Pony on the left is Shinzo! She's a student intern at the hospital Amber works at. I mentioned her once before and I'm kinda feeling out where she belongs on the timeline. She's Hot Head and Lucky's age. She's a bit of an old OC somewhat based on another really old OC of mine (can you guess which one?). If you couldn't guess from her name, she's from Neighpon/is Japonies
Doctor: Amber, I'm really sorry……
Amber: ……….
Doctor: I can prescribe more Clomiphene for
Amber: stands up and heads for the door Forget it steps out and slams the door
Shinzo: spots Amber storming towards the exit of the hospital Doctor Amber! runs after her
Amber: continues to walk
Shinzo: H-hey was your appointment today? How'd it get a good look at Amber's expression and dulled mane I'm….. I'm so sorry Doctor….. Do you need anything or?
Amber: It's fine, Shinzo. Thank you for your concern tries to walk past her
Shinzo: steps in front of Amber Where are you going?
Amber: Home.
Shinzo: Is your husband home?
Amber: looks at Shinzo with an irritated expression What? No. He's at work. Why do you care?
Shinzo: Doctor I… I can't let you go home like this.
Amber: Why not?
Shinzo: Because! I know how you get after receiving your… results…. And I really don't think you should be alone.
Amber: snorts I'll be fine, Shinzo. I need to be alone now. tries to get around Shinzo once more
Shinzo: stomps in front of Amber No! Amber, you're so unstable in this state! I know what happened last time. Please stay here. We can just stay in the break room and I-I dunno… talk about it?
Amber: Do you really think I want to talk about this?
Shinzo: Well at least stay here until you calm down. Please?
Amber: …………………….. nods
Shinzo: Arigatou ne slightly bows and leads Amber to the break room
Amber: ………
Shinzo: …………. I-I know you probably don't want to talk about it but um…… er, actually, I'm not sure if this really counts as "it" but
Amber: Just ask
Shinzo: O-oh, um, have you ever considered adopting? Sorry if that was out of line
Amber: It's crossed my mind.
Shinzo: Well…. i-if………. this….. doesn't work out, I think you could make a really lucky foal very happy. Adopting is a really great option and
Amber: looks down at the ground I know, Shinzo. I've done it twice before. But………..
Shinzo: ………….
Amber: ……I was really hoping I could have my own foal. I really want that intimate experience of carrying a foal. Just feeling that little life grow inside me and then being rushed to the hospital with my husband by my side smiles a bit and then looking into my babys eyes for the first time and nursing and….. all of that. I wanted to provide.
Shinzo: …………..
Amber: Because then……… then maybe Id feel like Im worth something. I always felt that having children and being a mother would be my purpose but…. I guess I was wrong. For now, I just feel worthless……… I am worthless
Shinzo: Oh Amber, you're not worthless! You're not worthless at all!
Amber: Thank you but we can't help but feel the way we feel, Shinzo. That's just how it is.
Shinzo: ………………. lowers her head and her ear twitches stops as she looks back just in time to see a filly jump behind a wall
Amber: stops and looks at Shinzo What is it?
Shinzo: I think somepony's following us.
Amber: looks back I don't see anypony.
Shinzo: Hm, I guess I'm just seeing things……. continues walking with Amber So, do you plan on coming back to work any time soon?
Amber: shrugs Honestly having to see other pregnant mares and their foals everyday has been a little depressing for me as of late. I know, it sounds horrible but…. it's just kind of a harsh reminder.
Shinzo: I understand. Well, I hope you come back. You're the best mentor I've ever had.
Amber: Thank you, Shinzo. stops abruptly and sees a small pegasus filly by her leg
Shinzo: Oh, looks like we were being followed. Hi there little one. Are you lost?
Angel: shakes head keeping here eyes fixated on Amber
Shinzo: Where are your parents?
Angel: I don't have any.
Amber: You're an orphan?
Angel: nods
Shinzo: Oh, w-well what brings you
Angel: You smell familiar…..
Amber: Huh?
Angel: crawls under Amber and rubs her cheek on Amber's front leg
Amber: Oh…. um…
Shinzo: whispers to Amber Do you know her?
Amber: shakes head and looks down at the filly
Angel: So safe.
Amber: What was that?
Angel: You feel safe.
Amber: Um, thank you?
Nurse: looks down the hall Ah there you are! runs over to Amber, Shinzo and Angel Oh Doctor Amber! Good afternoon. Sorry about this little filly. She really doesn't want her shots.
Amber: Ah, I see. pushes Angel out from underneath hear Go on little one. You need to get your shots.
Angel: hugs Amber's leg I don't wanna
Amber: crouches over at eye level with the filly Hey it's okay. Shots only hurt a little, tiny bit. And they keep you nice and healthy. They help you to not get sick.
Angel: Really?
Amber: Mmhm. Now go with the nice nurse. She'll take care of you.
Angel: ……………………….O-okay…. lets go of Amber and cautiously follows the nurse
Nurse: Thank you doctor leads Angel back to their room Come now, Angel Feather. It'll be quick. I promise.
Amber: Angel Feather?
Shinzo: Hm?
Amber: Did she just say Angel Feather?
Shinzo: Um, yes. I think so. Why?
Angel: yells to Amber from down the hall Momma please come with me! I'm scared!
Amber: stares at Angel and gets a glimpse of the golden feather on her left wing
Shinzo: Momma?
Amber: She's…. she's the foal I rescued….. all those years ago. starts to return to her normal color and hair begins to curl S-she must have imprinted on me when I nursed her……… I can't believe she remembered. It was only once.
Shinzo: W-wait Doctor, what are you talking about? Who is she?
Amber: ……….. she's going to be one of those lucky foals you were talking about trots after Angel and the nurse
