Mute Anon 12

>2 YEARS AGO
>You are awake
>You are not in bed
>You are not in your home
>And it doesn’t look like you’ll be getting back anytime soon
>In less than a blink of an eye you appeared here
>In this forest
>Were you kidnapped?
>You didn’t have anything valuable on before coming here
>Just the clothes you were wearing
>There aren’t any injuries on you either
>It’s all an unnerving experience
>Part of you is hoping that at the end of this forest there will be a place you recognize
>The crappy thing is, you don’t recall a forest like this where you lived
>At least it didn’t look or feel like this
>There was something different about this place
>You’ve been walking for 4 hours now
>Hoping to find a way out
>You hate to admit it, but you’re just wandering at this point
>The thick fog and large canopies make it easy to get lost
>You haven’t changed directions though, because you’re starting to see less fog than you did before
>The canopies are starting to let in more sunlight too
>You just hope someone comes looking for you
>Not that there would be, and that’s your fault not anyone else’s
>You lived pretty isolated not because you were depressed
>Or because people didn’t like you
>Quite the opposite actually
>They always were trying to help you because of your disability
>To pity you, and try to make things easy for you
>It bugged you
>You knew how to be independent
>So one day you decided to live independently
>You still remained in contact with family and friends
>But not nearly as often or as conveniently as you used to
>It might be a week or two before anyone knows you’re missing
>You push those negative thoughts out of your head
>Just be optimistic
>You hear loud howling noises
>Of course that would happen
>You try to ignore it because wolf howls can be heard from far away
>That was a mistake
>Before you knew it wolves began to run past you
>You hold your ground
>They want you to run, and it’s a damn good idea not to give them what they want
>Besides wolves are afraid of humans
>The few wolves surround you
>And what you see freaks you out
>They were made of wood?!
>Was this real?
>The wolves noticing how tall you were
>Started backing away, especially since you were standing your ground
>You sigh in relief
>All though you’re still eyeing them to make sure they’re real wolves
>This certainly feels like the start of a nightmare
>As soon as they’re backed up enough a few begin to turn around
>You’re about to continue on your way when you hear howling again
>A much larger ….wood-wolf?
>Timber wolf?
>Let’s go with timber wolf
>It looked like an alpha, because it’s the ugliest, angriest, and largest wolf
>This one doesn’t look afraid of you
>Fighting the urge to run at this point
>The alpha pounces at you
>You dodge it, but its claws graze an arm
>You wince, and kick the thing in its face
>There’s blood, this is definitely real
>Time to go
>You’re panicked and you sprint away
>This was a bad idea
>Evident by the entire fucking pack giving chase now
>It’s only a matter of time before they catch you
>You scan your surrounding and find a tree with low hanging branches
>It’s an old, dead, and brittle tree
>Oh well, you climb that thing faster than you ever thought you could
>The timber wolves quickly surround the tree
>They can’t reach you
>Hopefully they’ll leave in a few minutes
>You watch every single one of them intently
>A half hour passes
>These things were persistent
>You’re sure wolves on your world wouldn’t have wasted their time
>Some have tried jumping at you or even getting up the tree themselves
>They had no luck so far
>All the while the alpha is staring at you as if trying to solve a puzzle
>This is all too strange to you
>You’re not sure where you’ve ended up
>But it sure as hell isn’t the place you came from
>These creatures seemed smarter
>This was proven when one of the wolves rammed into the trunk of the tree
>The tree shook and a part of the trunk eroded away
>This was a very dead tree
>Instead of ignoring that though
>The alpha began to ram into the tree as well
>The tree shook and more of the trunk broke
>The other wolves began to pick up on this
>They were now doing the same
>Shit shit shit!
>You’re hyperventilating
>Are you really going to die here?
>By these things?
>You don’t want to die ignorant of why you’re here or where you are
>To be lost and forgotten
>To die alone
>These stupid things, if they would just leave
>You’re angry
>You let loose a blood-curdling yell to vent your frustration and in an effort to drive off the wolves
>They stop for a moment
>A few look afraid, but the alpha isn’t
>That fucking alpha
>You try it again, but this time it’s more of a scream of terror and distress
>It still distracts the wolves, but it’s too late
>The tree begins to fall, and by extension you
>Branches cut and bruise you on the way down
>Soon you’re dazed and surrounded by branches and chunks of brittle wood
>The timber wolves have made a wide circle around you
>You wait for oncoming attack
>But it doesn’t happen
>They just surround you, and the alpha approaches
>It almost looks to be smiley cruelly as it makes its way slowly to you
>So this is it
>You’re going to die here
>You shut your eyes and grit your teeth
>Cursing these fucking things to whatever pit of hell they came from
>”Now wait just a minute mister!”
>Your eyes burst open
>You turn your head upwards
>There in the rays of sunlight descended a pair of golden wings
>You were confused and dazed but it looked like an angel
>You weren’t superstitious, but this felt like a miracle
>She was an otherworldly sight, with her soft large eyes and flowing pink hair
>She landed down in front of you, but was facing the alpha
>She was…a small cute flying horse?
>This was odd, but you were just so happy and relieved
>And she still looked the part of an angel
>The alpha growled at her
>”Don’t give me any back-talk and don’t you sass me!”
>The alpha whined
>”You didn’t want to eat anything!”
>”You just wanted to be mean!”
>She was looking straight at it, and it was terrifying the wolf
>It looked like it could break down and cry
>”Now go home, and don’t let me catch you doing this ever again!”
>It whined as it ran off with the rest of the pack following close behind
>You’re so relieved
>She turns to you
>”Are you alright?”
>She looks up at you with her teal eyes, full of concern and even curiosity
>”I’ve never seen a creature like you before…”
>You hug her and begin to tear up in relief
>She saved you, and you’re so grateful
>”Eep!”
>You startled her, but she begins to hug you back
>”There, there it’ll be alright.”
>She rubs your back and her hind hooves step up onto your lap
>She nuzzles you and you pat her head
>You want to say thank you but you can’t
>So you smile in relief
>At her, whatever she is, your savior
>”Oh my! You’re hurt!”
>She looks at the gashes across your arm
>”Come with me little one, I’ll take care of you.”
>Little?
>She gets off your lap and you stand up
>”You’re much bigger than I thought.”
>You trust her right now, but you’re not sure what’s going to happen
>You follow her out of the forest and into a meadow
>It’s beautiful
>It’s like out of a fantasy picture or a story book
>A small and neat cottage is nicely placed by a calm stream
>There’s animals running around freely
>The grass is just the right green, and blows slightly in the breeze
>Flowers of all kinds of colors pop out from area as if carefully arranged
>Everything grew evenly and there were no clouds in the sky
>The sun shone and illuminated all of this and gave it a glow
>If you could take a picture it’d make a perfect post card to send back home
>It all seemed fabricated in a way, but that didn’t make it any less beautiful
>Your companion giggles at your reaction
>Your eyes were wide and taking it all in
>”I know you seem to like this place, but we have to go inside to take care of you now.”
>You nod
>You bumped your head a few times on the way inside
>She got quite concerned and gasped
>”Are you okay?”
>Roll your eyes, you can tell she’s a worry wart
>You sit down on the floor of the cottage and she talks to you as she treats your wounds
>”I don’t know what you are but you seem to be some sort of primate.”
>”Why do you have clothes?”
>”Do you have a home?”
>”Have you seen ponies before?”
>You tune her out, because you’re looking at your surroundings and at her
>After she finishes you run a hand through her soft mane
>She coos a little
>”That feels nice.”
>”But you didn’t answer my um…questions.”
>She realizes something
>”Oh how rude of me!”
>”I’m Fluttershy.”
>You think for a moment
>Will she understand sign language?
>It’s already weird how she knows English
>You give it a try
>You sign your name
>”Anon?”
>You nod
>Whoa
>Fluttershy smiles
>”It’s good to meet a new friend, Anon.”
>Your eyes widen
>You sign, ask her how she understands
>”Well, I can understand animals very well.”
>She nuzzles your hand
>This causes you to frown
>You sign, tell her you’re not an animal
>”Oh um, b-but you’re not talking and you’re not a pony and you’re a bit…um cute so uuuh.”
>Her flustered reaction causes you to laugh
>You use sign language to ask her for something to write with
>Fluttershy looks confused but complies
>She waits for you to write something
>You write: “I’m smart, and most of my kind can talk. I’m the exception.”
>Fluttershy looks sad
>”Oh I’m sorry….but I can still care for you if you’re lost.”
>That warms your heart
>That she would go out of her way to help you like this
>You write: “I am lost. I come from a place with no talking and flying horses.”
>”I’m a pony silly, a pegasus pony.”
>She displays her wingspan
>You pet her wings to see if they’re real
>She blushes and seems surprised, but she allows it
>Then it hits you
>You’re lost
>Maybe in another reality, world, or dimension
>The reality of the situation sort of hits you there
>You begin to feel frightened
>Will you ever get back home?
>You’re lost in this alien place
>With no one you know able to contact you
>And you might just be considered dead after a year or two
>Can you really survive here?
>Everything you may have learned back home may not apply here
>That terrifies you
>Fluttershy notices this
>”It’s okay I’m with you now.”
>”Nothing is going to hurt you.”
>You look into her eyes and something tells you this is true
>She really is an angel, huh?
>You calm down for now
>You sign to her, thank her so much for saving you.
>Her smile grows
>”Why don’t you tell me a little about yourself? I want to know all about….um your species.”
>It’s the least you can do and so you spend the rest of the day discussing humans with her
>She lets you sleep next to her that night, as you ponder where your life will go from here on
>1 month later
>You’ve gotten quite close to Fluttershy in the past month
>She seems fascinated with the things you tell her
>You two get along quite well, you hardly annoy each other, you go along with whatever activity she enjoys and you help her with animals when you can
>But you aren’t happy here
>You miss home, and she can see that
>Especially since your discussions of your world sink in the fact that you’re not on Earth anymore
>You’re sure this is a different world now
>The sun and moon centered on this world?
>Magic?
>No other humans?
>This isn’t Earth that’s for sure
>The locals here don’t know what to make of you
>A few are a bit scared
>A few babytalk you and ask Fluttershy things you wish you could answer yourself
>And the rest just avoid you
>None of them take you seriously
>Fluttershy’s friends are nice enough, but they see you as a kid now, or a pet
>In fact it’s hard to find work here because they say that society will take care of you like the rest of the animals
>That always pisses you off, but you know they aren’t trying to be rude or malicious
>It doesn’t hurt your feelings any less though
>This evening you’re going to Twilight’s to have your weekly discussions
>Or debates
>You tell her everything you know about your species and she records down your anatomy, etc. etc.
>Science stuff
>The only problem is that things you tell her about your world always bugs her
>And things she tells you about this world bugs you
>In fact she and quite a few ponies don’t think you come from another world
>They don’t believe you and you can’t really prove it
>They assure you that their theories on where you came from are correct and that you’re just misguided
>You are having this discussion with Twilight for the third time
>You write: “I don’t know why you have to doubt my claims. It’s a bit strange but so is everything in this world. Besides I’m not stupid, I can write and my explanations have logic behind it.”
>Twilight frowns
>She likes to write back to you sometimes instead of talking
>She writes: “Anon how could you get to the moon without magic? How did they not find Nightmare Moon?”
>You hate magic it was the explanation behind everything here
>You write: “With rocket ships, carefully planned operations, communication, and physics. Practical stuff and your moon is not our moon.”
>She writes: “Okay, that’s only if you really did come from another world.”
>You write: “I did, I didn’t come from another country like you proposed, and I’m aware of what I’m talking about!”
>You write: “For starters there is no magic! We also don’t have some silly magic controlling the sun!”
>She scoffs
>She writes: “How could you have no magic? I know you told me about how your sun works and that’s a fascinating explanation, but no magic?”
>Twilight was apparently an expert on magic. It was her life and you guess she can’t imagine a world without it
>You write: “It’s true.  Why would another world have to be like this one?”
>She writes: “That’s possible, but are you really so sure?”
>You write: “Yes I’m sure it had no magic, and that Equestria was never on a map where I came from!”
>She writes: “It still seems wrong. Magic is a huge part of how the world works!”
>You write: “If magic is so great why can’t it send me home? Why don’t you write to that princess or something? She can move the sun why can’t she help me?”
>Twilight seems annoyed enough to just talk
>”It’s not something she should waste her time on! We don’t know if you really did come from another world!”
>You write: “I do, because I had to live in it!”
>You put your palms into your face and sigh
>You then write: “We’re done for today.”
>Before Twilight can respond you storm out
>You just ignore any ponies that stare at you
>You don’t smile or even wave at ponies trying to be friendly to you
>You arrive at Fluttershy’s cottage and hole yourself up in the bedroom
>Not a lot of things got to you
>The patronizing didn’t you were used to that
>Being confused for an animal. Well you’re getting used to it and getting some success in fixing
>Not being home didn’t bother you unless you had to think about it too long
>But when ponies didn’t believe you about where you came from
>It disturbed you and angered you
>It was still only dusk, but you just wanted to sleep right now
>Fluttershy comes upstairs
>”Anon what’s wrong, sweetie?”
>Her voice soothes you
>You smell a good aroma that makes your stomach grumble
>It was soup
>”You shouldn’t go to bed without supper.”
>She goes over to you and you sit up from the floor and throw off the blanket
>Fluttershy insists you can sleep in the bed with her, but it seems a bit strange and rude of you
>Besides her bed is a bit small
>She goes over to you and hovers around your eye level
>Fluttershy then tries to feed you the soup, but you roll your eyes and take the bowl away
>You can handle this yourself
>You drink it in one go and Fluttershy lectures you about drinking it all so fast
>You then sign her thanks and decide to go to bed
>”It’s still a bit early for that are you sure?”
>”I think something’s wrong and you’re not telling me.”
>”I want you to tell me…. if you wouldn’t mind of course.”
>You sign to her, she wouldn’t care.
>”Anon I do care.”
>While that’s a nice sentiment you’re sure she doesn’t really care
>Sure she believed you about your world but it’s not something she should be concerned with
>You look into her eyes full of concern for you
>You sigh
>Through sign language it takes some time, but you tell her about your recent conversation with Twilight and your feelings on ponies telling you that you’re wrong
>”Oh, I’m so sorry Anon.”
>She nuzzles you
>”It’s just that they don’t see you the way I do. That you’re just like us and that what you say can’t be made up. You’ve told me so much, nice things, sad things, beautiful things, bad things, and it all seems so real.”
>She beams at you
>”I believe you Anon.”
>You scratch behind her ears and pet her mane
>She knows how to cheer you up
>You wish the others had her understanding
>You sign this to her
>”Maybe they don’t truly understand what you’re saying.”
>She puts a hoof thoughtfully to her chin
>”If you show them in some other way….maybe they’ll understand.”
>Have an idea
>You sign to her, tell her you’re going to make them see it.
>She says sweetly
>”I know you will, mister.”
>A week passes and you’re on your way to Sweet Apple Acres for work
>It’s the only place you can get work consistently thanks to Applejack and Fluttershy’s friendship
>You’ve been working on a project
>To make them see
>Fluttershy offers you the bits for supplies, but you turn them down
>She already does so much for you
>Besides this is your project and you need to give it your all
>Your bits, your thoughts, your design
>You’re about halfway there when you see smoke
>It’s not campfire smoke either
>It’s thick dark and heavy
>As you approach it causes you to cough
>There’s fire!
>You’re not sure where it came from but it needs to be dealt with
>You run back towards Ponyville
>You get there in good time
>You clap and snap loudly to get everyone’s attention
>You charade fire the best you can and motion for ponies to follow
>”Is he dancing?”
>”I want to dance with him!”
>Damn it
>A few ponies mimic you
>You shake your head
>You point to the clock tower and begin to jog in place
>”Does he want to play tag with somep0ny?”
>”I think he’s late for something.”
>”Or are we late…?”
>You shake your head
>You begin to dig your feet into the ground
>Roughly and people think you’re dancing again
>You shoo them away because they’ll ruin the message
>After some time you write out in the dirt in large letters
>FIRE
>”Fire?”
>”That’s just silly, nop0ny else reported a fire!”
>”I’m sure he’s playing a game now….”
>You stomp your feet and point at the message
>You motion for someone to follow you
>”Aaaaawwww everything is fine, where’s your owner?”
>You growl a little too loudly
>A few ponies start to ignore you
>Some back away from you
>You sigh
>You run off waving your arms
>You use your hands to represent fire and motioning for ponies to follow but they just laugh
>Fluttershy was at the spa today you refused to go and decided to work today
>You wish she was here, although something tells you they wouldn’t listen to her either
>The ponies think your panic is hysterical
>You just want them to shut up
>Before you run off to fix the fire situation yourself you hear a loud voice
>”Everp0ny listen up!”
>It’s Rainbow Dash hovering above everyone
>”There’s smoke some distance outside of Ponyville!”
>The townsfolk begin to murmur and gasp
>”There’s some kind of fire and if we don’t hurry a lot ponies can get hurt!”
>You were glad to see action being taken
>You’re pissed to
>You feel jealous that they listened to Rainbow Dash
>They had their reasons, but it was even worse that they treated you like a joke
>Within about a half hour everyone got together and put out the fire
>You just want to forget about it
>After working at Sweet Apple Acres you head home to work on the project
>You pull off the cover to the canvas in the middle of the cottage
>You take out the supplies and continue your painting
>You’re going to make a series of paintings showing the highlights of your world
>You knew how to draw and paint a tiny bit
>Although you were far from being considered fantastic
>Things are looking like what they’re supposed to look like
>You’re going to write a small description with every picture you paint to explain what they represent
>You hope this will make the locals reconsider their view of you, and to take your claims about being from another world more seriously
>At least on most days
>The fire incident dug at you
>You care about them accepting and believing you
>But they don’t care about you
>You’re just the freaky curiosity for them to gawk at
>You’ve lost motivation today, and you’re not sure you’ll have it tomorrow
>Fluttershy watches you paint
>”I know you’re a little upset today.”
>”But I’m still proud of you, your contribution to stopping the fire mattered.”
>You cross your arms
>”Everp0ny’s contribution matters no matter how small.”
>You sigh and sign to her, just realizing no one cares
>”I care about you, and I think your painting is wonderful.”
>You raise an eyebrow
>”It’s nice, really! Um just a little gloomy, that’s all.”
>You’re painting the moon landing
>Your recent argument with Twilight inspired it as your first choice
>It’s a bit of a challenge capturing the alien landscape
>The way the lunar lander looked like
>You have to go by memory and you’re being very careful
>You sign to her, that’s what it looks like
>She smiles
>”Oh okay. I just think it needs to brighten up.”
>She giggles
>”It’s not the only thing that um ….n-needs to brighten up.”
>Real subtle Fluttershy
>You smile and poke her on the muzzle
>She looks shocked but then giggles more
>Flutterhsy flies up to you and boops your nose
>You can’t help but laugh
>You notice there’s paint where you poked her muzzle
>You get an idea
>Take the brighter paints and flick a little at her
>She’s sensitive but hopefully she’ll know you’re playing
>You sign to her, tell her that you agree something else needed to brighten up
>She looks a little sad but then without warning she takes some paint and rubs it on your cheeks
>You flick more paint and she squeals
>She uses her hooves to get paint all over you
>It’s a good thing you covered the cottage floor in a large old sheet of fabric that Rarity donated
>Otherwise everything else would be a mess too
>Your clothes are going to be more ruined than they were, but you had 2 other pairs thanks to Rarity…again
>Thank you Rarity
>A few minutes pass and you two are a complete mess
>But you’re tickling each other and laughing
>A part of your brain is pissed that you wasted some paint, but you don’t think it was really a waste
>”Sweetie we should clean up.”
>You sign to her, you’re not a sweetie.
>”I like calling you that.”
>No point in arguing with her
>After the paint dries you both hastily make your way to the bathroom
>You sign, who goes first?
>”Why don’t we just bathe together?”
>You sigh
>You’ve explained the nudity taboo to her
>She still doesn’t get it, but you sign to her the basics
>”Oh Anon I don’t mind seeing you naked.”
>”I’m very curious to see you as your pure self.”
>She beams at you
>You reluctantly decide to do this
>You’re both different species
>Nothing bad will happen
>Fluttershy is the only pony and living thing that you trust in this world
>You have to trust her
>A minute passes and you shed your clothes
>You cover yourself but Fluttershy smiles
>”You look fine Anon, in fact I’d say you umm...you *mumblemumble*…”
>Cock your head
>”You look beautiful.”
>This causes you to blush as get into the tub
>It’s rather small and Fluttershy makes it a tight fit
>You’re pressed up close against her
>But you two manage
>You wash your face, ears, hair
>You wash your front and quickly wash your manhood
>You’re about to wash your back when you already feel scrubbing and rinsing on it
>”I’m showing you, you can trust me Anon.”
>She lathers your neck and most upper back with some effort
>”I want you to be clean, and happy.”
>Fluttershy rinses you off
>”Because I care about you.”
>She washes your butt which makes you jump, but you calm down when she just washes it
>You decide to return the favor and wash her
>”Ah!”
>You stop lathering her
>”Its fine Anon, it just startled me…”
>It was funny to you, because she wasn’t expecting it
>You rinse her off and start washing her mane
>”Mmmmm”
>”Those hands feel so nice”
>You laugh and it was sort of like washing a dog or cat
>Soon you’re both clean
>You move to get out but Fluttershy stops you
>”Um can we stay here for a bit?”
>She fumbles with her hooves nervously
>”It’s just that it’s sort of nice and our bodies so close feels- I mean! Eeep!”
>You comply and smile
>It’s probably innocent
>Fluttershy probably has never heard of sex in her cute little life
>This was actually a soothing experience so you guess you agree with her
>You stay close with her and she nuzzles into you
>You massage her ears and pet her mane
>A few minutes pass and you motion your head towards the door
>”Yes I guess it’s time to get out now.”
>She still looks like she wanted to stay, but you dry each other off
>You put on a fresh pair of clothes and go back to painting
>Fluttershy goes back to watching
>”I care about what you’re doing.”
>You sign to her, tell her she doesn’t have to say that to make you feel better.
>You know she doesn’t really care she’s just nice
>”I want to help you with your painting.”
>You cock your head
>Does she really?
>”I want to show you that I care, j-just like you want to show other ponies that you’re right.”
>You smile
>It seems genuine enough
>Through sign language you two discuss how the moon landing should be portrayed
>You went for a more realistic look, but Fluttershy suggested popping out what little colors are there
>To show the contrast
>You tried it out and it came out rather good looking
>But you were far from done
>The level of detail wasn’t satisfactory yet
>The lunar lander was going to be hard
>And you wanted to redo some parts
>You paint while you two discuss the project
>How to write and describe the events in the painting
>Where to display it
>How to remember what some things look like
>The cost
>What other paintings there should be
>It’s a nice experience and you two continue until it’s late at night
>Your first painting is done
>You can’t help but grin widely
>You’ve never felt so proud to finish something before
>It’s what you imagined in your head, exactly what you wanted to portray
>”Its wonderful Anon I can tell this was a very important event.”
>”I love it.”
>You kneel down and hug her
>She returns your embrace
>You then write a description of the painting with Fluttershy helping you keep it understandable for Equestrians
>Satisfied, the two of you clean up the cottage and head off to bed
>You lie down on the floor but Fluttershy nudges you
>”I don’t want you on the floor anymore, mister.”
>She bites onto the blanket and tugs it off
>”I want you to sleep in a nice warm bed.”
>You tug back on the blanket, but she seem adamant about this
>You sigh and get in the bed
>Fluttershy goes under the covers and rests beside you
>You drift off to sleep, happy for the first time since coming to Equestria
>A month and a half passes
>You two are working very hard on this project together
>After helping the animals you work to buy the supplies by day
>Then you paint late in the afternoon and late into the night
>Fluttershy is always giving you suggestions
>Going out and getting books about art for you to read together
>Helping you find work
>You think that if it wasn’t for her you wouldn’t have gotten this far
>But today is the day you’re going to display a dozen paintings at Town Hall
>It’s expensive so you’ll only display for about an hour or two, but you’re glad that this moment is finally happening
>With a little help from your friends you transported the paintings and their descriptions to Town Hall at the correct time
>They were covered so you could surprise them
>Everyone but Fluttershy goes outside and joins the line of ponies waiting to see your art
>You take off the covers and look around you
>Fluttershy smiles
>”They’re beautiful.”
>You sign to her, couldn’t have done it without her
>”Oh I wouldn’t say I helped that much.”
>So modest
>You pet her mane in response
>You open the Town Hall doors and motion ponies inside
>Many begin to wander and look at the paintings
>Some took longer than others and you had a variety
>You smile at your collection and ponies’ reaction to them
>There was your first and favorite, the moon landing
>A painting of ancient Rome
>A computer
>A car
>The gherkin
>A thunderstorm outside a house
>And much more
>A few ponies went to compliment your art to you
>Some went to Fluttershy and congratulated her on training you to do this
>She corrected them, and then they complimented your art to you
>In an incredibly patronizing manner
>Of course
>All your friends said they really liked what you made and that you have a talent for it
>You’re not sure if they should go so far as to say that
>But you smile at their praise anyway
>It seems so fast, but it’s already time to take the paintings back home
>Many of the ponies clear out, and your friends go outside too
>You’re not sure why, because they need to help you move all the paintings out
>You decide to follow but stop when you hear voices outside the door
>A few ponies are discussing the paintings
>”That thing has such an imagination.”
>”Yeah it’s nice but I was hoping for things about where he really came from not some fantasy world.”
>That feels like a slap in the face, but you’re hoping they’re the exception
>You still hear voices, and it sounds like Twilight and others talking to Fluttershy
>”Fluttershy we think it’s very nice of you to help Anon in this little project of his, but you’re encouraging his delusions.”
>”Oh no Twilight it’s all real.”
>”It can’t be Fluttershy, I know you feel empathy for him because he’s-“
>”Don’t say animal Twilight, he’s not.”
>”What I’m saying here is that you are helping him deny reality. It’s very clear that he has an overactive imagination.”
>Rarity chimes in
>”It’s very clear that she believes what he’s saying, but I too think he may be a little delusional.”
>Fluttershy gasps
>”He may not be able to talk, but he’s just like us!”
>Rarity sighs
>”Maybe dear, but all you talk about these days at the spa is about Anon’s fantasy world.”
>Pinkie Pie steps in
>”Oh cmon! What’s wrong with some imagination?”
>Applejack chuckles
>”When you start to believe it, Pinkie.”
>”You’re all wrong.  A-anon did come from another world. If you l-listen to all the details you can see it.”
>Rainbow Dash groans
>”Fluttershy, you don’t have to hide the fact that he may have just come from the Everfree Forest.”
>”No Rainbow Dash, when I first saw him I knew he didn’t come from that place.”
>Twilight grumbles
>”Girls it’s no use right now, it’s just a phase that Fluttershy is encouraging in Anon.”
>They walk away
>You wait to make sure they leave
>Then you shout in anger
>All of this work!
>All this time and they still think you’re lying about your world!
>That you came from some other place
>Well now its worse.
>They think you are delusional now
>You guess you shouldn’t have expected anything different
>You bitterly smirk
>You just wish you didn’t waste so much time and effort…
>On these fucking paintings!
>You walk over to the painting of the moon landing
>You pick up the frame and smash it
>You step on it and tear it to pieces
>Fluttershy notices the commotion inside and rushes in
>Fuck it, no one cares about your world
>And no one cares about what happens to you in this one
>They want you to be a monster from the Everfree
>So they don’t have to treat you right
>”Anon no!”
>You ignore her and smash the painting of The Great Wall
>Useless
>”Anon please!”
>You turn to her
>You sign to her, it’s all useless paintings from a fantasy world
>You sigh deeply
>You sign to her, her friends are probably going to have you sent to the crazy house or worse anyway
>”Don’t say that Anon!”
>Fluttershy hugs your waist preventing you from moving onto another painting
>”Listen to me mister!”
>”I care!”
>You look into her eyes, she’s dead serious
>You’ve never seen her so certain about something
>”I care about you, and nothing is going to hurt you!”
>She hugs you tighter and nuzzles you
>You sigh
>Your anger slowly disappears
>You pat her head
>”I’ll get Twilight to talk to the Princess like you want her to, okay?”
>Your eyes widen
>She will!?
>You look at her
>She nods and smile
>You pick her up and rub her belly
>She squeaks and laughs
>You give her a raspberry and set her down
>You’re just so happy!
>”Hehehe~….Come along Anon let’s pack up and go home.”
>You nod
>That night you’re waiting for Fluttershy to get home
>She said she was going to Twilight’s
>An hour passes still nothing
>It’s late so you go off to sleep
>Today was a disappointing day
>You sigh and settle down into bed
>Before you doze off you hear Fluttershy enter the bedroom
>”Anon um Twilight sent the princess a letter about you…”
>You smile but then frown
>That could mean anything
>”It w-wasn’t a bad letter.”
>She flutters over and goes under the blanket
>She then rests onto your chest
>That was strange she usually rests beside you
>Oh well. She’s really warm
>Fluttershy smiles warmly at you
>”When the Princess reads it I’m sure she’ll help you in any way she can.”
>”She’s very nice, you would like her.”
>You sure hope so
>You’re so thankful to her
>She does so much for you
>Fluttershy kisses your cheek
>”Good night, Anon.”
>You blush and blink
>”Uh sorry! It’s just that I um care about you a lot you’re a really good friend and I just wanted to um *squeak*.”
>Oh, Fluttershy
>You just smile as you drift off to sleep
>The next day you both head out to the library to check for a response
>Twilight is waiting with a smile
>Is Celestia going to send you home?
>You’re excited now
>”Good morning, Fluttershy, Anon.”
>”The princess has responded!”
>You pump your fist into the air
>You grab the scroll abruptly and begin reading it
>That can’t be right
>Celestia just assigned Fluttershy as your caretaker
>You show Twilight
>”Maybe because you need to be looked after Anon.”
>You frown
>You show Fluttershy
>She knows you’re not happy about this so she suppresses a smile
>”Oh I know it’s not the response you were hoping for sweetie.”
>”But I’ll take good care of you.”
>You can agree with that
>Still this is all very strange
>Twilight notices your confusion
>”She probably thinks you’re crazy for thinking you’re from another world.”
>You stick your tongue out at Twilight
>Fluttershy gives you an encouraging smile
>”Don’t worry Anon I’m sure she’ll respond again after some time.”
>A couple of more months have passed
>No more responses from the Princess
>Fluttershy assures you that she may not have time to respond and she’s just waiting
> Twilight assures you the opposite
>You’ve moved it to the back of your mind though
>You’ve been learning how to care for animals from Fluttershy
>You’re in Ponyville leading a family of ducks towards the cottage
>Fluttershy has been watching to make sure everything is okay
>”That’s it Anon, just like that.”
>You don’t see how hard this could be
>She tells you that you have a way with the animals
>You’re not so sure, but it’s coming from Fluttershy
>She’s really good at dealing with animals
>You’ve seen her handle bears as if they were kittens
>The ducks are following you no problem when something decides to ruin it
>”Fluttershy!”
>A rainbow streak zooms past and lands next to Fluttershy
>This scares the ducks
>They panic and run off
>You frown at Rainbow Dash
>But she’s already talking to Fluttershy
>”Fluttershy some egghead pony is at your cottage with a guard!”
>You raise a brow
>You’re starting to think contacting Celestia may have been a bad idea
>”I’m sure it’s fine Rainbow, it may be good news.”
>”I don’t know Fluttershy, I saw them there an hour ago when flying by.”
>Dash then shrugs her withers
>”Then I saw them there when I was high up in the air….an hour later”
>”Its n-nothing to worry about Rainbow Dash.”
>Fluttershy gulps
>”Nothing at all.”
>Despite Fluttershy’s optimism you two approach the cottage nervously
>Some old unicorn mare with stylish glasses and a sort of lab coat are waiting for you two at the front door
>No avoiding them if you two want to get inside the cottage
>There’s a royal guard beside her
>This old mare is looking at you in a very unnerving manner
>She then turns to Fluttershy who’s hiding behind her mane
>”Hello Miss Fluttershy I am Clear Inquirer.”
>”I am here today representing the Canterlot Endangered Species Research Center.”
>Fluttershy gasps
>”Are you going to take Anon away?”
>”We’re hoping we won’t have to. We haven’t been able to convince the Princess ever since she confirmed being contacted about this Anon here.”
>”Actually… he’s a human and his name is Anon.”
>”Ah, well Miss Fluttershy we believe that he is a rare species that needs to be studied and cared for at the research center.”
>You should have saw this coming
>”How long will he be there?”
>”Indefinitely.”
>Fluttershy gasps
>”Oh no! You can’t do that! He’s just like us and needs to live a normal life.”
>You sign to Fluttershy, can speak for yourself
>Neither one is paying attention to you though
>God damn it
>”You may have experience with many creatures Miss Fluttershy, but Anon is the only specimen we know.”
>”It should be up to Anon….Anon do y-.”
>You shake your head
>Fuck that, you’re not going to spend the rest of your life in a lab if you can help it
>They’d probably find a reason to electrocute your nipples twice a week or something too
>”It’s the law that we need to preserve his species’ presence in the world, and we can’t do that with him living here!”
>You weren’t even born here
>”I’m his caretaker! I don’t have to give him up to you!”
>Maybe Celestia was looking out for you when she made Fluttershy your caretaker
>You’re sort of glad now
>”You are not qualified! And I’m going to prove it!”
>She grits her teeth
>”You’re just using this as a way to keep him here!”
>It’s true, but Fluttershy really has been looking after you
>Though you hope to be independent one day so you can stop mooching off of her
>”I-I am qualified…I look after many creatures, but Anon is like a pony even if it doesn’t seem that way at f-first.”
>Clear Inquirer shakes her head
>”He is different!  It’s not like taking care of other animals you need to study him too.”
>She gets a smile
>”So we’re going to test you.”
>You shrug
>Fluttershy looks scared
>”We convinced Princess Celestia, the one who assigned you to oversee and pass judgment.”
>Shit
>Now you’re worried
>But a part of you is glad
>You can get a chance to ask Celestia about going home
>That is if you’re not already on your way to a lab after this is over
>You shudder
>”The test will begin at dawn tomorrow inside Town Hall.”
>”Don’t be late.”
>Clear walks away smugly with her guard following closely behind her
>Fluttershy looks about ready to cry
>It was bad enough you were stuck here, but studied like an animal for the rest of your life?
>You couldn’t handle that
>”Oh no….”
>She moves closer to you
>”I can’t let anyp0ny take you away, you’re one of my best friends and I’ll miss you.”
>You sign to her, not much she can do
>”There has to be something….”
>You give her a concerned look
>” I promised you that I care about you and I don’t want anything to hurt you.”
>”I can’t fulfill it if this happens…”
>You sign to her, you have faith in her
>”Th-thank you Anon.”
>You both spend the rest of the day preparing for tomorrow
>At dawn you’re both rushing to Town Hall
>You’re carrying a notepad and pencil
>Fluttershy has saddlebags full of medical stuff in case they want her to use it
>When you enter Town Hall you see a large crowd surround the sides of the interior
>They’re locals but you guess they’re here to see the princess and this event
>There is a large amount space in the middle with a platform for you to stand on
>Up on the middle balcony is Celestia herself
>Your potential way home
>She really does look powerful
>To the left balcony is Clear Inquirer
>Since no one would really understand you give her the middle finger
>”Anon!”
>Fluttershy frowns at you
>Oh…right
>You step onto the platform and Fluttershy stands beside you
>You’re both shaking nervously
>You want to run out of here, and Fluttershy is thinking the same thing
>Clear speaks up
>”We would like a presentation on this specimen and what you’ve learned from him so far. You may begin.”
>A moment passes
>you and Fluttershy blink a few times
>You write to Fluttershy: “I can take care of this.”
>You begin writing down general information about yourself when Clear Inquirer interrupts
>”Well?”
>Fluttershy looks around and barely says above a whisper
>”Um Anon is writing right now.”
>”As a caretaker you must answer these questions.”
>”Take those away.”
>You look to Fluttershy
>She shakes her head
>”I c-can’t do that. He wants to speak for himself and he’s capable of that…”
>Clear smugly smiles
>”You see your highness, she can’t even control him!”
>Ponies are beginning to murmur
>You give Fluttershy the notepad and pencil
>”Are you sure Anon?”
>You nod
>Fluttershy puts them in her saddle bags and gives you an apologetic look
>Flutershy clears her throat but Clear Inquirer speaks up again
>”You seem to have forgotten something.”
>Fluttershy seems to understand, but you’re confused
>”His clothes they need to come off so we can observe his anatomy.”
>Your heart begins to beat fast and you blush in embarrassment at the thought of being naked here
>Fluttershy turns to you
>”Anon, sweetie I know you don’t want to do this.”
>”I’m not sure why you don’t want to, and I know this is a serious thing for you.”
>She nuzzles your side and looks up at you with sad eyes
>”I don’t want you to be uncomfortable, but we might have to.”
>You sign, not with everyone watching and looking
>You look around many ponies are wondering what the holdup is
>”Please Anon…”
>You shake your head
>”Okay mister, that’s fine.”
>She smiles at you
>You were expecting her to look sad or nervous, but now she looks determined
>”Miss Fluttershy what is taking so long?”
>”He doesn’t want to be naked, and I won’t force him to.”
>Clear puts a hoof to her face
>”This is ridiculous just take it off of him.”
>”Um no.”
>”You see! She is not qualified!”
> Fluttershy raises her head
>She looks into Clear’s eyes for the first time
>”No, It’s because Anon’s somep0ny I care about and it’s his decision!”
>”I learned that he doesn’t want to be seen without his clothes.”
>”He likes to eat fish, but also enjoys sweets like everyp0ny else.”
>”That he lives life a lot like we all do.”
>”Anon is complex like ponies, he feels and thinks like one.”
>”He doesn’t want to be in a lab, and we shouldn’t force him.”
>”I learned that he’s my best friend, and I love him.”
>Fluttershy hugs you and holds your waist close to her
>The crowd cheers and finds it adorable
>She loves you?
>Aaaawww she sees you as family
>It warms your heart
>You can’t help but scratch behind her ears
>Her defending you like this was the most genuine and kind thing done for you in recent memory
>Fluttershy looks nervous now
>You guess her courage sort of simmered down
>”Umm please your highness doesn’t take him away from me…”
>You look at Celestia she’s smiling
>Clear groans
>”Anon may be smarter than the average creature, but I doubt he’s anywhere near the level of a pony.”
>You glare at her
>Twilight Sparkle steps out from the crowd and stands beside you
>”That’s not true.  Anon can be a bit strange and volatile, but he can comprehend everything we say.”
>”If given a way to write he can respond as well.”
>Pinkie moves out of the crowd and stands next to Twilight
>”Ooh! Don’t forget those paintings! Anon’s got a pretty wild imagination too!”
>Thanks Pinkie…
>Applejack and Rainbow Dash make their way over to you
>Applejack smiles nervously
>”Well I don’t know how smart Anon is really…um no offense Anon.”
>You try to look indifferent
>”But he always wanted to work on the farm for bits, critters don’t need bits.”
>Rainbow Dash nods
>”I’m a bit guilty, because I don’t know if Anon here is all up there either, but…”
>”He did apparently try to warn everyp0ny about a fire and that makes him smart enough in my book.”
>Rarity approaches
>”No dumb beast would care so much about their clothes.”
>She then looks rather embarrassed
>”And Fluttershy’s descriptions of this hypothetical world of his, it seems possible.”
>Clear slams a hoof on the balcony floor
>”Are we really going to discuss the possibility of another world!?”
>”I am sure it is an excuse to keep him away from our research center!”
>”That letter that Princess Celestia forwarded to us seemed fabricated.”
>”There is no other world!”
>The princess laughs a little
>”Well we can always find out.”
>Everyone turns their heads to Celestia
>”Your highness wouldn’t it be best to pass judgment first?”
>”I think Fluttershy is doing a wonderful job studying her friendship between herself and Mr.Anon.”
>Mr.Anon, huh?
>You like that
>”I’d say she’s a great caretaker.”
>Clear is fuming at this point, but stills her tongue
>Celestia hovers down to your group
>”When I first read about you, I was not sure I believed all of it.”
>”However, I can see intelligence in those eyes.”
>”I can only prove that you came from another world in one way.”
>”It is a memory spell. It is not pleasant and I will know things you may want to keep hidden.”
>You look to Fluttershy and she’s still smiling and beaming at you
>”It’s your choice sweetie.”
>You smile
>You nod at Celestia
>”Alright Mr.Anon this will be over before you know it.”
>Her horn touches your forehead
>Your eyes widen
>You feel your life pass by in less than a second
>All the raw emotions as if they just happened all at once in a moment
>It’s uncomfortable and you feel no memory unturned
>Then it’s over
>Everyone looks at Celestia
>Your friends
>The crowd
>Clear
>And you
>”Anon is not from this world. He comes from the planet Earth which is inhabited by humans like him.”
>”It is a very different world from our own.”
>”He is intelligent just like us, and as a full sapient will be allowed to make the choice of going to the research center on his own.”
>Clear storms out of the balcony
>Good riddance
>A lot of ponies gasp at the news
>Your friends are staring at you wide eyed with a million questions ready for you
>You sign to Fluttershy, can the princess send you home?
>”Um Princess? Anon wants to know if he can go back to his world.”
>Celestia gives you a sad look
>Oh no
>”I’m sorry Anon, but no I cannot. Your existence here at all is an anomaly.”
>You’re not going back
>You bite your lip to stop it from quivering
>So this is it
>You begin to tear up
>Your friends turn their heads downward they feel sorry for you
>Fluttershy strokes your leg
>”Sweetie, listen to me. Not matter what happens I love you.”
>You sign to her, she’s your family and all but….
>You don’t finish
>Fluttershy looks shocked but then smiles nervously
>”Oh um yes family! Right…yeah.”
>Celestia looks thoughtful for a moment
>”I may not be able to send you back to your world, but I can give you a home.”
>Huh?
>”Here in Equestria.”
>Do you really have much of a choice?
>But you look to your friends
>You smile this place isn’t so bad
>You could probably save up for a nice house so you can stop mooching off Fluttershy
>You nod
>Celestia smiles
>A paper appears and she decrees you a citizen of Equestria
>She’s about to fly off and leave but then she remembers
>”You are still technically an endangered species do you still want Fluttershy to be your caretaker?”
>You don’t need a caretaker, and that means she’ll be in charge of you
>But she’s done so much for you she deserves that title
>Fluttershy’s given you so much
>You nod again
>Celestia smiles and disappears in a flash
>You bear hug your friends
>They all jump at the surprise but embrace you back
>You’re feeling relief and joy
>A little sad that you’ll never go back to Earth
>But at least you’re home now
>You release your hug and then kneel to Fluttershy’s eye level
>You look at your savior, family, and best friend
>You sign to her, thank her so much for everything
>She tears up and looks at you with those teal eyes
>She pecks your cheek and you peck her cheek
>”I love you, I care about you, and nothing is going to hurt you.”

>PRESENT DAY
>You write: “I believed those words with all my heart. That was a moment in time that won’t exist again.”
>You write: “That’s when I learned to trust her. She did all those things for me, and she was such an angel.”
>Twilight nods
>”I remember that day Anon you two looked so happy, and I was so sorry for not believing you about your world.”
>You sigh
>You write: “But recently she betrayed everything we went through. She took my choice away as if I didn’t know what I was deciding. It hurt to see her act that way as if nothing before mattered.”
>Twilight looks worried
>”What did she do Anon?”
>You write: “She raped me.”
>You give her a serious look
>Twilight stutters
>”D-did she really do that to you?!”
>”Is that why you smell like-“
>You nod
>”I’m so sorry Anon.”
>She tears up
>”I can’t believe she did that...”
>You write: “Me too.”
>You wince
>You write: “The worst part is that when Fluttershy did it to me she said the same words she said on that day. The special day when we became family and Equestria became my home.”
>You write: “I love you, I care about you, and nothing is going to hurt you.”
>Twilight is pondering something and she looks horrified
>”Did she rape you before this? Is that why Celestia wiped your memories?”
>She suddenly shuts her mouth
>But it’s too late
>If Twilight knows then it happened
>If it happened she raped you before
>The dreams are right
>They always were…..
>Twilight looks at you with concern
>She nudges you
>”Anon are you alright?!”
>You felt them for a moment
>Your memories almost came back
>Sigh
>You write: “So she really did wipe my memories?”
>She gasps
>”Yes she did Anon, but only to stop Discord!”
>Discord?
>Is that what’s been talking to you in the dreams?
>”We need to tell the princess that you know!”
>No!
>You write: “She’s just going to wipe me again!”
>”She might not! She needs to know Anon especially now that Fluttershy abused you!”
>You write: “It’s the princess’ fault it happened.”
>You glare
>”Anon what do you want then?”
>She has you there
>That thing…no Discord
>He offered justice you assume
>Or help at least
>But he’s definitely not on your side
>You write: “I just wish none of this happened and that we could all be in peace.”
>You facepalm
>That’s not possible
>You write: “Go ahead. Just tell the princess.”
>Fuck you’re going to regret this
>”Okay Anon, I’ll do that and then we need to confront Fluttershy.”
>You don’t want to face “her” again
>No, not so soon
>Not after what she did
>Twilight notices you distress
>”We’ll do it together.”
>She offers you a smile
>You feel a little safer
>Just a little…
>You feel a pressure within your throat
>You open your mouth
Okay
