Riddle me this
Lunch break
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe Cakes had seen some weird things in their life, but what was in front of them took the cake. Princess Celestia was smiling sweetly at them, behind her Princess Luna was pinching Spike's Cheeks, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash stood behind them and a Sphinx was standing in their ranks, Towering over all of them and glancing over at Spike and Luna every now an again.
"Can I take your order?" Mr.Cake asked while his Wife stared dumbfounded. Celestia waved them off
"We'll just be a moment," she said happily.
"Your mother cooled down fast." Sphinx noted, "I was expecting her to explode or something."
"Oh, she did." Luna replied, still mushing up Spike's face "She left burn marks all throughout Canterlot castle."
"So how'd did...this happen?" Rainbow asked, motioning to Spike and Sphinx. "Is this, like a slave thing? Should I go get Somnambula and ask her for help on this? What...what should my reaction to this be?" she asked all her questions to Fluttershy, who shrugged.
"Spike's reforming her, just give it some time to get used to her, and don't talk about Discord."
"I heard that," Sphinx said simply.
"What's your beef with Discord?" Rainbow decided to ask since the button had apparently already been pushed.
"He stuck me in his chaos Dimension for hundreds of years, said some rude things, also he's just an overall rude creature." Rainbow began saying something but Spike jumped in.
"So Starlight's the Maid of Honor." he blurted out.
"Oh really?" Celestia asked, "You know I thought you'd go for her in the long run."
"We're considering a herd." The Sphinx said casually.
"Spike you're a horny spaz." Rainbow laughed
"It was her idea!" Spike shot back.
"Sure it was," Rainbow replied still laughing.
"I hear laughing!" Pinkie declared popping out over the counter, she took one look at the group in front of her and didn't even blink. "Are you ready to order yet?"
"Pinkie's here, I'm bailing out." Mrs.Cake decided, her husband following close behind as they retreated into the kitchen.
"One Vanilla cake." Celestia said simply.
"If it weren't for Alicorn Metabolisms my sister would be rounder than a drum," Luna whispered, getting a chuckle from Spike, the two instantly turned to look at the window when Celestia glared at them.
"Don't think you're not still in trouble." Celestia said, "I was quite miffed with Cadance when she waited to tell me about her wedding until..." Spike's eyes went wide.
"Oh shit, I forgot to tell Cadance." Celestia blinked at her.
"Oh, never mind then she'll be ripping you a new one for that." Spike sighed.
"Sphinx could you..."
"I just sent invitations to all your friends, long distance or close, and family." as she finished saying that the entire group around them suddenly had an invitation in their hands.
"Oh cool!" Pinkie said as she held up her's "It even has my name on it, and look at the address line! To Pinkie, at Sugar Cuber Corner, behind the counter, taking orders!"
"To Cunt." Rainbow said simply looking at her's "Spike I Like your wife." Rainbow said cracking a smile.
"To Cheek pincher." Luna read before she looked back at the Sphinx "If you had a problem with it you should have just said something."
"To Mother in law." Celestia read, "Oh yeah, I haven't even said hello to you yet have I?"
"You haven't," The Sphinx confirmed when she added, "And I would like 4 Reubens" Celestia sat at a table and patted next to her, The Sphinx shrunk down and sat next to her, now at her exact hight.
"So what do you see in my son?"
"I see a Dragon who beat me in my own game and tried to comfort me afterward," She smiled when she added "And his body's none too shabby," Celestia nodded before going one.
"Do you know his favorite color? his age? any of his hobbies?"
"Favorite color is gold, 27 years, 7 months, 14 days, 12 hours, he collects Power Pony comics and owns every Power Pony related Game that has ever come out, with the exception of one, which I am going to get him for his Heart Warming." The look on Celestia's face was one of absolute joy, she gave a squeal and hugged the Sphinx. "Yeah I guessed you where worried I'd only be into your son because of his position." Sphinx said bluntly "But I want to be clear that I am incapable of doing that unless Spike tries to overthrow you." as she began explaining to Celestia how the Magic contract worked Spike had just finished explaining it to Rainbow, Pinkie, and Luna.
"...and now we're just together." Spike finished simply,
"Whoa." Rainbow said, "Just, dude wow." she shook her head as she processed what that meant "So, you basically have a sex slave?"
"She's not a sex slave." Spike spat back.
"Really?" Rainbow asked, "Because from what you just told us..."
"Ok she might be in a position of Slavery at the moment, but she's the one who usually starts the funny business!" Fluttershy turned away and pretended not to hear as Pinkie joined in the conversation.
"Oh? what kind of funny business?" She asked with a chuckle "Have you and her played the Hokey Pokey yet?"
"I can't tell if that's a Metaphor or if you misunderstand the situation." Spike replied, "but in either case, the answer to that is no."
"Oh! Waiting for the big night are we?" Rainbow asked, "That's good, she'll be under locked down with magic and legally so she can't run away from you after she gets a peek under the curtains." Spike had a comeback but lost it once he processed what she had said.
"What in Tartarus is that suppose to mean?" Spike asked. Rainbow shrugged
"Well, it's not exactly a secret that you...overweight."
"Excuse me?" Spike asked looking down at his Hoodie. "I'm not fat, you're looking at my body, I'm..."
"Spike you can wear a girdle all you want, but I've seen you laze around the castle..."
"Rainbow the last time you saw me shirtless was before I hit Puberty like 12 years ago!" the two began arguing back and forth, after a minute Celestia and Sphinx noticed the exchange.
"I'm taking this from you off all ponies?" Spike demanded, "So we're just pretending you didn't gain those 20 pounds 4 years back when Spitfire left you?"
"I lost that weight!" Rainbow shot back. "And that was a low blow bringing that shit up, even for you!"
"And I lost my Baby Fat, but here we are!" before Rainbow could snap Back the Sphinx raised behind Spike, and without a word pulled his shirt over his head. Spike gave muffled complain and Rainbow looked at his 6 pack.
"Oh!" Pinkie said as she saw it "I see a Dragon who's worked his weight off!" The Sphinx let go and Spike pulled his shirt back down.
"Please don't call him fat." The Sphinx asked, "Because I honestly think he thinks he might be overweight and your badgering isn't helping." The Sphinx lowered back behind Spike and was once again sitting next to Celestia.
"So when's the ceremony?" Celestia asked.
"We haven't decided yet" The Sphinx replied as Rainbow stood awkwardly in front of Spike.
"Sorry about that," Rainbow muttered, Spike took a breath.
"I'm sorry I brought Spitfire up." Spike replied, "That was not ok of me." Spike offered her his hand "What say I pay for your meal and we call this even." Rainbow smiled as she accepted his hand.
"Alright, but I get to pay for your meal."
