Ignore this blog. · 5:08pm Oct 27th, 2016
I need a place to put this RD of the opening of the next chapter of Office Love. SO. Ignore this blog :)))))
Every choice has a consequence. Every choice has a silver lining.
You can't help but smile as you're writing out paperwork at your desk. It's been nearly a month since... well, 'The Night.' The night when everything happened in such a quick succession that you could only act on your natural instinct.
Mulberry was released from the hospital after a few days of recovery and some decent casts. She was given a medical leave of absence from her job, which broke her heart. You suppose the silver lining is that she badly needed a break to get her head together.
Taking your mug of coffee, you take a deep sip to push yourself through those afternoon sleep spells. You glance around at the four walls of your office and can't help feeling somewhat... trapped. Rising to your feet, you shove a hand into your pocket and decide some fresh air is exactly what you need.
You step out of your office and walk down the hall, Nodding to brand as he passes by you.
Of course, as bad as you feel for Berry, you can't help but feel... generally good. In fact, you'd go as far as to say things are great.
Suddenly. your phone buzzes. You pull it out of your pocket and flip it open. One new Text Message from Autumn.
"I hope your having a wonderful day! <3"
An involuntary smile curls on your face as you type out a reply.
"I'm having a great day. I hope you are too, babe. <3"
You shove your phone back into your pocket before hitting the button for the elevator.
There isn't a lot of things that you ask for in life. A simple job. Steady income. But somehow, some greater power blessed you with Autumn, and you're more than thankful for it. The last four weeks with her have made each day something new and exciting to tackle. Sometimes the two of you would hit the town for a night of wine and good food, and sometimes you'd just stay inside, read a book together, and lose track of the time. Heck, she's even gotten to the point of leaving a spare set of clothes for work around your place. That's a good sign. Right? You're pretty sure that's a good sign.
The elevator chime rings, the doors open, and you step inside.
Then, well. Then there's Fluttershy.
"Hold the door please," says a weak feminine voice from the hall.
You recognize it instantly, and you aren't sure if you should hold it or not. Against your natural judgement, you hold the door.
The yellow pegasus trots towards the elevator, then freezes once she sees you inside. A chill fills the air as the two of you stand, facing each other.
"Uhm, on second thought, I think I'm going up. Not down," she says.
"You sure?" you ask.
She nods quietly and you let the door close between the two of you.
Things with Fluttershy aren't... really good. After that night, the dynamic between the two of you has totally shifted. Today was a good day, as far as it goes. She hasn't cried at work in almost a week or two. That said, you can't help but wonder if she's just done a better job at hiding it. She prefers to speak to you through post-it notes now, rather than face to face. And while a part of you can't help but feel guilty... she put you on the spot. What else were you supposed to do?
The doors to the elevator chime open and you step out into the tiled floors of the main floor. You do your best to admire the fountain in the office lobby, but you can't get your mind off of the yellow pegasus. You haven't really tried to talk to her to make amends yet, but could that be for the better? She took advantage of you before... and tried to bed you another time. Does she really have your best interests at heart?
You push out the front doors of the office as you look to the crowd of people in front of the building. You pause, feeling a sickening sense of deja-vu overwhelm you.
"Wait a minute," you mutter to yourself.
In a flash, you move to the crowd of people and look along with the crowd. There, standing at the top of your office building, is a yellow pegasus, with a long pink mane, swaying in the wind. She pauses, staring down at the ground.
"Don't do it!" somepony in the group calls up to her.
You feel as if you lose your voice. You try to move your arms, but you're rooted to the spot.
She places a hoof on the lip of the building, then leaps.
You open your mouth to scream, but nothing comes out.
Then, the world around you vanishes. You feel your body spasm as you open your eyes to the darkness of your room. Moonlight streams through your windows as you sit up in bed and feel the coolness of your apartment on your clammy skin. You place a hand to your forehead, trying to catch your breath.
The fall colored mare in the covers beside you stirs and turns on a light.
"Was it another bad dream?" she asks groggily.
You remain quiet for a moment before returning a simple 'yeah.'
I tried... I really did, but it was TOO tempting! I'm sorry!
Yeah, titling it "Ignore This Post" is basically a demand to read.
Oh good, North Korea got to this blog post and painted it in censorship.
Next level reverse psychology here
Alright then. Anyone else excited for Guardians of the Galaxy 2?

The first one was entertaining enough, so yeah, I suppose so.

I think the first one was too hyped for me. Don't get me wrong, it was good. Really good. But I'm not expecting anything more than an enjoyable experience from the second one.
Also Goddamn it. I was looking forward to your comments the most.
Well that bog post wasn't interesting I mean all you said was ignore the post so what else in that blog post is worth looking at?
4273876
Yeah, I agree. I'd say it was fun, but not spectacular. Haven't seen the trailer yet for the sequel but if they have the same writers I'd expect the next one to be like that as well.
In respect to your wishes, I have dutifully ignored the post above and will patiently wait for the final product, but I have no doubt that it'll be really good. :)
What post
Ignore this blog? Alright. I guess. So Priest how was last night's Good HiE stream? Did you guys verbally abuse Otaku again? I wasnt around to watch the stream.
Teasing us fans with this. Kudos! :P I can't wait for the chapter.
