>You are Anon, and it's been about five weeks since the Alicorns' first breeding session
>Their foals are due any time now
>You guess that each dam will produce no more than three foals, so you'll have six new Alicorns
"Mint need make big poopies!"
"It's okay, Mint, it's just the babies."
"Babbehs! Am gon be mummeh! Wiww be best mummeh evah!"
>If it wasn't for the fact that they haven't killed themselves, you'd swear they're the same as normal fluffies
>You help Mint through the birthing process, and sure enough, she has three foals
>All of them are Alicorns
>Two females and a male
>You give her a cookie once she's cleaned and fed the foals
"Wuv babbehs..."
>Two days later, Lily gives birth
>She has a litter of four
>This litter is half and half
"Perfect...I can use these females for breeding."
>You feel lightning tug on your shirt
"Mawcus...Wightning can see babbehs now, wight?"
>Shit...you forgot Alicorns actually give half a shit
>You decide to let him
"Sure thing, Lightning."
"Wightning! Wook at aww mah babbehs! You gif best speshuw hugs!"
>They nuzzle for a bit, exchanging baby talk
>Soon, Lightning falls asleep next to Lily and her babies
"Hey, Anon...next time you dust make sure you get it all...got some in my eye..."
"Yeah, sure Marcus...must've missed alot..."
>You know that you're both touched by the display, but work must be done
>The shop is relatively quiet for the next few weeks
>People come and go, adopting your normal fluffies
>You and Marcus are careful not to let anyone see the Alicorns yet
>That's a secret for now
>But of course, it won't be for long
>Now, it's about time to prepare the new foals for breeding
>They'll be fully matured in about two or three weeks, and it's time to separate them
"Jeez...I always hate doing this with the normal fluffies...I don't even want to know how these guys will take it."
"Me either, Anon...but it's part of the job..."
>You volunteer to be the one to handle it this time
>You enter the Alicorn room and give all the fluffies cookies
"Alright, Lily, Mint...I know you love your babies, but..."
"Wah Anon tawk bout...babbehs nu go way...need wuv an foodies..."
>They're definitely smarter than normal fluffies
"I know, but they're old enough to be away from their parents now..."
>Lightning steps forward
"NU! NU TAKE WIWY AN WIGHTNING BABBEHS!"
>He puffs his cheeks, spreads his wings and sparks his horn
>Lily takes her foals to the far corner of her cage
"I hate to do this, but I have to, Lightning."
>You easily move him to an empty cage
>You reach your hand in to grab the foals from Lily
"NUUUU! NU TAKE BABBEHS!"
>She is sobbing at this point
>It takes a few minutes, but you manage to take all four of her foals
>They cry out for their parents, but you have no choice to ignore them
>You put the struggling Lightning back into the cage with Lily
>They both cry together
>Mint takes the process even worse than Lily did
>She saw you take away Lily's foals, and she does not want the same to happen to her
>You make a mental note to separate the cages before doing this next time
>Mint cowers in a corner of her cage, huddling together with her babies
"PWEASE NU TAKE BABBEHS!"
"I hate doing this, Mint, but I have to take your foals."
"Nuhuhuhu...pwease, nu take babbehs..."
>She's beyond consolable now
>You reach in and she does everything in her power to stop you
>She bites your hand, shoots sparks at you, kicks you, everything
>You manage to get her foals out of the cage
"NUUU! MUMMEH NU WET MUNSTAH TAKE US!"
"Hey, little guy, calm down...we're not monsters, we just want you to be taken care of."
>They continue crying out as you bring them to Marcus
"Here they are, last three of them."
"Good...I hope those two get over this...Lily's still a wreck."
>You look over to see Lily lying in her cage, silently crying
>Lightning tries to console her, but it does no good
>A normal fluffy would have forgotten about its babies being taken within a few hours
>Looks like these two will need some time
"Whewe babbehs go...Wiwy wan babbehs...was good mummeh..."
"Wightning hewe, Wiwy...pwease be happy 'gain..."
>Make that a lot of time
