- >You are Fluttershy.
- >Anon is a Human child that lives in Ponyville.
- >When he had first come to Equestria, you had taken an immediate interest in him.
- >So badly, you had wanted Anon to stay with you since he had no home.
- >But it was decided that he would live with Twilight Sparkle.
- >Because she gets everything she wants.
- >That was okay though.
- >You could visit him anytime you wanted.
- >And you did.
- >Every day.
- >It hit you one night that you had fallen in love with Anon.
- >He was so funny and cute and exotic.
- >This of course was before you learned that Anon
- >Was only nine years old.
- >A child.
- >Less than half your age.
- >Even though he was about your size and mature for his age, he was still just a child.
- >A year younger than Spike.
- >This was a devastating blow to your small amount of confidence.
- >For weeks you had fallen for Anon.
- >Become obsessed with him.
- >And all of that was for nothing.
- >He was just a little boy...
- >It had been a few days since you last saw Anon.
- >You had spoken to the therapist pony to try making sense of these new feelings.
- >She offered many solutions and insights.
- >Some helped, some went unheard.
- >Though one thing did come to mind.
- >And that's how you ended up in the park.
- >You sit on a bench, looking this way and that.
- >There are a lot of ponies at the park enjoying their day.
- >Some with families, some with friends.
- >You look at the playground and see a young colt tempting a squirrel with a peanut.
- >The squirrel hops over and snatches the nut, then runs away.
- >The colt looks happy and looks around for more animals.
- >Perfect.
- >You fly over and inch toward the young one.
- "Um, e-e-excuse me."
- >The colt looks at you, "hi?"
- >You nudge a hoof in the squirrel's direction.
- "I have plenty of f-f-furry critters around my house that you can play with... If that's alright with you?"
- >He looks excited.
- >A big confidence booster.
- >"I can do that?!"
- >You nod.
- "If it's o-okay with your parents."
- >The little colt followed you back to your cottage.
- >His parents were happy that the Element of Kindness was watching their child.
- >Your guts twist.
- >The colt runs around playing with a group of ferrets while you watch from your porch.
- >You rest your head on the railing and sigh.
- >It's easy to forget about Anon with this little one rolling around your yard.
- >Your therapist was pretty good.
- -"It could be that you have a repressed motherly instinct that has grown more since spending time with Anon."
- >She was so nice to never hint that your predicament was vulgar.
- >Now you can see Anon's face.
- >He lost a tooth and his smile was so precious.
- >You shake your head.
- >He's better off with Twilight.
- >Pretty, perfect Twilight.
- >The colt runs over to you.
- >"Mrs. Fluttershy! There's a bear over there with a rabbit on his head!"
- >You smile.
- >"They're good friends... Um, do you h-have many friends?"
- >Your guts knot.
- >He nods quickly, "I have LOTS of friends!"
- >You rub your hooves together and swallow a lump in your throat.
- "If, I-I-I-If they want to p-play with the critters, um... You can bring them o-o-over."
- >The next day, the colt brings four of his friends over to your cottage.
- >They all run around your house, playing with your animals.
- >You watch them from the couch.
- >For lunch, you make them sandwiches.
- >At noon, they take a nap on the floor.
- >You cover them with blankets.
- >Watch them sleep peacefully.
- >Your guts writhe.
- >A gentle hoof caresses a cheek.
- >Moves across the neck.
- >Down the side to an unmarked flank.
- >You bite your lip
- >And fly to your room.
- >Ice cold water and soap flows over your hooves as you cry and shiver.
- >More days pass.
- >It has been a long time since you have seen Anon.
- >And it's okay.
- >Every day, a group of colts come to your house to play with all of your critter friends.
- >The young colt who first visited you is your favorite.
- >He's always full of energy, nice to everyone and extremely cute.
- >You have even given him a nickname that he likes.
- >Yesterday he asked if he could have a sleepover with all the animals.
- >That made your guts do flips.
- >Today, as you watch a pile of colts wrestle, he runs over to you.
- >"Mrs. Fluttershy! Guess what?! My mom said I could stay here and sleep over with the animals tonight!"
- >The joy on his face makes you want to squeeze him against you.
- >You grin and rub behind his ear.
- "That's wonderful, Anon."
- >He runs back to his friends.
- >You watch his short tail swish.
- >Tears cloud your vision.
- >It was so nice of your therapist to hint that your thoughts were vulgar.
- >You fly inside to fill the tub with ice cold water for a long bath.
