(ya i know the title sucks, its more a less just a placeholder till i can come up with something better.) >Be Floorbored >Its been about a week since you moved in and only now have you finally started to settle back in. >The couple piles of clothes you have strewn about have finally found their optimal position. >Your sheets have your scent thoroughly clinging to them once again and slightly strewn about from you having just awoken. >It has also been a good 5 to 10 minutes of you staring at the door to your room. >You are mentally preparing yourself for your voyage into foreign land, and to match wits with the two legged one. >This is all thanks to that social worker pony's surprise drop in. >That entire day is kind of a blur, with lots of raised voices, and you being dragged all over the place. >The only bits you do remember is the fact you were told you would have to move. >You kinda shut down as she was freaking out of the state of your apartment, something about a fire hazard? >It doesn't matter in the long run, she essentially turned your life upside down with a swift boot out of your comfortable room. >As your stuff was being moved into your new apartment you were told you wouldnt be living alone anymore. >She had the gall to sound happy about this, she hadn't even informed you of this change. >Apparently she had. >Several times over the course of the day. >You mentally chided yourself over shutting down and just going with the flow but you know it would likely happen again. >You were also here now and there was no turning back as the moving ponies had finally left. >The social worker pony decided to 'kindly' re-inform of the reason that your going to be living with a normie. >You have been put into a Cultural Assimilation program, to see how well ponies and humans can live together. >The other being that you were going to be living with was out getting some shopping done supposedly and to give you a bit of time to settle in. >The social worker pony had given you her number should anything crop up and to call her if you needed anything. >You severely doubted it, unless she could somehow let you move back into your old place. >It all went rather quickly after that, setting up your room, wandering around the currently empty apartment, and getting used to where everything is. >Still in the throes of stressing out over how your life had been upended you hear the sound of the door thump close with a loud click after. >You manage to pull your head out from underneath your mess of covers that you had dubbed fort-everythings-fine. >The sounds of various things being moved about, cupboards opening and closing and another softer thump which you can only assume is the fridge being closed. >Things quiet down a little bit after and you return to your own world for a while > fantasizing about your dreams and what it would be like to actually be like those stacy's you see out in public when you chance a glance out your window. >You don't know what time it is when you finally hear a soft but firm couple of knocks on your door. >At least you think it is, but then you remember who you are, so it was probably a mistake. >The knocks resound once again, though this time, more clearly followed by a masculine voice >“um Hello? I just wanted to uh, greet you I guess but if your not up to it understand” > He seems to linger by the door due to the lack of the boards softly creaking underfoot as they had when he had returned home. >With shaking hoofs you carefully pull yourself from under the covers, taking slow and steady steps. >Just have to say “hi” nothing more then go back to the warmth of your blanket cocoon >As you start to slowly turn the knob at a painfully slow pace you hear a faint shift from beyond the door and a slight creak. >On impulse you yank the door open to quickly resulting in a sore muzzle and you on your back, dazed. >You curse yourself for your conflicting emotions. >You wanted to make a good first impression and maybe not seem like such a freak. >Yet, here you are, on your side dressed in only a musty hoodie you've worn for god knows how long. >”Woah hey are you ok?” >With a short shake of your head you finally lock eyes with your new roommate > He's carefully stooped over you with concern and worry written all over his face > “How are you feeling? Need any ice?” he brushes your bangs out of the way as he examines you closely >Besides the slight soreness, and the feeling of wanting to curl up and die, you feel fine. >After a couple seconds he gives a soft sigh of relief obviously content with his examination. > “Well you seem ok, but let me know if you need anything alright?” He slowly stands up from his kneeling position with a hand out stretched > “The name's Anon, and its a pleasure to make your acquaintance miss ?” >You somehow manage a couple actual words as your shaking hoof meets his soft hand >You slowly right yourself, finally standing on all three of your shaking hooves as you quickly retract your hoof from his hand. > “M-my name's f-floorbored...” your voice trailing off into nothingness >You stare intently at the knots in the wood that makes up the floor. >Very interesting. >Riveting actually. >What a great way to introduce yourself....good job FloorBored... >Be Anon >You have just gotten home and unintentionally startled your new roommate into smacking their face into the door >Your concerned gaze now rests on the mare before you as she idly pokes and prods at the floor. >You shake your head trying to shake the fact you were unintentionally staring, out of your thought process. > “Ah that's right, um I hope this isnt too forward but I'm planning on making something for supper” >You say as you do your best to be upbeat and as friendly as possible > “I'll be making enough for the both of us so your free to join me if you want. If not I'll leave it in the fridge for you” >You do your best to give Floor Bored a warm smile, even if she wasn't looking. > “Take your time and no pressure ok?” you say as you decide to wander back into the living room for now >You yawn softly to yourself, your eyes rolling over to the clock above the TV. >It read 5:30pm >Still too early for supper just yet >You flop down on the well worn couch, sprawling across the cushions as you stare sideways at the tv >You knew that she would be moving in today, and while you didn't know what to expect, its still a lot. >To know that there is now someone living in the same couple rooms as you. >To think that outside of the other noises the other tenants made, that it wouldn't be as quiet around the apartment anymore. >That part excited you a bit, that you wouldn't be so alone anymore. >That maybe things could, no, would be different. >That you would try your hardest to accommodate and be helpful and maybe make a difference. >That maybe...you could actually make a friend that wouldn't just abandon you. >Ok enough mulling over that depressing stuff, your being positive now, remember? >You give a heavy sigh as you reluctantly pull yourself upright make your way to the kitchen >It seemed silly that you spent almost 15 minutes being in your self imposed funk >It was still early but you figure its your first time in a while 'cooking' so you should give yourself some room for error >You pulled some of the fresh ingredients from the fridge, placing them on the counter, and pulling some plates from the cupboard >Your plan for the night was some salad with vegetables and maybe some fruit after. >You kind of knew what you were getting into when you chose to sign those papers >it doesnt change how much you'll need to learn and change to better accommodate Floor Bored >After all you just want to make a good first impression. >Be Floor Bored >You watch as your new weird roommate wandered off >With an internal sigh you shuffle back into your crowded room, shutting the door behind you >You slump down against the door, flopping onto the cold wood floor >Your head resting on the smooth wood >You decide on being....productive? >You don't know if thats the right word >All you know is that you want more room. >You pull yourself up from the floor trotting over to one of the many boxes taking up room. >You start to unpack more of your things that hadn't been tossed out or needed to be burned for health reasons. >You make decent progress as you unbox your various collectables. >Manga and Manega, Figurines in and out of boxes, posters and scrolls, along with some other things you forgot you even had prior to moving. >Your bookshelves and shelving units were now stocked to the brim once again >They displayed your collections perfectly, allowing all to bask in their glow. >Meaning really only you. >Oh well >The next box your end up opening up is one filled with two pillows and a bunch of cases underneath >These were something you were adamant about. >You would not have these thrown out >Your bodypillow and bodypillow cases displaying your husbando's >Thankfully they decided to just get them thoroughly washed instead of burned >You bite your lip softly as you think back to the many nights you've spent in their embrace >......You'll save that train of thought for later tonight >You shift that box aside to open another one >The markings on this box looked like chicken scratch >This was one of the few boxes you packed yourself >For good reason too >It contained some very intimate things >You stared down into the box containing many dildo's of various shapes and sizes >They were coupled with the very limited wardrobe of what you would consider 'lingerie' >Which consisted of some pairs of thigh high's, a couple pare of panties, a blind fold >Buried beneath all of that was a couple other more kinky things but you slowly close the box >....Maybe a short break wouldnt be too bad.. >Your face flushes as your lay down on the floor, covering your eyes with your hooves >You havn't even been here a day and you were already aching to touch yourself >You feel ashamed, pathetic even >But this is something you've felt before, and frequently at that. >You know it will pass >You huff loudly, chewing on your bottom lip softly as you tug one of your smaller toys free from the semi-closed box >You slowly and quietly shimmy under your covers, tugging at them lightly as you pull them closer. >You really need this. >After all today has been really stressful >You deserve at least this much....right? >Be Anon >Your prepping supper for you and your roommate >Having just washed the vegetables you start by peeling the carrots >Once thats done you begin to dice them into bite sized pieces >You figure two whole carrots should be enough for two people right? >You glance at your phone that has the recipe for this specific type salad >With your eyes shut you try to think back to how your mother used to prepare salads >You never paid too much attention in the kitchen, which you regret now, but some of it has rubbed off on you >A small smile forms as you start to chop through the cucumber >Soft slow tapping could be heard through the living room >You were being a bit on the meticulous side but you felt a small bit of pride as you worked >You haven't really cooked for anyone besides yourself >*Clunk* The innards of the bell peppers are tossed in the garbage can as you release your foot from the pedal *Thunk * >With the peppers now properly sliced and diced you look over to the bag of vegetables > “hmm....might be safer to go with these” thinking aloud as you rinse off a bunch of baby tomatoes >You toss them into a small side bowl you get to work on giving the head of lettuce a good washing >With the lettuce peeled and the prepped ingredients ready you glance at the clock >6:30 >You think your parents would be embarrassed by how long that took you >Especially with how much fretting and googling you ended up doing. >Eh whatever, you finished it and its kind of hard to fuck up a salad. >You clean off the counter, rinse off the cutting board and stretch out your shoulders and back >You plate the food and set it at the coffee table as it seemed more apt to be pony friendly >With a few quick presses you put the tv onto a random channel and keep the volume low, mostly out of habit >As you make your way over to your new roommate's door you can hear a bit of noise coming from their room >You have your hand cocked back to rap on the door when your brain finally catches up to you >You finally realize why maybe the rent here wasn't that great >Your face flushes a deep crimson as a mix of muffled and not properly muffled moans emanate from behind the door. >You pivot on your spot and quietly head back to the living room, plopping down onto your worn couch >You shake your head softly before reaching under the coffee table, onto the small shelf, and picking up one of your controllers. >With another couple quick presses the tv shifts from the news to a menu screen >Its probably best that you focus on other things and not the fact your roommate is now not so subtly masturbating in her room. >Your eyes glaze over a bit as you focus on the game at hand, some shooter you picked up a while ago. >Its around 8:30 now as you place your controller on the coffee table, slowly prying yourself your the 'you' shaped indent in the couch >You finished your supper a couple hours ago and put her portion in the fridge, properly wrapped to stay fresh >Surprisingly enough it wasnt until just recently that your roommate's....activity...finally stopped >Let's just say many a death from hell-spawn were caused by the noises in the other room. >At this point you figured it might be pertinent to clean up for the night >Trudging over to the sink you begin your kitchen warfare against the dirt and grime of the dishes. >After pulling the plug you look up at the clock >You know you always make a big deal out of doing the dishes but it never takes long >With a yawn and a soft scratch at your belly you make your way to the bathroom >You look yourself over in the bathroom mirror, giving yourself a once over >Shave might be needed soon, you had a little scruff, but not enough just yet >You finish your nightly bathroom routine as you head to your room >You stop just short of closing your door as a couple of thoughts bounce around in your head >Your worried about Floor Bored >She hasn't left her room since she arrived >You also know it must be hard to just up and move, but you don't want to press the issue >You figure she might just need space >Or time >As you draw your shirt over your head, letting it flop onto your bed, your inhuman hearing picks up something. >...Ok so its just the fact the walls are still paper thin....a man can dream right? >As you lower yourself against your bed you lean back, your head resting against the wall that separates your two rooms. >.....You should just be getting ready for bed....not eavesdropping >You begin to tussle with your inner thoughts >After a couple minutes, and with your resolve steeled you pull your ass off your bed >You tug your shirt over your head slide out your bedroom >You had one last errand to run before you can crash tonight. >Be Floor Bored >Currently wrapped in your thick linens and clinging to your pillows >Your face buried between two of them as you lay against your body pillow >Quietly hoping that all of this stifles the sounds of your openly sobbing >It didnt take long of your internal dialogue to send you into an anxious mess >It was only shortly after that, that everything seemed to finally hit. >With a slight sniffle and a bit of rummaging you poke your head free from the sheets >Your tired and sore eyes lazily wandering around your foreign room before landing on your pc screen >It read 2:35am >Guess you must have dozed off at some point during your emotional break down >Nothing new you guess.. >You right yourself as you slink off the bed, slowly tottering your way to your computer >Your hoof shaking the pony modified mouse to wake the mechanical beast from its slumber >Punching in your login info and setting things in motion you lazily make your way to your bedroom door >You a soft tug and a gentle nudge you pry the old door from its resting place >Only to stumble over something and land face first into the adjacent wall >What the fuck was laying in front of your door? Last you checked this place was as clean as most normie housing >Craning your neck from your now slumped form you can barely see it >Upon righting yourself slowly and you take a closer look at the object softly bathed in the glow of your monitor >It was a teddy bear with a now slightly crumpled note between its paws >Why the hell was this just laying here, and in front of your door of all places!? >With a swift kick it was sent into the adjacent wall, the letter drifting across the floor and now plainly visible >You unfold it to the best of your ability, tired eyes lazily skimming the letter >It wasnt very long >All that read was “I'm sorry. I'm sure today was rough, I'll be here if you need anything. I hope you feel better soon” >....Your eyes and head follow where you kicked the teddy bear to, feeling a pang of guilt for the pain with which you inflicted on it. >You trot over to it, picking it up in your mouth before carefully setting it upright on your bed, sitting back and giving it a long look >It seemed to be made of a soft brown fur, with a small red bow tie around his neck, paw pads visible on each leg and a small smile and cute button nose between his small black button eyes. >With a soft yawn you decide to decide what to think of that later, as you casually make your way to the kitchen >With a soft tug the electric hum of the fridge and its bright bulb were brought to life. >Your eyes squinting and your face scrunched at the 'healthy' choices available. >You finally land on a plated meal, wrapped in plastic wrap, figuring that was what your roommate had made tonight. >It wasn't your first choice honestly >Though....he had made it for you....its the least you could do, and you are hungry... >It'll fill the void till you can actually discuss proper grocery lists with...what was his name? >Oh...right Anon....to be fair today has been kind of a blur.. >Continue to be Floor Bored >It is now around 8:00 am >The food Anon had made last night had filled you for quite a while, and it wasn't completely awful >Though you were getting hungry again at this point, leading to you venturing from your new residence >You had left your room, carefully peering from just a crack in your door, before daring to slowly make your way into the unknown >After your break down earlier everything felt foreign once more, as though you weren't meant to even be here >So you figured you'd do your best to stay out of your roommate's way >You quietly and shakily made your way back into the kitchen area >You began your search for noms. >You had scavenged the cupboards high and low.....mostly just low for fear of making a mess >To your luck you stumbled upon a small treasure trove >A small package, at the back of one of the cupboards, of spicy instant noodles >You had uttered a small prayer to whatever gods of neetdom exist before prepping one for consumption >Once it was ready and you were carefully tucked away in your room, you returned to your task at hand >Playing pc games and flaming the morons in said games. >That was one of your other main vices you picked up from earth >You played a variety of them, ranging from shooters to moba's and anything in between. >It started as a way to kill time but slowly evolved as you needed more to sate your need for entertainment >That and you needed something else to break up the masturbation sessions so you wouldnt rub yourself raw >You slurped down some of your spicy delicacy >Your weary eyes scanning the chat log as you thought about what you were going to do at this point >This MMO has become your flavor of the month currently and it was taking up most of your time >While catching up due to some lost time was important you were wondering currently if a break might be needed >... >While a final tap of the enter key your gaze drifts to the pixelated numbers at the bottom of the screen >Some how another 2 hours had slipped through your hooves >With a heavy sigh you leaned back in your chair, your back popping as you stretched out >A faint click could be heard causing your ear to flicker and swivel towards the noise. >Huh guess Anon must be up >You had put off thinking about the stuffed animal Anon had left you >With a lazy push you swivel your chair to look at it, propped up on your bed still >You silently grind your teeth >You would really rather not leave your room, at least not right now, or not for a while. >But >There was always a but with these things.....heh butt >Bad Floor focus! >You feel like you should say something to him especially after all the effort he went through for you yesterday >If you didn't you would only make yourself feel worse >And quite frankly you'd rather avoid any more pain that you can actively prevent right now >You apparently spent at least a good 5 to 10 minutes with your mental gymnastics >Good job, keep this up and maybe you'll drown in your own spaghetti yet >You slide from your chair, before squirming into a rather worn and used hoodie >It was the only one you had >You carefully and quietly open the door, peering around both corners as some sounds of life came from the living room/kitchen >With soft and hesitant steps you carefully make your way to the corner that lead to the living room portion >You look around, taking in your surroundings again as if it was the first time >Well it was the first time during the day seeing things lit up properly by the sun >Anon was apparently busying himself getting something from the kitchen while the tv seemed to be set to some channel on low >You watch him for a minute or two before carefully trotting over beside the couch >You started to stare idly at the moving shapes and noises from the tv, your eyes glazing over slightly > “Oh you're up, did you sleep well?” >You jump nearly a foot in the air at the sound of Anon's voice cutting through the silence and garbled tv noise > “Gah!” your hooves fumble for purchase as you carefully right yourself so you dont tumble to the floor like some kind of fool > “Sorry, didnt mean to startle you like that Floor Bored” He gives you a warm smile as he sits down on the couch with what you can only assume is coffee >As your eyes dart about, anywhere but where he is, as you try to regain your composure, you settle on mumbling to yourself and staring at the floor >After a couple of seconds you deign yourself a cautious glance up at Anon as he sips his drink >With a couple deep breaths you finally muster up what little courage you have > “I-I.....Just wanted...to say....t-thank you for...u-um yesterday..?” You trail off, somehow ending it as though it were a question >....All those visual novels and dating sims have done you no good with the 3D realm it seems... >He just gives you a small chuckle and keeps that small smile plastered to his face as you watch him from beneath your messy bangs >This seems to be the only way you can keep any kind of eye contact without freaking out...since you know they can't see your eyes that well > “If you meant about supper it wasn't that big of a deal, I just hope you enjoyed it” His tall and lanky form stretching an arm out as he yawns >You gently bite your lip before forcing more of those weird noises you call words from your tightly shut heart > “I......A-also mean't the.....u-uh.....” You huff loudly > “Theteddybearaswellthankyou” You boy your head quickly to avoid any further eye contact >Be Anon >You've been watching this cute mare get flustered over herself for a little bit now >Honestly, your just glad to see her out of her room right now >You gently place a hand on the top of her head before giving her head a soft few scritches near her ear >“You're very welcome Floor Bored” >Its only after your words do you realize she seems to be shaking a bit >You give a cautious look down at her face >You'd say she's as red as a beet >And as if sensing your vision on her, she scurries away, head down, nearly slamming into the wall >As you watch her careen down the hall muttering about having something to do you wonder if you might have made some kind of social faux pas.
