"What do you think would be a good name for her Fluttershy"?
>She doesn't respond, but continues to look at the whatever it is sleeping on your lap.
>You snap your fingers in front of her face to get her attention.
"Hello?  Fluttershy, are you there"?
>The Pegasus pony breaks from her daze to look up at you, a worried look on her face.
>She points a hoof accusingly at your lap.
>"Do you know what that thing is Anon?"
>You thought for a second before responding.
"I'm not really sure Fluttershy, but she is awfully cute".
>"It's a draconequus, like Discord".
>You turn your head to Fluttershy, careful not to disturb the sleeping draconequus on your lap.
"So, that doesn't mean little Caroline will turn out like Discord"
>"Caroline"?
"Why not, I always liked the name"
>"But it's an agent of Discord, the safe thing to do would be to hand it over to Twilight"
>The use of the word "it" gets on your nerves.
"Her name's Caroline".
>You probably said that with to much volume as fluttershy shrinks back a little bit, and you feel Caroline stir in your lap.
>"I'm sorry Anon, but Caroline can be dangerous, who know's what she is capable of"
>You calm down noticeably but are surprised to see...Caroline's head poking out from under Fluttershy's  mane?
>You look down to see your lap was empty.
>Fluttershy now seems to notice your empty lap as she quickly scan's over her room looking for the missing little Caroline
>"Where'd she go"?
>You can't help but laugh as Caroline struggles to hold onto the top of Fluttershy's head as she is swung back and forth
>Fluttershy notices your laughter and looks at you quizzically.
>"What's funny Anon".
>You can't get any words out, but just point to the top of her head.
>Fluttershy looks up moving a hoof toward where you were pointing.
>She freezes as Caroline comes into view upside down.
>A startled 'eep' escapes Fluttershy as Caroline leaps from her vantage point back into your lap.
>Caroline climbs up your chest and perches on your shoulder looking towards Fluttershy, a small forked tongue sticking out at her.
>A small smile even appears on the nervous pegasus's lips at the sight.  
>"Okay, maybe she isn't to dangerous, but we need to keep a close eye on her".
"Thanks Fluttershy, but I'll still need help raising her".
>"But of course Anon".
>What a Bro.

>You spend the afternoon playing with your daughter.
>From what you remember Twilight telling you about Discord, a draconequus isn't really a pet.
>Feeding her was difficult though, Fluttershy didn't have any food for Caroline, as both of you were expecting something more along the lines of a bird to hatch from the egg.
>You decide to carry little Caroline into town though, knowing Pinkie is watching the Cake twins.
>She probably has some kind of baby formula that would be perfect for Caroline.
>Placing Caroline under your jacket to keep her warm, you make your way into town.
>As you walk into town, Caroline pokes her head out the top of her jacket surveying her surroundings.
>When you get into Ponyville proper, the amount of foot traffic picks up.
>You feel other ponies eyes on you as they try to catch a better view of Caroline hiding inside your jacket.
>When you reach Sugar Cube Corner, Caroline had all but retreated into the confines of your jacket from all the stares.
>You were starting to have doubts about coming to Sugar Cube Corner, but they quickly dissolved as you got closer to the confectionery shop.
>As you open the door, a small bell chimes above your head, and you are hit with the smell of a variety of baked goods.
>Pinkie rushes to the front counter covered in flour.
"Having trouble with the Cake twins again"?
>"They're always a hoof full, what did you need Anon"?
"Well, I was hoping you could spare some baby formula, I'll pay you for what you give me".
>Pinkie gives you a questioning glance.  
>"What do you need formula for"?
"Well the egg hatched today and I w-"
>Your cut off from what you were about to say as Pinkie runs up to hug you
>"We're gonna have to throw it a party".
"HER name is Caroline, and I have her here with me".
>"Where is she"
>You go to unzip your jacket, Pinkie getting impatient to see Caroline.
>When you finally reveal her, Pinkie's expression goes from excited to confused.
>"She kind of looks like...DISCORD"
2/11
 
>You're prepared for her to get critical like Fluttershy
>Instead, Pinkie picks her up and starts talking complete nonsense to her.
>You quietly chuckle at the sight.
>Caroline although has other ideas.
>She seems mesmerized by Pinkie's mane, ignoring her baby talk completely.
>Suddenly along with the pastry smells comes a new startling smell...cotton candy?
>Caroline reaches up to pull at Pinkie's hair, taking a piece and happily chews it.
>"Hay what are-"
>She stops talking, just looking at Caroline nibbling on a piece of her hair.
>Pinkie reaches up to try a small piece for herself.
>Her eye's go wide "It tastes like cotton candy".
>As soon as it happened, Pinkie's mane returned to normal, hair growing to replace the missing bits.
"She might be more related to Discord than I previously thought".
>This should make your stay in Equestria much more interesting.

>Pinkie gives a nervous chuckle looking down at the smiling Caroline.
>"I'll go get that baby formula".
>She walks off with a nervous chuckle, leaving Caroline with you.
>You're not sure how to react, on the one hand, it was harmless, and even a little cute.
>On the other, this could cause a lot of trouble.
>Pinkie comes back returning with a few bottles of formula.
>She hands them over to you as you pass her a hand full of bits.
"Hey Pinkie, do you think Caroline could have a play date with the Cake twins, maybe tomorow"
>"I'm not sure Anon, they're a handful already, introducing her might be more trouble than I could handle"
"Don't worry Pinkie, I'll be around, besides, normal interaction with other ponies will be good for her"
>Really, you're worried that Caroline could end up like Discord, maybe if she made a few friends, you can avoid that mess.
>There's still the problem with how the Princess would react.
>"I guess one play date can't hurt"
"Thanks Pinkie, I'll bring her around tomorrow"
>You walk out of Sugar Cube Corner, being sure to keep Caroline as well hidden as possible, no need to start a riot just yet.
4/11
 
>You make your way to your house on the edge of Ponyville.
>You're not fully prepared for a child, let alone a draconequus, you don't even have a spare bed.
>Guess there is no problem with you and Caroline sharing a bed for tonight.
>You'll have to go into to town to pick up a crib....Shit, you forgot all about your job.
>Luckily tomorrow is your day off, but you'll still have to give an explanation.
>You sit down on your catch ready to feed Caroline some of the baby formula.
>Placing the bottle close to her mouth, she bites on starting to drink immediately.
>Something's wrong, she releases the bottle and looks at it curiously, she seems to be concentrating.
>The contents turn red.
>You give a little taste...strawberries?
>Caroline apparently has a bit of a sweet tooth, how are you going to get her to eat her vegetables?
>You chuckle at how silly the question is while continuing to feed Carolina her strawberry flavored formula.
>Caroline seems to have her fill as she gives a small belch.
>looking at you with bleary eyes, she give a quiet yawn.
"Time for bed little Caroline".
>Caroline gives no protest as you take her up to your bed and tuck her in beside you.

>You turn onto your back and look up at the ceiling.
>What's Caroline doing on the ceiling?
>Why is her head rotating to look at you?
>Caroline looks down at you a large smile on her face.
>D'awww how cute.
>Your sleep addled brain has trouble recognizing the danger she is in.
>Caroline is happy, what does it matter.
>You smile back up at her.
>Caroline gives a cute war cry as she lets go from your ceiling and lands on your chest.
"oof"

4.  pick up some toys for Caroline to play with
>You ask pinkie some suggestions about getting all the necessities for raising Caroline.

>The two of you settle into a comfortable conversation about raising ponies and draconequus'.
>Your conversation is abruptly ended by the sound of fighting.
>You look over to see Caroline and Pound Cake fighting over the stuffed bear.
