//------------------------------// // Making Scootaloo chocolate pudding. // Story: Home is for the Weak // by Pickleless //------------------------------// Nopony yawned and peeked out of the box, it was raining. Next to him was Scootaloo shivering. He pulled her in close with his wing. "What were you doing out in the rain?" He asked. "I wasn't, I'm sick." Scootaloo sniffed. "Oh, that's unfortunate." Nopony got up, and started trotting out into the rain. "Hey, where are you going?!" Scootaloo yelled. She watched as he walked out of the alleyway, 5 minutes later, he was still gone. "Stupid garbage swan..." Scootaloo muttered. Scootaloo turned over and tried to go back to sleep. Ten minutes later, she felt something lift her up. Nopony laid her head against a pillow and draped a blanket over her. "So I was going to get you chicken soup." Nopony ruffled through a bag. Scootaloo glared at him. "So I did," Nopony said as he put down a can of soup. Scootaloo stared at the can of chicken soup. "I hate you." "That's just the illness talking, I would say it's the hunger talking, but you're always hungry. Anyway, I also got you lentil soup and some cold medicine." "Is that the kind you dissolve in a glass of water?" "Yeah." "Where are you going to get a glass, let alone water right now?" Nopony looked around him, his eyes stopping on the can of chicken soup, he opened and dumped it out in the alleyway and left it in the rain to fill full of water. "You're giving me cold medicine in a can of chicken soup?" Scootaloo whined. "Hey, whatever works." "Ugh, fine... Alright wise guy, what are you gonna do to heat up the lentil?" Nopony stared at the lentil soup, and then back at Scootaloo. Without saying a word he grabbed the soup and walked out of the alleyway. Taking his time, he slowly trotted over to Twilight's castle and walked in without knocking. Nopony made his way into the library. "What the- who are you?" Twilight frowned as a dirty stallion walked past her. "Hey, I'm gonna borrow these real quick." Nopony started grabbing Twilight's favorite romance novels off her personal shelf. "What? No! Who are you, why are you here?!" Nopony set them down on the floor in front of her. He stood up on his hind legs, grabbed his member, and started peeing on her books. Twilight watched in horror. "There we go." Nopony shook out what was left. "You can have em back now." "Wh... ah... aaaAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!" Nopony watched as Twilight's mane and tail caught on fire. Quickly, he stuck the lentil soup in her mane for a second. "YOU," She screamed, "HOW COULD YOU DO SUCH A THING YOU MONSTER! I'LL- HEY! WHERE ARE YOU GOING?! COME BACK! YOU CAN'T JUST..." Nopony passed by Spike on his way to the kitchen. "Hey Spike, Twilight needs you to clean up some books that got peed on in her private library." "Again?!" Spike threw his arms up in defeat. Nopony walked into the kitchen and grabbed one of Twilight's bowls, he dumped the piping hot soup into it. When he turned around Twilight stood in the doorway, with her mane still on fire. "WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?!" She screamed. Nopony trotted over to Twilight, swept her off her hooves, and kissed her. "Twilight... Will you marry me?" Nopony stared deep into her eyes. "I... buh... wuh..." Twilight stuttered. Nopony dropped her on the floor, picked up the bowl of lentil with his wings, and trotted out of the kitchen. Holding the soup close so it wouldn't get rained on, he trotted out of the castle and back to his alleyway. He gave a slight nod of approval when he saw that Scootaloo drank her medicine. Scootaloo frowned when she saw the bowl of warm soup. "How did you do that," she asked, "and why is your hoof all burnt up?" "I took a piss." ... "Did you pee into this bowl of soup?" Scootaloo accused. "Maybe." Nopony shrugged. ... "Just gimme the stupid soup." Scootaloo sighed. Scootaloo woke up feeling a lot better. She turned her body sideways and snuggled in closer to Nopony. Absentmindedly, she glanced at her pillow. It had a pillow sheet decorated with chickens. "Oh come on!"
