- "I miss you."
- >"I-I miss you too, Anon. You make me feel warm and fuzzy inside a-and... I'm happy to know I make you feel the same way."
- >Fluttershy looks away from you, as her hair moves over her face.
- >Her eyes connect with the ground, but her face is lit up in a rosy red blush as she smiles.
- >Her ears flatten a little as she slowly brings her gaze back up to you.
- >"U-uhm, Anon? Can I ask you a question?"
- >"W-well. Uhm. It's memorial day in Equestria. I was going to go home to Cloudsdale in order to visit my Dad. U-uhm. W-would you mind going with me? T-that is, uhm, if you don't mind."
- >She blushes and looks away.
- >"It's hard to go alone sometimes, but I want to pay my respects."
- "No, not at all. I don't mind."
- >"Oh, okay. I under-"
- >Her face lights up and her cyan pools rise to meet yours.
- >"Wait, really? You mean it? Oh, thank you, Anon! Let me just grab my luggage and I can meet you at the station. They can take us to a hot air balloon that will take us to Cloudsdale. Why don't you go home and pack, and then we met there? Maybe in an hour?"
- >She beams at you as she stands on the porch of your home, you lean against your doorframe casually with a wide smile.
- "Sure thing. See you there," you reply.
- >The yellow pegasus smiles, turns and flutters away.
- >"See you there!"
- >You close the front door and turn into your home.
- >With a sigh, you wonder how much you should pack.
- >She never exactly said how long you would be staying.
- >On the other hand, how much weight could a hot air balloon take?
- >It would probably be a good to pack light.
- >Heading up the stairs to your bedroom ,you shed your t-shirt and toss it to your dirty clothes hamper while taking off your shoes and socks.
- >If your last trip to Cloudsdale was any indication, you will need to pack warmly.
- >But first, a shower.
- >You should look your best for this.
- >It's only respectful.
- >Tearing off the rest of your clothes, you lay on your bed, naked, staring at the ceiling.
- >Well, Fluttershy likes you and you like her too.
- >Now, the two of you are doing this together.
- >Is this a test?
- >Is this a date?
- >Who knows?
- >Either way, however you handle this... might decide the fate of what could happen.
- >Shaking your head, you rise to your feet.
- >You can't get your hopes up.
- >Moving to the bathroom, you turn on the water and stare at yourself in the mirror.
- >You shaved this morning, but the five-o-clock shadow is strong.
- >It's probably fine.
- >Grabbing some mouthwash, you rinse out your mouth as you hop into the shower and begin to lather shampoo into your hair.
- >It was kinda weird hearing Fluttershy talk about her parents completely out of the blue.
- >Why could that be?
- >Are you stepping into bad territory?
- >Maybe... maybe you can ask Twilight.
- >You will need to stop at her place to get enchanted with the cloud walking spell anyway.
- >Rubbing soap on your body, you clean your chest and work down until you meet your closest friend.
- >Hhhmmm....
- >Aw hell with it.
- >Fifteen minutes later, the water hitting your back is cold, but you lean against the shower wall with a sigh.
- >That's much better.
- >The white, soapy suds mixes with sweat and other collected bodily fluids and flows down the drain.
- >Rising to your feet, you step outside of the shower and grab a towel.
- >Hey, we have time.
- >Let's cook something a little nice.
- >Getting out a few eggs and the milk, you toss a pan on the stove and get ready to cook yourself a meal.
- >You check the clock, and you got 45 minutes left.
- >That should be plenty of time, barring some sort of crazy accident.
- >Grabbing a bowl, a plate, you pull the box of cereal and look over it carefully.
- >It was a cinnamon-sugar flavored wheat cereal that was one of the best that Equestria had to offer.
- >As much as you ate it, there was one thing that you just couldn't figure out.
- >Why did the little ones like it so much?
- >It just wasn't anything special.
- >Oh well.
- >Pouring it into a bowl with a dash of milk, you can heat the pan sizzle, signaling it's ready for some eggs.
- >Cracking the eggs into the pan, the clear-white egg proteins turn white to the heat's touch.
- >OOH!
- >You know what would make this?
- >Toast.
- >Running to your cupboard, you check for some bread, but it looks like you are fresh out.
- >Damn.
- >Oh well.
- >Shoving a spoon into your cereal, you take a bite before returning to the rest of your meal.
- >You carefully season the eggs before flipping them.
- >Taking a few more bites of food, you begin to wonder what clothes you should pack.
- >Would a suit be too much?
- >Probably.
- >But, a hoodie doesn't seem right.
- >Maybe you could just take a nice jacket and wear some jeans.
- >Casual, but not -too- casual.
- >Then, maybe an extra change of clothes, just in case.
- >Plating the eggs, you attack them with a fork and knife, feeling a little guilty for using this much time for a meal.
- >Once you finish the cereal, you slurp the milk and place the dishes in the sink.
- >Those can be dealt with later.
- >Checking the clock, you have a half hour to get to Twilights, then the station as well as pack.
- >You head upstairs to your room and ditch your towel.
- >Actually.
- >You know what?
- >Fuck it.
- >Ponies don't wear clothes.
- >You don't have to either.
- >The next stop, is to go to Twilight's.
- >You step outside your home and immediately feel a breeze flow through your legs.
- >Awww yisss.
- >That's the stuff.
- >You stride forward with pride and confidence. as you make your way into town.
- >A few ponies immediately stop what they're doing and simply stare as you walk by.
- >You hum a happy tune as you stride forward.
- >That's right.
- >Take it allll in.
- >Welcome to the museum of masculinity.
- >Look, but don't touch.
- >You walk past Applejack's apple stall.
- >The apple family happily sells apples.
- "Heya gang!"
- >Applejack looks up with a smile, but gasps loudly.
- >Applebloom also looks up at you, but Applejack swiftly covers her eyes with her hooves.
- >Granny smith whistles out a cat-call and Big Macintosh stares, drool slowly dribbling out of the left side of his mouth.
- >A smile curls at the edges of your lips.
- >Dat's right.
- >You approach Twilight's Castle and knock loudly on the doors, before letting yourself in.
- >"I'm coming!" Twilight's familiar voice echoes throughout the castle halls.
- "It's me!" you call back.
- >"Oh!" she replies, entering the entrance hall, hovering a book in front of her face. "Hey Anon, I've been just entranced in this book today. What can I do for you?"
- >She closes the book and looks at you with a smile.
- >The smile quickly fades when she looks at you.
- >Her eyes move down.
- >A blush covers her face and she covers her mouth with her book.
- >"U-uhm. W-what did you need? W-why aren't you wearing clothes?" she asks.
- "Well, Fluttershy asked me on a trip with her to Cloudsdale. I was hoping you could give me that enchantment that let's me walk on clouds."
- >She stares at you.
- >You stare at her.
- "What?"
- >"Why are you naked?" she asks. "Fluttershy asked you on a date, and you are here. Naked. that doesn't..."
- >Her mind breaks, looking away from you and trying to keep her eyes above your waist.
- >"Why?"
- "Well, I dunno. I figured I'd dress up for the occasion."
- >She stares at you.
- "You know, I'd wear my suit."
- >She stares at you.
- "My birthday suit."
- >"Anon, if you take my friend out on a date without wearing clothes, I will strangle you."
- >With a flash of purple from Twilight's horn, you feel the breeze suddenly disappear.
- >You look down to find yourself newly fitting clothes.
- >You wear a blue, well fitting button down starch shirt with a white undershirt and a pair of black slacks with black dress shoes.
- "How did you-"
- >"Never mind that," she interrupts. "Why did Fluttershy ask you to Cloudsdale?"
- "Well, she wanted me to help pay respects to her Dad... since it's memorial day."
- >Twilight's eyes widen and she puts a hoof to her mouth, looking away from her.
- "Is... that bad?"
- >"No! No. Not at all. Uhm. Yes, you'll need the enchantment."
- >With another bright flash of purple, your feet feel as if they were standing on pillows.
- "Oh. Cool."
- >"That should last 24 hours," she says.
- "Thanks, Twilight," you say with a smile. "And thanks for the clothes too. I guess I just thought... since most of you wear clothe-"
- >"Just... stop," Twilight says, placing a hoof to her forehead. "I need to... lie down."
- "Alright then, I'll see you later. Take it easy, Twi."
- >"See ya, Anon."
- >She mutters some words under her breath as you walk outside of her castle.
- >There's a small gathering of mares off in the distance, that all groan in disappointment as you close the door behind you.
- >You look over to them and they slowly scatter.
- >What the hell was their deal?
- >Oh well, it doesn't matter.
- >The next thing to do was to go to the train station.
- >Your mind reeled with what you should say or do.
- >Do we ask her about her family?
- >Do we try to keep things light hearted?
- >You look down at your clothes.
- >Goddamn, you look nice.
- >This looks much nicer than what Rarity has sewn for you in the past.
- >Twilight and her Princess powers probably let her do anything.
- >Shaking your head, you try to keep your mind focused.
- >You are going to ride on the train with Fluttershy.
- >Should you try to make a move on her?
- >Wait, wouldn't that be a little dark?
- >You look to the sky as you close the distance to the train station.
- ~~~
- >Fluttershy cries over a grave as you walk up behind her.
- "Hey yo guuurl. Lemme have yo numba."
- ~~~
- >You groan and look to the ground.
- >Trying to make this more than it is, probably isn't the best idea.
- >As you approach the train station, you look back up, to spot the yellow pegasus standing in the distance.
- >You quicken your pace and throw her a wave.
- >She raises a hoof and waves as you close the gap between you two.
- >"Thanks for coming, Anon," she asks with a smile. "Are you ready?"
- "I'm all ready," you say.
- >"You look very handsome," she says with a smile.
- --
- Then they go to cloudsdale, it's a lot of build up. Her parents are dead. Bleh. New respect for fluttershy, everyone's happy.
