Chapter 42 - Baby Cakes

"Swift darling, you need a break." 

"Sure, just allow me use my glass." It is always peculiar to hear my own voice, albeit just myself. Never solve the reason why'd had this eyes, for i ever had a light sensitive eyed ancestors. 

Reduced light exposure to my eyes, and the first step out of my lair in morning of days. 

"I'll take a walk outside, and never enter my lair without my permission. You will regret it yourself." She outrights seal the door to my lair, what a respectful mare. 

Outside world, bright like my own. For i had no clue of what to did, maybe other than visual-based activity what i need. 

That means, i made my way to Sugarcube corner. 

Sugarcube corner, vivid place like i once used to visit. "Swift." Is what i've called now, don't get what they referencing to but my field of f*cks is barren enough to share. 'Wait, why is this place went silent?' 

A pink friend appear from the counter, with two baby. "Swift! Why are you here?! It's closed, and i remember to close all the door! Did i remember to close the door? Yeah, i did close the door- HOW DID YOU ENTER?!" 

"Oh, sorry i didn't read all of them." Both babies feels like a member of cake family, likely belongst to them. 

Her care make them cry, Too low of my understanding of how my pink friend babysit. Thus, a former children caretaker- for my instinct shove me in to help my pink friend. 

Braiding my own mane sideways, ready to go. "So, what isth the problem?" 

"Uhh, nothing- i can handle this myself!" The face of hers, clearly stuggling but she already deny my help. 

"O-kay, maybe i'll wait on the counter-" 

A burst of magic nearly blinds me, even when i wear this sunglass of darkness. 

Outcomes a Yellow and Purple mare, their face tell me all. "Hey there, Swift!" 

"May i humbly guess, you two were here to help our pink friend." They had went closer to the counter, one even went straight to our pink friend. 

"E-xactly!" 

"Then, help her. She deny mine, so i respect it." The twitch on her face, tell all of it. 

Now our pink friend agree to get a help after this such suffering of hers, pleasure to comply. "First, rub their body with warm wet soft towel. And it is comforting, you could try it yourself." 

"Oh yeah~ You really had the knowledge, i'm buying it." 

"It's nothing, i had think your Rarity had to reject the offer to sit the twins. I kind of agree with her, but this is part of my life anyway." For the cause of keeping rub streak, they didn't make a single sound, no tense muscles but a thoroughly relaxed one. 

I start to think this clothes i wore isn't suitable for things like this, so- "Hey, all of you. Can you make them dry? Use your hoof instead of magic, i need to change outfit real quick." 

"Aye ma'am!" They did as i said, for i need to change my appearance. 

Black medium skirt dress, black n white maid while i had something for the others too. "I am back, girls." 

I hear no reply whatsoever, but i just keep care for the baby. 

They poke my back, and i just gave smile and told them "I hang some for you on the counter, you can use it." 

Well, this shape the baby to became hungry. For it be, my second call to feed them carrot porridge. The carrot was smoothen to water on the porridge, not a heavy porridge but a baby one. "For their health is my first concern, must be well fed with something you condemn healthy and not tasteful." 

"Split to two, Yelli with Pink take care of baby pegasi. And we will take care of The baby unicorn, i see her became a concerning magic problem." That's it, we are only going to focus on The unicorn baby. 

For we let her have a little freedom before her diapers no longer usable, wipe the *ss clean and put another diaper on her. I am suprised Purpl could keep up with this act, maybe an indirect experience he had elsewhere. For i had no problem doing something monotonous for a whole day, and my eyes are geting dry from that. 

None of my concern that is, The Baby unicorn is quite a prodigy herself at magic just like young me. She manage to do several shenanigans before i can cut her control off, for it was a total nightmare if young prodigy cannot control their own talent. 

"Purpl, can you check on the others? I'll watch this girl and keep her from demolition attempt, asme problem like young me." I laugh, Purpl agree to check on both mare. 

For i, hum a lullaby. "I know~ I know i've let you down. I've been a fool to myself, i thought that i could live for no one else~" 

This lullaby went for 7 whole minutes, Purpl went back before that with the report of Yelli and Pink. They all doing good and wreck less havoc than they usually did and right before the baby unicorn fully sleep from my boring song, we place her on top of a blanket. 

"-Hmmmmmm, hm hmmmm, h h hmmmmm m...." The baby unicorn totally asleep, we make her to a taco wrap blanket. For they are basically an infant, are yet to keep their frail shape from damage. 

We basically keep our guard on, carry the baby on our forelimbs. "Good job everyone, your burden is slightly lowered. Hope you learn lesson from this experience." 

It's a peaceful evening to night experience, you could call it the most peaceful day i had ever experienced. 

"Swift, where did you know that- lullaby?" 

"Mare in white gave me a partiture of songs for my preverance, and this is one of them." 

She squint her eyes, i pay less to her but the baby. "Komm Susser Tod is the name, am i wrong?" 

"Hmm, the title is quite inapropriate in our language. But the local name ineed said Komm Susser Tod, where did you know it?" I quite like this song to make myself doze off, for i rarely got any song or lullaby to put me off. 

She look very confused, once again i keep my motion steady and consistent with the equation. "Yea~ Weiss also told me this song, for sure-" 

Sounds like she hid something, but it is the least of my concern.
