Creatures Gone Liminal: Outer Limits
Epilogue
Previous ChapterFlurry stood in the middle of the large room. A waterfall fell down into a small river the went from one side to the other. Sky windows could be seen letting light in while the tiles walls were a faded white. There was a wooden double door on one side and a single glass door on the other. June was currently resting, Flurry carrying her on her back, piggyback style, her hands helping to hold her up.
Juicy examined the room. "So, you are thinking here? For your first house?"
"Yes but not just that but possibly this all could be expanded as well. Maybe each room could have a house connected to it. Might have to remove some walls, combine some rooms... That river seems to run through multiple rooms that look similar to this one so it could work." The Alicorn said while looking around.
The Changeling slapped her hands together as magic began to weave itself around her. "Alright, I will help set up a base for now but your house will be all your own. Do you have a plan in mind?"
"Yep..." Flurry said with a smile. "Here is what I am thinking."
***
Flurry laid in a small tent, the base of her house nearby now well setup. She had the floorplan in mind, just needed to figure out how conjuration magic works here and how to assemble things from objects that already exist within the world. So long as it is available, it can be called upon. She stared up at the darkened ceiling, the lights now off. The room was mostly dark save for a small battery powered lantern that Juicy had left for them. June was currently sleeping next to her, deep underneath the blanket. Her lover had been helping her stay grounded while learning this new magical process but it apparently took a lot out of her. At least for right now, Juicy seemed to hint that it would become easier with time. Not to mention the crazy amount of walking and exploring they had to do just to find the place.
Thoughts of what life was going to be like, the anxiety of it all starting to creep in. But just as quickly as it came, her lover, even subconsciously, seemed to sense this and squeezed her just a bit tighter, feeling her warm body ease her mind once more. Flurry caressed her Changedling's back, soon finding sleep as well.
***
The Alicorn wandered through the house, feeling a bit exhausted but excited. She had just finished. It took several tries across several days but eventually she was able to conjure everything together. Just past the front door was a small foyer. To the left was some stairs heading up to two bedrooms and a small bathroom.
To the right was a small hallway heading to a living room and kitchen area. The living room mostly consisted of a couch, a few chairs and a table. A small fire place lay in front of where the furniture was facing. The fire was fake and could be turned on and off but could blow heat at least in case something needed to be dried. The kitchen housed a stove, fridge and oven. A counter island sat between the living room and kitchen. Just past that where two doors. To the left a master bedroom with a large bed, wardrobe and mirror. Straight on ahead was a door to the master bathroom, a large tub, walk in shower, sink with a mirror and toilet. The walls were made of stacked wood to make it almost feel like a large cabin.
June stood outside, arms crossed, admiring the place while Flurry soon joined her. "What do you think? Not a bad place to start a family, huh?"
June quickly nodded. "Yeah, I could get used to this. Sure beats sharing a tiny home with your very awkward family."
"Oh and..." Flurry snapped her fingers and focus on the open area next to there house. With a flash, a large pool appeared with a diving board. "Gotta have that in a place like this. To help teach swimming to the next generation and maybe taking a dip when we just want to relax."
Juicy came out from the wall through a door that had just appeared. She whistled while looking over the home. "Not bad at all. I'm almost impressed at how detailed you managed to become in such a short amount of time. You've only been here a few months and already got conjuration and transformation down well."
Flurry gave a slight bow. "I learned from the best." She reached out and hugged June close to her body. "Also helps that I have a such a cute catalyst to help keep me focused." Flurry felt her lover softly kiss her neck as she felt a slight warmth go across her face. Doing her best to not want to turn around and start making out with her, she instead turned back to the house. "This should suffice to help insure we have enough room for the next of kin, whenever I manage to get knocked up after the crazy amount of sex we have had so far."
"Speaking of which, you have told her how Changedling's reproduce right? Its a little different than what you might be expecting." Juicy pointed out.
June blushed and whispered into Flurry's ear. The Alicorn soon blushed herself. "Wait... Eggs? There can be how many?! What does Larval mean? They are like larval? Soft... What? Ok... Just one most likely though... I see."
The Alicorn took a step back in shock. "Ok... So at least the process doesn't sound too bad though I have to admit the end journey sounds... Weird."
June let out a small laugh and pointed to her horn. "Would you rather you try to push them out like mammals while dealing with these?"
"On second thought, maybe pushing out a green somewhat squishy egg or eggs may not be so bad."
June softly pushed against her own breasts. "I won't lie though, I do sometimes wonder where the percent of mammal and bug begins and ends when it comes to our species."

Flurry hummed a soft tune as she worked to make up a stack of pancakes, the final batch almost finished. She only wore a apron that said Fresh Buns with arrows pointing up. Her belly pushed against it having started to show a rather decent sized bump. June gave a groggy morning as she entered the room, softly kissing her lover on the cheek before softly running her hands along the Alicorn's breasts.
"I think they got bigger." The Changedling whispered to her.
"I think you might be right." She set down the spatula and turned off the heat. She grasped her own breasts, then moved both their hands down to her belly and smiled. "I can feel them growing. Got to be what? Three or four of them?"
June softly ran her hands up and down. "I am amazed it may even be that much. Normally Changedling's will lay several but I have never heard of anyone managing to lay more than one with a non-Changedling. Must be those Alicorn genes. Probably have a way of working with any and every species in some small way."
"Luck or the will of fate, who knows. All I do know is that even after 8 months of living here with you, I still don't regret this. Not once. Learning so much about how magic works around here, starting a new life, beginning to build something here. I can't wait to see what the future holds..."
June kissed her neck and placed her hands around the Alicorn's apron, untying it and letting it fall to the ground. With that out of the way, she had free access to softly start kissing her lover's neck, hands traveling down her thighs. "Well in the mean time, lets enjoy breakfast, maybe take a walk, have some sex, then maybe see how our friends are doing."
Flurry shivered at the touch. "Might have to do some of those out of order..." She let out a soft moan.
June grinned. "Sounds good to me. Though speaking of our friends, have you noticed Ruby has been acting weird lately? Like weirder than most Dragons in their mid 20s?"

A Few Months Later
Flurry sat on the bench in the walk-in shower exhausted. Slim covered eggs sat in the bath tub as June and Juicy looked them over. "You did great, Flurry." June said while closely examining the eggs.
"Yeah? I can safely say, that felt weird. Like trying to push out large, soft, squishy fruit. Felt weirdly good but also super strange. At least it didn't hurt nearly as much as it could have."
Juicy glanced up. "That would be the pheromones the eggs give off. Its suppose to make the process quick and mostly painless. Just don't be surprised if you are feeling both sore and insanely horny later."
The Alicorn gave a thumbs up as she continued to rest against the wall. Her lover looked up at Juicy. "She was right, four eggs. All perfectly healthy. Just need to incubate them in a warm place for 2 weeks until they hatch."
The Alicorn took a another deep breath. "Gotta wonder now... If the process for laying Dragon eggs are better or worse? Ruby is going to be finding out either way soon. Who knew it would be Wave and his apparently super fertile sperm? Aqua and Saph seem to considering trying as well. With how much sex those two do, I am not sure what trying even means..." She closed her eyes. "Oh my gosh... This is your life now Flurry... Gotta really start planning for the future."
20 Years Later
Flurry and June stood next to each other, admiring the small village on a virtual map in the Garden.
June examined it closely. "You know it really is amazing, this water's healing and rejuvenating effects? Its gonna keep all of us looking, feeling and just all around being young and spry for much longer. Don't be surprised when Button, that freaking horndog, is still plowing and planting so to speak when most would be looking at retiring by the time he reaches that age.
"Speaking of plow and planting... Lets go over the census." The Alicorn said while taking out a piece of paper. Both were dressed in loin clothes with a single wrap around their breasts. "We have our 3 daughters and one son. We have Ruby and Wave's twin daughters, Saph and Aqua's two sons and Smolders two eggs that we don't know who the father is yet because of that three way with Gallus and Button. It seems Ocellus and Sweetie Bell joined in later but no results?"
She double checked her list. "Oh right, speaking of, almost forgot about Silverstream and her recent pregnancy thanks to that same eventual orgy." She squinted and read in a monotone voice. "Cross breeding... Absolutely fascinating."
June placed a hand on her shoulder. "Still a little miffed we never had an Alicorn, huh?"
She sighed and rubbed her eyes, setting down the paper. "Could still happen. We still have plenty of time to try."
The two stood in silence before June looked back at Flurry and grinned. "Wanna try right now?"
"On the table?"
"Like you read my mind."

200 Years Later
Flurry stood in front of a fairly large bustling village, rivers flowing between houses. The room so massive that it was hard to even notice the walls or ceiling above. Various species, some of mixed breed, mingled and worked together. Some farmed while other built. Some went off to explore while others stayed home to design what they could with whatever was brought back.
The Alicorn watched over them, clad in a brown poncho, a sort of fashion statement among the village. Something that could be slipped out of quickly for swimming purposes but could still provide a little decency. Also super easy to make and doesn't have to use up too much fabric. Though usually only a few chose to wear it due to its rarity. It was still a casual nudist society. Still though... She was happy to see the fruits of her labor. Glad to have the chance to see how they would continue to grow. June soon came up next to her and gave her a little elbow.
"Didn't think we would be standing here like this in 200 or so years, huh?"
She turned and looked around them. "I am also willing to bet... Didn't expect that Changedlings could possibly start rivaling an Alicorn if given the proper place, love and wonderful mate. Our scientists think I am going to live to see 500 or something. Gonna assume the Entity had a hand-er-uh tentacle in that."
Flurry shook her head. "Didn't expect I would be looking back on my choice... And still deciding it was right one." She looked back at her lover, still young looking, sexy, beautiful. Just a lot more wise and outgoing.
"Well, I still have no regrets... Other than maybe a small one... That I never got to see what your old world looked like... Until now."
The Alicorn perked up a bit. "They got it working? The mirror... Is it really connected?"
"It is... But are you sure you want to have a look? It could have been longer out there. Even a few more hundred possibly. While I am sure your alicorn mom and aunty are still around, they may not even be in the same spot any more. Are you really sure you want to look back now?"
Flurry thought for a moment. "You know what. You are right. I am in much too good of a mood right now. Maybe later. But right now, I just want to take in the achievements."
"How about some lunch and some cuddle time?"
The Alicorn smiled and nodded. "That sounds wonderful."

Author's Note
There will be a few bonus chapters but for now, this is it. Hope you all enjoyed.
I thought about having them find out all the magic vanished back in their world at this point and deciding their realm was better left unconnected, but felt like that ending would be a real downer. So I am going to leave it vague. Personally, I still am not a big fan of how things shook out in G5 considering how good of an ending G4 was.
