Pippin stared blankly at the smaller Yak in front of him, blinking. He stepped back a few steps in surprise.
Did he follow him here?
The Yak nearly froze when he saw Pippin at the door, shaking his head and wiping his eyes to make sure he was seeing things right.
"Oh... Yak not know that this is where you live!" Red Velvet spoke nervously.
"Yak knew that one of my mother's friend used to live here! That's why Yak came here, I didn't mean to startle you, Mr. Pippin."
"Please..." Pippin Clear's his throat. "You can just say Pippin or Pip; No need for formalities! Come right on in!"
He walks to the side of the door and gestures a hoof towards the chair he fell in earlier. Velvet daintily walks over to it and sits down, watching Pippin as he closes the door, flicks the light on, and goes to find a chair he can fit in.
He continues their conversation, yelling from the room he's looking for a chair in.
"So, you think that your mother's friend lived here on the apple farm? Well, I sure don't know who'd that be if I'm gonna be right honest."
He enters the room, pushing a chair with his head and sets it catercorner from Velvet's. He sits in it, giving Velvet a tender but somber gaze.
"My Momma is the only one in my family to have ever even met a Yak, and I think I would've known if she would've had a Yak friend. Could you maybe give me a name or maybe the colors you remember of who you think your mom knew, or maybe even the name of your mom, Sugarcube?"
Celestia alive, Pippin HATES it when he says Sugarcube. He always feels embarrassed afterwards.
Velvet looked toward the ground. He fiddled with his hooves, a clinking sound coming from them as he clopped them together.
"You See... Yak have a secret. Can you keep secret, Pippin?"
Pippin tilted his head in confusion.
"Well, uh, sure Prince Re-"
"Red Velvet or just Velvet will do, Pippin. Like you said before; No need for formalities... You are a pony, right? You're awfully big for one."
Velvet smiled for a moment and chuckled, Pippin chuckling with him.
He then had a dejected look on his face, staring at the ground again.
"My mother isn't a yak. My mother is a pony like you."
He sighs.
"This is no secret to the other Yaks, but my dad wants it to be secret to the ponies. Well, at least until I find my mom."
Pippin's eyes go wide, he gasping, partially in surprise of the sudden articulation from him, but mainly out of realization.
"I... Are you...?"
He looked at the Yak up and down. He had a heart shaped mark on his muzzle. There were balloons and streamer decorations on the decorative bands and shoes he was wearing. His hair, though way more dark, was a pink-ish color. Even his braided beard looked like hearts....
it clicked.
"Well I'LL be! You must be Pinkie's baby."
Velvet shot up, walking over to Pippin and bouncing excitedly.
"Oh, Yak should go buy lotto ticket because he is so lucky! Do you know Pinkie and where she is?"
"I'm afraid your luck's ran out, friend." Pippin said as his ears flopped over, a stern look on his face.
"I can tell you where your mom is, or at least my Ma can cuz I don't know, but I'm afraid she won't be anything like you probably remember her."
Velvet stopped bouncing and looked at Pippin with a worried expression, extending one of his hooves out to touch him on the leg.
"... Is Yak's mother okay?"
"She's... Alive. She's okay in that sense, but she's not like she used to be."
Pippin reaches one of his arms over and pulls Velvet close to him, hugging him.
"She was throwing a birthday party for Sugar Rush... Oh..."
He pulled back for a moment, looking at Velvet in the eyes.
"You have some siblings, by the way. Sugar Rush is one, and the other is Nimbostratus. Both of them are real nice."
Velvet was in pure awe. He had no idea that his mom not only moved on from Rutherford, but had other kids as well.
"...Anyways, she was throwing a party, and a decoration or somethin' she made wasn't built right and toppled over... It hit a few buildings on the way down, and..."
"...And?" Velvet pleaded with him to continue.
"There were poor unfortunate souls trapped under it. While they were able to rescue some, ...most of them didn't make it. Bless them all."
He saw that Velvet started to shake, his lip quivering.
"It got to her, ya know? She was devastated. She took it so hard she wasn't herself and she had to do therapy for years."
He walked toward Velvet again and gave him another hug.
"She's doing a LOT better though, don't worry! She just doesn't throw parties anymore, and she is a lot more... tired? Exhausted? Crabby? Not really crabby... It's hard to explain."
Silence filled the room as Pippin kept an arm over Velvet. Velvet sniffled a few times like he was going to cry but didn't.
"She'd love to see you, Velvet. She never stopped talking about you and missed you every day."
He blushed, looking at Velvet.
"I just never knew your name. Plus, she said she had a daughter, not a son, and I never knew you were a Yak of course either..."
More silence. Pippin eventually stopped hugging him and just watched him, willing to give a support if he needed to.
After a painfully long amount of time, Velvet finally responds.
"I guess, being Trans would be Yaks second secret out." He chuckled, his voice strained and cracking with pain. He sounded like he could start sobbing at any time.
"A.. Are you okay, Velvet? Ah... I know I just met you, but I'm here for you if you need any help or anything."
Pippin blushed and looked away, sitting his hind quarters on the ground.
Velvet walked towards him and rested his head against his chest, lifting a hoof and trying to give him a hug. Pippin wrapped his arms around him, his face going bright red as Velvet started to tear up.
"You ponies are way too nice, especially since we're at war." He smiled weakly.
"Yak appreciates it deeply, friend."
Pippin smiled.
"That's just how I do things, Velvet. Or rather I should say, that's how Apples do things." Pippin's voice was wavy and fluttery.
Velvet sat there for a moment, leaning onto him and thinking as he heard Pippin's heart beat.
Which... wow... Was really fast. Did his heart need to pump faster because of his size?
He broke the hug and stepped away from him.
"Do you mind if we go try and find your mom so we could find Pinkie?" Velvet asked.
"Sure thing, I don't mind at all, Sugarcube."

Sorry for all the Pippin and Velvet spam, tbh I don't really have much on the Valorverse besides what I've already written about and it's hard to draw it, and while I know what's going on in the Mediverse it's also HARD to draw, so doing these has been fun as I can explore their relationship.
Now to figure out where to go from there, lol.
