Of course! We look forward to introducing them to you, as well as to Type’s children and the Avenger’s filly.
We don’t think We’d be comfortable having Our children watched by one of Celestia’s champions. Even if Fluttershy wouldn’t think to abuse that position, We are sure Celestia would.
Ah, hello Vriska. We have some news. First, as you may have heard, We are pregnant. Second, We have a formal dinner planned that We want you and your servants to attend.
(Vriska’s expression twists as she hears the news, but she manages to maintain an only very slightly forced-looking grin. She glances very briefly, pupils glowing faintly, in the direction of the nearest instance of Arcel, her mind screaming “traitor”, but says nothing.)
Well, We had originally planned to have it tonight, but the pregnancy and ensuing chaos has made Us decide to postpone it until tomorrow evening. Be sure to dress finely, and tell your followers to do so as well. Especially that one with the cracked glasses. Just between Us, We don’t think to highly of his style.
You will be seated along with the other of Our closest advisors at the head of the table. *She gets out a seating chart, that puts Vriska at NMM’s left, across the table from Arcel.*
What do you mean by ‘corruptive bias’?
Hmm… Bloodthirsty pirates aren’t quite as trustworthy as babysitters as warmechs, but they are good role models. We might just take you up on your offer.
Well, to you (as well as anypony else suggesting names), We should really discuss names with Arcel before deciding. And anyway, the foals won’t be born for quite some time yet. There is plenty of time to decide.
Oh, that? We will not damage a valuable servant over such a small slip.
You may kiss Our hooves instead, as penance.
Well, the test says We’re going to have fillies, so it seems this timeline has deviated from his.
Good. From what We hear, nothing is more valuable to a new mother than a reliable babysitter.
That is less than ideal, but if that is all that can be done We suppose it will work… We will make available to you the required components, and have Our servants fashion containment areas for the portals to lead to.
