"So how was it?" Gilda hated that question, it had been at least the 20th time in an hour, but Rainbow Dash is consistent with trying to get an answer. "I told you Dash, I was black out drunk I can't remember a thing. The only thing I can tell you is that I could barely feel my legs when I woke up." 'Good thing Spike is with Celestia, we would both never hear the end of it.' she though. The answer seeming to have calmed Rainbow down a bit, allowing Gilda to eat her waffles in peace. "Wow these waffles are great." she said to no one in particular, she was just happy her hangover was dying down.

Twilight allowed herself to be heard saying, "Yes, they are. So, Gilda, will I be expecting you to move into the castle with us?"

Gilda hadn't thought of that, an entire castle as her home sounded nice though she had to admit. She had been bunking with Rainbow Dash for a couple years having finally leaving Griffonstone. Pinkie having convinced the Cake family to sell her scones in their shop, and an actual job as a delivery girl as she could fly. She had made a decent amount of bits, enough for an apartment at least, as she had been looking. She had been inside the castle many times, and it was huge, how only 2 ponies and a dragon actually maintained the place was a mystery. "I hadn't really thought about it honesty. Spike and I haven't really had a chance to talk yet."

"Well he has been with Celestia for a while, maybe they are planning a party!" Pinkie smiled. "Since you guys said something about it I've had fourteen million six hundred and five ideas since then!" she had a twinkle in her eyes, she was planning something, and anyone who saw it knew.

"Well I may know of a good way to announce it." Celestia spoke suddenly. Everyone in the room jumped and looked to her."The Grand Galloping Gala is in 2 weeks, you are all invited per usual. Also, Gilda, we must speak, and no worries I will be gentle." With a small spark from the solar princess horn and white flash the griffon and alicorn were gone. At the same moment Spike came back to the table.

"Hey guys, where's Gilda?"

Meanwhile, Gilda had appeared in a grand room, the walls were white and sparkling clean, the windows showed pictures in magnificent color. Looking to one she had spotted a purple dragon, a look of glee on his face surrounded by ponies, and a magnificent blue heart over his head, "That was one of his finest moments." Gilda had jumped at the voice. looking behind her she saw Celestia, in a grand throne. "The savior of a nation, he had jumped off a castle about the size of mine to get it. No idea of how he was even gonna save himself, he still jumped." Celestias eyes never left Gildas. "What I am getting at is that he has a big heart, and he has been hurt before. Now I am not trying to threaten you, scare you, or run you off, my son has forbid from doing so." with that she stood and walked to the griffon. The size difference causing the alicorn to look down to her. "But what I am doing is saying that I hope you do know what you are doing. I am giving you my trust with my son, because I trust him. Don't make me regret it?"

Gilda could only nod to Celestia, the half question half command came with a new look in alicorns eye. A fire, it felt like it was searching Gildas very soul while burning it simultaneously. "Alright, tell Spike I said that his present is in his room in Twilights castle. A mass stockpile of assorted gems like he asked." The solar princess could switch from threat to mom level so quickly, or was it all just mom level? Gilda was confused, even more so that in a flash of light she was back at the table with Spike and the others looking at her.

Spike smiled, "So how was it?"

Author's Note

These 'Come To Mama' chapters will kind of act like an intermission throughout the story, not all will just be one on one. There will be groups, unusual picks and even the moods will change, these chapters will not be longer that 1000 words. The only constant in them will be Celestia as a character throughout them

Sorry for the wait, and the sorta crappy chapter, you deserve better than this from me and you will get it. New chapter every week on the weekend, and that is a guarantee. If I dont then message me and I will be there.
