Lollipops

>Call fluffy pony over from playing with her blocks
>Tell her she needs to take some medicine
>“Go vet?” she asks, a nervous look coming across her face
>She doesn’t like going to the vet, even though you’ve explained it’s for her own good
>Tell her it’s just a shot you can give her at home; she doesn’t need to go to the vet
>“Wowwypop?” fluffy pony asks
>Assure her you’ll let her have a lollipop afterwards, just like the vet does
>This seems to assuage her fears
>Get out the hypodermic needle you prepared before you called fluffy pony over
>Give fluffy pony a flu shot
>Fluffy pony's lip quivers, but she doesn't cry
>Let her have a lollipop for being a brave pony, like you promised
>Fluffy pony grips it between her hooves, and starts licking away at it
>Gets it stuck to the hair on the said of face
>Can still see the stick out of the side of the corner of her eye
>Starts running around in circles trying to get it
