Everyp0ny knows that today is the beginning of the cider season.” “Cider season?” >You’re not sure if you can handle more alcohol right now. >… >Maybe just a little bit.   >AJ: “Howdy Anon, are ya here to get some cider?” “I don’t have any money. I was just talking to Lyra.” >Lyra: “Anonymous is really interesting.” >She keeps staring at your hands. >It’s getting weird now. >Nah, you are different p0nies are allowed to stare. >AJ: “Would ya like a taste?” She already poured a full mug for you. >A single drink can’t hurt. “Thanks.” You say as you grab the handle of the mug. >... >You can barely taste the alcohol in this. >Well it has to be child friendly if the Apples are going to sell it to colts and fillies. >But still. >You are kind of disappointed. >Besides the lack of alcohol the cider tastes pretty fucking good. “This is great Applejack. But do you have something a little…” You hesitate for a moment. “Stronger?” >Applejack’s mouth contorts into a grin and she puts her orange marshmallow hoof under the counter and pulls up a large bottle of… >Applejack Daniels. >Of course. >AJ: Here ya go, Anon.” “Well, as I said; I don’t have any money but I’ll buy some of that,” you point at the bottle. “When I get my first salary.” >Applejack beams at you now. “Ya’ll got a job? That’s mighty fine Anon. Here. Take this.” Applejack hands… wait… Applejack hooves you the bottle. “It’s mah way of sayin’ congratulations.” >This mare… “Thanks Applejack, this is really something.” >It isn’t really anything at all, but it’s the symbolic value more than the actual present. >Lyra: “Ahem!.. Some of us are waiting to actually buy something.” “Oh, right.” >You give Lyra a sheepish smile, thank Applejack again and head on home.   >You take a look at your living room. >You can’t believe it. >This place is a mess. >It’s like Hiroshima all over again. >Fucking Celestia. >Oh well you better clean this mess up before Rainbow Dash comes. >That’s right, today is the day she gets out of the hospital. >You would have swung by, but seeing this mess. >Nope. >You better start cleaning. >You fill a large bag with empty wine bottles. >And rearrange the furniture so it doesn’t look like a makeshift scene for Celestia’s karaoke show. >She is going to be the best boss ever. >You pick up the broom and start sweeping. >You there is a big spot on your floor, you get it off after fifteen minutes of scrubbing. >After a long time you are finally done cleaning. >You place your bottle of Applejack D with your other booze and go upstairs. >You walk into your room and undress. >It feels good to be out of those robes. >You feel so liberated letting it all hang like this. >Time for that bath you promised yourself. >You grab a towel from your cupboard and enter your bathroom. >The towel is dropped on the floor and you step up in the tub. >The showerhead’s thin strings of water hits your head and you just stand there reflecting on life and its meaning. >Is there really a god? >What if there are adjacent Equestrias and adjacent Earths to your dimension(s)? >You wonder if that changeling ambassador really is as bad as Celestia told you. >Maybe you can try to befriend him and secure peace for both of your nations. >The water is getting cold now. >You quickly grab the shampoo bottle and press. >A large pool of liquid soap lands on your hand. >You quickly work it into your hair and get it back out again as fast as you can. >The water’s temperature is not pleasant anymore. >Your teeth clatter as you step out of your little philosopher’s bathtub. >Only now do you notice the steady, hard knocking on your door. >You run down the stairs while you wrap your pelvis in the towel. >You turn the doorknob. >RD: “About time.” >She walks right in. >RD: “Wow this place looks much smaller on the outside. “Ummm… yeah. I was just showering. Make yourself at home I’ll be back in a minute.” >You hurry back up the stairs again, dry yourself and put on some new clothes. >You hear Rainbow’s voice from downstairs. “Fluttershy is coming by later with some of my stuff.” >Fluttershy is nice. >Maybe she will bring some food. >The thought of food makes your mouth water and your stomach growl. >You haven’t had lunch because you were too busy cleaning.   >You walk down the stairs and see Rainbow Dash sitting on your sofa. >You sit down beside her and open your mouth to ask her how she is doing but you are cut off by her. >RD: “Why didn’t you come to the hospital? All the others were there.” “Well, I wanted to clean up before you came.” >RD: “Yeah right. You didn’t even think about maybe doing it after I came? I waited for you to come pick me up.” >What the hay! >You spent all day cleaning up just so your ´bro` could come here and rant about you not being there for her. >You cleaned this up for her more than for you. “Do you have any idea what it looks like when you let a drunken Celestia into your house!” >RD: “No.” >IT WAS A RHETORICAL QUESTION. >RD: “Chill dude. What was that with a drunken Celestia?” >Okay maybe yelling at your new roommate is a bad idea. >You should definitely tell her the story of drunk Celestia. “Okay, Celestia came by yesterday to offer me a job…” >RD: “That’s great Anon! We should celebrate.” >No one ever lets you finish. “Yeah yeah, whatever. Anyway I open up a bottle of wine to celebrate, that turns into two bottles of wine and so on.” >Rainbow is snickering now; she knows where this is going. “Celestia starts singing and dancing. Now that I think about it she has an amazing voice.” >The snicker quickly changes into a loud laughter. >Now for the best part. “After she emptied bottle number… I don’t remember she got real~ friendly.” >Rainbow Dash is still laughing when she asks. “Wait a moment… Dick you buck her?” >Now you are the one laughing. “Of course I didn’t bang her.” That sounded a little mean. “I mean she’s my boss, you can’t buck your boss.” >Rainbow Dash’s laughter dies down. “So what are you going to work as? Cleaning toilets at the castle?” >Yeah as if you would ever clean toilets. >Okay you would clean toilets for your salary. “No, I got work as an ambassador.” >Dash’s jaw hits the floor. “An ambassador? That’s awesome!” >Yeah. You are pretty awesome now that you think about it. >Later that day a familiar mail mare knocks on your door. >Derpy: “Hi Anonymous, I have a package for you.” Derpy drops a large cardboard box on your doorstep. “Thank you Derpy.” You say as you pick up the package. >Celestia this thing is heavy. >You shake it a bit. >It sounds like metal. >Derpy: “I’m so happy you are out from the hospital, I couldn’t visit you because I’m not allowed inside with all the expensive stuff.” >That’s why she didn’t visit you. >You thought she just didn’t like you. >You wrap your arms around you and give her a big hug. “I’m glad too.” >RD: “Oh hey Derpy.” >Rainbow Dash appears in the doorway. “What are you doing here?” >Derpy: “I just came to visit Anon and give him a package from Celestia.” >Celestia. >You all stand there for a moment not saying anything. >Aahhh. >This is nice. >Derpy: “… you can let go now.” >You quickly do so. “Hehe, sorry.” >Awkward silence is awkward. >Derpy: “Well I better go.” She says with reddened cheeks. >Not long after Derpy left Rainbow blurts out. “I can’t take it, what’s in the box?” >You bring it inside and open it with a knife. >You LOVE Celestia. >Bits. >Bits everywhere. >And a note. >”Dear Anonymous. >I had a lot of fun yesterday and I look forward to having you work at the castle. Luna might not have gotten a good first impression but I am sure we can fix that. Next time the alcohol is my treat. >As promised 300 bits in advance. >Sincerely yours. Celestia.” >How sweet of her. “Three hundred bits.” You say and tap the box with your hand. >RD: “Sweet, let’s get something to eat and then we’ll figure out what to use the money for.” >Having Rainbro as your roommate is going to be perfect. >You just know it.
