The two casually teleport away as they kiss; there are, after all, important things to do.
And she was more than happy to follow him wherever he should lead her.
"Thank you, Pastel.. My faithful charge.." Slowly, carefully, he pulls her close, into a slow, gentle kiss.
“Of course, my angel.” She joins him in the kiss, pulling him closer.
"No.. I suppose I should no't... I wish to tell you something of importance.. For the most part, I will be leaving Equestria. With one exception.. I will return consistently for you. For you, for Amethyst, and for Purity. I shall return as frequently as possible, as you deserve.. Or, if you prefer, you could come with me. There will be little danger and conflict, and you could see the universe as turns... Our daughters will join us, and I swear that they will be safe..."
“I…I don’t know angel. I mean, I would be leaving behind everything we have here. All our friends, our lives. But…” She takes a deep breath and smiles, “for you I would go wherever you would be willing to take me. You, me, our daughters, and the little one to come.” She puts his hoof on her belly.
Out of nowhere, the Operator appears in front of her, faceless and all. For a moment, he stands there, before... his face appears, "Hello again, my faithful charge..."
She gasps a bit, taken off guard by his sudden appearance, “O-oh hey angel, you really shouldn’t sneak up on me like that.”
He sighs again. "Yeah... This has all turned into one giant confusing mess. I think you can still get that life, Pastel. You need to talk to the old and faceless Operator once you get the chance. Gilded is still inside of him, I know it!"
“I will. I was just really hoping all of this would just go away and we could be happy again. No matter what, I still love him.”
"Hmm? Oh, that might have been the Gilded with a soul. He came from the future and it seems that he took the place of your husband in that time, but I'm not too sure... Time travel is such a confusing subject." He sighs. "Anyway, your husband's personality has been split in two. One side is his old evil form as the Operator and the other is Gilded Oath. The Operator is currently in control, but not entirely."
“Again, I wish we could just live a normal life sometimes. I knew full well when I married him who he was, and I guess still it. I suppose I’d just hoped he’d be able to settle down finally and live out a life with me.”
"Well, do you remember how I said the old Gilded locked his memories away? That's not a problem anymore because we have two Gilded Oath's now. One is the Gilded Oath with a soul that has only come into existence recently and the other is other is currently the Operator."
“Ugh the stuff Angel does gets so confusing sometimes. Well he came to me not long ago and told me he was from the future, but he was here to stay.”
"Hello, Pastel. I have some important things to tell you about Gilded."
“Important? What is it Scribe?”
"Do I..? Well, I guess I could deliver on that.."
“Before you became young you left on a trip and we decided to have another foal.” She smiles and kisses him.
