>You can almost see Celestia's giant white ass from here. >"Oh, Rainbow!" You hear a timid voice call out. You look to see Flutters flying up to you, and you float down >You can actually somewhat control your descent. Somehow, wings feel a lot more comfortable "FLUTTERS CHECK THIS SHIT OUT" >You lean to the side and start strafing, faster and faster until you smack into the side of a building >Fluttershy looks at you for a moment. "U-um, good job!" >She totally loves it. >Rainbow pushed off it and goes back to floating, rubbing the side of her face. You feel alive. Living sucks >You want to die again. >"Ow. So, what's up, 'Shy?" >She floats up next to you. "My day has been going well. How are you two?" >"I'm great!" "Not bad. Today's been good!" >She clapped her hooves together. "Good! I'm glad to hear it." >You grin at the sight, and Rainbow takes over control again, doing a loop around her childhood friend >What a majestic fag-bird. >"So, 'Shy, what'll you be up to today?" >"Oh, nothing. What about you?" >She sighed. "I'm booored." >Fluttershy looked up to the sky. "What would you like to do, Anon?" >You >with muh dik >sexually >Now that your primordial reptile brainstem has been sated by that display of prickery, you actually think for once "I have no fingers and I must vidya." >Fluttershy brightened up. "So you were a griffon? Diamond Dog? Dragon?" "Let's go fuck around in the everfree forest." >The cute one reared back, and the other raised an eyebrow. "Anon, why would we do that?" "Worst case scenario, one of you guys dies. I'm okay with that." >You lower yourselves to the ground, and Rainbow sighed. "Yeah? Well I'm not!" "But Rainbow, then Twilight would have to build ANOTHER lich-changeling-jar! That'd piss her off!" >"Pfft." She suppressed a grin. "And Flutters, it would be an EXPEDITION! A sort of safari in discovering new species of animal!" >Fluttershy looked to the ground, as if actually considering it. "Well...if you want too..."       >You started towards it, eventually the ground dried enough to walk on. You heave a deep breath as you touch down >You hadn't really noticed it, but you were starting to get tired. >You looked into the shaded woods in front of you, the path slowly becoming less and less defined >Fluttershy audiably gulped, and you sat down, wraping a arm around her shoulder. "No worries! We've got this! C'mon, you guys used to go in there all the time!" >Fluttershy blinked. "How did you know that?" "Why are you such a pussy?" >"Because I want to live." "Douché." >"Um, I think it's pronounced tou--" >You stand up and drag her by the hoof into the shade. Dash giggles. "Don't worry, 'Shy! I'll protect ya!" >She sighed in bitter acceptance. You intuitively know that you will hear that often in the years to come. >After a few minutes, the forest suddenly took a darker tone, most of the sunlight blocked off by dense treetops >Occasionally you come across glowing life, mushrooms and various tree-dwelling lizards >Fluttershy slowly begins to ease up, and starts to enjoy the trip even more than you >You happily listen to her talk about the differences between average specimens and everfree variants >She suddenly stops and halts you, walking around a large blue flower. "Poison joke! Don't touch it." >You immedietly start to reach for it, and Rainbow wrests control at the last minute, throwing you into the air >"What the hell, Anon?!" "I NEED IT FOR PRANKS" >Fluttershy pulls you down from the air and gives a stern glare. "No, Anon! Bad!" "But praaanks!" >You stick your bottom lip out, and her stare softens. "W-well..." >Rainbow pushes her away. "Uh, no! No thanks, I've had enough poison joke for a lifetime!" >While they're distracted by eachother, you reach for the flower and pull it by the stem >All is quiet for a moment, neither of them daring to move.           "Hey guys, what's the weirdest thing that ever happened to you?" >They are silent "This one time, I went in the forest, and I found a bunch of mushrooms, and I ate them." >You can feel Rainbow making a confused expression, and Fluttershy looks even more worried. "They weren't hallucinogenic or anything. It was just a box of shiitake mushrooms. Sitting under a tree." >A bead of sweat drifts down your brow. "So like, what's the weirdest thing that ever happened to you?" >Rainbow starts to move the flower, and you immediately hold it closer to your body, stopping her dead "This one time I was was a horse, and I was looking at another horse, and I was like, I'm not gay, but I'd totally do her." >Fluttershy leans back subtly, and Rainbow takes increasingly unsteady breaths "This one time I was doing a thing, and I--" >Dash stops you, taking over your mouth. "Anon, you dont have to--" >You shove the flower in her mouth. Aint no bitch be interrupting you. >You bite into it, and then spit it out. "I regret nothing." >She places her hooves on the side of her head. "Oh no. Nononononono!" >You feel the warp overtaking you >Fluttershy takes your hooves and pulls you to your feet. "Dash! We need to get you to Zecora quickly, before it takes hold!" >Dash barely lets her finish the sentence before locking arms and bolting down the path, carrying her best friend in one arm >As you start to feel your organs rumble beneath you, you see a light before you >The both of you hit the ground, and bang on the door. Zecora opens it, bewildered. >"Why so spastic?! Is it something drastic?!" >Rainbow is too busy gasping for breath after sprinting, and Fluttershy gestures wildly with her hooves. "Poison joke!" >Zecora lowered her head and heaved a sigh. "Is it that time again? How long has it been?" >You nod and grin "I fucked up!"       >She appeared unsurprised. "It is not so bad, stop acting so mad." >"I could lose my wings, doc!" Rainbow fell to the ground in front of her, grabbing her front leg. "Never again..." >"It is temporary, you whining fairy." "Hah. Even Zecora thinks you're a faggot." >Zecora pulls her hoof back and raises a wary eyebrow. "Excuse me, but what the--" >Dash coughs. "I'm also being posessed." >The zigger nods. Faux-wise bitch. "Ah, yes, I have the physical fix for this spiritual mix." >Fluttershy nervously looked side to side. "What do you mean?" >"To make him pass on, I--" >The three of you scream "NO" at once, causing her to jump back >"Son of a bitch, I've forgotten my rhyme. As I am a witch: You'll pay for this crime." >Rainbow gulped. "W-what kind of pay?" >"Every day from dawn till dusk, you pester me with this 'trust'." >"W-what...?" >"Earlier the pink one came to whine, claiming to be in need of lime!" >Rainbow inched back, and Zecora kept on. "As if I had a knick or knack or rhyme or snack for every party she has shat! >"And if I knew that I would not have given friendship back!" >Fluttershy started to raise her hoof, and Zecora shushed her. >"And at that time, I was only to find, it was for you who had gotten in trouble as if it were mine! >"You have princesses at your side, and yet it is me you must confide?! >"In short, my 'sweet cohort', I DONT look forward to your friendship reports!" >She was breathing deeply, her face more red than white or black. Rainbow opened her mouth to speak, and Zecora immedietly shut it >"I aint fixing your shit today!" >She slammed the door in your face. > "PffhahAHAHAHAHAHA" >Your laugh echos through the forest, and you stand up, walking back towards the exit of the deepwoods >Rainbow mentally curls into a ball, and Fluttershy rushes after you. "What are we gonna do?!" "Keep laughing! Hahahaha!" >You start to wind down your laugher, and wipe a tear off your face >except you don't         >You're still laughing >Why are you laughing so hard? This is starting to hurt >You try to take a deep breath and find out you can't. You cough a few times and immedietly start cackling again >Shit. "Haha-f-fluttersHAHAHA, Fluttershy, I can't stop!" >You continue your mad fit, nearly falling on the  ground, holding your belly. >Fluttershy frowns. "You are being very mean right now!" "Hahahaha!" >Your frenzied laughter, finding your voice to become scratchy and strained "It's the poison joke! Hahahaha" >A look of realization dons on her, and she nods, helping you up. "Come on, we'll find something!" >A painfully long journey later, you're out of the everfree and inside ponyville >Each pony shoots you a odd glace or frightened face as they keep a wide berth >"F-Fluttershhahaha!" Rainbow tries to speak, "Why are they looking at me like t-hahaha!" >She grits her teeth. "Don't worry, Dashie, just keep moving." >You make it to the castle, nearly keeling over into the grass more than once >Fluttershy keeps a good hold of you, though, and you make it up the steps. She rings the doorbell, and a moment later came the pop >Twilight opened the door, looking refreshed. She yawned for a moment. "Ahh, hey Fluttershy, how are--SWEET CELESTIA" >She jumps when she sees you, and you fall to the floor, kicking your legs in the air "That was genuinely funny! Hahaha, but not that funny. Hahaha!" >Fluttershy quickly explained the situation. You think. you couldn't hear, you were laughing too hard >Eventually you run out of breath, though, and you wake up covered in purple light. >"I swear, you two together cause too much trouble to handle." >You immedietly start giggling, although it is subdued. >"Oh, Anon's awake." You feel your mouth moving for you >Oh yeah, you're sharing a body. >You take a better look around. You're sitting on a couch, and Twilight and Fluttershy are in front of you "Heya."           >Fluttershy sighed and put a hoof to her chest. "Thank goodness you're safe. The both of you!" >You stop and try for once in your life to actually genuinely smile, before the giggles take over >"This stopped being funny around 30 minutes ago, Anon." >Twilight cleared her throat to get your attention. It somewhat worked. "I'm afraid that's not all." >She wheels a mirror in front of you >Your mane is black, and you have black spots all over you >THE DREAM IS ALIVE >You raise your hooves in the air and give a celebratory "HOO" >You crack up again, and keep giggling harder until Twilight zaps you, calming it back down >"Poison joke, huh? Thought it would be funny, is that right?" "Hey, to be fair..." >You stop for a moment, getting a breath "Pranks." >You begin chuckling again >Rainbow wheezes and grabs her ribcage. "My lungs haven't ached this much since my first rainboom." >Twilight rolls her eyes. "Rainbow, you're just as much to blame! Going to the everfree, really?" "Hey, she only did it on the possibility of annoying you, so I think it's justified!" >Rainbow begins the cackling again and Twilight zaps a second time, causing you to wince. >"Look, I can't spend all day zapping you. You have to stay calm and try not to break out again." >She turns around and heads back to her study "What if we do?" >"Try not to die." "Oh, like that worked the first time!" >You begin laughing harder, and a zap curves directly from the doorway into your face, feeling like a kick in the snout "Then again, I didn't try all that hard on the first go round." >Silence >Right, kid's show. >You jump off the couch, and start walking to the door, and Fluttershy throws a hoof up >"Wait! What if you start laughing again?!" >Your smile barely holds back a chuckle. "You'll just have to hit me! Don't worry, it's not like it'll mess up her face." >Your laughter begins again and you barely contain it >You're going to have to stop being funny. >implying you ever were
