“Ah.”
>The pain lasted just a moment, but it was enough to bring all the emotions out.
>The thoughts.
>Eri drew the knife away from her hind leg and brought it up to look.
>With lidded eyes she watched as a single drop of her own blood trickled down its side to fall to the floor.
>Setting it back down, Eri watched as more blood welled from the new cut in her leg, flowing down and into her fur.
>Most of the fur on her legs had become matted and stained like this, just more and more cuts, more blood.
>No one could understand me.
>How could you even hope to relate to a pony as pathetic and sad as I am?
>Eri stood up and walked over to her fridge, opening the freezer on top to further examine her greatest shame.
>There it stood, in its red and frigid melancholy.
>For a moment, Eri almost held back her tears.
>For a moment.
>Tears falling freely, Eri took the worst mistake she’d ever made out of the freezer and set it onto the kitchen table.
>She took a seat in front of it, trembling all the while.
>Still shaking, sobs wracking her lungs now, Eri suddenly jolted up and rushed to the knife she had left on the floor.
>With a mad dash Eri was back in her seat, knife held to her throat, sobs silenced for now but with tears rushing down her face.
>”I can’t go on like this.”
>Slowly, she pushed the knife harder against her throat, eliciting a whimper and some blood.
 
“Eri? What the fuck?”
>Anon had just walked in the front door, soaked from the rain outside with his coat halfway off.
>”Anon I…”
“Were you about to fucking kill yourself? I mean shit. You’re not a bucket of kittens or anything but… What the hell is that on the table?”
>Eri threw the knife into the corner, bringing both forehooves up to sob into them.
>”I…”
“What?”
>Complete with dramatic flair and a flash of lighting outside, Eri spun the mysterious object around.
>A tub of Poonen Dasz Raspberry Ice Cream.
>”I got the wrong ice cream for you Anon… I know how much you love strawberry. But I still got the wrong one… I’m so worthless…”
