle made her scars stand out against her skin, and in Twilight's over-tired state she was struck with guilt at the sight of them.

She fidgeted slightly, not looking at her wife and trying to calm herself. Twilight exhaled, the stab of guilt in her gut becoming more painful.

"Kitten..."

Ascentia, not catching on to her distress, smiled and reached her arms up, "C'mere," she said cutely, "Kitten wants to snuggle!"

"...Okay," Twilight managed to get up, going over and giving her a hug. She shook a little, trying to relax in the comforting grip.

Ascentia giggled, until she felt Twilight shaking. Mewling in confusion, she lifted her head and pouted, "What's wrong? Why are you all shaky?"

"I... it's just... Kitten, I'm sorry..." Twilight nuzzled into her neck, breathing shakily.

"Sorry for wha... oh..." Ascentia snuggled her close, pulling Twilight into her lap, "Twilight... I've told you a thousand times. I forgive you..." she whispered, gently rocking her.

The two words that Twilight heard over the years struck her like never before. While she stopped shaking, her thoughts were rampant.

For a long time, Twilight had used those words as some kind of a justification for her actions. Be it conscious or subconscious. Along with that, they also became the very words she dreaded to hear. A clear indication of Ascentia's less-than-healthy attachment to her and refusal to admit something was wrong. The very words that comforted yet scared her at the same time.

There was a time Twilight hoped never to hear them again. To finally come to the day that Ascentia would either refuse to say them or attach "not" to the phrase. A time when she wanted to set herself free.

But now, they floated to her ears, feeling a lot less like they did before. Twilight let out a soft sigh, relaxing a bit more against Ascentia's form. It was, as she could tell, the first time it felt genuine. The first time she felt actually deserving of them.

"...Thank you," Twilight murmured, closing her eyes, "I never thought I'd be so happy to hear you say that."

Ascentia kissed her cheek, rocking Twilight back and forth like she often did with Sunrise, "I mean it," she assured her, "I mean, christ. I've killed twenty people now because they wanted to hurt you."

Twilight shuddered at that, but otherwise moved on, "I don't think I'll ever understand why you would put up with me..."

Ascentia pulled back slightly, "Why wouldn't I? You're my wife, sweetheart. I love you," she kissed her forehead.

"I love you, too," Twlight kissed her cheek, "You know... if our love and marriage could survive all of that, I think we really have a fighting chance at this being forever."

Ascentia smiled and nodded, "Mmhmm. Now, Twilight... I want you to do something important for me."

Twilight looked at her, "Huh? What do you mean?"

"All that crap from before, the abuse, the rape, breaking up, all of it," Ascentia said firmly, "I want you to forget it. As far as we're concerned, it never happened."

Looking at her with wide eyes, Twilight wasn't sure how to respond. "...What?"

"It never happened," Ascentia repeated, "We never bring it up again, there's no more sinking back into your shell when you look at my scars, there's no more letting the townspeople get to you. Tabloid gossip is just tabloid gossip."

"I..." Twilight opened her mouth to try saying something, but had no response.

"What's wrong?" Ascentia asked, nuzzling her cheek.

"Nothing, I just... that's a lot to take in," Twilight admitted, "I-I'm conflicted."

"What's there to be conflicted about?" Ascentia asked, "I don't want to keep dwelling on all of this, and I know you don't either."

"Of course," Twilight agreed, "I guess what I mean is, I can't just pretend it never happened."

"Why not?" Ascentia asked, kissing her cheek.

"Kitten, you know you can't just pretend like bad things in the past never happened. I don't want to dwell on it, but I can't just forget about it. That's impossible," Twilight explained, "But if it does make you feel better, we won't talk about it like that."

"That's what I meant," Ascentia said softly, "No more talking about it. It's done. It's over. It's not important anymore."

Twilight exhaled again, nodding, "Okay. I'll just keep it between me and my therapist."

"Thank you," Ascentia smiled, kissing Twilight's cheek, "I want us to be a happy couple from now on. No more drama. No more hospitals..."

"Me too... I want us to be happy," Twilight kissed her cheek too, "I want to be a family with you and Sunny again."

Ascentia smiled and pulled her in for a brief kiss, before she pulled back and smiled warmly at Twilight, the light overhead making the glitter in her hair sparkle.

"...Let's have another baby."

Eyes going wide, Twilight felt her heart swell and burst, to which she smiled, "You now what? Great idea. Let's do it!"

Ascentia grinned and squeezed Twilight's waist, settling the smaller woman more comfortably in her lap, "With who, though? Sunny's donor was completely anonymous. Do you want to just do that again?"

"...Well, that's a good question..." Twilight said thoughtfully, "And if you think about it, we actually do have our own sperm donor right at home. How about that?"

"I dunno. Think about how that'd look to Sunny?" Ascentia giggled, "Sorry Sunny, your donor was some anonymous tool, and your sister's was someone very close to us."

At this, Twilight's smile faded a little more, to which she pulled back a bit, "Ascentia.... there's... actually something I need to tell you about that."

Ascentia's smile fell, and was replaced with a look of worry, "What? Is something wrong?"

"No, not wrong, just..." Twilight looked downward, "The thing is... Sunrise's donor actually isn't anonymous. I know... who the father actually is."

Ascentia looked surprise, "Really? Do... do I want to know? Or is Sunny's father Shining Armor?"

"Yes, I want you to know because-what?! S-Shining Armor?!" Twilight balked in shock, "No! No, he isn't!"

Ascentia giggled, "I figured as much. Alright sweetheart. Who is it?"

"...Well, Sunrise's father is actually... Spike," Twilight stood up from her lap, pacing a little bit.

"Spike? That buddy you tried to bang on our road trip?" Ascentia asked, raising an eyebrow.

Twilight blushed and nodded, "Yes, that same Spike. When I went to the facility, I looked through donors, and I found that he donated his sperm. It surprised me... And I... I took it. I used his sperm."

Ascentia sat back. She'd never really known Spike all that well, but Twilight talked about him all the time. Ascentia had even gone through the effort to drive her all the way to Canterlot to go see him during her Dusk phase. They'd met, but hadn't spoken since then, not even when he flew in for their wedding.

"Wow... why'd you do it?" she asked.

"Because..." Twilight managed to turn to face her, "I suddenly realized I didn't want some stranger being the father. I know, that's pretty dumb since you and I are Sunny's mothers in everything but combined blood. But I just.. you see, Spike is really... he's the only guy I trust that much, the only guy I love, outside my brother and father. He means so much to me, and I just saw this chance to make a special connection. I wanted our baby to be from someone I loved and trusted."

Ascentia nodded, "I get it... really I do... I remember you wanted to go down to Canterlot and have sex with him and you chickened out at the last second..."

Ascentia pressed her fingers together and exhaled.

"Who'd be getting impregnated by Rainbow?" she asked softly.

Twilight thought for a few moments, biting her lip, then looked at her wife, "...I think you should."

"With how much they've been using me, I'd be surprisd if I wasn't already," Ascentia giggled, "Okay. Explain to me how this is fair. I get to have sex with my donor, but you didn't get to have sex with your's?"

Opening her mouth to respond, Twilight bit her lip, then giggled, "That's true, isn't it? Not going to lie, I still think about it sometimes..."

Ascentia giggled, "He was a cute kid. Maybe you ought to give him a ring."

"You know what? You're right. It's been a couple months since our last e-mail exchange... I'm going to call him, maybe arrange a little get-together," Twilight smiled.

"Bow chicka wow wow," Ascentia smirked, doing a little dance in her seat.

"Hey!" Twilight stuck her tongue out, laughing, "Don't make me throw a pie in your face!"

"This house has no-"

"What are you guys doing down here?" Rainbow asked as she came down, clad only in a pair of tight shorts as she rubbed her eyes tiredly, "S'good thing tomorrow's Saturday, otherwise I'd be pissed..."

"Sorry, Rainbow..." Twilight sweatdropped and smiled sheepishly, "We just got back a little while ago and didn't exactly go to bed. Don't worry, we'll go turn in soon."

"You okay?" Ascentia asked with a giggle.

"Yeah... just tired..."

"We'll talk in the morning. Something kinda important, alright?" Ascentia asked.

"Blowjob first, then we talk," Rainbow grumbled, heading back upstairs.

"You got it," Ascentia called after her.

"At least she's honest," Twilight chuckled, then stretched, "What say we turn in, Kitten? It's been a long day and I'm exhausted."

Ascentia smiled and let Twilight pull her to her feet, "I asked Fluttershy to put new sheets and blankets on the bed. Should be nice and soft," she cooed, rubbing her nose.

"Oooh, I always loved some soft sheets," Twilight grinned, kissing her nose.

Ascentia smiled as the two of them ascended the stairs, snuggled together and Twilight's hand under her dress the entire way.

"Hey Rainbow!" Cielle grinned as Rainbow came donstairs around 11AM, "What's up?"

Rainbow held up a hand as if to say 'later' just as Fluttershy turned around and smiled at her. Rainbow trudged over to Ascentia and pulled her out of her chair and to her knees, pressing the tip of her length against her lips.

Cielle raised an eyebrow, "Are they like coffee now?" she chuckled to Fluttershy.

"Sometimes she...needs other ways of waking up," Fluttershy said knowingly, turning back to the counter.

Cielle watched as Rainbow gripped Ascentia's head and pushed her length into her mouth, "Yeah but, not even a good morning. Just get on your knees and suck."

"I could fly first class to Jamaica if I had a nickel every time she did that," Fluttershy giggled.

Cielle watched with her teeth biting into her lip, "Man, Asy's just loving this," she said as she watched Ascentia eagerly wrap her arms around Rainbow's legs as Rainbow thrusted into her mouth.

"Good morning, all," Twilight greeted as she came in. She took notice of the scene and just playfully rolled her eyes, "Cutting to the chase already, Rainbow?"

Rainbow exhaled softly as Ascentia started to suck along with her thrusting, "Mmhmm. You've never had to wake up with morning wood. It's terrible."

"Point taken," Twilight chuckled, pouring herself a cup of coffee and sitting at the table.

Rainbow grunted as she filled Ascentia's mouth with her seed. Pulling out and pulling her jeans back up, she sat down at the table and dug into her breakfast, "Alright, so what did you want to talk to me about?" she asked.

Ascentia swallowed her seed and got back into her chair, "I want you to get me pregnant."

Rainbow was quiet for a second, "...I shouldn't have had the blowjob first," she said flatly.

"Wow, so you're gonna do it? Cool!" Cielle grinned, "Baby el numero threeo!"

"Tres," Fluttershy corrected her.

"Tres, right," Cielle blew a raspberry. "Wait. You're okay with this, Twilight?"

Twilight nodded, looking at the editorials of the newpspaper, "Mm-hmm."

"We talked about this last night," Ascentia said, rinsing out her mouth with her tea, "Besides, we can't have children without someone else's sperm."

"So... okay then," Rainbow shrugged a bit, "Guess that'll work."

"Won't it be kinda weird? I mean, Sunny's from some stranger and yet her brother or sister came from Aunt Rainbow Dash?" Cielle piped up, "How the hell are you gonna explain that when they're older?"

"Sunny's donor was Spike," Ascentia said nonchalently, swirling her tea around her mug.

Silence struck the room as everyone's eyes were on Twilight almost immediately.

Looking up from her paper, Twilight sighed, "Before any of you ask, no, I did not sleep with him and therefore cheat on her. He was a sperm donor and I used his. I just didn't tell anybody about it," she went back to the paper, sipping her coffee.

"...Does this mean I have to go donate sperm as well?" Rainbow asked, rather unsurprised by this information.

"No, you're gonna bang my brains out," Ascentia assured her.

"Good," Rainbow smirked, leaning back and checking Ascentia out.

"That was the plan," Twilight said with a little wave.

"How's that fair?" Cielle asked, "She sleeps with her donor and even lives her, but Spike doesn't get that honour? How rude!"

"I'm going to Canterlot tomorrow to see him," Twilight replied with another non-comittal wave, "Besides, she said the same thing."

Rainbow giggled, "So, I'm gonna get Asy preggers, Twi's gonna go fuck Spike. All in all this is a good day so far."

Rainbow sipped her coffee, then raised up a smirk to Twilight.

"You know, Twi... so far you're the only one in this house that hasn't... paid rent yet," she said smoothly.

Ascentia lifted her head, raising an eyebrow to Rainbow, "She's the only one? You wanna rethink that sentence?"

Rainbow glared at her, "Very funny. She's the only one over age, you sick bastard."

Ascentia stuck her tongue out and giggled, to which Rainbow did the same.

Twilight looked up, then wrinkled her nose, "No thank you. No offense, but that ship has sailed. I'll pay rent in money."

"What do you mean that ship has sailed?" Rainbow pouted.

"That threesome we had six years ago was fun, but I'm not exactly hankering to relive it," Twilight went back to the paper with a mild shrug, "Like I said, no offense. I'm just not interested anymore."

Cielle looked impressed, "Wow. Twi, I think you're the first woman to turn Rainbow down in the last five years. I'm impressed. Like a boss."

Chuckling a bit, Twilight sipped her coffee, "Well thank you. Look at this way, more for you ladies."

"Asy's not quite so resilient," Cielle remarked.

"Asy'd let all six of us gangbang her if she had the chance," Rainbow quipped.

"You'd like that, wouldn't you, Kitten?" Twilight teased.

Ascentia briefly flashed a mental image of being laid back on the table, Rainbow plowing her rear, Rarity eating her out, Twilight and Pinkie riding both her hands while Applejack straddled her face and Fluttershy grinding on her midsection. Biting her lip and shifting in her seat, she blushed furiously and nodded.

"You're picturing it, aren't you?" Cielle licked her lips, "I am SO filming it if happens!"

"Keep it on a tripod, it'll be hard to watch with a shakycam," Rainbow stuck her tongue out.

Ascentia blushed furiously and hid her face, "You guys..."

"I think Kitten's a little embarrassed!" Twilight laughed, "Okay, no more teasing."

"You girls can be so silly," Fluttershy smiled as she set some food in front of Twilight and then joining them at the table.

"I dunno, if Asy really wants it, maybe we can set it up for her," Rainbow winked, which elicited a deeper blush from Ascentia, "Would you like that, Asy?"

Ascentia curled her knees up to her chest and hid her face, nodding.

"Oh, Kitten..." Twilight giggled, patting her shoulder.

Ascentia huddled into a ball, hiding her face while Rainbow giggled.

"Oh come on, who hasn't thought about it," Rainbow chuckled.

"I think we all have in some way," Fluttershy giggled.

"Thought about being gangbanged, or gangbanging Asy?" Cielle asked.

"Gangbanging Asy," Rainbow chuckled, "She's just so meek and adorable. She's perfect for it."

"Just give her back to me when you're all done," Twilight winked.

"What am I, the group sex toy?" Ascentia quipped.

"Yes," Rainbow, Cielle and Fluttershy all said in unison.

"Apparently," Twilight went back to her paper.

"All seven of us are gonna be in the living room, passing you around between us," Rainbow smirked, "Hope you don't chafe easily."

"Knowing my Kitten, no way," Twilight quipped, "She doesn't."

"Good, cause I know AJ would be pretty rough with you," Rainbow remarked, leading Ascentia to blush deeper, something Rainbow didn't miss. "Oh, got a bit of a crush on AJ, do we?"

Ascentia scrunched her lips up and nodded.

"Nothing to be ashamed of, Kitten," Twilight giggled, "I know I can't keep my eyes away when she has her Daisy Dukes..."

"Those thighs..." Ascentia bit her lip and moaned softly, "And that tan. God she's gorgeous..."

"Yeah, just imagine that muscular body completely naked and towering over you," Rainbow smirked, "Ordering you to service her."

"Rainbow!" Ascentia blushed, "Don't give me MORE mental pictures!"

"Give you more? Okay!" Rainbow laughed, "She uses her lasso to tie you down to the bed, straddling you and holding you down like runaway cattle!"

Ascentia mewled as her hand drifted down to her crotch, burying her face in her knees.

"Okay, okay, we'll stop," Rainbow chuckled, reaching over to pat her head, "Subject change!"

Ascentia mewled in thanks, but didn't disentangle  herself from her human ball.

"So how'd the party go?" Cielle asked, looking over to Twilight.

"At first, it was... hell," Twilight said, shaking her head, "Okay, that's overstating it a bit. I was nervous and felt really out of place, plus everyone was giving me dirty looks or ignoring me. No one really got over me being a convicted abuser, really."

"Oh dear," Fluttershy said grimly, "I sure hope they stopped at some point..."

"Yeah, the whole point of the damn thing was your reinstatement," Rainbow rolled her eyes.

"I know, but who was I to expect a warm welcome back?" Twilight rolled her eyes, "At least Fancy Pants and his friends were nice about it. But it was thanks to Kitten over here that I actually managed to get my foot back in the door."

"Wow, really?" Fluttershy asked, smiling over at Ascentia, who was still curled up and hiding her face, "How's she pull that off?"

"She showed up out of nowhere, and just...well, she was being herself, while clinging to me all night," Twilight giggled, "It really took everyone by surprise."

Rainbow giggled, "Being some sexy arm candy the whole night, were we?" she asked, looking over at Ascentia, who poked her head up.

"I'm a Princess's wife, I'm supposed to be sexy arm candy," she stuck her tongue out at her.

"So everyone backed off, had a change of heart, and the reinstated ceremonial event went perfectly," Twilight beamed, "I'm sure glad to have my job back. If Kitten hadn't shown up, I might've been screwed."

"Nice," Rainbow gave Ascentia a clap on the back, "So... hey, stress at work was a big factor in... you know. Any idea how you're going to avoid that now?"

Twilight nodded, finishing her mug, "Yeah, I am. Princess Celestia suggested that I enlist the help of a secretary, actually. You know, I can't believe I didn't think of that before. But anyway, I think that would really help me a lot."

"Aw cool! Sexy secretary too? Man, I can't tell who has it better these days," Cielle grinned, "Who's the cutie taking your calls?"

"...I don't know," Twilight frowned thoughtfully, "That's going to be a tough process. I'll get applicants who are perfectly qualified or folks who just want to get close to Princess Twilight and ride her coattails."

"Don't be silly, there would have to be some standards of quality for seeking a secretary for a Princess," Fluttershy pointed out.

"True," Twilight conceded, "Well, I really don't know. I guess I'll just have to talk to Celestia about it."

"Why not Asy?" Cielle suggested, to which Rainbow hid a laugh and Fluttershy turned away and laid her face into her palm, "Have her be your secretary?"

"Are you crazy? Ascentia wearing an office uniform? I'd never get any work done! Besides, Princess Celestia gave me my own office in the palace, I can't exactly do anything lewd during work hours," Twilight pouted.

Cielle and Rainbow laughed.

"Oh come on, like Celestia doesn't get some action during the workday," Cielle taunted.

"You know, I like how your first thought about your wife working with you is fucking her brains out at work," Rainbow smirked.

"Girls, this is serious, I-"

"Um, can I offer my opinion?" Fluttershy spoke up.

Twilight looked at her, then nodded, "Okay, go ahead."

"I think you should enlist Ascentia as your secretary," Fluttershy said, "After all, she does know very well how you like things organized, and you know you can rely on her to get memos and messages to you, right?"

"Of course," Twilight said without hesitation, considering this, "That's a good point, too."

Ascentia lifted her head up, "You guys want me to go back to work? I haven't worked in 16 years."

Cielle scoffed, "Oh c'mon. Why are you so afraid of working? What happened at your last job?"

"Never you mind," Ascentia scowled.

"C'mon Asy. You could work for Twilight. You'd be good at it, Twilight loves you, and she can grope your ass in a skirt without a lawsuit," Rainbow giggled.

Ascentia blushed and fell silent.

"Crudity aside, that's true," Twilight said, "It would give you something to do, I know I can rely on you, Sunny would be in good hands, and it would actually give me a lot of peace of mind."

Ascentia smiled up at her, "Wouldn't you want someone who lives in Canterlot, and knows the city better?"

Twilight chuckled, kissing her nose, "It's my hometown, sweetheart. I can show you around and get you used to the place."

Ascentia's smile grew as she nuzzled up against Twilight, feeling in a tiny and snuggly mood, "Okay... sure, let's give it a try."

"Great," Twilight nuzzled her, "I'll be going there tomorrow to make the arrangements and...other things... Would you like to come with me?"

"Sure... uh, what other things?" Ascentia asked curiously.

"I sent Spike an e-mail earlier, before I came down," Twilight explained, "I told him we'd see each other when I came to town."

"Oh, right," Ascentia nodded, leaning in and kissing Twilight's cheek, "Yeah. I'll just hang out with Cadance while you're doing that."

"Okay, Kitten," Twilight kissed her cheek back, "That's a good idea anyway, they'll be in Canterlot until next week."

Rainbow giggled as she watched the two of them, "You know, Shy. Those two are going to give all of Canterlot diabetes."

"Along with toothaches, cavities and heart attacks," Fluttershy giggled.

Cielle watched the two of them and stood up, strolling over to Rainbow's side of the table and plopping down into her lap, snuggling up next to her.

"And I think it might be contagious," Rainbow giggled.

"I agree," Fluttershy got up, and snuggled against Rainbow's side, kissing her cheek.

"Oh, that reminds me," Rainbow whispered into Fluttershy's ear, "You wanna go down and have a 'chat' with AJ later?"

"We can do that," Fluttershy whispered back, nuzzling her.

"Good. Have a little surprise waiting for our little Asy baby," Rainbow giggled, kissing her cheek.

"Oh goodness," Fluttershy giggled, "This should be interesting."

"Well, you two enjoy some time alone," Rainbow smirked, "Me and Shy are gonna go for a walk."

"What am I, chopped liver?" Cielle pouted, then grinned, "It's okay, I gotta get to work in an hour, anyway. See you guys!

Twilight looked up and gave them a little wave, "Have fun, girls. It's a really nice day."

"Cya. And get some pics for me, Ci," Rainbow called as she and Fluttershy retreated out the door. Next Chapter: Biwolofigal Mama Estimated time remaining: 5 Hours, 38 Minutes
