  1. >You get out from the lake and shake like a dog trying to get the water off, but it doesn’t help
  2. >You grab your stuff and get going back to the farm
  3. >You catch your self-think about sally
  4. >She was acting really strange but you brush it off, It was kind cute for a pony
  5. >You walk back to AJ’s house, you can smell the sweet scent of apple pie
  6. >The apple family has always been extremely hospitable over the past years
  7. >You see granny smith sleeping on the rocking chair on the front porch
  8. >You sneak up the steps and you her mumble to her self
  9. >“No see, that there is my apple sauce”
  10. >She starts moving her hands and you notice that she was crocheting socks with little apples all over them
  11. >You open the door slowly and hear a slow steady creaking noise
  12. >Granny smith starts mumbling some more
  13. “Have sweet dreams granny, you whisper
  14. >You shut the door behind you and it creaks again
  15. >You turn around relieved; the smell of apple pie saturates the air
  16. >You hear some pots and pans turning
  17. >You turn the corner to see Apple washing the dishes
  18. “Sup AJ”
  19. >She looks at you concerned; you can see it in her eyes
  20. >“Anon where you been!!”
  21. “Umm...”
  22. >Before you can talk, she adds to her sentence
  23. >“What about sally, I haven’t see her I since I yelled at her”
  24. >You assure AJ that sally is ok
  25. >"She fine, relax, and you know she has a problem when you call her sally right"
  26. >Applejack blinks, then shakes her head and sighs.
  27. >"To be honest, no I didn't have a clue.”
  28. >She looks at you wearily, "Sometimes it's so hard to tell with that filly. Sweet gal but not real easy to have a heart to heart with”
  29. >"But she talked to you? Well shucks that's a nice change. Did she seem..." she pauses, looking for the right word. "Happy to you?"
  30. “It was weird, I think she has trust issues or something." you shrug you shoulder nonchalantly, "she said she was here for good, and then I asked her about it, it was.....weird too, why she stayin with you guys??
  31. >She chewed her lower lip a moment as if carefully considering what to say.
  32. > "Well," she says haltingly. "That's a bit of a story, and more hers to tell than mine, but I will say that she needed real bad to get away from where she was.
  33. >She begins to smiles, looking away as if reflecting
  34. >“And of course, you know granny, she opened our doors right up. Sally doesn’t know any pony around these parts so we're all she's got."
  35. >You can’t stop thinking about what you saw, you’re sure that cutie mark was fake, and now you know she was lying about that friend....but you don’t know whether to asks AJ or not.
  36. >you feel like you’ve said enough, and feel it would be better to ask Sweet&Low yourself
  37. >you realize that you’re standing in the kitchen with just boxers on
  38. “Oh, um AJ about my arms and a back.” you say with an awkward smile
  39. >Applejack suddenly seems to notice your battered appearance.
  40. >"Good gracious Anon, you're all beat up!"
  41. >She trots quickly to a nearby cabinet where she kept a first aid kit.
  42. >"Can't believe you've been traipsing around all this time looking like that. Gonna make me worried sick."
  43. >You laugh a little, it’s always funny seeing AJ when she freaks out, you watch as she looks through the cabinet shuffling and moving thing until she finds she’s looking for
  44. >Your smile quickly turns to fright as you see her pull out a bottle of rubbing alcohol
  45. >Applejack manages to smile a little as she notices your anxious look
  46. >"Now, don't you fret sugarcube. Just gonna clean you up a little. You can even ask Apple Bloom, I'm real gentle with this. You'll be right as rain soon enough."
  47. >Right as rain, you think….what does that even mean
  48. >She dabs a cotton ball into the rubbing alcohol then approaches you slowly.
  49. >You take a seat and close your eyes as you extend your arm out, and seeing that you cooperating, she rubs the cotton swab on your scrape
  50. >You wince with your face turned as far away from your arm as physically possible
  51. >at first it feels cool and you start to relax, then as your guard is down, it instantly starts to sting
  52. “Doesn’t hurt, MY ASS!!”
  53. >"Now I never said it wouldn't hurt, just that I'd be gentle. And watch that cussin in my house."
  54. >She adds this last part in a slightly sharper tone. "Now hold still I'm almost done."
  55. >you say ok in pain , and then a thought crosses your mind, you remember Sweet&Low saying something like that, you have to ask
  56. "Hey AJ??"
  57. >What's on your mind?" she mutters past the cotton swab.
  58. “Are you and Sweet&Low related??”, you ask
  59. >“She laughs "Well not by blood no. But Granny Smith was best pals with her granny growing up, so we're just about like cousins. You know, we picked her up this morning, from the train station." she adds "I hope her moving here will set her right."
  60. You think, about why you didn't see her this morning, as Aj steps back to look over her work so far, studying your body.
  61. >"Ah," she says suddenly. "You got a little one up on your head"
  62. >She indicates a small cut right above your temple. "Hold still now, this is just about the last one.
  63. >She puts a hoof on your knee to prop herself up higher and then places her other hoof under your chin to hold your head steady.
  64. >Her nose brushes against your cheek as she cleans the cut on your face.
  65. >You’re a little angry because how thorough she is, but you begin to blush because you’d never expect a pony to be cleaning you wound, especially like this
  66. >Just then the back door, which was located conveniently in the kitchen, opens and Sweet&Low enters
  67. >Her already sad and defeated face turns dull when she sees the two of you
  68. >You look at Sweet&Low, still blushing, and say “Sally” under your breath
  69. >Applejack, being even more oblivious then you looks up and spots her.
  70. >She drops the cotton swab and hops back off of your knee. "Sally! Am I’m sure glad to see you! I was getting plumb worried you'd got lost or somethin."
  71. She looks down, “Oh sorry, I didn’t mean to interrupt you two
  72. >It is extremely awkward, and you try to change the subject
  73. "So how was hangin out with your friend”
  74. >Just then you realized what AJ said about Sally not knowing anyone here and immediately end your sentence
  75. >She look at you and makes a forced smile we had fun, she turns quickly and walks out of the room, and you make out the shine of tears running down her cheek
  76. >AJ is about to say something, but you stop her
  77. >As soon as Sweet&Low walks out the room you hear her start to gallop down around the hallways and up the stairs
  78. >You wait for her to close the door, and proceed to discuss what just happened
  79. >"Anon, what was that for, it looks like we've done something to upset her." Applejack says. "Not sure what but she seems real down in the dumps.
  80. >“Heck I didn't know she had a friend in town. She didn't say nothin to me. Unless..." Applejack shakes her head. "Ah never mind it, not my business."
  81. “AJ, sometimes people just need space, there’s probably nothing we can do to fix it…only time I guess”
  82. >"Here, could you take her up a slice of pie? She doesn't seem to want to talk to me much, maybe you'll do better. And hey, if not," Here Applejack cracks a smile. “Granny’s apple pie can solve most problems on its own."
  83. >She looks down now, “Sorry anon, today just isn’t my day
  84. >"AJ don’t be so hard on yourself, your just tryin to help, and I know you, you'd never do anything to hurt anyone, I guess things just get fu...i mean messed up
  85. >Although she hears you almost drop an F bomb, she pays no attention to it
  86. >"Thanks anon, I don’t know if you known it, but your darn good at making ponies feel better about themselves"
  87. >She gives you a weird smile and you don't know really how to take it
  88. >"Oh, anon, I forgot to patch ya up”
  89. >You get up and grab a slice of pie, while apple jack grabs some gauze wrap
  90. “Don’t worry about it, ill wrap myself up” you say kindly. You feel as though you disrespecting her somehow "I mean not that hooves can do any better than hands, I'm mean cant....you begin to blush, I mean you have pretty hooves”
  91. >Apple jack begins to blush too, which is something you think you'd never see in your life time
  92. >She give you that same smile, you don’t know how to react to it
  93. >I should give this to Sweet&Low you say anxiously as AJ gives you the gauze wrap
  94. >You then turn and apple jack realizes she forget to clean the scratches on your back
  95. >"Anon wait I still need to clean your back"
  96. >You turn back at her with the most serious face you can muster
  97. "Rubbing alcohol is the devil"
  98. >She looks at you confused
  99. >You’re giving her the squinty eyes, as you glance at the rubbing alcohol then back at her, then turn around and walk out the room
  100. >The aroma of the slice of pie fills the air around you as you walk up the stairs
  101. >You now realize you havn't eaten anything the whole day, but this pie was for sally
  102. >You reach the guest room and knock but don’t hear anything so you pause for a second, while you look at the door knob
  103. >It’s probably locked, but it’s worth a shot, so you turn it
  104. >To your surprise, it unlatch, as if it wasn’t properly locked
  105. >Sally is laying face first in to the covers, but as soon as the door opens, she gets up in shock to see who the intruder is
  106. >Again, you see the shine of her wet cheeks
  107. >She then throws her head in the pillows saying “Go away” in a loud audible voice
  108. "I um brought you some pie"
  109. >"I don’t want it"
  110. "Well I’ll just set it down in case you change your mind"
  111. >"I."
  112. >"dont."
  113. >"want."
  114. >"it."
  115. >Her voice is muffled under the pillow but you can tell how serious she is
  116. "I’ll just eat it then, I’ll see you around"
  117. >She doesn't reply
  118. >You set the pie down gently enough on the night stand so that she can’t hear it
  119. >You pause in the doorway "Hey I'll teach you how to farm tomorrow ok? See you later?" you lock her door so no one can intrude, and leave.
  120. >You walk down the stairs with a loss of appetite, which is unheard of whenever pie is in the discussion
  121. >You forgot you boots and jeans on the chair, you thinks it’s a good time to leave
  122. >You walk in to the kitchen and see that apple jack has just started washing the dishes
  123. >“So how’d it go” she looks at you with an anxious smile
  124. >Well I gave her the pie, so its wasn’t a complete fail, oh and I told her I’d show her how to farm, but we’ll see what happens tomorrow
  125. >“Anon that’s a perfect idea, only,” she pauses to think of how to put, while she takes a freshly washed plate out of the sink and puts it into the drying rack,” you’re not a pony. I mean I betch ya know your way around the farm better then big mac. No offence to big mac” she adds
  126. >you can imagine Big Mac coming out of nowhere and saying “None taken”
  127. >“There are some thing only a pony can teach a pony
  128. “like what” you inquire
  129. >“Well for starters, you’ve seen big mac and I buck apples plenty a time, but I recon you wouldn’t have the slightest clue how to teach a pony”
  130. >You laugh “You’re probably right AJ, and knowing Sally, she’d probably need two pony teaching her how to buck a tree”
  131. >”Or three” Apple jack adds, and you both break into laughter
  132. >Your laugher is cut short by the sound of your stomach growing
  133. >Oh Anon you poor thing, you haven’t eaten anything since this mornin, don’t be no stranger, there’s plenty more apple pie
  134. I don’t really feel hungry AJ, ill grab some on the go
  135. She dry dries off her hooves and container and puts a couple of slices of pie in it
  136. >You put on your jeans then boots
  137. “For the most part, I can teach her the basics and show her around. By the way, have you seen Big Mac or did he go home without me??
  138. >She hands you some pie and replies, “I donno, haven’t seen him around”
  139. “Thanks Apple jack, I’ll see you guys tomorrow then,” you say as you start walking toward the door “I really appreciate all the hospitality”
  140. >“No need, you’re an apple, remember that”
  141. >You smile happily and leave
  142. You open the door slowly remembering that granny was sleeping earlier, and sure enough, there she is snoring
  143. “goodnight granny” you whisper as you close the door an sneak down the stairs
  144. You walk over the barn where you had been originally been moving hay bales earlier to grab your shirt
  145. Lo and behold, guess who sleeping in grass just as before
  146. You grab your shirt from a nearby fence post, the suns setting now
  147. Hey big, wake up

  150. “Oh, hi anon”

  175. at first thought of working for them as a job to repay them and you hated it, but now it was like a daily routine, and it was fun, you did it with your new family
  176. you walk up the steps and open the door
  177. You never bothered to lock the door, just like AJs house
  178. Big mac sits himself down on the on the bean bag and grabs his violin that was always placed on the floor besides it. You go the kitchen and grab a doctor cider then take out the gauze wrap out of your pocket
  179. Your too lazy to take a shower, besides jumping in a lake is basically a shower for you
  180. You wrap up your arms
  181. Big mac starts strumming the guitar
  182. You go to the bathroom and look at your back, it’s not that bad, but some wrap won’t hurt
  183. You need to clean it though, and you’re thinking you need to take a shower
  184. You wrapped up your arm so well, and you’re gonna have to take a shower
  185. “Niggers!” you shout
  186. Big mac starts laughing
  187. You go in to the room while unraveling your wraps form your arms

  189. He just sits her smiling at you
  190. You start lauging, ahah fuck you Big, I bet your only playing that violin cus you wanna bang Octavia

  202. Now for the gaze

  214. Man today isn’t my day, maybe my story might fair a little better
  215. So you start witing
  216. Then RVG blasted NMM with his huge plasma canon of justice and it hit her dead in the face. NMM's face melted and what was left was a fuckin metal pony skull!!!! She was all like “You think you can destroy me with that little thing.” RVG was scared and left without any option…..then he realized she was a fucking robit. EVERY ONE Knows Robits have a weakness, RVG used the last of his magic bean to summon FUCKIN Magnets. The he threw them at NMM and she exploded. Princes Peach came out of fucking nowhere and was like, “RVG you’re amazing, and I LOVE YOU. KISS ME, and let’s make babies. RVG slicked his hair back and said “Sure” in the most bad boy way.
