This story is a sequel to Mistakes were made

With the local human having ceased wandering and causing ruckus he attempts - with Twilight's ever-patient assistance - to calm down, make it up to those that he needs to make it up to and generally live his best his life.

His greatest obstacle in this, as with most things post-arrival, is his towering neurosis.

And maybe the uncomfortable fact that he can't stop growing larger and more resilient with each passing day. And that not being belligerent to the wildlife gives him sufficient time to fully contemplate the breadth of his situation as a lone and isolated example of his kind in a world entirely not his own, try as he might to just ignore it and stop his brain from eating itself with irritating doubts and fears.

Other than that he's having a whale of a time.

Keith, local human, happily wiles away some time by painting himself a picture with his imagination brush and the aid of some figurines, thinking that he is doing so in private.

He is not.

A horse appears semi-regularly. A magical horse. Mainly she comes to relax and take up space. She's polite and friendly but it did take some getting used to.

Still. Worse things have happened.

A reading by Straight To The Point Studio.

And by me.

Celestia forces reluctant local human to get back into bed, damnit, so they can have the lazy day like they planned.

Local human retaliates by forcing her into bed.

Nothing of value is lost or gained.

A lazy day for Celestia and the human she is for some inexplicable reason shacking up with.

What does that mean?

Means staying in bed! Means cuddling! Snuggling! And -

Oh dear.

Somehow, this also got a reading from Straight To The Point Studios. Not sure how that happened.

Dillon, local human, has a surprise for his fine friend Pinkie. Not the most amazing or sophisticated of surprises, but that hardly matters - the two of them proceed to have excellent, friendly fun together!

Later, Twilight is confounded.

Everyone's a winner.

Straight To The Point Studio's got the hookup

Without a lot to do, Alan has let the over-large box from an online order sit around his place for weeks now. Predictably, when he finally gets the energy to do something about it he finds that a pony has moved into it.

Things happen from there. Nothing exciting but, you know, they still happen.

Twilight is hungry, and for reason she decides that what she wants is a sandwich - and a sandwich made by the local human, too. He makes good ones.

She finds him in something of a funk, however, which is exactly what she didn't need when she's hungry. Still, these things are sent to test us.

Later, he's better. Very better.

Visiting her unremarkable human pen pal Henry, Celestia had a pleasant night out.

The morning after is less pleasant. Often these things have an inverse relationship.

Sunset, having lost track of precisely when her birthday is (on account of dimension hopping) receives belated surprises, first from the girls, second from some random guy she just happens to know for some reason.

The second one is perhaps unusual.
