private Exiled and Alone (1x1 with Roxy Sparx)

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Nightmare smiles and nods "Then I shall have my other half to set it up for the both of you then" she says with a smile and nuzzles the young filly, "and you know something, your mummy loves you very much and is very proud of you"

Crystal smiles and nods "Indeed, and that little colt is a good one, she's chosen well"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

Thanks miss Nightmare." Dawn nodded, "I know and I love Mommy too she took me in and took care of me."

Dawn blushed, "Thank you miss Crystal. I just found him to be nice and always liked playing with him."

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Nightmare smiles and nuzzles her "You know, in essence Queen Crystal here is like an older sister to you" she says as Crystal nods and kisses the filly's nose "You will find that most of the nymphs from our hive are like that, we all are"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

The filly shrugged not really caring about the labels, just knowing that she liked Crystal and Indicus finding them nice and they made her mom happy. Some of the nymphs were playing and the one that Dawn had a crush on was waving her over to join them Dawn did not hesitate to join them. Indicus just chuckled, "And she is off once more."

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Crystal giggles "the innocence of youth" she says and hugs her two companions close to her "So Arachnia darling, where are you living? Because if it's something small and cramped, I simply won't have it, I'll have the Princesses getting you and your filly a home in the Palace"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

Arachnia smiled, "I have a decent sized home for most ponies. Though thanks to not being like most ponies it can get cramped at times so thank you for the offer."

Indicus smiled and hugged Crystal and Arachnia close. "I am getting my little cabin expanded to hopefully triple its size. Seeing as I own most of the land in Ponyville near the Everfree besides Fluttershy's land and Sweet Apple Acre's I have almost indefinite expanding room."

Arachnia smiled once more looking at Crystal, "Wow I did not know our coltfriend here owned land much less in Ponyville. It does sound like a nice place to raise foals."

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

"He's earned it, that and he's also you know, Luna and Nightmare Moon's adopted son" Crystal says with a chuckle and looks to Nightmare moon who was now watching the little ones, while munching on a bit of food that Rarity had bought for her.

Nightmare nods "I will certainly bring up the housing issue with our dear sister Arachnia, fret not"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

Indicus  chuckled, "Doing assassin's work for the crown and some rich nobles for their games will make one very wealthy. Though ignoring my kill count. I have enough money to buy portions of Ponyville and enough time to own the place in another fifty years."

Arachnia raised her brow at Indicus's casual mention of what she figured was a darker part of his past. Though she elected to speak about it later.

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Crystal smiles and nuzzles him lovingly "Just you wait Arachnia dear, you'll soon find out that living with our dear Indicus, means that you will never be wanting for love ever again" she says and kisses her softly "and you'll always have your little Crystal as well"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

Arachnia smiled and softly kissed Crystal, "I believe you, I can feel the love pour out from him. I might have to store some excess for later." Arachnia kissed Crystal again.

Indicus watched ending up kissing both women. "I think I already told you both how good you look." 

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Crystal blushes and giggles "He's such a wonderful stallion" she says then kisses him back "And yes you have darling, but don't stop now" she says as she flicks her tail softly under his nose and giggles once more as she watches Dawn play with her friends, "I'm just so proud of all of you, finding a way to survive and live and even thriving without me"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

"It was with the help of some of the crystal pony refugees that we were able to have enough love to get away and to Equestria and others that knew our secret to get here after the Nightmare Moon incident." Arachnia replied

Indicus smiled as he felt Crystals tail under his nose his mind going in the gutter for a moment as male's minds tend to on occasion especially around someone they romantically love. "Trust me I'll make sure to remind you both." 

Arachnia smiled putting a hand under his chin, "I'm sure you will."

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Crystal smiles and nods as she nuzzles him and smiles over at Arachnia "I'm still very proud of all of you, it helps me to feel that I was a good Queen and Hive Mother, even though I do wish I could have done a lot more for everyone"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

Arachnia put a hand on Crystal's back, "You did all you could if you tried to fight Sombra you would have died and we would not be here now, and Indicus here would not have done a lot of the things that lead him to meet his mother, take the demon out of his head." Arachnia looked at Indicus as he gave her a puzzled look that caused Arachnia to laugh. "I have been watching you for awhile Indicus, since you arrived in Equestria in fact. The presence of a half demon and one born form a greater fear demon is rare for many reasons and I tend to like to keep an eye on what goes on around here."

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Crystal smiles and nuzzles Arachnia with a happy churr as her wings buzzed happily "T-thank you Arachnia, you always knew how to help me feel better about myself" she says, kissing her on the cheek softly, then looks to Nightmare Moon who had turned back to Luna, "Luna, dear?"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

 

Luna smiled and walked up to the trio, "It has been nice speaking to the three of you and Nightmare wants me to tell you that she hopes only the best for all of you." Luna looks at a nearby clock and shakes her head. "Well it seems Night Court will be starting up shortly so I must be off. Enjoy yourself son. Same with you Arachnia and Crystal."

Luna was about to leave but seemed to remember something, "Before I forget, you will find the bed in your room has been altered to let the three of you sleep comfortably together, and by the looks of it the party is winding down and you three will have a nice chance to use it sooner rather than later." With that Luna left to do her duties.

Indicus looked at his now two marefriends knowing he was head over heels for one while starting to fall for the other. He looked back to see a happy Bountiful Dawn jump onto Arachnia's spider half and nuzzle her mother. Arachnia smiled, "You have fun Dawn?" 

Dawn nodded vigorously, "I did. The colt I like, Clever Disguise said he wanted to play with me again even asked if we could go to the park to look at the sky some night. When I told him about Miss Nightmares Idea he liked it." 

Arachnia smile widened and Indicus scuffed the filly's mane. "That's nice I hope you both have fun then."

"I will Indicus." The filly jumped on Indicus' back surprising him but he manage to steady her.

Arachnia giggled, "Seems she likes you quite a bit it usually takes her a bit to drop the formality. 

Indicus just nuzzled Crystal and Arachnia. "Well mom was right it is getting to be the end of the party lets head to our room and try out the bed. Sound good Crystal?"

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Crystal smiles "It's like I said dear, our darling Indicus has a way with the little ones, and yes you are right it does look like the party is winding down. It was spectactular to see all of you and to see how well you all are doing ,but I do have a big day tomorrow, as I had promised to foalsit Night Vision's little one, Sugar Drop" she says, standing up and stretching her legs, "shall we?"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

 

"We shall." Indicus lead the group to the castle and from there, their room. When they arrived Dawn got of Indicus's back and ran over to a bed just her size and jumped in. Indicus laid on the middle of the bed while Arachnia laid on his right side and snuggled into him her spider half splayed out and wrapped her arms around Indicus.

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Crystal smiles but then she notices a little shape sleeping on the end of the bed and smiles, using she levitates a little bat filly into her arms and cuddles her as she stirs a little "shh little Sugardrop, go back to sleep, you're safe, auntie Crystal and uncle Indicus are here and we've got a friend for you" she says, "Sleep and dream sweet dreams of critters and flowers"

[Shadow Dancer 111]

 

Indicus looked at the form of Sugardrop curled against Crystals stomach and smiled. Indicus shifted a little to get comfortable and with a spell teleported his shirt to the laundry bin preferring to go without a shirt when he slept. This action caused Arachnia to grin and slightly rub her hands on Indicus's abdomen. "Night everybody."  

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Crystal smiles as she also read a note from Night Vision "Dear Crystal, I am so sorry to do this to you, but Lieutenant Spearhead and I wanted some personal time, and Sugardrop has been asking to see you and Indicus once more, Princess Luna said it should be fine to let Sugar sleep on your bed, Please come find us if you have any trouble though, love Night Vision" Crystal reads and smiles as she cradles the sleeping filly in her arms before getting up and placing her next to Dawn, she smiles as the batpony filly immediately snuggled up to Dawn, "Sleep well my angels" she whispers and kisses their noses before going back to sleep with Indicus and Arachnia.

[Shadow Dancer 111]

 

Indicus felt the shift and took a peak. Once Crystal started to go back to sleep again he closed his eyes and enjoyed the proximity to her. From the gentle sound of her breathing to the warmth of her touch.

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

She smiles as she nuzzles him lovingly "Spearhead and Night Vision wanted u to look after Sugardrop as they had a bit more time together alone, I see nothing wrong with it, and she's already quite taken with little Bountiful" she says with a giggle.

[Shadow Dancer 111]

 

"That would be no problem, after the raid I have no work that I need to do..." Indicus then remembered the news he received about Chrysalis. "Crystal do you want me to tell you what my contacts found out about your sister?"

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Crystal smiles and nuzzles him lovingly "Is it good news? Because if it's bad new, then it can wait until the morning" she says and smiles over at the sleeping form of Arachnia "I'm glad to share you with our spiderling, she's been so lonely" she says softly and sighs softly.
