- >Buuuuuuuck.
- >Your neck is killing you.
- >Why are you in a tub?
- >Oh, yeah.
- >Drinking with Celestia.
- >You stand up and walk down the stairs to your kitchen.
- >Your head feels like it’s been through a jet turbine… Twice.
- >You need something to clear your head.
- >A shower, a good breakfast and a long walk usually work.
- >You made sure to bring some of Spike’s great cereal with you when you moved.
- >Not even sure if he noticed it is gone.
- >You munch down your delicious breakfast and exit your house.
- >You are still wearing the clothes you woke up in.
- >Fucks.exe has stopped working.
- >Do you want to continue anyway?
- > [Y], N
- >You lock the door after you and walk out of your lawn and walk down the street.
- >There’s a large pool of something purplish crimson further down the road.
- >As you approach it your nose catches the smell of expensive Spanish wine.
- >You assume its Celestia’s vomit and continue on your marry way.
- >You pass by Sugarcube Corner and buy a loaf of bread and a couple of pieces of pastry.
- >That’ll be today’s lunch.
- >You go through the market on your way back home.
- >Applejack has got a pretty large line today.
- >Wonder why.
- >You ask Lyra who is standing in line what is so special about today’s wares.
- >Lyra: “Are you kidding me? Everyp0ny knows that today is the beginning of the cider season.”
- “Cider season?”
- >You’re not sure if you can handle more alcohol right now.
- >…
- >Maybe just a little bit.
- >AJ: “Howdy Anon, are ya here to get some cider?”
- “I don’t have any money. I was just talking to Lyra.”
- >Lyra: “Anonymous is really interesting.”
- >She keeps staring at your hands.
- >It’s getting weird now.
- >Nah, you are different p0nies are allowed to stare.
- >AJ: “Would ya like a taste?” She already poured a full mug for you.
- >A single drink can’t hurt.
- “Thanks.” You say as you grab the handle of the mug.
- >...
- >You can barely taste the alcohol in this.
- >Well it has to be child friendly if the Apples are going to sell it to colts and fillies.
- >But still.
- >You are kind of disappointed.
- >Besides the lack of alcohol the cider tastes pretty fucking good.
- “This is great Applejack. But do you have something a little…” You hesitate for a moment. “Stronger?”
- >Applejack’s mouth contorts into a grin and she puts her orange marshmallow hoof under the counter and pulls up a large bottle of…
- >Applejack Daniels.
- >Of course.
- >AJ: Here ya go, Anon.”
- “Well, as I said; I don’t have any money but I’ll buy some of that,” you point at the bottle. “When I get my first salary.”
- >Applejack beams at you now. “Ya’ll got a job? That’s mighty fine Anon. Here. Take this.” Applejack hands… wait… Applejack hooves you the bottle. “It’s mah way of sayin’ congratulations.”
- >This mare…
- “Thanks Applejack, this is really something.”
- >It isn’t really anything at all, but it’s the symbolic value more than the actual present.
- >Lyra: “Ahem!.. Some of us are waiting to actually buy something.”
- “Oh, right.”
- >You give Lyra a sheepish smile, thank Applejack again and head on home.
- >You take a look at your living room.
- >You can’t believe it.
- >This place is a mess.
- >It’s like Hiroshima all over again.
- >Fucking Celestia.
- >Oh well you better clean this mess up before Rainbow Dash comes.
- >That’s right, today is the day she gets out of the hospital.
- >You would have swung by, but seeing this mess.
- >Nope.
- >You better start cleaning.
- >You fill a large bag with empty wine bottles.
- >And rearrange the furniture so it doesn’t look like a makeshift scene for Celestia’s karaoke show.
- >She is going to be the best boss ever.
- >You pick up the broom and start sweeping.
- >You there is a big spot on your floor, you get it off after fifteen minutes of scrubbing.
- >After a long time you are finally done cleaning.
- >You place your bottle of Applejack D with your other booze and go upstairs.
- >You walk into your room and undress.
- >It feels good to be out of those robes.
- >You feel so liberated letting it all hang like this.
- >Time for that bath you promised yourself.
- >You grab a towel from your cupboard and enter your bathroom.
- >The towel is dropped on the floor and you step up in the tub.
- >The showerhead’s thin strings of water hits your head and you just stand there reflecting on life and its meaning.
- >Is there really a god?
- >What if there are adjacent Equestrias and adjacent Earths to your dimension(s)?
- >You wonder if that changeling ambassador really is as bad as Celestia told you.
- >Maybe you can try to befriend him and secure peace for both of your nations.
- >The water is getting cold now.
- >You quickly grab the shampoo bottle and press.
- >A large pool of liquid soap lands on your hand.
- >You quickly work it into your hair and get it back out again as fast as you can.
- >The water’s temperature is not pleasant anymore.
- >Your teeth clatter as you step out of your little philosopher’s bathtub.
- >Only now do you notice the steady, hard knocking on your door.
- >You run down the stairs while you wrap your pelvis in the towel.
- >You turn the doorknob.
- >RD: “About time.”
- >She walks right in.
- >RD: “Wow this place looks much smaller on the outside.
- “Ummm… yeah. I was just showering. Make yourself at home I’ll be back in a minute.”
- >You hurry back up the stairs again, dry yourself and put on some new clothes.
- >You hear Rainbow’s voice from downstairs. “Fluttershy is coming by later with some of my stuff.”
- >Fluttershy is nice.
- >Maybe she will bring some food.
- >The thought of food makes your mouth water and your stomach growl.
- >You haven’t had lunch because you were too busy cleaning.
- >You walk down the stairs and see Rainbow Dash sitting on your sofa.
- >You sit down beside her and open your mouth to ask her how she is doing but you are cut off by her.
- >RD: “Why didn’t you come to the hospital? All the others were there.”
- “Well, I wanted to clean up before you came.”
- >RD: “Yeah right. You didn’t even think about maybe doing it after I came? I waited for you to come pick me up.”
- >What the hay!
- >You spent all day cleaning up just so your ´bro` could come here and rant about you not being there for her.
- >You cleaned this up for her more than for you.
- “Do you have any idea what it looks like when you let a drunken Celestia into your house!”
- >RD: “No.”
- >IT WAS A RHETORICAL QUESTION.
- >RD: “Chill dude. What was that with a drunken Celestia?”
- >Okay maybe yelling at your new roommate is a bad idea.
- >You should definitely tell her the story of drunk Celestia.
- “Okay, Celestia came by yesterday to offer me a job…”
- >RD: “That’s great Anon! We should celebrate.”
- >No one ever lets you finish.
- “Yeah yeah, whatever. Anyway I open up a bottle of wine to celebrate, that turns into two bottles of wine and so on.”
- >Rainbow is snickering now; she knows where this is going.
- “Celestia starts singing and dancing. Now that I think about it she has an amazing voice.”
- >The snicker quickly changes into a loud laughter.
- >Now for the best part.
- “After she emptied bottle number… I don’t remember she got real~ friendly.”
- >Rainbow Dash is still laughing when she asks. “Wait a moment… Dick you buck her?”
- >Now you are the one laughing.
- “Of course I didn’t bang her.” That sounded a little mean. “I mean she’s my boss, you can’t buck your boss.”
- >Rainbow Dash’s laughter dies down. “So what are you going to work as? Cleaning toilets at the castle?”
- >Yeah as if you would ever clean toilets.
- >Okay you would clean toilets for your salary.
- “No, I got work as an ambassador.”
- >Dash’s jaw hits the floor. “An ambassador? That’s awesome!”
- >Yeah. You are pretty awesome now that you think about it.
- >Later that day a familiar mail mare knocks on your door.
- >Derpy: “Hi Anonymous, I have a package for you.” Derpy drops a large cardboard box on your doorstep.
- “Thank you Derpy.” You say as you pick up the package.
- >Celestia this thing is heavy.
- >You shake it a bit.
- >It sounds like metal.
- >Derpy: “I’m so happy you are out from the hospital, I couldn’t visit you because I’m not allowed inside with all the expensive stuff.”
- >That’s why she didn’t visit you.
- >You thought she just didn’t like you.
- >You wrap your arms around you and give her a big hug.
- “I’m glad too.”
- >RD: “Oh hey Derpy.”
- >Rainbow Dash appears in the doorway. “What are you doing here?”
- >Derpy: “I just came to visit Anon and give him a package from Celestia.”
- >Celestia.
- >You all stand there for a moment not saying anything.
- >Aahhh.
- >This is nice.
- >Derpy: “… you can let go now.”
- >You quickly do so. “Hehe, sorry.”
- >Awkward silence is awkward.
- >Derpy: “Well I better go.” She says with reddened cheeks.
- >Not long after Derpy left Rainbow blurts out. “I can’t take it, what’s in the box?”
- >You bring it inside and open it with a knife.
- >You LOVE Celestia.
- >Bits.
- >Bits everywhere.
- >And a note.
- >”Dear Anonymous.
- >I had a lot of fun yesterday and I look forward to having you work at the castle. Luna might not have gotten a good first impression but I am sure we can fix that. Next time the alcohol is my treat.
- >As promised 300 bits in advance.
- >Sincerely yours. Celestia.”
- >How sweet of her.
- “Three hundred bits.” You say and tap the box with your hand.
- >RD: “Sweet, let’s get something to eat and then we’ll figure out what to use the money for.”
- >Having Rainbro as your roommate is going to be perfect.
- >You just know it.
