//------------------------------// // On the 4th day of christmas, // Story: Happy hearths warming! // by Featherclaw //------------------------------// It was lunchtime in Fluttershy's cottage, and Discord and Fluttershy were looking for Angel bunny. He was nowhere to be found! Fluttershy finally looked in his bed, and she gasped in terror at the sight before her. Angel was shivering ridiculously! He had also turned a bit blue, and had a bit of frost bite on his tail and feet. With just one look at Discord made him snap his fingers and cover Angel bunny in four blankets and have a heating bottle. Angel was still shivering violently and Discord sighed. "Fluttershy, I think you may have to accept the fact that-" "NO!" Fluttershy shouted at Discord. Discord gave a pitiful glance at Fluttershy and decided to think of a solution. He made a lightbulb appear and told Fluttershy of his idea. "I think this still has to do with the Windigos. Maybe one of them touched Angel since he, he, hates me." "Oh how are we going to fix that?!" Fluttershy's gaze at Discord made him want to hug her even more than he usually wants to. "I, I think I have to soften up to him. So, *ahem* Angel, I think you are a wonderful bunny. You seem to treat Fluttershy well, and I couldn't ask anymore from you. So, Friends?" Discord touched Angel's fur and he started to change back to his normal and usual color. He was still shivering, but definitely not as worse as it used to be, thank Celestia. Taking Angel by the scruff of his neck, Discord moved him over to his bed and provided, yet again, four heating blankets and a cup of hot cocoa. "Well what should we do now? We already got the candy canes from the advent calendar. We also already checked outside, which is the same as usual." Discord asked Fluttershy. In response, Fluttershy slumped to the floor, wondering what she should do to cure boredom. Discord was also wondering too. Being bored with the lord of chaos is ironic, a tad too ironic for Discord. "How about you brush my hair?" Yeah, that's a great idea Discord... He thought to himself, mistaking Fluttershy's voice for his own conscience. "Um, Discord?" "Huh? Oh sorry, I was thinking..." Discord mentally face-pawed himself. "An idea is, that, well you could brush my hair. I haven't done it in a while with anypony." Fluttershy blushed so she hid behind her mane, giving Discord the perfect reason to touch Fluttershy's hair. "Oh yes! We could totally do that, so you my dear, wont hide behind your mane." Discord knew Fluttershy wouldn't back down so he summoned Fluttershy's hairbrush along with bows, clips and hair-ties. Fluttershy got up from her spot and moved over towards the couch and sat herself down. Discord flew over to Fluttershy and summoned a stool for himself to sit on. He grabbed the brush and brushed Fluttershy's mane. He held her mane with his talon claw, and held the brush with his paw. Fluttershy shivered slightly and closed her eyes as Discord brushed her hair and touched her ever so slightly on her neck. When Fluttershy sighed, Discord would have turned into pudding yet took all his will power to not do so. Then something surprised Discord, enough to make him breathe deeply, which is the closest you can get from him that meant a gasp or a sigh. What was surprising was that Fluttershy started singing! "I have met an odd creature, who's unlike any other." Discord's eyes grew big as he heard her perfect and angelic voice. "He's just so chaotic, and that's why I admire him!" Discord realized she was singing about him. HIM! "Oh what's this beating, the beating in my chest," Ooh! his is going to be good! I should sing with her. "Oh what's this feeling, the feeling, in my, heart!" Time for me to sing with her! "I have met a beautiful pony, who's incomparable," Woops, too many syllables. "She's just so sweet, and that's why I adore her," I don't care that it is not the same, it's the lord of chaos after all, it's just bound to be different! "Oh what's this beating, the beating in my chest," It's the heart, oh whatever! It's a sweet love song! I don't care if it's cheesy! "Oh what's this feeling, the feeling, in my, heart!" Time for the duet!! "Oh woah oh! Why do I feel this way! Maybe it is because of his craziness!" Gosh, she sounds so beautiful! "Or maybe it is because of her calmness! Oh woah oh! Why do I feel this way!" Time for her part! "Maybe it is because of the way he talks," "Or maybe it is because of the way she walks," "Oh woah oh! Why do I feel this way! Maybe it is because of the way he makes stuff out of thin air!" "Or maybe it is because of the way she hides behind her pretty hair." Then I think we harmonize. "Oh woah oh! Why do I feel this way! Oh woah oh! Why do I feel this way! Oh woah oh! Why, do, I, feel, this, way!" "Where did you learn that song? I haven't heard of that before!" Discord asks Fluttershy after their song. "Oh I don't know. I just thought up the lyrics, and sang it. I guess I could say the same thing about you." Fluttershy turns around, motioning for Discord to keep on brushing her hair. "Well I just figured out the rhythm and started singing as well." Discord self-consciously pulled her hair back so he could tie it with a hair-bow. "Oh that makes sense." Fluttershy shifted so she stood up taller. Discord just finished tying the bow, so he spun her around so he could see her. "Wow." "What is it Discord?" Fluttershy asked. "You look like a totally different pony." Fluttershy grabbed the mirror that was close by and gasped at herself. "I, I look exactly like my grandmother! Posey!" Fluttershy exclaimed as she went upstairs, but nearly tripped on a stream of candlelights that fell down. In about no time, Fluttershy came back with a picture of an old looking fluttershy but with the same hair-bow. "Woah! Just look at the similarities!" Discord exclaimed. "So that's where you get the colorings!" "Yep. I guess so." On the fourth day of Christmas my true love gave to me, four heating blankets, three windigos, two Hershey's kisses, and a great big breakfast buffet!
