Family bonding

Celestia and her mother walked through the forest, looking for the other two members of their family. "Not a lot to talk about," Celestia said.

"Nope," Chrysalis said. Ten seconds of awkward silence passed before she spoke again. "So, any stallions you're interested in?"

Celestia blushed. "Mom," she said, embarrassment in her voice, "you know I prefer mares."

"So?" Chrysalis asked. "I may like stallions, but even I've been with mares from time to time."

"I didn't need to know that," Celestia grumbled. "But what does that have to do with me?"

"You've never been curious was a dick in you felt like?" Chrysalis asked bluntly, making her daughter blush. "And I don't mean a dildo, I mean a real one."

A fiercer blush lit up the solar alicorn's face as she tried to hide behind her mane like Fluttershy would, but failed, as her main continued to flow in an unfeelable wind.(1) Chrysalis rolled her eyes. "I'll take that as a no," she said. "Then again, you and Luna always were prudish, relative to the rest of the family."

"Because if we were like the others," Celestia countered, "the ponies would consider us sluts."

"You didn't seem to have a problem with that before you banished your sister."

"Those were different times," Celestia snapped. "Ponies weren't as prude as they are now."

"And who became prude first?" Chrysalis asked. "You, or them, because whatever you do, the ponies follow without question."

Celestia opened her mouth to reply, but her brain stopped her voice before anything came out, and went back to those times. True, there were prudes-every era had a group outside the norms- but, for the most part, ponies were more open to sex, and even orgies with family members. She kept thinking back, trying to find when most ponies became prudes. Eventually, her memories reached back to the point where she and Luna had been drunk one night, one thing led to another, and, well, I'm sure you can guess what happened.

One thing that wasn't expected though, was that both of them had gotten pregnant, with a quick memory check from the other confirming they had impregnated each other. For fear of it happening again, the two decided to hide it, and, as a result, come out that they would no longer be having sex just to have sex.

"Us," Celestia eventually said. "It was Luna and I first, and the ponies just followed us in that."

Chrysalis sighed. "Why does that not surprise me?" she said. "Can you promise me, something?"

"What?" Celestia asked.

"When we get back, get laid by a stallion, not a mare."

Celestia glared at her mother, who shrugged. "What? I may not be Aphrodite, but even I know that sex can help relieve stress, and I know ruling a nation builds up stress."

"Mom, if I do, you need to promise to not pester me about it ever again."

"As long as you keep your end of it," Chrysalis said.

Again, the two walked in silence, this time, the silence going on for minutes, until the two exited the forest, only to see a large door, colored obsidian black and covered in spikes, pony skulls around the edges, in front of them. "You think that's the entrance to the next area?" Celestia asked.

"What else could it be?" her mother replied. "It looks hellish enough. Now, we just need to wait for the others."

"What makes you think they'll get here?" Celestia asked.

"Something your father told me," Chrysalis said. "When in an area of Tartarus, if you're able to face whatever it is that area is, you easily find the exit. Though he had only heard of that, and didn't know if it was true."

"Let's hope it is, then," Celestia said. "Luna doesn't deserve another eternity banished, even if she has her family with her."
