"Hey!" I whispered as I tapped the glass. "Hey little guy and gal! I'm your daddy! Don't give me that face, young lady." I said with a smile. "Hey you! Yes you little guy! I'm your...."

"Sir! Do not tap that glass! I've told you this 4 times!" The nurse scolded me for the fourth time.

"Sorry, when can I see them?" I asked anxious to see my own babies.

"I'm about to wheel them into your wife's room, if you want I can unlock this door and let you ogle at other babies." She teased as she opened the door and went in to get the babies. She wheeled them out on a padded cart, and I followed.

When we got to the new room Celestia had been moved to, I found that Celestia was quite happy.

"Seethe! Oh, you brought our babies!" Celestia said with a wide smile upon seeing the babies and I.

I went to the bed and leaned in and kissed Celestia.

"We should decide their names now that your feeling better."  I said. I went over to the cart and lifted my daughter out carefully. I slowly walked over to Celestia and let her take the new born in her hooves. Celestia gently rocked her daughter. The newborn made a few funny sounding gurgles towards her mother.

"Koochie koochie koo!" Celestia said as she tickled the baby with her right fore hoof.

The baby giggled. However her giggle had incredible rhythm. Like a good peaceful song.

Celestia had heard it too, and apparently thought up a name. "Spring Song?" Celestia said looking at me.

The baby laughed.

"She likes it." I said "Well girl, that's your name." with a smile.

There was a bright flash from behind me. I flipped around to see a few members of the paparazzi struggling to get past thee royal guards who were guarding the room.

"Celestia plug the babies ears, I'm going to go use my 'Angry' words." I said.

I went out of the room and closed the sliding glass door to it behind me. The guards were struggling with the many paparazzi, who went crazy when I came into view.

I took a deep breath and then went on an angry word rant. Using my new and improved EXTREMELY ANGRY Royal voice.

"I AM GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE ALL OF YOU ****** ******* ******** **** ******* YOUR ****** AND THEN CALL ************ BECAUSE YOUR MOTHER WILL BE ********** ******* TONIGHT!"

I switched back to my normal voice.

"....Or I'll give you to the count of 3 to get out of this hospital."

The reporters got out quickly. Most of them looking hurt. Others afraid and others taking photos while they wrote everything I just said in their notepads as they left.

"Thanks." one of the guards said "Ruddy vultures"

"No problem. If any of them come back......deadly force." I said patting the guard and smiling as I went back in the room.

As I opened the door I smelt an extremely foul odor. "Gahhhhhh! What is that!?" I exclaimed as I put my hoof to my nose.

"Spring.....made.....you something." Celestia said plugging her nose with the bed covers.

"I get first diaper?" I asked "That ain't fair. I think I should get the even diapers and you get the odd ones." I said in a nasally voice as I plugged my nose.

Celestia gave me a face that said 'Really?'.

"Fine." I said as I took Spring Song from Celestia and setting her down on the cart next to her brother. Who's horn glowed and a little bolt of lightning shot out and hit the ceiling.

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaa!" I said as the little flicker shot past me.

Celestia giggled "I guess we have a  name for him too."

"Yeah, Lightning Flicker." I said as I began to change the diaper from Spring Song.


2 days later.

"Ba da da da da da" I sang as I pushed a dual baby carrier through the bedroom doorway. I looked at Celestia as she stepped in. Her rear legs nearly came out from under her in a  split. She caught herself and stood again.

"Still jelly legs?" I asked.

"Yes." She said.

I pushed the carrier towards Celestia's desk. Then went back to help Celestia.

I helped her to our bed. She laid on her back and I pulled the covers up to her chest.

"Hello Sister, hello Seethe." Luna said from behind me at the door. I turned around.

"Good morning." I said with a smile.

"Twilight Sparkle is here." Luna said coming into the bedroom and letting Twilight in. "She also brought her friends."

They all came in too.

"Jeez, you all here to see the babies?" I asked.

"Umm....yes." Fluttershy said trying to avoid eye contact.

"They're right over here." I said walking over to the baby carrier and turning it around so Twilight and her friends could see the babies.

A large flood of "Awes" came over the babies. Spring Song giggled. Lighting Flicker gave a sneeze.

"They're so cute!" Pinkie squealed bouncing up an down.

"Ah think that one likes ya, Fluttershy" Applejack said as Fluttershy smiled at Spring Song.

"Umm...Mr.Seethe? Can I ask why you look so tired?" Twilight asked.

I didn't really realize it until then, but I was tired. Solo baby care is hard work!

"Well, while Celestia is recovering from giving birth to these two ,I've been up late a bit taking care of them." I admitted, now feeling instantly tired.

"Darling, you really must let one of us take these two off your hooves so you can rest too. You look a mess!" Rarity said noticing my mess of a mane and purely exhausted body language.

"Yeah, I could use a nap..." I sniffed myself "Uhhghhh......I smell like baby powder." I grumbled "Who wants to babysit them for the weekend? Just....don't actually sit on them."

Fluttershy stepped up and made eye contact with me "Could I? I take care of baby animals all the time. And I usually have alot of free time."

"Sure." I said with a smile "Alright, if anypony needs me I'm going to sleep, now." I said turning 180 degrees and practically jumping in bed.
