It starts with a yawn · 4:03am Jun 29th, 2018
Everything was peaceful, perfect, the night was wonderful, that is, until Sumac yawned.
Under these circumstances, yawning could end a pony, and even as Sumac was closing his mouth, Twinkleshine said the following: “It’s way, way past your bedtime, Sumac Apple.”
Was there even a bed for him to be tucked into for the night? For that matter, what was the plan for sleeping, anyhow? Pebble, having witnessed a yawn, now did so herself, and this caused Twinkleshine to yawn. Having seen both Pebble and Twinkleshine yawn caused Sumac to do so again, only he remembered to be polite and to cover his mouth.
“You did this.” Pebble’s tone and gaze was accusatory. She leveled her leaden, deadpan stare upon Sumac and for a moment, she was her mother’s spitting image, but then she succumbed to yet another yawn.
Fearing reprisal, Sumac slipped his lips around his straw and drank more of his seltzer, which was quite refreshing. He also averted his eyes, because Pebble yawning did something to his mind and body, something he just wasn’t prepared to deal with right now. Even as he stared down at the white tablecloth, he thought of Pebble’s yawning and felt warm all over, as if he sat in the sun for too long.
Are you yawning right now?
Yes because it's 11:30 at night and I should be in bed. X3 And this bit of sugary sweetness might keep me up longer! Thanks a bunch!
