//------------------------------// // Tolerating the Pub // Story: Can We Do It Naked? // by deerstunt //------------------------------// "Fat ponies are so fat!" Silver stated. "Really, I didn't know that!" Flare responded sarcastically. Silver didn’t care, as he doesn't realize Flare was being sarcastic. They started to walk to the pub, in Ponyville, to grab a drink of Sweet Apple Acres cider. Silver walking into the pub first stops in the doorframe. Flare not paying attention bumps into his butt. "What are you doing you fat cow? GO!" Flare yelled. "Dude check her out, look at that mare!" Silver whispered to Flare. Flare starting to look around Silver trying to find out who he is looking at. "Dude this place is filled with mares, who are you looking at?" Flare asked. "I don't know her name!" Silver responded. Flare is face hoofing him self at this moment. "Dude, I know you don't know her name, I was asking you to point her out." Flare demanded "I can't point her out she will notice me!" Silver responded. "What are you talking about she won't notice you? She’s looking at you!" Flare yelled. "How do you know?" Silver asked. "Every pony is bucking looking at you!" Flare yelled. A line starts to build up outside the door from Silver not moving. The idolized mare gets up and started to trot toward Silver. "Dude, why is she coming this way?" Silver asks panicking. "Well you are standing at the only exit in the building." The mare stops in front of Silver. "HI, my name is Silver Spirit, what is your name?" Silver asked. "My name is Coco. Can I get out?" Coco asked. Silver started to lean on the doorframe in the middle of the door way not noticing he is blocking the only exit and entrance in the building. "Yeah, I would like to go out with you." Flare at this point stops trying to correct Silver and just face hooves himself sighing. "Uh No. I want to get outside, and you are blocking the doorway." Coco told Silver "Oh, sorry about that… I'll just be over there." "Yeah, Ok." Coco responded. Silver finally got out of the doorway and everypony rushed in. Coco left the scene while Silver and Flare went to a table in the corner. "So at least you got her name." Flare told Silver. "Shut Up!" Silver said. "Hey, that was better than last time." Flare told Silver. "What do you mean last time?" Silver asked. "Exactly!" Flare told Silver while leaning over the table, pointing at Silver. The waitress made her way over to the table Silver and Flare were at. "What can I get you?" "Two Apple Acres Ciders, with two cubes of salt!' Flare said energetically while moving his pointing hoof at the waitress, still leaning over the table. With the waitress crossed eyed and trying to talk with Flare's hoof inches from her lip. She backs up and then turns around mumbling to herself. "I don't get paid enough for this." "Well some pony needs a tampon!" Flare said after hearing what the waitress said. Silver laughed while the doors opened in the pub, Silver and Flare look over to see who was coming in. "Who is it?" Silver asked. "Do I look like Pinkie Pie? I don't know everypony." Flare told Silver. Coco walked in and sat down at the bar. Silver at this point was still embarrassed of what happened earlier and decides to hide himself behind Flare. "I am going to go talk to her for you." Flare told Silver. Silver tried to grab Flare before he stood up and walked away. Silver wasn't quick enough and Flare began to walk over to Coco to sit right beside her. "Hey, sorry about my friend, he kind of has a crush on you and wants you to talk him." "Uh Huh." Coco responded. "Your name is Coco right?" Flare asked. "No, my name is Que… uhhhhh yeah Coco!" Coco answered. Flare thought for a minute trying to figure out what she was trying to say. "Um Coco yeah, well would you like to come talk with my friend?" "No, this queen has no need for peasants." Coco said. "Wait, he might be useless but he isn't a peasant." Flare stated. Coco laughed and then started to smile passionately at Flare. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Flare asked. Flare slowly started to stand up and walk away during the awkward situation. "Wait, I’m not who you think I am!" Coco exclaimed. "What do you mean?" Flare asked cautiously. Coco flashed with green flames transforming into Queen Chrysalis. Everypony besides Silver is in fear. Silver is shocked, but he is wandering where Coco went. "Where the buck is Coco!" Silver yelled. "Where the buck are our drinks!" Flare yelled at Silver. "Why the buck are you not amazed!" Chrysalis yelled at Flare. "Look I just want my cider." Flare responded to Chrysalis. "Where the buck is Coco!" Silver yelled again. "Can't you see I'm busy with something more important than your mare right now?" Chrysalis told Silver. "Oh okay!" Silver said with joy. "I'm getting my own drink!" Flare stated. "Come with me and you can have all the cider you want!" Chrysalis told Flare. "If I come with you can I have all the Coco I want?" Silver asked. Flare and Chrysalis stared at Silver with dumbstruck faces. "Is he really this stupid?" Chrysalis asked. "Just about, you just have to learn to tolerate it." Flare told Chrysalis. "Now, I can see why you want cider so badly." Chrysalis whispered to Flare. "Yep!" Flare responded. Silver is still waiting for an answer.
