- Dear Anon,
- How have you been, squirt? I gotta say, we were all pretty surprised with what happened here. Three years after you leave, we see another human; we all always figured that if we ever saw another one again, it’d be you for sure. Three for three. But I guess not this time, huh? Although the first moment I saw the little thing wandering the square, I had a hunch who it was…
- You’ve got a cute kid, Anon.
- Don’t worry, we took great care of her. We made sure her stay was a comfortable one. She loved it here. Far more than you ever did, I think! We told her all about you when you were here, both as a kid and as a grown-up. She loved hearing about you.
- As for us, we’re all doing well. Fluttershy is back to her old self. Although, you know, I still don’t completely believe what you said in her cottage the night of the party. But I’ll let it slide. I’ve started up a basketball league, too. Other p0nies love the sport. Of course, we all acknowledge you as the founder. You’re a bit of an athletic legend around here now.
- I just thought I could use this as an opportunity to say hi again. We all miss you here, buddy. The girls miss you.
- I miss you.
- But I know life is good where you are now, especially with little Suzie here. I don’t want to hold up her return trip, so I’ll end it now.
- Take care, Anon. Maybe we’ll see each other again someday.
- Love,
- Rainbow Dash
- >You place your hand over your mouth
- >Tears begin to stream down your face
- >Your smile is so big it begins to hurt
- >You sniffle loudly, folding the letter and holding it close to you
- >”Are you okay, Daddy?” Suzie asks
- >You wipe your eyes
- Yeah, Daddy’s good. More than good, Daddy’s great.
- >You smile at her
- >”OH! I forgot! I need to give you this too! It’s from Fluttershy!”
- >She pulls out another envelope
- >From Fluttershy?
- >You open it up
- >It’s a photo, of Fluttershy
- >Or a part of her
- >It’s her rear end, with her tail parted, giving a perfect view of her glistening—
- >You tear up the photo, laughing heartily as you do
- >Fucking Fluttershy…
- >You look over to your smiley daughter
- …tell ya what!
- >You say, picking her up and placing her on your lap
- Forget bedtime, you can tell me ALL about Equestria right now. I’d love to hear it.
- >She beams so happily
- >”Okay Daddy!”
- End of Then and Now
