"-and then Moonshine shoved the bundle at me, smacked me with her tail, and slammed the door in my face! Can you believe the nerve?"



"Mm." Big Bucks grunted, rolling his eyes. "You're lucky she didn't drag you for foal support payments. She'd have been within right, y'know."



"How can you possibly side with that tart?" Jackpot gaped at the other stallion, melodramatic as always. "Just look at what she's gone and done! Sure, I duped her out of 500 bits, but that vengeful demon tracked me down like a bloodhound, and now she's dumped this on us!" He lifted his top hat, which currently held a teeny, lightly babbling foal.



"Oh, I dunno." Big Bucks shrugged, then gave a playful half-smile. "You know I always wanted kids, Jackie."







"Don't be daft." Jackpot scoffed. "We can't take a foal on the road. Or do you plan on changing diapers in the middle of our act? Singing lullabies while we map out our next big con? No, she'll ruin everything good we've got going for us, Buck. She's got to go."







"But she's so cute." Buck played with one of the foal's teeny, pudgy hooves, then, in a whirl of his own hoof, produced a magic card in a puff of glitter. The foal burst into squealing giggles, reaching out toward Buck, who chuckled.







"Aww, you like that, little lady? Don't worry, ol' Pop-Pop has plenty more tricks up his sleeve-" As he braced himself for another trick, he was surprised when the filly's teeny horn sputtered with light, then produced a weak shower of sparkles. The feeble pulse of magic also forced out some dusty old dove feathers from the bottom of her father's hat. The filly struck what she probably believed to be a dramatic, elegant pose, her little cheeks puffing up with determination.







Both stallions blinked down at her, watching her magical glitter dissipate.







"....She's a natural." Buck remarked. He broke into a full-blown grin, moving to scoop up the baby. "We gotta keep her, Jackie! The girl's a natural-born magician!"







"We mustn't get attached, you fool!" Jackpot protested, but Buck had already swept up the giggling foal and was cooing over her in a shameless display.







"Awww, you're gonna be Pop Pop's little showstopper, aren't you? The greatest, cutest, most powerful magician Equestria's ever seen, aren't you, baby girl?" He blew a raspberry against her cheek, and she made a rather valiant attempt to eat his mustache.







"....She is terribly cute." Jackpot admitted. "But, Bucky, love, listen-"







"Oh, come on." Buck rolled his eyes. "You're telling me you haven't gotten the slightest bit attached to her? Your daughter, Jack?"









"Of course not." Jackpot said stiffly. "I am a professional, after all."









“Well, good.” Big Bucks said slyly. “Guess you won’t be minding much then, if I choose to name her after my mother-”







“What? You shan’t dare bestow that witch’s name upon my foal!” Jackpot snatched the filly from Buck in an instant, greedily hogging her in his arms while shooting Buck a dirty look. “This isn’t the sprog of your she-beast of a mother, you buffoon! This is my daughter! Destined for great, wondrous things! She needs a name that’s elegant, adorable, magical-uh. Why are you looking at me like that?”









Big Buck's smirk was disgustingly smug. ".... A professional, huh?"







With a start, Jackpot realized he'd been defensively nuzzling cheeks with his baby. He froze, turning red.







"It's okay." Buck chuckled, leaning to nuzzle against the flustered stallion. "We can take our time, really think it over. If you really think it'd be best to give her up, we can-"







"Trixie."







Buck cocked his head. "Eh?"







"I want to call her Trixie." Jack huffed.











".....Aww, Jackie-"









"Don't look at me like that, old fool. We're keeping her on a strictly probationary basis-" Jack grumbled, tugging his hoof from where Trixie had been happily chewing on it. Trixie blinked at the loss, before her tiny face scrunched up in a pout, and she began to blubber and fuss. Startled, Jack gave her back his hoof, and she returned to blissfully teething on it.







Right. We've known her for ten minutes and she's already got ya wrapped around one hoof, Buck thought, but chose not to voice it. Instead he only smiled, then leaned forward to kiss his partner's cheek. "She'll make us proud someday, Jack."





Jack let out a sigh of resignation....but the corner of his mouth quirked just a little as he regarded his child.









".....Of course she will. She's my girl, after all."

The show recently gave us these two magician ponies, Jackpot and Big Bucks:

I heard there's been a tweet or something confirming Jackpot is meant to be Trixie's dad. True or not, I'm definitely headcanoning him to be Trixie's bio dad.....and his show partner, Big Bucks, is her other dad. Trixie has two daddos, huzzah. Yes, I'm gonna rub my grubby gay hands all over ur precious pony contentI like headcanon about dear old Jack, so I'm gonna choose to incorporate it here, with some tweaks.is moderately successful Las Pegasus magician, though the pay can leave something to be desired. Jack enjoys padding his wallet by moonlighting as a con artist, swindling the innocent patrons of Las Pegasus out anything he can get his grubby hooves on-golden bits, jewelry, gems, poker chips, anything of value. His absolute favorite strategy is to seduce the city's fine, unsuspecting mares, plunder their pockets while they're busy swooning, then neatly disappear with one last wink and kiss.Despite his antics, Jackpot is happily married, to fellow stage magician/con artist hybrid,. Buck doesn't mind Jack's forays with the ladies, not when there's profit to be plundered. But, as Buck reminds Jack, the day Jack is so rude to set his romantic sights on anotherwell.....it'll be the day Buck really does saw Jack in half on the magic stage. Jack likes to remind his dear Bucky that he's the only thieving, conniving stallion that holds Jack's heart.Both of them are pretty surprised the day a rather furious mare (name of Moonshine) manages to track them down, shove a pudgy blue bundle into Jack's arms, and slam the door in his face for good measure. Looks like Jackie Boy is a daddy....though the thought does take some getting used to. He's shown looking rather perplexed by abrupt fatherhood here. Though initially annoyed at Jack's slip-up, Buck was quicker to warm up to the fillyand quickly took the title of her "Pop-Pop", cooing over the foal and spoiling her rotten. Jack took longer to come around, but despite his brave, noble fight, he too eventually fell hopelessly in love with his widdle Trixie-Pixie, and considers her the star of his show. The Tiny and Kinda Cranky!Trixie is dearly adored by her doting daddos~for the twenty or so of you that'll feel the need to point out the existence of a golden mare believed to be Trixie's mom from the IDW comics, welp, I personally headcanon that that's Jack's sister, Trixie's sweet aunt that often minded lil Trix while her dads tended to their business. Trixie's real mother is a rather not-nice mare that's best not mentioned in polite company (lest Jack call her a tart)i plagiarized the shit out of Frog's amazing headcanon.
