- >Day 'Today will be a good day god damnit' in Equestria
- >Today you're at one of Ponyville's fine dining restaurants.
- >Looking over the menu, you sigh, doing your best to stay positive.
- >It's not exactly easy.
- >Shaking your head, you put down the menu.
- >Why did you come here anyway? The only thing to eat is hay and flowers.
- >Oh, and 'fries' made of a non-specified substance. Great.
- >You're about to get out of your small and uncomfortable seat when you notice something in the other seat across from you.
- >Slowly a pink and purple puff of fluff creeps up from the mushroom chair.
- >Before long a smiling filly is in the seat across from you.
- >This won't end well.
- >"Hi, Anon!"
- "...Hello, Sweetie Belle."
- >The little pony reaches down, presumably into a bag at her feet. She pulls out...
- >A banana. A really, really big banana.
- >"Mm... I love bananas."
- "...I'm sure you do. Why don't you go eat them over there?"
- >You point over to another free table.
- >The filly shakes her head. "Nah, I like it here. Besides... I wanted to talk."
- "About?"
- >"About last week." She looks down at the large, yellow fruit in her hooves.
- >You cringe internally. Why now? Why not when there aren't a bunch of ponies listening in?
- >Though, they'd obviously claim to the contrary.
- >"I wanted to apologize for being so upfront about it. Demanding you ride me into the night like that was wrong, and definitely not what a lady is supposed to do."
- >A few ponies glance over.
- "...Okay. Apology accepted. Now, run along, before the FBI gets here."
- >She blinks. "The... Eff bee eye? Uh..."
- "Nevermind that. Just, shoo."
- >"But aren't you lonely, eating here all by yourself? I figured now would be a perfect time for us to go on a date!"
- >You stare down at her. Is this filly for real?
- "Sweetie Belle, that is a terrible idea."
- >"Why?"
- "Because I don't /want/ to date you?"
- >She flinches back. "Oh. Well... then we can just be two friends! Hanging out! That's okay, right?"
- >Sweetie smiles at you with such intensity it might melt a lesser man's heart.
- >"So, what are you getting?"
- "...Nothing. I can't eat flowers."
- >She gapes. "Y-You can't? That's horrible!"
- >You open your mouth to tell her it's fine, only for her to toss her banana at you.
- >It harmlessly bounces off your chest, landing on your table. "Here, you can have a banana!"
- >There's a few snickers from the 'crowd.'
- "...Thanks."
- >She pulls out another banana from her bag.
- >After a bit of fumbling with it, she manages to peel it down a bit.
- >"D-Did I tell you how much I love bananas?"
- "Yes."
- >She blushes slightly. "I-I did? About how I love it when they're big... and hard... and um... hard?"
- >You resist the urge to slam your face into the table.
- >Sweetie lets out an overly exaggerated sigh. "But all the bananas in Ponyville are so small! And soft. And they go bad in a couple weeks..."
- "That's... fruit for you."
- >"Yeah..."
- >She slowly licks the tip of her peeled banana, stuffing the top of it into her mouth.
- >All the while her eyes are on you.
- >The filly takes the banana out of her mouth, gasping slightly.
- >"You know... Anon. I heard some places have special /pink/ bananas... Big, long, and full of delicious cream."
- >She winks at you.
- "...I think I'm going to go."
- >"But Anon you haven't even had your banana! Surely you can spare a moment more."
- >She pauses, winking at you once again. "For me?"
- >You glance about. The other ponies here are just as, if not even more, creeped out as you are.
- >After a moment, you reach down at the banana, taking a hold of it.
- >And then stop when you feel something... wet and slimy coating it.
- "...Sweetie Belle?"
- >"Yes, Anon?"
- >You drop the banana, hand shaking. No. No!
- "I'm not doing this."
- >Throwing your hands up in defeat, you stalk away.
- >"W-Wait! It wasn't my juice! It was Apple Bloom's! I swear! Just taste it, you'll see"
- "No! I'm done!"
- >She reaches out to you. "I swear, it tastes like apples, not... um... bells! Anon!"
- >By then you're already on your way home.
- >There you immediately rush into the bathroom, finding Twilight and her 'friend' busy at play in the tub.
- >Without a word you grab them, one after the other and toss them out, then switch the showers stream to the coldest possible.
- >Getting in, you groan in agony as the filth rolls off of you.
- "Never again! I'm never going outside every again!"
- >You repeat your mantra over and over. Twilight just sort of stares, confused.
- >Today was a 'great' day.
