- >”It’s alright Little Dude. The water’s just fine.”
- >Tree Hugger spins in the lake water to show you.
- “I don’t know, Ms. Hugger. I didn’t bring any swim wear.”
- >The pony grabs on to a floating log and looks at you.
- >She blinks slowly, one eye closes before the other.
- >”None of us wear any clothes. It’s like, so freeing, you know?”
- >You watch as she dips into the water and spins so her hind legs barely peek out.
- >After a moment she returns to bobbing at the surface.
- >You look down.
- >For some reason you’ve always worn clothes.
- >It’s for a reason right?
- >Even Ms. Fluttershy never made you undress.
- >She said all ponies are different, and wearing clothes is alright.
- >But she only wears things on special occasions.
- >Tree Hugger lazily floats on her back and kicks so she floats toward you.
- >”It’s cool, Anon. You don’t have to like, do stuffs that’s makes you feel bad.”
- >Some water gets in her eyes and she brushes it away.
- >A big drop clings to an eyebrow and she has to shake it off.
- >”But you wouldn’t want to get your clothes all wet, right?”
- >You have another set of clothes, but then you’d have to walk back to camp soaking wet.
- “It does look like fun.”
- >She smiles at this.
- >”Yeah man. Your auras been all out of wack. Trust me, this will put you back in balance.”
- >Tree Hugger leans on the dock.
- “Maybe you’re right.”
- >You grab your shirt and slowly pull it over your head.
- >Ms. Fluttershy wouldn’t like it if you ruined your clothes.
- >Tree Hugger watches a little too closely as you unbutton your pants.
- “A little privacy please?”
- >She closes her eyes.
- >”I’ll just go into my special place while you change.”
- >She starts making those weird hippy noises.
- >You kick off your pants and quickly dip into the water.
- “Alright, I’m in.”
- >She pulls up next to you.
- >”That wasn’t so hard, was it Little Dude?”’
- 1/2
- >You turn toward her.
- “I guess not.”
- >She offers you lazy smile.
- >”Radical. Now just close your eyes and say your mantra.”
- >She taught everyone that mantra’s help you center yourself.”
- >Most of the ponies had something interesting.
- >All you could think about was food from home.
- >And that’s how you came up with your mantra.
- >You take a deep breath.
- “Haaaaaaaammmmmmmm.”
- >”Groovy.”
- “Haaaaaaaammmmmmmm.”
- >She starts making her hippy noises again.
- >”Eeeeeeeeeeeee.”
- >Her hooves rub your shoulders.
- >You feel your troubles flow into the lake water.
- >”You’re so tense, Little Dude.”
- >One by one your muscles relax under her soothing touch.
- >All of a sudden your eyes feel heavy.
- >You needed this.
- >Tree Kickers hooves go lower and you have to hold on to the dock so she won’t push you.
- >”See? I knew you’d like this.”
- >You just nod.
- >A hoof strays from you lower back and touches your underwear.
- >You instinctively move away.
- >”What’s wrong, Little Guy?”
- “I… I don’t know…”
- >She pulls herself closer so she’s leaning against your back.
- >Her face presses against yours as she hugs you.
- >Her mane tickles your neck.
- >You turn to look at her.
- >She raises a single eyebrow.
- >”You trust me, right?”
- >You feel your heart beating.
- >She nuzzles into you again.
- “I…”
- >In the distance you hear some music.
- “They started without us.”
- >”Aw man…”
- >You grab the dock and pull yourself up.
- >You don’t want to miss the campfire songs.
- “You coming?” you ask as you put on your shirt.
- >Tree Hugger frowns.
- >”Not yet.”
- >And then she dips into the water again.

- >Day Summer Camp 2 in Equestria
- >Ms. Heartstrings plays her lyre and you and the others sing along.
- >You sing all the hits.
- >After an hour or so Rumble is wobbling beside you.
- >He tries to fight to keep his eyes open, but it’s a losing battle.
- >A few other ponies have the same idea and yawns spread among them.
- >Ms. Hugger approaches with her guitar.
- >”Hey guys, did I miss anything?”
- >Ms. Heartstrings puts her lyre aside.
- >”We just finished singing, but I think it’s time for bed.”
- >A couple fillies protest, but their sleepy eyes betray them.
- >”Yeah, you’re probably right.”
- “But I’m not tired, Ms. Heartstrings.”
- >She just smiles at this.
- >Tree Hugger sits beside you.
- >”We’ve got so many cool activities tomorrow. You don’t want to be tired for that do you, Little Dude?”
- >Lyra gets up and the others follow her lead.
- “Please, I just want to stay up a little longer.”
- >”I don’t know. What do you think Lyra?”
- >The mint pony looks around.
- >”It’s up to you, but I’m bushed.”
- >Tree Hugger puts her guitar into an open case.
- >”Tomorrow’s going to be awesome. I bet I’ll be great at canoeing,” Scootaloo says to her friends.
- >”Maybe we’ll get our cutie marks doing that,” her friend responds.
- >You don’t remember her name.
- >Apple something.
- >Tree Hugger stretches out a bit.
- >”I’ll stay for a little bit. We can talk about stuff.”
- >Lyra yawns before answering.
- >”Alright. Try not to make any noise when you go to your bunks.”
- >Tree Hugger nods.
- >”We’ll be like, you know, with the universe.”
- >”Com’n Rumble. It’s time to sleep.”
- >Lyra guides the colt to his cabin.
- >”So how’re you doing, Little Dude?”
- >You look up at your camp counselor.
- “Pretty good.”
- >”Righteous. I was worried about you earlier. You were all uptight.”
- >You look away and shrug.
- >She puts her foreleg over your shoulder.
- 1/3
- >”You can talk to me about whatever, you know?”
- >Your foot nudges a rock that looks out of place.
- “Nothing’s wrong.”
- >You look up at her.
- >”It can be hard to open up sometimes. I know I had that problem growing up.”
- “So what happened?”
- >”I just realized, that I had to be myself, you know?”
- >You both sit in silence for a while.
- “I don’t think the other ponies like me.”
- >Tree Hugger makes a confused look.
- >”What do you mean?”
- >You put the rock back where it was.
- “Rumble is the only one that hangs out with me.”
- >She thinks about this for a bit.
- >”Maybe he is the only colt you hang out with…”
- “What?”
- >This makes her smile and she pulls you closer.
- >”It’s like this, Little Dude. You can’t expect other ponies to do all the work.”
- >After a moment she adds, “You came here to make friends right?”
- >You don’t know where she’s going with this, but you agree to be polite.
- ”Yeah.”
- >”You don’t get friends, you make them. Do you understand?”
- >Your brow furrows as you think.
- >”Tomorrow, instead of spending time with Rumble, why don’t you join Scootaloo’s canoe?”
- >You sway a few times.
- >Fluttershy said the same thing.
- >That’s why she sent you here instead of letting you stay home.
- >You have to open up more.
- ”What if she doesn’t want to hang out?”
- >This makes your counselor laugh.
- >”You’ll be fine, trust me.”
- >You put an arm around her.
- “Maybe you’re right.
- >Tree Hugger takes a deep breath.
- >”Do you feel that?”
- “Feel what?”
- >”Your aura’s getting better. You’ve just been too uptight.”
- >You close your eyes and try to find your center.
- >It’s easy to find this time.
- >You lean against Ms. Hugger.
- >She places a hoof over your hand.
- >You feel so comfortable with her.
- >She nuzzles against your neck.
- >Her breath is so warm.
- 2/3
- >Without realizing it you turn your head to meet her.
- >She nods twice before turning slowly so your nose is touching hers.
- >Her half lidded eyes gaze into yours.
- >That feeling is back.
- >You can feel your heart racing.
- >Is this normal?
- >Tree Hugger looks at your lips, and offers a weak smile.
- >Does she like you?
- >Not like, normal like, but like like.
- >No, that’s not possible.
- >She’s way old.
- >Besides, Ms. Fluttershy said you should spend time with fillies your own age.
- >She said that if you ever feel strange you should find someone you trust.
- >But Tree Hugger is your counselor.
- >And she’s so soft.
- >What are you supposed to do?
- >You hear glass breaking.
- >”It got loose!”
- >A few more things crash in a nearby cabin before a chicken pops out.
- >”I told you not to keep it!” Sweetie yells as she chases the animal.
- >”I thought it was cool,” Scootaloo responds as they try to corner it.
- >Tree Hugger pulls away.
- >”Aw man…”
- 3/3
