What it means to be family.
You are Anon
After ending up in Equestria over twenty-two years ago you settled down and had yourself a family.
Married to the love of your life Twilight Sparkle, the two of you somehow had a child shortly after you were wed.
Twilight called it a fertility potion. Something about both of you had to drink it then magic would happen.
Never understood how that warp stuff worked anyway.
It didn't matter though because a little over a year after drinking it out popped your daughter Glimmer.
With the upper half of her body being human and the lower half that of a pony, she was the cutest little abomination you've ever seen.
Twilight thought so too.
And so began your life as a family man.
That was seventeen years ago and your cute little girl has grown up to be a fine young lady.
A smile creeps on your face as you sit at the kitchen table eating your lunch.
A weird vegetarian, meat flavored sandwich.
You think it's tofu.
Not bad.
A sudden crash from down the hall brings you back to reality as well as the stomping of hooves on a hard floor.
”You just aren't trying hard enough!”
”Mom, I'm trying my best every single time!”
”Well maybe you need to practice the basics more.”
”For bucks sake mom I do them every day!”
”Watch your mouth young lady!”
Here we go again.
Into the kitchen comes your little girl though not so little anymore as well as your wife chasing after her.
”I'm not done talking to you yet.”
”Well I'm done talking to you!” shouts Glimmer as she opens the fridge and sticks her head inside.
Needless to say your daughter turned seventeen a few months ago and is now at 'that age'.
Ever since the both of you found out that Glimmer has some magical abilities, mostly able to move things, Twilight was hell bent on teaching her.
You never seen your wife so proud of her daughter but in reality Twilight can be pushy when it comes to Glimmer's studies.
”Glimmer please, you have magical talent but you just need more practice. Why when I was a foal I would practice all day to get better. I would spend days studying and...”
“Well we can't all be like you Twi.”
Twilight shoots you a glare.
”You're not helping Anon. Now as I was saying just to get a grasp on magic you have to put in a lot of work.”
Glimmer pulls out a carton of chocolate milk and grabs a glass from the cabinet.
”Mom I know! I do this day in and day out but I never get any better! All I can do is just grab a few things but that's it! I'm not a pony like you! I can't do magic!” Glimmer says as she pours her milk.
”Yes you can! You can do basic telekinesis. You just need to apply how you do that to other spells.”
”BUT I CAN'T!” Glimmer yells at the top of her voice.
“Calm down Glimmer. It's alright.”
”No it's not dad! No matter what I do I fail! I can't take it anymore!”
Glimmer slams down the carton onto the kitchen counter.
”Buck this I'm gonna go see my friends!” Glimmer says as she stomps out of kitchen.
”Wait Glimmer!”
”No! Buck off!”
You can hear the door slamming in the distance.
Kids these days.
Getting up from the table to kneel down next to Twilight.
“It's alright Twi, she's just at that age where she just wants to do what she wants. She'll be back.”
To your surprise though instead of the saddened Twilight you were expecting you are kneeling next to a very angry purple pony.
”Buck off? Telling ME to buck OFF!”
You can practically see steam coming from her nose.
“It OK Twi, I'm sure she just...”
”NO! IT IS NOT OK! Our daughter is growing up to be a waste of great potential! Ugh! Why couldn't she be like every other foal and just be a loving daughter but no! She has to be a rebel! She wants to put off her studies to play!”
“To be fair you do make her study a lot.”
”Because she needs it!”
She is glaring daggers at you now.
”You!”
“Me?”
”Go talk to your daughter!”
“But I don't know anything about magic.”
”This isn't about magic! Go talk to her and make her return to her studies!”
Twilight stomps over to the table, grabs your sandwich and then proceeds to storm out of the kitchen.
While passing by the counter the top of her tail seemed to naturally swing up and knock over the chocolate milk that Glimmer poured.
What a waste.
Guess it's time to go have a talk with your daughter and see why she's acting up.
Still be Anon
Looking for your daughter after she stormed out from the castle.
This isn't the first time your daughter suddenly left home after arguing with her mother.
Twilight can be strict at times but it's only because she want's Glimmer to be strong and successful.
Walking through Ponyville you see many of your old friends walking about.
You spot Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle walking out of Sugar Cube Corner.
They are full grown mares now.
Goes to show how old you're getting.
You see Roseluck attending to her flowers outside her shop.
She has three foals helping her that you know are hers.
You spot Lyra reading a book on her bench.
Looking up from her book she notices you and waves.
Well it is only polite to say hi.
Walking over the the minty green unicorn you greet her.
“Hi Lyra, how goes it?”
”Hi Anon and the same as usual. Still being a lazy Dad?”
“Hey I get out and work too.”
”Yeah, sure you do Mr. I'm married to a princess. You're nothing but a big stay at home dad while living off those sweet royal bits.”
“That hurts Lyra, besides my kid is getting along in years too. Soon she'll be out on her own that is unless my wife kills her first.”
”Twilight and Glimmer at it again? Why do they keep arguing. It's mom and daughter, they should be getting along.”
“That's what I keep telling them but with Twilight constantly trying to teach her magic and Glimmer being a teenager, not to mention she isn't the best at magic, they keep stressing each other out to no end.”
”Well Twilight will be Twilight.”
“Speaking of them you haven't seen Glimmer around at all have you?”
Lyra shrugs.
”Sorry Anon, been reading.”
“Oh well I'm sure she'll turn up.”
”I'm sure she will.”
“I'll see you around Lyra.”
Walking away you hear Lyra shout at you “Make sure you scold her for arguing.”
Good old mint horse.
Be Twilight Sparkle, mother of an undisciplined daughter.
Be pacing back and forth in your study still in a bad mood.
The thoughts of this afternoons argument with Glimmer still fills your head.
'Who does she think she is! She's my daughter and should be wanting nothing more then to accept my lessons. After all you are Princess Twilight Sparkle and she is Lady Glimmer Sparkle. How dare she be that rude to her mother of all ponies. She even yelled at her father! How disrespectful. Thank Celestia she didn't do it in public.'
Stepping out of your study you make your way down to the kitchen.
Your thoughts still running wild.
'I mean honestly I thought I raised her better then that. I did everything my mother did for me. Besides studying hard is what got me where I am today. It's for her own good.'
'I even got my paperwork done early today just so I could help her with theories on basic magical formulas and signs, and how does she show her appreciation by just going off.'
Passing just before the kitchen you spot the wine cabinet and pause.
Remembering the events from today a glass of wine doesn't sound like a bad idea.
After all Glimmer wont be back until after dark, as usual.
You only hope Anon is giving her a strict talking to or he's gonna be sleeping on the couch for a week.
Back to the green monkey man Anon.
Trying to think of all the areas where your daughter hangs out.
Already checked Sugar Cube Corner and Pinkie didn't see her.
But Pinkie sees everyone.
So she was never seen.
You have an idea where.
….......................................
After walking outside of town just to the edge of the Everfree Forest.
You spot the hill you were looking for.
A hill outside the forest with a single tree on top of it.
It is dusk now and Celestia's sun is low in the sky and casts a golden light on the area.
At the top of the hill you can see a log bench and on top of that log was a Satyr.
Approaching the bench you see her holding one of the yellow flowers from the field in her hand.
As you sat down next to her she glanced at you and returned to staring at the flower.
”It's a nice flower isn't it.”
”Yeah I like these ones.”
“Not surprising. We used to bring you here when you were little all the time.”
Glimmer looks up at you but back at the flower again in silence.
“Back home I think that was called a Daylily.” you said as you pointed to the flower.
”Why are they called that?”
You stop to think for a moment.
“Honestly I'm not sure. A man probably named it after a woman.”
Glimmer looks back up to you.
”Did you ever name anything after mom?”
Well that was unexpected but greet your daughter with a smile.
“Yeah I did actually.”
With a look of interest on her face now she asks “What?”
Leaning down closer to Glimmers face you bring your hand up and flick her on the nose.
Glimmer reels back quickly covering her nose.
”Ah Dad! What was that for?”
“It's the answer to your question.”
Glimmer looks up at you in confusion.
“You ya knucklehead. You were given your mothers name so you're named after her. Sparkle.”
Glimmer now looks at you with a pout.
”That's not what I meant.”
“Well in that case, no.”
Now it's a look of disappointment.
Glimmer turn back to the flower and tosses it to the ground.
Cupping her face in her hands and elbows on her knees she says ”Well why does mom have to always be so mean.”
You offer her another smile.
“Glimmer, your mom does it because she just wants whats best for you.”
”Well it doesn't seem like that. Twelve hour study sessions on the weekends! Who does that to their daughter?”
“Your mother.”
”Exactly! Ever since my magic appeared it's been nothing but lessons. Hell even when grandma shows up it's like a review.”
Glimmer sighs.
”I just want my old mom back. Before I got this stupid magic.”
You see Glimmer pick up the flower she tossed down with her magic, enveloping it with a light purple hue.
That makes sense though.
Glimmer's magic didn't appear till she was fourteen.
Twilight and I thought she was just like me and couldn't do magic up until that point.
A late bloomer you suppose.
Looking at your daughter you see a sad look in her eyes.
Wrapping your arm around her you bring her in for a hug.
“Listen Glimmer. Your mother and I love you very much. I know it seems tough but in the long run I guarantee you'll be thanking her for all this. Just because you got magic doesn't mean your mom stopped loving you. In fact, she couldn't be more proud of you.”
Glimmer looks up to you.
”Really?”
“Yeah, she thinks you can be as good at magic as she is one day.”
”But I can't do anything other then pick up objects. No matter what I try I can't seem to do it.”
“So you're just gonna quit? The little Satyr girl that wanted to be just like her mom?”
A blush comes over Glimmers face.
”I did not want to be like her!”
You can't help but laugh at your daughters embarrassment.”
“I remember you saying things like that back when you were nine. 'I wanna be just like mommy.'”
A quick shove from her follows breaking your hug.
Glimmer puts her face back into her hands with her elbows on her knees as she looks at you.
”Well doesn't mean mom can't be a little nicer. I really try.”
You still can't help but smile.
”Well how about we both talk to Twilight and see if we can cut you some slack.”
”How so dad?”
”I'll talk to her tonight once I head back and when you get home well get this all sorted out.”
Glimmer stairs at you for a moment.
”Promise dad?”
“I promise. You keep thinking your mom is mean but she still loves you and almost everything she does she does for you.”
Finally you get a smile from your daughter.
Glimmer leans back into you with a hug.
”Thanks dad.”
“It's what I do.”
As Glimmers feet shift you can hear a slight clink sound that comes to your attention.
Breaking from your hug with Glimmer you look over the side of the log.
Five empty hard cider bottles.
Was she...
Glimmer has a terrible poker face.
“Care to explain to me what these are doing here?”
So she was drinking.
You suddenly tighten your hug on her and bring your face just in front of hers.
“Glimmer” You say with the most deadpan look.
She really can't hide much from you. Her eyes are darting back and forth.
You've seen her do this every time she got into trouble with you.
”Yeah dad?”
“I smell cider on your breath.”
She quickly tightens her mouth into what looks like a scrunch.
All you can manage to do is sigh.
You loosen your grip on her.
Standing up from the log you look down at her.
“Glimmer, you now you're not supposed to be drinking.”
Glimmer looks down at her hooves.
”Yeah dad.”
“Then why are you drinking. In fact how did you get the cider?”
She is again darting her eyes back and forth while looking at the ground.
”Uh...”
“Uh? What?”
”Uh...it was a friend of mine.”
She looks up at you.
You just keep your neutral look.
“Keep going.”
She looks like she's really conflicted now.
If some fucking stallion is messing around with your little girl, you still have your knife from the when you served and a few other things that popped out here with you.
”Uh...it was...”
You could just ditch him in the forest. No one would suspect a thing.
”Was...”
Yeah this kiddo is dead.
”Applebloom.”
Well looks like nobody is going missing tonight.
You still raise your eyebrow at Glimmer.
“Applebloom gave you the cider?”
”Yeah! I ran into her after I left the castle and she saw how mad I was. She asked me if I wanted to calm down a little so I said yes.”
Doesn't seem like she's lying.
Applebloom used to baby sit her a lot when she was young.
Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle used to help watch her too.
“Well where is Applebloom now?”
”She left a little while ago. She went back to Sweet Apple Acres. Took one of the ciders with her.”
You glance again to the bottles.
“And how many did you have?”
Glimmer starts to fidget again.
”..wo...”
”What's that?”
”I had two.”
She doesn't really seem tipsy so Twilight probably wont find out about this.
Still though...
“And how many times have you drank with Applebloom?”
She puts her hands up a little.
”No! This was the first time I've actually drank with her?”
“Yeah? Well how many other times have you drank?”
She pauses for a second.
”Just once before dad. I took one of the bottles of wine.”
So that's where that thing went, Twilight was looking everywhere for it.
She really is just like a human child.
No wonder Twilight is losing her mind with her.
She's never seen how humans grow up and we do our fair share of getting into trouble.
All you can do is sit back down with a sigh.
“Glimmer. I'm not gonna lie but you are doing some stupid things and now I'm upset with you.”
Glimmer looks back down to her hooves with a defeated look.
“But, you know I did some stupid things when I was your age too.”
This gets her attention.
“I remember my first beer. I remember when I got arrested for the first time back home. I remember doing a lot more then just those. However it doesn't make them right. Theft is still theft and if your mother ever found out about this she would loose her mind.”
”You're not gonna tell her?”
“Of course not. She'd kill both of us.”
A surprised expression appears on her face.
“However now I know, and if I catch you doing anything like this again not only will your mother find out but I will be the one to punish you. So this is your one freebie that you get Glimmer. Don't break my trust in you or you'll have hell to pay.”
Glimmer jumps back into you with a hug.
”Sorry dad. I wont do it again.”
“That's my girl.”
Though you'll give Appleboom a chewing once you see her next.
You break the hug and realize that Luna's moon is about to rise.
“It's getting late Glimmer. I hope your feeling better and got something from this conversation.”
Glimmer gives you a smile.
”Yeah, thanks dad.”
“Good. Just don't take too long getting home. I'm gonna head back and talk with your mom. I expect you back under two hours.”
”I will dad. I was just gonna go see Applebloom one more time.”
“Better not be fucking drinking.”
”No! I just wanted to pick up a book I was gonna borrow from here.”
“Yeah sounds like a excuse.”
Glimmer pouts again.
”I'm not gonna do anything. I'll be home soon.”
With that Glimmer spins around and take off towards the apple trees you can see in the distance.
“Kids will be kids.”
With a smile you start heading back home to your loving wife.
….......................................................
Be Glimmer
Heading to Sweet Apple Acres.
Can't believe you got caught by your dad.
At least it wasn't mom.
Approaching the wooden fence you easily jump over it.
Pays to have long pony legs sometimes.
Running up to the farmhouse you spot Applejack inside.
You walk up the steps and knock on the door.
”Just a minute.” you hear called out from the house.
After a few moments Applejack opens the door.
”Well if it isn't lil' Glimmer. What can I do for ya?”
“Hi Applejack just looking for Applebloom.”
”She's upstairs. Watch out for the youngins.”
Applejack steps aside letting you in.
“Thanks Applejack. I wont be here long.”
”Take yer time.”
Walking past her you head up to Applebloom's room.
This should take no time at all then you just hope dad is done talking to mom by the time you get there.
….......................................................
Back to Anon
Finally walking into your home.
Sure it's a castle but who cares.
Never cared for the fact your technically a prince.
Married for love not money, making Papa Anon proud.
Walking into the main hall, no sign of Twilight.
Kitchen, checked.
Bedroom, checked.
Study, bingo.
The study itself was always pleasant.
A fireplace, lots of different books to read, and the furniture itself you could say was fit for royalty.
Noticing one of the chairs had books on the side table as well as on the floor you could only guess who was in it.
Walking up to the chair Twilight is sitting in and as always she's reading a book.
Doesn't seem like she knows your here.
Sneaking up to the her you suddenly grab her and pull her in for a hug.
”WHA! ANON! What are you doing!?”
“Nice to see you too hun.”
Bringing your face to hers to place a gentle kiss on her lips.
After a few seconds you break it as she lets a content sigh.
”Why do I put up with you?” she says with a smile.
“You want the real answer or something else and is that wine?”
Twlight eases out of your grip as you set her back down in her chair.
”Yeah, I just needed ssomething after today. Glimmer made me so angry I jusst...I don't know.”
“Drinking alone and angry isn't good for you.”
You leaned against the hardwood table that stood in the middle of the room.
“Neither is drinking that much to the point of slurring.” pointing to the two wine bottles on the side table.
”I know, I know. Just today seemed...different then our past arguments. I don't know why she refusses to stick to her lessons. Did you talk to her?”
“Yes I talked to her. I'm also here to talk to you too.”
Twilight gives you a confused look or as about as a confused look a drunk pony could give.
”About what?”
“Twilight, Glimmer is stressed out. So I want to ask you can you cut back on her lessons a little?”
This gets her attention as she suddenly bursts up from her seat.
”Anon! You can't be serious. Glimmer has a high magical potential. She could go on to make history if she learns to control it! How can you even ask to cut back on her lessons, if anything I should be doubling them!”
“Twilight she's still just a kid though. She can only handle so much. Why not just let her be herself, magic or not I know she's gonna be successful in whatever she does.”
”And let all that raw power go to waste? No daughter of mine is going be some lazy sslacker. I had to go through way more tutoring, studying, and practices then she ever had to.”
”But she's not you.”
Twilight begins to magic over one of the wine bottles she had on her table, pouring a small amount into a glass.
”Anon pleasse, she has to do this. It's for her own good. She started so late in her life that she has to make up for what she missed.”
You notice Twilight is swaying a little.
“You may be right. She did start magic late in her life but that I'm afraid Twilight I'll have to disagree with you.”
Twilight stares at you in disbelief, as she blinks the magic surronding her glass fades and it fell to the floor.
”Anon, this is our daughter! You can't be throwing away her future like this.”
“I don't disagree with you that she should gain control over her magic, I disagree that all the lessons will do her good. You're going to cause more bad then good if you keep stressing her out like this, this goes for you as well.”
”No! Our daughter is not going to be some third rate magic user!”
“Twilight, Glimmer is going to get pushed too far by this and if I know anything about human kids it's that forcing them is going to do no good.”
”She is not a human!”
“But she's part one!”
”Argh! I can't believe my own husband is doing this!”
“I may not understand magic Twi, but I understand our daughter.”
”And you're ssaying I don't!?”
“I think were getting a little off topic.”
Twilight still holding the wine bottle with her magic brings it to her mouth and takes a swig.
”No, I think were right on topic! This is what you wanted to talk about right? How our little girl is gonna be a failure!”
“Twilight you've had enough.”
”I know when I have had enough!”
As Twilight swings the wine bottle in the air her magic fades again.
However the wine bottle in motion flys in the direction it was pulled and just so happened to be pulled towards you quite quickly.
Yup that's a wine bottle to the face.
All you remember is a searing pain on the back of your head, your eye hurts, and a panicked Twilight over you.
Before the dark consumes you, you could hear “Mom? Dad? Dad!”
Be Glimmer and heading upstairs to see your 'Older sister' Applebloom.
Not really your sister but she was always there for you growing up.
Cutting a left at the top you round the corner and walk up to her door.
Remembers the knock your dad always does you knock five times while humming.
*Shave and a haircut*
After a few seconds it's returned with the following two knocks, as the door opens an older Applebloom is revealed.
”Hiya Glimmer. How ya feelin?”
“Heh heh, uh better now. I came by for that book you got last week.”
”Well sure, cmon in.”
Applebloom steps aside as you walk through the door.
Looking around her room, you see it hasn't changed much over the years.
The four post bed, her dresser, closet, even her old toy chest is still here.
The only thing that is different are the bookshelves with all sorts of books and items that have been collected over time.
You're sure you've read every one of her books.
Dad always say you got your love of books from mom.
Your love of comics came from dad.
”Now lets see here.” Applebloom says as she walks to the nearest bookshelf.
”Ah nope, not that one. Not this one either. Ah found it. 'Star Ponies:Book V'.”
Taking the book from her hooves you hold it tight against your chest.
“Thank you Applebloom! I've been waiting for this one to come out. I loved the first book.”
”Ain't no problem Glimmer. What else you doin tonight?”
“Not much. I gotta get home after this. Gotta talk with mom and dad.”
”Well if y'all are free after that, there's this get together happening out past the farm tonight. Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle are gonna be there, was wonderin if you wanted to come along too.”
“As tempting as that is Applebloom, I can't. Besides I'd rather start reading this book. I'm so excited!”
”Y'all really are just like your mom. Would rather leave then hang out with friends.”
“I'm not that much like my mom. I like to hang out too.”
Applebloom rustles your hair with her hoof.
”Yeah sure ya do. Well if you wanna come later just pop by. Just past the south field.”
Straightening your hair back you reply “Don't count on it Applebloom.”
”Alrighty then but don't say I didn't offer.”
“Thanks, I gotta get going though.”
”Alright, just try and take it easy. Don't need you blowing up again like today.”
“Thanks for what you did earlier. I'm actually about to go talk to my mom about that. Dad's gonna try and get me some free time in my schedule.”
”Well good luck with that Glimmer. Hope it works out.”
“Mhm, thanks again Applebloom.”
”Anytime.”
After exchanging your goodbyes with a hug you start heading back home.
Out the door, down the stairs, and with a wave to Applejack who was in the kitchen you take your leave from the Apple family.
With a new book begging to be read, you head back to the castle.
Maybe this day isn't so bad.
…................................................
Still Glimmer and you finally made it back home.
Walking through the main doors you greet the guard with a nod.
He just stands at attention.
That seems to be all they do.
Now to look for mom and dad.
If you were to guess, they would be in the study.
Mom is always in there.
You love reading but mom takes it to a whole different level.
Walking down the hallway to the door you can hear your parents voices.
”I may not understand magic Twi, but I understand our daughter.”
”And you're ssaying I don't!?”
Uh oh, seems like they're arguing.
And about you.
You never liked it when they argue.
Might as well get in there, mom can be stubborn sometimes.
”I think were getting a little off topic.”
”No, I think were right on topic! This is what you wanted to talk about right? How our little girl is gonna be a failure!”
What?
“Twilight you've had enough.”
”I know when I have had enough!”
You suddenly heard a loud thunk sound followed by something heavy hitting the ground.
“Mom? Dad? Dad!”
Rounding the corner you see your dad on the ground and a trickle of blood coming from his head.
Your mom is standing over him.
What did she do to dad!?
You are Twilight Sparkle.
And in your drunken state you just lost control of your magic.
You threw a wine bottle at your husband and hit him in the eye.
Anon fell back and hit his head on the table that was behind him.
Oh Celestia,you're an abusive spouse now!
Anon is bleeding!
No no no! This isn't what you wanted!
Running over to Anon you stand over him and try to see where he hit his head.
“Oh Celestia, Anon! Say something!”
As you look over Anon you hear someone shout behind you.
Turning around you see Glimmer standing there with a panicked look on her face.
No! This makes things even worse.
Your daughter just watched you hit your husband.
Glimmer comes running to Anon's side.
”Mom what did you do!?”
“I just...I didn't mean to!”
”Mean to do what!?”
“I lost control of my magic and hit him.”
”Why in Tartarus did you hit dad!?”
“I said I didn't mean to Glimmer!”
An angry expression comes over Glimmers face.
”Oh so you didn't mean to lose control of your magic! What is wrong with you!?”
The wine, still doing its job and this outburst of hers starts to get you going.
“Wrong with me!? You're the one who started all this!”
Glimmer stands up.
”Me!? You're the one that just hit dad!”
Standing up yourself, you can't take it anymore.
All the anger you held down comes back and boils over.
“Well if you wouldn't have just said those terrible things today and actually studied like your supposed to then I wouldn't be drinking and none of this would have happened!”
”You're drunk mom! Well that's just perfect!”
You interrupt her yelling with your own yelling.
“Don't you DARE criticize me for what I'm doing! All you had to do was be a good little girl and everything would have been fine! You could have already been mastering your magic by now but NO! All you want to fucking do is goof around with your friends and after all I've done for you! You should be grateful to have my lessons!”
Seems like your husbands words are rubbing off on you.
The sounds of a twig snapping could be heard.
Glimmer looks at you with a fury you've never seen before.
Through gritted teeth you hear Glimmer say “All you've done for me!? All you've done for me is teach me a bunch of garbage that done nothing but make my life worse!”
Worse!? How dare she say that!
“Worse! Magic birthed you, you stupid child! Magic is everything!”
”No it's not! Ever since I found out I could do magic you changed! Do you even know how much my life has changed since then!”
What!
“Change? You don't even know the meaning of change! My life changed once I had you! Do you even know what I had to sacrifice and deal with in my life because of you and your father! How often I was called the mother of a mutant creature! How often the nobles in Canterlot ridicule me for loving my husband! Even telling my own mother that I was marrying a creature not even from this planet!”
Glimmer take a step back as a surprised expression washes over her.
But you're not going to let up. Not this time!
“I could have been so much more then just this but after fell in love with your father we decided to have you! I said goodbye to all that I could have been!”
A mix of sadness and anger comes over Glimmer's face.
”Well I'm sorry I fucked up your life you stupid horse!”
THAT'S IT!
“You fucked it up the second you were born! I wish I never drank that potion!”
A few seconds of silence pass and only your breathing could be heard from yelling so much.
Wait...what did you just say?
A realization hits you.
Looking up at Glimmer you see tears strolling down her cheeks.
You just told your daughter you wish she was never born.
Oh Celestia...
”I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!”
Tears of your own are starting to form.
“No! I just...”
Suddenly a hand comes across your face.
Whirling around you hit the floor.
Bringing a hoof up to your stinging face.
Glimmer just slapped you.
Turning around you see Glimmer running out the door as fast as she could run.
No...this isn't what you meant at all.
Tears now falling from your eyes.
“I'm a terrible mother.”
You gasp as you remember Anon.
“Anon!”
Running over to him you cup his face in your hooves.
“I'm so sorry Anon! Please be ok.”
Spinning around you stand up and run to the door.
“Guards! Guards! Guards!”
First is Anon and making sure he's ok.
Then you'll find Glimmer.
That is if she ever talks to you again.
As the guards come running down the hall you can feel your tears falling again.
One of the guards asks “What is it princess!”
“My husband!” you say as you point your hoof to Anon who's still on the floor.
The guard yells back to the other ones “Get a carriage quick! You grab the stretcher!”
”Don't worry princess well get the prince to the hospital right away!”
You fall the your knees by the door still crying as the guards run into the study.
You're a terrible mother.
What will Anon say?
