This story is a sequel to Stranger in the Forest


It is winter in Equestria, and Hearth's Warming is just around the corner. But this year it will be different, as Ponyville's unique visitor has his own plans to liven up the holidays.

A non canon one shot for the holidays that didn't quite make it for Christmas. Enjoy. :twilightsmile:

is that Icon rianheart?

Yes, it was very good! Nice use of Santa-hardt too!

Loved it, Happy New Year BTW. 🎉🎇🎆

I'm just imagining celestia and Luna wearing red noses and reindeer antlers :rainbowlaugh:

Well I wonder how Scruffy will handle the affections of Luna and Rarity?

As usual thanks for the update! And may you have a happy new year over there in Finland! At least I assume you live in Finland.

Luna and Rarity swooned.

Princess of the Night does not 'swooned', she only 'mooned'.

... I SUPPORT THE IDEA THAT SCRUFFY IS REINHARDT OF OVERWATCH! Now Spike, be a dear and TRAIN YOUR SCALY ABS TO BE SO SWOONABLE! Rarity will appreciate the view!

In a very manly manner, of course. :moustache: But since this was just a one shot, I doubt we'll ever know, unless someone writes fanfiction of my fanfiction. :rainbowlaugh:

I keep imagining Santa Braum...

damn u santa~!:trollestia:
y u no eat ur cookies?!:yay:

Somehow, I can imagine Scruffy being a much older Reinhardt.

A delightful holiday one shot of one of my favorite HiE stories on the site. Merry Christmas indeed... Oh and a bit of a typo...
“Ehehe...w-what are you doing here anyway?” Spine nervously asked, changing the subject.
So close, lol.:moustache:

Whoops, better go fix that right away. :twilightsmile:

Aww, that was Beuatiful! :heart:
Scruffy is a really nice guy. Xd
Glad you wrote this bro! And I hope you had a merry Christmas. :twilightsmile:

This was great, a nice little spinoff that doesn't feel too out of place if it were to be in the original story, I had a big smile on my face the whole time!

Heh nice spinoff with that 'stupid sexy scruffy' touch

One thing though: I don't think Scruffy's house was mentioned(even though he gets his stuff from there) nor have the ponies been there before, Its like one of the original fic's mysteries

That is indeed correct. The ponies don't know where Scruffy lives in the first story. But minor spoiler alert, they will later. :derpytongue2:

So Scruffy is Reinhardt.
... okay. I am perfectly okay with this!

And this was a wonderful chapter, the part when the gift-giving came had me smiling the stupidest happy smile. It just radiated pure joy!

“That sound like a wonderful tradition,” Celestia smiled.

*sigh* I'll spare you the tirade on my opinion of the practice of lying to one's children.

Really digging these stories. Just found them and binge read them. I'm guessing this is set after the events of the main story...but during season 3 of the show. Twlight isn't a Princess and the House hasn't been destroyed and replaced with a castle...come to think of it Discord is still stone and hasn't been reformed yet.

That Santa Claus looks like somebody from Team Fortress 2

Reinhardt from Overwatch, actually :derpytongue2:

8853193
Yeah I looked at the link and saw the name in there. Was actually wondering why it looked familiar

He looks like rainheart

9322273
That is because it is Reinhardt in the picture. :twilightsmile:

I love it but i just noticed his langue is better in this one then in the main story

9363571
Yup. After a long time of pronouncing words wrong, he's finally learned how to speak. :rainbowlaugh: If the main story ever catches up with these and they become canon, you'll have known beforehand that Scruffy can one day speak normally, although he still needs the magic doohickey for it.

9363571
Yes, this is a non(semi?)canon story set in the future.

9363582
Random question thats bugging me I know scruffy is in his what 50s-60S but how old is he in equestrian time

9363589
Equestria had different time? :rainbowderp:

9363596
I don't know Thats why I asked you

The title had me thinking the Dazzlings would be popping in.

Oh yay your ponies arent tiny

Thanks for the wonderful gift sir! This has made my evening!
