I was busy fixing eggs for myself in Twilight's house or tree, "I'm not calling it a treehouse that's just stupid."

"What's just stupid?" Tia asked as she walked into the kitchen.

"This place, it's either a house or a tree, I'm not gonna call it a damn treehouse though."

"Why not?" Tia asked as she wrapped her arms around my waist.

"Treehouses are things things that you build for little kids in the backyard in a tree. You don't carve a house out of a tree and call it treehouse that makes no sense."

"You did the exact same thing." Tia said.

"Yeah but I call it my home, this isn't my home so I don't know whether to call it a tree or a house." I said while plating the eggs, "See my moral dilemma here?"

"I do." Tia said.

"But right now I'm more worried about whether or not Twilight got pregnant from last night." I sat down at the table and started to eat my eggs.

"Oh don't worry I gave her the same anti-conception spell that I used last night." Tia said.

"How does that work?" I asked.

"It puts itty bitty shields around each egg and prevents sperm from inseminating. It's usually used around the heat season and varies in strength depending on the mare." Celestia said. "Nopony has been strong enough to take me when I go into heat."

"I'm glad I'm not a pony." I smirked while poking at my eggs.

"Yes but when I go into heat it is very very bad. It takes several stallions to satisfy me." Celestia said. "The most that it's taken is 17 stallions."

"They all have hair triggers and can only cum once." I said. "There's a big difference between a stallion and a man."

"What would that be?" A new voice asked as the rest of the girls came into the kitchen. It was Twilight who asked me the question.

"A MAN knows to leave his partner satisfied." I grinned as I finished my eggs.

"Mickey I've been wondering." Fluttershy asked. "Why do you have sharp teeth in the front?"

"Mankind has evolved to be an omnivorous species, I have sharp teeth in the front for meat but I choose not to eat it in this society."

"Why do you eat meat?" Rarity asked.

"My species has a high-protien diet and that's usually covered by eating cooked meat, there are alternatives to it and that's what I do to keep in shape." I said. "If I don't have enough protein in my system, my body's muscles will weaken and eventually I'll just become skin and bones." I said.

"Mickey if you wouldn't mind I'd like for you to come back to Canterlot for a proper physical exam." Celestia said. "There will be no unnecessary procedures and I'll be there to oversee the entire thing if you'd like me to."

"I'll think about it, because I can't just go winging it when it comes to my health. I just don't want a repeat of last time." I said.

"That's perfectly understandable." Celestia said.

"You're slipping." I said to her.

"What?" She asked.

"You were going into princess mode, so now whenever you do that around me or your fellow herd members. I'm going to say that you're slipping." I said while cleaning off my plate.

"I never noticed it." She admitted.

"I did, and we don't want this mask of who you make your subjects think you are. We want the real you not just some mask." I said.

"That's going to be kind of difficult, I've always presented myself as a princess." Celestia said.

"You're not just a princess you're a woman as well, and women deserve to be treated kindly and with respect." I said.

"Oh, it seems you don't get it." Dash said while covering her hay bacon in ketchup.

"Get what?" I asked.

"Girls you're going to over complicate things so I'll ask him." Fluttershy said. "Mickey back on your world who was the more dominant gender?"

"Men, but in my times both men and women could hold the same positions in politics and society." I said.

"In Equestria it's the females that are more dominant gender." Fluttershy said.

"Oh I knew that." I said.

"What?" Rainbow asked.

"Yeah I can practically see it, but the reason I don't acknowledge it is because I'm not a fucking doormat. I'm not going to let people walk all over me to get what they want." I said, "If they want something from me they should ask not try to manipulate me in order to do so."

"Oh, well................." Rarity said. "This is awkward."

"It's only awkward if you make it so. I get that you were trying to tell me that I act like a girl more than a guy, but think about it. I'm a human that comes from a different planet. If my world's population saw how you acted then they would think that the whole world is populated by butch lesbians." I said, "Not that there's anything wrong with that, but that'd be the general opinion of my people."

"So, what do you think you act like?" Twilight asked.

"I'm a being that doesn't take shit from anybody. If you want to talk to me, be civil about it. I don't treat you like shit and I expect you don't do the same to me." I said.

"That's sensible." Applejack said while picking food off her plate.

"This morning I've just hit a gold mine of dilemmas." I said to them as I sat down drinking a fresh brewed cup of coffee.

"Like what?" Pinkie asked between stuffing her face full of mustard and pickle pancakes.

"Where do you come up with baby names?" I asked.

"How do you mean?" Tia asked as the girls looked at me.

"Okay so here's what I've seen out of the ponies, their names almost always have something to do with either their destiny, their cutiemark, or their personality. So my question is where do these names come from? Because they don't just pop up out of the blue like that." I snapped my fingers to solidify my point.

"That's...................a good question." Twilight said pondering the dilemma I had just put out. The other girls had paused as well thinking about what I had just said.

"What does your kind usually name babies?" Tia asked.

"That depends on the gender, and even then there are some names that fit into both genders, like Micah for example." I said.

"Micah?" Twi asked.

"It was something off the top of my head." I shrugged. "I seriously don't know where these pony names come from though and if our children are satyrs that that makes it even more confusing."

"Satyrs?" Rainbow asked.

"It's a mix of two species generally having traits of both species present." Twilight explained. "He's saying that our children could be half-human half-pony."

"Yeah........"

"It doesn't matter what they look like we'll love them all the same." Fluttershy said.

"I agree Fluttershy." Rarity commented.

"What would you name your children if you had the option Mickey?" Tia asked.

"David, Matt, Tom, Peter, and Christopher for the boys. For the girls Rose, Amy, Donna, River, and Clara." I said.

The girls looked at me. "You've thought about this before haven't you?" Twilight asked.

"Little bit." I said while drinking my coffee. "Have you thought of any names?" I asked Pinkie, AJ, and Rainbow.

"I have." AJ replied. "I'm thinking about naming our kids Apple Cobbler, and Apple Fritter. They were my parents names and I'd like to keep the family tradition." She blushed.

"I understand, family and tradition is important to you." I said. "What about you Pinkie?"

"I've got only a few names, like Surprise, Party Favor, and Cupcake."

"I would think that you'd name one Pizza Pie or something." I said offhandedly.

"No, that's my first cousin." Pinkie said.

"I just don't get how a pony so cheerful and accepting, can be from an amish family." I said. "It just boggles me sometimes."

"Amish?" Tia asked.

"It's a term from my planet where families and even communities go without the aid of modern technology." I said.

"I can't imagine that." Twilight said.

"It was completely by choice.........I think." I said. "To be honest I really don't know what amish people are like besides television."

"What's television?" Everypony asked at once.

"It's like having your own personal movie theater in your house without needing a projector." I explained.

"Then how does it work?" Fluttershy asked.

"Electricity." I said as I finished my coffee. Electricity was nothing new to Equestria it was used for the stoves and in big cities, they just haven't invented television. I'm not going to invent the TV either, mostly because I don't know how it works and I don't want to melt the minds of every equestrian on the planet. Microwaves on the other hand I'm already working on, it'll be great once I get the patent.

"Does it run on film?" Twilight asked.

"No they used radio waves when they were first invented but they have improved and used satellites." I said. The radio was another thing in Equestria and and there were only a few stations.

"Satellites?" Tia asked.

"Twilight?" I asked her and she summoned a pencil and paper, I started to sketch a circle with a weird arm protruding out of the bottom and showed it to them.

"This is a satellite dish, it works like this." I pointed to the bottom of it with my pencil. "This is the receiver of the dish it takes all information, or in this case; programming and converts it into pictures and sound. It's much faster than a radio wave and can send and receive information more reliably." I said and looked at my pencil and Twilight. "You have pencils and still use quills?"

"It's a classic!" Twilight argued.

"At least with a pencil you can erase your mistakes, if you use a quill that means that you can't erase the ink." I pointed out.

"You can't beat a classic." Twilight mumbled pouting.

I hugged and patted her on the head, "I love you to my adorkable little pony."

"Told ya that was a word." Rainbow said while drinking ketchup.

"Must you do that darling it's so disgusting." Rarity almost gagged.

"Not my fault it's what the baby wants." Rainbow said while licking ketchup from her fingertips.

"Sugarcube, when the babies pop out they are not going to be the most pleasant thing in the world. Especially taking care of them and we can't help that we're craving somethings that might not seem all that appetizing." AJ said. "So you might as well shut ya trap and hand over the fried pickles." She stared at the fashionista with anger in her eyes.

"Starting with the mood swings AJ?" Zecora asked.

"I'm sorry, jus' can't help it. Times I feel mad, other times I feel sad for eating those apples, then I get stressed about not being the perfect mother." AJ said while covering the fried pickles in honey and mayo.

"Oh my sweet not so little Applejack." I said to her as I sat next to her. "There is no such thing as being perfect, the best thing you can do is try your best and hope for the rest." I poked her heart.

She still got me into a bone crushing hug and snuggled into my shoulder. "Thanks Mickey, you always know what to say to cheer me up."

"What about you Rainbow? Have you thought of any baby names?" Pinkie asked the rainbow haired mare.

"There is one name that I'd like if the baby were a girl." Rainbow blushed.

"I think I know." Fluttershy hugged her oldest friend and herdmate. "It's alright Dashie you can tell them."

"If it's a girl I wanna name her Firefly, after my mother." Rainbow said with tears trickling down her cheeks.

"Commander Firefly?" Tia asked. "You're her daughter?!" Rainbow just nodded while Fluttershy hugged her. "I'm sorry girls you'll have to excuse me." Tia teleported out with a flash of light.

Celestia reappeared in her room in Canterlot, looking at a painting that was given to her by the Curator of Louvre in Prance. She gently lifted the painting of the wall to reveal a safe that only she and her sister knew the combination to. She put the combination in and opened the safe to reveal the last wills and testaments of her commanding officers. She picked up the will and testament of Firefly and the letter to her daughter, her husband had already received his and had come to terms with her death. Now it was time for Rainbow for her to receive her letter. Celestia took the letter and the will, teleported back to Twilight's house.

Tia appeared in a flash of light with objects in her hand, I noticed that when she handed them to Rainbow.

"What is this?" Dash asked.

"It's from your mother."

My.......My Mother. I snatched it out of the princess' hand and opened up the letter and started to read it.

Hey baby, it's me Mom. I'm sorry if this letter had to reach you, I asked the princess to give it to you when you were older so that you could understand why you had to wait so long. If this letter has reached you then I know that you are ready to hear what I have to say. I know you like I know myself, you are going to be a brash, young, arrogant mare and I know that but you are going to be destined for greatness and I know that you are going to do the Sonic Rainboom, because I have no doubt in my mind you can do it. If this letter has reached you and I'm..................not around I want you to know that no matter where I am I will always love you and will always be looking out for you no matter where I am. Now you might have noticed that there's will and testament, I've spent every waking moment in the military to set aside a fund for whatever you want to spend it on, be it your mare, stallion, or herd. I will always love you my precious raindrop and I will always be there for you whenever you need me to be.

I love you so much, your loyal mother. Firefly.

I was bawling after I read the letter. I couldn't hold back my tears anymore, I loved my mommy. She has provided for me throughout the years but now we have the fund to raise our children, I knew she always believed that I could do the Sonic Rainboom. I was hugged tighter by Flutters and then my stallion Mickey hugged me from the other side. I love him so much, he'll always be by my side. Through wiping my tears I could see the will and testament, I opened it up to see the will and testament of her savings account set aside for me. It was 172,000 bits that was enough to buy a big enough house and furnishings for the children. The emotion of my tears changed, from sad to happy. She knew I would do something stupid and I loved her for it.

My little bluejay was crying and I needed to be there for her, so I slipped out of Applejack's grip and rushed to her side. I embraced both her and my yellow angel in my grip and Rainbow's hands were shaking as she held the will. "Dash if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine." I said to her.

"I'm.........not.......crying........'cause..........of............that." She hiccuped. "My..........mommy............paid...........for...............the..........BABIES!" Rainbow shouted at the end and held on tighter. She put the will on the table and I read over it and leaned back. IT was 172,000 bits, it was enough to start a life for the children. Taking care of potentially six children is no easy matter, but with this we had a head start.

I held Rainbow's hand and squeezed it, "I wish I could have met your mother Dash, it looks like she's the best mom in the world."

Rainbow snuggled into my neck, "You got that right."

I kissed her forehead. "I love you my little bluejay."

Rainbow put her hand on my cheek and kissed me. "I love you too you idiot."
