I bit my lip as I finished my thirty-second lap around the waiting room. Groaning, I steered my head back to the spot on the wall that had garnered most of my attention for most of my time here. The clock read nine forty-two.
Fifty-five minutes.
Almost an hour.
It had been almost an hour since they'd taken her into that room—the one with screams of blood-curdling agony ripping through the walls. They wouldn't let me in with her. "Too many unknowns," they'd said. "We've never dealt with this kind of circumstance. We need all the space we can get."
After that, they locked me out here.
Alone.
To wait...
Celestia had said that it would be dangerous—maybe too dangerous. Nopony had ever done it before, but Twilight wanted to, and by Luna, she set her mind to it and Celestia helped her out. Now, I could hear her screams echo down the halls, each one sent shivers down my spine.
Hang in there, Twi. It's gonna be okay...
Fifty-seven minutes...
The screaming stopped. A doctor in a white coat opened the door. "Miss Dash?" he said, peering around the room.
"Over here," I answered.
The doctor motioned me closer. "Now," he said softly, "It's not exactly pretty in there... Try not to cause any undue stress."
I nodded and pushed my way passed him. On the other side of the door lay Twilight, white bed-sheets covering her figure. I stepped inside and walked over to the side of her bed.
"Hey, Twi," I whispered, "How ya doin'?"
Her tired eyes drifted up to meet my own. The amethyst orbs said it all: pain. Lots of it.
And peace... A quiet kind of tranquility drifted around in there too.
In her embrace, a little bundle wailed. Twilight pushed a scrap of blanket off the face of a deep indigo pegasus. The foal cried and cried and cried.
And so did I—
At minute sixty...
*Girly squee* Oh my god it's a baby in my favorite pairing and I love it so much and I want to hug it and kiss it and call it Steve! *Ahem* Uhhh... I'm manly, I swear! Oh who am I kidding...

Like what? What would you like to see?
what else would be amusing to see? Twilight with Spitfire with Dash looking on in envy of one or both? or just TwiFire...

How about Pinkie and Blueblood?
Pinkie and Rarity even?
Gah...
Lesbians. Lesbians everywhere...
You ARE aware that there is such a thing as a MALE pony, yes? A "stallion," as they say in the vernacular? That simply because most of one's friends are of the same sex it does not automatically mean they are physically attracted to them? Could YOU ever become physically attracted to one of your friends?
Sorry, this came out snarky and mean. I just get tired of seeing an endless stream of lesbian pony stories. Be original, be straight!
Still, this is well written, so no downvote. Just...
dude, enough filly fooling!

Maybe so... Actually, probably so.
Good thing I don't care. All I know is myself. I have friends that I would gauge as being closer to me than the mane six are to each other, and I could never be physically attracted to them, simy because of how my brain is wired. Just like how a gay man just can't be aroused by a woman, neither can I by a man. To assume that the girls must be that way is silly to me. I know we has zero evidence of any kind o preference, but since nearly ALL popular ship fics are lesbian, I can say such things.
If you get offended, sorry.
My favorite shipping is still
2190205 do more of the Saving private twilight, that had potential
2190205
APPLEDASH!
*cough*
Daaaaaamnnn Totally not what I expected. Very cute.
??? How did Twilight have a foal! She was with RD riht?
2193270 It's probably because all the male characters are either underdeveloped, boring, unreachable or taken.
2915017 Magical insemination.
There's probably a Unicorn professional who specializes in same sex cases like these and uses magic to complete the process

I know you aren't trying to be mean, and neither am I, but you do realize that people have the right to ship what they want? People base it off of feelings, not "originality", this person finds Twilight and Rainbow Dash to be a good pair for each other. Besides, there's not that many stallions in the show anyways. At least, not that many that would be a good pair for the mane 6, more or less Twilight Sparkle. Since the show was originally meant for little girls, there's going to be way more mares than there will be stallions, sadly.
