Fluttershy just wants a little pony company. It doesn't have to be conversation. Maybe she'll just sit and sip the water as it melts off the ice cubes from her empty drink, and watch the other ponies talk. That would be nice.

Or maybe something entirely different will happen.

Now on EqD. Notice the sad tag. That means it's sad.

1. Happy Thoughts (horror):  Her sun, happy to be in its place in the sky, wrapped the land in its warm embrace, and flowers bloomed in her hoofprints.  Celestia smiled.  It was going to be another perfect day in Equestria.  And all she had to do was think happy thoughts.  Again.

Derpy Hooves is secretly a changeling.

Nopony particularly notices, or cares.

Ditzy Doo went on a date about a week ago. After some severe confusion the stallion that treated her to dinner left in a huff, leaving a very confused mare behind. After a good deal of puzzling Ditzy decides to seek outside help, not realizing the information she seeks isn't something most are willing to "chat" about. Her determination eventually takes her all the way to the top of Equestria's social ladder, the goddess Celestia.

Written in first person, I'm writing this to get it out of my head. This is my first attempt at first person, and reviews are very much appreciated. I don't know if this will be as funny as I think it is, but I'll hope it gets at least three views.

Fluttershy is used to nursing critters of all sorts back to health. When she comes across a broken showmare, however, it will take all her patience and care to help the other pony. Especially when Trixie begrudges her help every step of the way. Can she get through to her? And can Trixie learn that she doesn't need to stand alone to stand strong?
