Big Macintosh is a stallion of few words, but that doesn't mean he's slow or uneducated. Unknown to any outside the Apple family, he's a wiz at math and finds himself smitten with the one pony who could share his love for numbers, and who just so happens to be the personal student of Princess Celestia; Twilight Sparkle. With a "gentle" nudge from his persistent sister, Big Mac manages a date with the purple unicorn, but a relationship might turn out to be more work than either one bargained for.

They'd seen each other around, but had never truly interacted or gotten to know one another. They shared a spotlight once, but that was all. Fate keeps throwing them together, and now they can start to notice one another. The two quiet, shy souls can begin to connect...but how?

AN: Official sequel to Fun. It is not necessary to have read that story before this one.

Flowers often carry heavy meanings. Roseluck prides herself in knowing the meaning behind every flower. A flower however, has a deeper meaning. Big Mac never has any luck with flowers. For Rarity a flower is an elegant thing with truly humble beginnings. For Caramel a flower means freedom. And for Rainbow Dash, a flower is the mark of a new beginning. Hidden in the rose garden they will find a meaning all of their own.

Big Mac's injuries are bad news on a farm. Can a nosy Rainbow Dash help him to recover? Will the doctor ever tell Big Mac anything useful? Only time will tell.

The connection between Cherilee and Big McIntosh is easily seen while the antics of the Cutie Mark Crusaders were trying to get them together. But there is more to the story then them just being acquaintances. Hints can be seen in how they first react when alone together and the slight awkwardness in Cherilee's attempt at small talk.

In order to better understand the relationship between these two - why the Cutie Mark Crusaders thought they were a good match, and why they are undoubtably not the greatest of matches - derives from their younger days.

Cherilee and McIntosh were special ponies with each other at one point, but as most young foal relationships the two drifted apart in their long term goals and parted ways.

And also Thunderlane for two reasons. One - rule of three. Two - more interactions in general.

Overly grateful, Luna calls upon an ancient contract which binds her to the draft pony as his personal servant.
