Brush's Big Decision PM

Hello, hooftoy. :) *snuggles*

Sorry that I didn't wake you up, but you seemed so tired that I didn't have the heart (aww). Something urgent happened and I had to go (it won't take more than a few days).

I passed by hospital and PaintDrop is doing fine. We talked a bit (she asked if you were fine). I told her the time you spent searching for her. Poor thing is still so weak. She wouldn't tell me what happened to her. The doctors told me that other than exhaustion she's fine. They were a bit baffled how she'd be so exhausted after just three days. Thank the stars she's here now and safe.

Send a line you can. I have my portable (Dark hasn't stopped grumbling about it) so I can keep in touch with you :))

Brush

Of course you'd go to save Equestria again... :/

MasterOfThisAstra

I know :( And I'm sorry, but this is one of those times. I so much wanted to stay with you and Paint. You're right that we don't see each other as much as we should. :( I just really, really, really have to be here on this one.

Brush

Yes... I'm just being grumpy. Having sis go off like that was just. She was the wild one, compared to me, but she's never done something like this. I was supposed to be the dramatic one. Although, with everypony dumping their problems on her I understand.

You're not doing anything dangerous, are you?

MasterOfThisAstra

Me? Dangerous? Do you even know me? :P Well I suppose it's a bit dangerous, but I promise I'll take care of myself. I'm not alone in this, and usually I'm the last to get in any trouble.

So, what are you doing right now?

Brush

I'm lying in bed, stretching.

MasterOfThisAstra

Umm... an you going into more details? *blush* :P

Brush

Sometimes I don't know what to think about you. And no, I'm not so desperate to engage in aethernet roleplay!

MasterOfThisAstra

Who said you were desperate :P

By the way, I did a lot of thinking and have come to a decision. You are right. It's stupid pretending we're just close friends. Most ponies know it anyway so I might as well make it official. When I come back we're having a party and I'm announcing our courtship! :D

Brush

Sugar wings... I... I don't know what to say.

MasterOfThisAstra

That's why you're an editor and not a writer ;)

Brush

That means a lot to me. I'll talk with my Dean if I can take some time off to stay with Paint. We can combine the two.

To be honest, I didn't expect you'd be the one to suggest. I thought of raising the question on a few weeks, but. You're incredible, Brush. I'm sorry for constantly being grumbly. Like I said you are so perfect and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. (Hopefully, a slightly calmer life. :))

I can hear my parents sigh in relief now. For some reason they still fear I might end up being a bachelor. And they drop the most obvious hints about it. (Their mind games are extremely efficient.) I'm sure they've already taken your measurements for a wedding dress.

MasterOfThisAstra

Actually they have taken both our measurements. Rarity told me when we were at the spa together. They used the Molly and Bellucio costumes and got her to wedding clothes for the both of us. Designs of wedding clothes, that is. And of course, being what she is she went overboard :( I stopped paying attention on the fourteenth sketch.

Brush

I can imagine. Candle PMed me several times with gigs Rarity wanted me to go to. In costume, of course. I was considering of saying yes, as long as you're there. Sometime close to winter, I think. She wasn't very clear.

What do you think we should do to as on the Crystal Empire convention? Euryala and Blazen? You'll make a great Euryala, I'm sure.

MasterOfThisAstra

Fleetfoot might be a little angry of us if we do :) Maybe Loki Echo? I know they are villains, but maybe they'll get reformed? (Also, we can be the good version of them for the convention?)

Brush

Dark is grumbling at me to stop chatting. She also says hi. That means I probably have about five minutes left.

Brush

Tell her to learn to write properly and to leave us alone!

MasterOfThisAstra

Wow! Such a meaniepants! :P

Brush

Tell her I'll get Jade to fail all her stories!

What exactly are you saving Equestria from? Or you can't tell me.

MasterOfThisAstra

I'm not exactly sure. It's usually like that with these things. We just go somewhere and then find out what the problem is. Most often it's something relatively harmless. I know that the girls aren't very worried.

To be honest there's been more talk about your sister and the site than you. (And about Lyra, but I promised not to talk about that!) A lot of them are worried what could have happened while Paint was gone. Dark even did some magic spell to be sure she isn't a changeling (she wasn't). Still a bit strange that this should happen so soon after CEO's incident. And I can tell you that wasn't as simple as the official version put it. (Your sister has a total crush on him, by the way.)

Brush

I know... about both, my family's connected so I heard a few things. And sis was never good at hiding things from me. I can only imagine what CEO is going through. I expect he's used to the attention, though, being one of two ace Wonderbolts and all. Also he has his career to think of.

MasterOfThisAstra

Well I think it's cute! I'm just worried about the first colt dares ask Paint out. Whoever it is after CEO he'll seem like a total let down.

Brush

Wow! I'm quoting this to sis when I go see her. You're vicious sometimes, you know?

MasterOfThisAstra

Brush has been banished to a demonic dimension of demons! She cannot write to you right now!

Brush

Hey, Dark. You still can't write.

Good luck saving Equestria again.

P.S. How's the centaur dating going?

MasterOfThisAstra

I see... oh well. Better luck next time.

And I'm sorry, but this is me of those time.

Sorry, but I cannot make heads or tails fo this one.

Still, another happy couple on their way to the altar! Though between the dragon out of nowhere and Paint's prolonged disappearance, I can't help but wonder if sonething screwy's going on with time and space. Well, I suppose that's what the Bearers are for.

[Malandy]

More relationship developments! YAY!

Typos:

Send a line (if) you can.

got her to (make ?) wedding clothes

the first colt (that) dares ask Paint out.

[viclouiis]

8119228 Oh, I get that. But I am easily intimidated, haha.

[Botched Lobotomy]

Still a bit strange that this should happen so soon after CEO's incident. And I can tell you that wasn't as simple as the official version put it.

I feel pike there's some overarching narrative (bigger than the in-site story arcs) going on... From now on I shall be paying very close attention to the out-of-the-ordinary IRL shenanigans.
Also, you do have a gift for adorable ships, Lise.

[meerkat8472]

Centaur dating? What is he on about?

[howard035]

Great to see more Brush and Mota. Sounds like the Mane 6 are on a Friendship​ Ma mission again. Can't wait for the courtship party!

[Meta Four]

8127817 DarkSparkle keeps writing and submitting centaur fics (half-human, half-pony hybrids I presume) to the website. And she even submitted one to that official shipping contest. There are very few other ponies who are interested in this subgenre—so Dark's continued interest would easily lead to other users joking that she's attracted to centaurs.

[meerkat8472]

8128205 I see. Rather unexpected though, wasn't Tirek a centaur?

[redmar]

I wonder where this goes and I'm looking forward to the announcement of their relationship.

[The Great Derpsby]

8128205
8128291
Yes. Considering she's one of the few nightlings who've met an actual human, had a crush on a human, and had that long-distance relationship with the human crumble, she's also possibly more hurt by MotA's comment than he realises.

[AyanamiRei]

I'm wondering...perhaps the reason Brush was so exhausted, was she went to a different world (Like EQG) that runs on a faster timeline. Just a guess though!

Still curious as to about who the other users on the site are! Like is my guess for who Feather is totally wrong, and if so who else could it possibly be, unless it's an OC?

Also, what has Discord been up to? I mean normally you can't even go a week without him being attached to Fluttershy, and let's not forget the last time she got all buddy buddy with someone.
