>Be a female caregiver at a group home.
>The three children you take care of all have some range of autism.
>They like toys so you decided to get them fluffy ponies for them to play with.
>One blue pegasus stallion, a male black unicorn, and a green earth mare.
>The fluffies play well with the children.
>Both are easily entertained by things fluffies like to do.
>They can spend hours playing ball, or blocks, or hide and seek.
>The fluffies also serve for calming the kids.
>Petting a fluffy on your lap while it coos softly can do wonders.
>You make sure though that whenever playing is done you are supervising it.
>The fluffies sleep in one room, and the children in another.
>Fluffies come to be considering part of the family.
>One evening you're making spaghetti for the whole family.
>You are in the kitchen getting started boiling the water and warming up the sauce.
>The kids and fluffies are playing right in the next room.
>You got a Nintendo 64 for the kids.
>Sometimes they'll play on it for hours, staring at the TV, with the fluffies equally entranced.
>Right now one child and fluffy are playing on the Nintendo, and the others are just playing on the floor.
>You got out to check on them.
>Gary gets up and asks you if he can go to the bathroom.
>You say yes and tell him to be quick because dinner will be ready soon.
>Twenty minutes later you've finished the giant batch of spaghetti, along with broccoli and biscuits.
>You go in the family room and announce that dinner is ready.
>Wait a minute...
"Where is Gary?"
>"He still in bathroom."
>You tell the children that they are not allowed to be in the bathroom for more than fifteen minutes.
"...What the? And where is Flower?" the green fluffy is gone.
>"Huh? Dunno."
>Things are falling apart.
>You don't like not knowing where the people and things you are responsible for are.
"You all play a little longer. I'll be right back."
>"Okay mommy! Huwwy pwease, wan sketties!" you hear from the black unicorn, Crater.
>You hurriedly walk upstairs.
>Knock on the bathroom door.
"Gary, it's time to come out. You've been in there too long." you say with a nice but authoritative tone.
>"Okay..."
"And where is Flower? She's your fluffy."
>"Uhhh, dunno. No come in."
>Hmm sounds suspicious.
>Then you hear screams coming from inside, along with splashing.
>"Nuuu! Fwowa no wan wawa! Pwease stawp!"
>Flower's in there! And Gary is doing something to her!
>Open the door.
>You she the green fluffy in the toilet flailing her hooves wildly.
>She can't get out of the smooth toilet bowl.
>Gary has his fingers on the handle.
>He's been known to flush toys down the toilet before for no apparent reason.
>Now it looks like he's trying flush this fluffy, which he considers a toy, as well.
>"Gary flush toy."
"No stop!!"
>Before you get to the toilet Gary has flushed it.
>Flower starts to submerge into the water.
>"WAAAGHRRHGHRHGH HEWP!!"
>You grab the fluffy pony from the toilet just before she would have disappeared and been crushed by being forced through the exit.
>Carry Flower back to family room and rest her on a blanket.
>She's choking and gagging.
>Must have swallowed some water.
>You squeeze the fluffy as hard as you can to get the water out of her.
>The other kids and fluffies huddle around you.
>"What wong wif fren? Seabweeze gif huggies?" blue pegasus Seabreeze udders.
"No stay back! I'm trying to save this animal's life!"
>"Wha?? Fwen big owwies? Huggies make betta." Crater says.
>It's not working, she's still choking, and there's not much time left before she dies.
>Begin performing rescue breaths into the fluffy's mouth.
>This is the only way she might be saved.
>Finally Flower coughs up the water she had and starts breathing normally.
>Once she regains her composure she starts crying and giving you hugs.
>"Fank you mommy. Hewp fwuffy fwom wawa munsta."
"You poor girl..."
>"Fwuffy cowd..."
>Wrap Flower in the blanket to dry her off and get warm.
>Starting to think putting fluffies with autistic children was a bad idea.
