Heartless 2: Commencement

>Back to Day:  'IT'S HAPPENING' in Equestria....

>You know this is fundamentally your fault
>If you hadn't gotten drunk and kissed her, you wouldn't be in this mess
>You rationalize that even if you hadn't kissed her, she still would have started in eventually
>That kiss was just an early catalyst
>better to deal with this now than later
>you guess
>You didn't want to deal with it at all
>Not that it matters anymore
>You're taking care of it
>Right now, in fact
>Sunshine hits your face as you open the door to another beautiful day
>You whistle absentmindedly as you twirl a large pair of scissors between your fingers
Well
>you say to no one in particular
Better get started



*Day after the drunken make-out fest in Equestria, 8 months ago*

>You still feel bad about yesterday
>You had no idea that Fluttershy felt that way about you
>If you had, things would have been different
>But, it's time to move forward
>You get up, shower, shave, etc
>cereal seems okay for breakfast today
>you pour yourself a bowl and start toward the refrigerator for some milk when you hear a knock at the door
>That's weird, it's, like, 830 in the morning
>Must be important
>You open the door to find...
Fluttershy?
>She's dressed in a leather bodysuit, with a whip in her mouth
Uh, what's going on?
>'mmss mmnnrrtshn yrr...'
Spit out the whip, Fluttershy
>She blushes, then drops it
>'I-Is domination your fetish, Anon?'
>wat
Wat
>You are honestly confused as fuck
>This has something to do with yesterday, you know it
>There's no other explaination for why Fluttershy would be acting so strangely
What are you doing, Fluttershy?
>'Oh!  Uhm...  Well, since you said you didn't like me like I was, I thought that there could be something I could do for you to make you like me'
*Silence*
>'You know, sexually'
I gathered
>She half-hides behind her hair and blushes



This really isn't the way to go about this, you know.
I told you to give it time
>She eeps
>'B-but if I can figure out a way to make you like me, I won't have to wait as long!'
>'I can't stand to be apart from you, Anon!'
>'I've never felt love like that before!  I can't go back to being alone!'
>She goes wide-eyed
>Judging from the amount of spaghetti leaking out of the bodysuit, you'd guess she didn't mean to say that last part
Uh...
>You're starting to get really uncomfortable
>It seems she really meant it
>She has declared you to be the center in which her life revolves around
>And you really don't want to have to break her heart again today
>Thankfully, she says something before you can
>With her eyes firmly locked onto the ground at your feet, she announces:
>'Anon'
>'I love you, and want to be with you.  I'm going to do everything possible to make you love me.'
>She seems to be reciting something she rehearsed earlier today
>'If that means I have to come back every day with a different fetish to find something you like, I'll do it!'
Fluttershy that's really not-
>'NO!  It is!  I can understand why you wouldn't like me, but I KNOW I can become something that you can love!'
>'There has to be SOMETHING that will make me attractive to you!'
>'And I won't stop until I find it!'
>With that, she picks up the whip and streaks off toward her cottage, leaving a trail of tears and pasta in her wake
>You sigh, and close the door
>God damn it
>This isn't over



>Eight months
>EIGHT FUCKING MONTHS
>She's showed up at your door, at exactly 830 am, every day, for eight months
>With a different fetish every day
>It started pretty tame, but as time went on things just got creepier
>You were hard pressed to imagine how some of those scenarios were even kind of related to sex
>How is a zombie apocalypse sexy?
>How about the end of time?
>You've stopped asking questions
>You have, however, asked her to stop
>Well, 'asked' is kind of an understatement
>You've asked, told, commanded, begged, pleaded, threatened, cajoled, and, on one particular instance involving a trip to the land of Dr. Seuss, rhymed for her to stop
>All in vain
>And you've gotten desperate
>This mare is unlike anything you've ever seen before
>You rejected her once, and she's obsessed over it to the point where you're actually scared
>The rest of your friends have talked to her about it as well, only to get the same response each time
>'No, you're wrong.  He loves me.  He just needs to realize it.'
>Curiously enough, Rainbow Dash seems to have turned a blind eye to the whole situation
>You can see that she feels for you, but she never defends you
>You chalk it up to being the Element of Loyalty; after all, both you AND Flutterbutt are good friends of hers
>Making no action seems to be the most prudent move for her, and you don't blame her
>You wouldn't want to get involved in this, either
>But the fact is you are
>But not for long
>You check your watch
>7 am
>Perfect
>You adjust the 'package' in your arms, take a deep breath, and knock on the door
>Seconds later, the door opens





>Fluttershy stands before you
>Just Fluttershy;  Thank God you got to her house before she started in with the fetishes
>'A-ANON!  What are you doing here?!'
>She's surprised, but thrilled that you would come to visit her so early in the morning
>And with flowers, no less
>You hand her a large vase full of her favorite spring flowers, freshly cut with a ribbon around them
>'Oh Anon, they're beautiful!  Thank you!'
>As she sets them on the table behind her, you say
Fluttershy, there's something I've been meaning to talk to you about
But, it's kind of a sensitive subject
>Her ears perk up, and she turns around slowly
I was thinking maybe we could talk about it over dinner?
Like, 630 tonight, at Sugarcube Corner?
>She's frozen
>After what seems like an hour, she finally manages to squeak out:
>'D-do you mean, like, a....'
>Her voice is barely above a whisper now
>'a.... d... date?'



>You blush and look at your feet, putting your hands deep into your pockets
Well, I suppose you could call it....
>She's already on you, giving you the biggest hug you've ever received
>'ohmygoshyesyesyesyesyes....'
>She's flapping about the house excitedly, and you're just kind of standing awkwardly in the doorway
Fluttershy?
>She stops fluttering about long enough for you to say
I have some... stuff... I have to take care of today, so I have to get going.
I'll see you at 630, okay?
>You smile
>'I....'
>She's still in shock from the joy she's going through
>'I'll be there'
Good
>You scratch her behind the ear as you leave
>She's in bliss, and it's evident
>You take your leave, off to the library
>That seemed to go well, but the hard part will be later tonight



*620 pm, at sugarcube Corner*
>You just sat down at one of the various booths
>Mrs. Cake brings you a glass of water, and asks you if you'll be having company with dinner tonight
>That's a long story, but the short answer is 'yes'
>As you sip your water, you notice a yellow shape walk through the front door
>It's Fluttershy
>And she looks absolutely stunning
>Sugarcube Corner isn't fancy enough event to warrant wearing clothes, but she's done her hair and makeup beautifly
>As she approaches you, you stand up for a hug
>She hugs you tightly, apparantly savoring the bodily contact
I'm glad you came, Fluttershy
>'You have no idea how happy I am to be here, Anon'
>You smile
Well, now that you're here, all that leaves is... oh!  There she is.
>You wave behind Fluttershy at the unicorn that just walked in
>Twilight sees you, and walks right over
>You bend over and kiss her, deep on the lips, ruffling your fingers through her mane
>Fluttershy's speechless
>Well, not exactly;  she seems to be stuttering a lot
>She's in shock
>You can't blame her, though
>I mean, that WAS the point



>You've always noticed Twilight looking at you
>At first it was simple curiosity, due to you being the only human in this plane of magic candy horses
>But, as she grew to know you, you noticed strangely sexual undertones in your conversations
>When you finally asked her about it she seemed embarrassed, but admitted that the thought of having sex with an animal really turned her on
>Holy irony, Batman
>Neither of you brought it up much anymore, other than subtly teasing each other when no one was looking
>You were friends, and you both thought each other were cute, but it seemed neither of you was really interested in a relationship right now
>And this was just fine
>You had bigger things to worry about
>So, when you came to Twilight this morning with your proposition, she seemed kind of shocked
>I mean, this kind of deception is, well....
>Heartless
>You explained to her that the only way Fluttershy was going to stop this harassment and move on was if she didn't want to be with you anymore
>And unless she can think of a better way, this is the only one you have
>She reluctantly agrees, but you can see that she's kind of excited
>Apparantly she's read too many novels about naughty librarian temptresses, and wants to be one for a change
>This is totally okay with you
>Twilight's really cute, and the night will at the very least end with Fluttershy not bothering you anymore
>speaking of Fluttershy.....



>Back in the restaurant, Flutters appears to be having some sort of mild seizure
>The look of bliss on Twilight's face as you scratch her behind the ears is reflecting in stark contrast to the look of horror of Fluttershy's
Fluttershy, this is what I needed to talk to you about
I only just realized it the other day, but I love Twilight
And apparantly she feels the same way
We've been dating for the past few days
>'You... you've been... but... this morning... the flowers....'
I'm sorry, I just saw them and thought of you.  I thought you'd like them.
>The only thing keeping her from causing a scene is the fact that you're in public and she's shy
>Justasplanned.jpg
>'Th.. then why did you have me meet you here?'
Well, we wanted to tell you in person
>At this point, she's gone from seizing to vibrating
>You're worried that she's going to shake herself apart
>She's fighting from showing how hurt she is, but failing terribly
>There's a pang in your heart as you deliver the final line
Because you're such a good friend to us




>That did it
>She's stopped shivering, and is now perfectly still
>Her pupils have dialated to almost comic proportions
>And her voice is completely level
>'Oh.  I see.  That was my mistake.'
>Something seems really off about her
>But, that was kind of the point
>Still, you can't help but feel for her
>You're all silent for a minute
>Finally Fluttershy speaks
>'I'm going to go.  I'm sorry I overreacted.  I thought you were going to ask me to be your special somep0ny or something silly like that, but I can see how I was mistaken'
>That monotone voice is really creepy
>As she walks away, you think you hear her mumble
>'It's my fault really.  Why would he be different?  God, you're stupid. No wonder everyp0ny avoids you........'
Fluttershy?
>She stops
Are you okay?
>Without turning around, she says
>'Yes.  Also, thank you for pointing out my misconception, I'm glad it was brought up before I did anything stupid'
>Uhh...
No problem?
>She continutes out the door



>Twilight finally speaks up
>'I didn't like that at all.  All that did is make me feel dirty.'
>You raise a finger and open your mouth to say something
>'And not in the sexy way, either'
>Nevermind then
>You lower your finger and close your mouth
>'I need to go home and shower.  I'll see you around.'
>She turns to leave
Twilight
>She turns to look at you, sympathy reflecting back
Thank you for helping.  I couldn't have done it without you.
>Twilight simply nods, then walks out the door.
>That's it
>The deed is done.




>The next morning, you wait by the door
>830 comes and goes, and Fluttershy is nowhere to be found
>It seems to have worked
>The rest of the day is uneventful

>As is the next day

>On the third day, as you are tending your plants, you're blindsided by a blue flash
>Rainbow Dash is pinning you to the ground, and she looks PISSED
>'OH HEY ANON.  CARE TO TELL ME WHAT THE *FUCK* YOU DID TO FLUTTERSHY?!?'
I broke her heart
>you say, matter of fact-ly
>after three days of justifying it to yourself, you've accepted it
>'Oh, yeah you did.  You have no fucking idea.....'
>Rainbow seems shaken up, something's on her mind
Rainbow, it was the only way to get her to stop harassing me
>This only makes her angrier
>'No!  There had to have been.... You didn't have to...  AARGH!'
>She flies up and punts a cloud clear to Cloudsdale
>Getting right in your face, she says, very calmly:
>'Look, Anon, I don't know how they do things where you're from, but that was really unacceptable'
I know.
>'No, you don't know.  You don't know Fluttershy, otherwise you never would have done that.'
>'I need you to meet me at the library.  I think it'd be best if both you and Twilight heard this.'
O..Okay.  Give me a minute, and I'll be right there.

>At the library, TWilight looks worried
>Rainbow probably verbally kicked her ass, too
>Speaking of, Rainbow is pacing rapidly, her wings twitching on occasion
>She's rustled, there's no other way to describe it
>Twilight finally asks
>'Rainbow, what's this all about?  What's wrong with Fluttershy?'
>Rainbow puts a hoof to her forehead and says:
>'Where do I begin?  Well, I suppose I should start back when we were in filly school.....'
