Suicide in Equestria - Fluttershy (After-story short)

(Originally written Oct. 30 2014, as requested after I tickled at someone's interest by mentioning that I had given it some thought)

>Darkness was everywhere, absolutely nothing to sense around you
>But your mind was still well at work
>From the silence, words echo in the distance
>"Thank you... Mr. Anonymous."
>"I mean... Anon."
>"Could you please just... give him back?"
>"Anon... What do I have to do?"
>...
>"I promise..."
>From the darkness, a light emerges
>"One day..."
>Bands of white reach out and ramify over the black like roots
>"I'll find you again..."
>As the words in your mind cease, not a speck of darkness remains
>Your senses fade back in, you hear birds chirping
>Foals playing
>General clamor that typifies a weekend afternoon
>Finally, you open your eyes
>The sun is the first thing you see up above
>A purple blur flies by overhead, with a joyful giggle fading in just as quickly as it fades out
>It is closely followed by a rainbow blur laughing merrily as it zooms overhead
>You sit up and rub your head, which feels like absolute shit now
>Looking around, you noticed you were lying in the grass in the center of a bunch of trees
>Autumn leaves covered the ground everywhere but where you had been lying
>Did you fall?
>While you attempt to recap and recuperate, a voice from behind you breaks your focus
>"Excuse me..."
>You turn to see a yellow pegasus standing there, looking you in the face
>"Are you okay mister?"
>You drink in the sight of her radiant blue eyes as the wind sends her mane into a gentle flow beside her
>From the top of her mane, a white rabbit makes his way out to assess the situation
>He furls his brow at you inquisitively
>You mirror his gesture, returning your gaze to the beautiful mare before you

>Scratching your head, you finally answer her
"I'm fine miss. Guess I was just out for a nap."
>"Oh, okay. I won't bother you anymore. Enjoy your nap!"
>She gives you a gleaming smile before continuing on her way
"Wait!"
>She halts and turns back to you
"I didn't catch your name. I'm Anonymous."
>"My name's Fluttershy! Pleased to meet you... Anonymous."
"Call me Anon."
>"Okay... Anon. Glad to meet you!"
"Likewise. Maybe we could... hang out sometime?"
>She blushes, evidently a little shocked by your proposition
>"I'd... like that."
"As would I."
>"We could meet at Sugarcube Corner later on today? I have a few errands-"
"I could help..."
>You both pause awkwardly as your faces run red
"Or... I could-"
>"No no, I could use the assistance!"
>All you needed to hear
>You inhale deeply and spring to your feet
>You gesture for her to lead the way
>She starts onward, a smile on her face
>As she walks, you notice her lovely haunches swaying gently with each step
>You sweat a little and fan yourself as you begin walking to keep up
>The bunny pokes his head out from her mane again and blows raspberry at you
>You gesture for him to hold that thought, then reach into your pocket
>He emerges fully and watches eagerly
>Ah, there it is
>You pull out a middle finger for that little faggot
>He crosses his arms and turns away from you
>As you catch up, you use your finger to tap his chest twice
>He looks confusedly at where you tapped him, then up at you
>You smile warmly and extend your fist out to him
>He laughs a little and bumps it with his
>Fluttershy notices and looks back at you two as she continues walking
>"You two seem to be getting along well. Angel doesn't usually behave so well with strangers."
"I'm good with animals."
>"... But come to think of it, neither do I. How... weird."
"Life has some pretty weird surprises."
>She nods in agreement
"So... what was on that list of errands?"
>"Oh, that was just one of my favorite excuses. I was actually going home to masturbate."
