Epilogue

What the heck? The door’s locked!

You stand outside the door of your own house, expecting your room-mate to be in. He’s usually home by lunch, since he only does the early morning shift at the post office, and he’s not said a word to you about doing overtime… no matter, you have a spare key.

Several hours later, you’re finally ready for your date; properly washed and cleaned (making extra sure to get out any dirt you may have missed last time) and ready to spend the evening with your perfect, peaceful pegasus. And just when you were about to leave, who should walk in other than a beaten, yet oddly upbeat, male unicorn.

“About time you got back,” you say, “I was just about to leave on a date!”

“Sorry about that, I just got back from a date myself.” he replies.

“Really?” you found it improbable, yet cool, how you both somehow managed to find a special somepony on the same day, “Tell me all about it later, once I get back, I don’t wanna be late for this.”

It is at this point you both notice something unusual about the other. Your unicorn room-mate goes first;

“How did you suddenly meet a girl pony anyway?”

“Don’t ask. Where did you get the black eye from?”

“Don’t ask.”

Love the story! Please make more; I love second-person romance stories, and I love Fluttershy, so this was perfect! :yay:

I'm guessing he went out with :rainbowdetermined2:

Some are edited stright from the show (I edited the pic with fluttershy covered in dirt myself, from an episode screenshot I took), while others are vectors from the free-to-all MLP Vectorclub on DeviantArt.

And no, the one who was with Rainbow Dash was a pegasus, remember? The room mate's a unicorn, and you'll see who he dates in a future fic!

Thank you for your views on the story, I know it's hard to come across a 2nd person fic where "you" are female in it, but I'm glad you still think it's a good read either way!
By the way, I know someone called TheGentlemanCreeper (he's on my Watching list on my profile) and he made a female 2nd person fic with Applejack as the love interest. It's called Swing, I'd recommend it! :ajsmug:

Read it all the way though now. Love the epilogue! Thanks for the recommendation! I'll read it!

...Wait a second...

How do you know that I like Applejack? DX

101303
Haha, I didn't! But something tells me you'll like it - I did!
Thanks again for reading!

And the protagonist is also a pegasus...

Okay, if there is a boombox anywhere in the story, I'll get suspicious...

... I've been waiting for this, comrade, and you have not failed me! Love your writing style. Keep it up, comrade, for the Motherland? :fluttershysad:

end of it cooome ooooon :raritydespair:, also i see what you did there at the end. :trollestia:

Dude, I've wanted this kind of fanfic, with Fluttershy, for, like, EVER.

Thank you SO MUCH.

One Of The Best Stories I Ever Read

108048
Not quite, remember Feeling Pinkie Keen? Pinkie has a bath that I can assume she uses herself (I wouldn't imagine the Cakes helping her do something that private) and she claims to brush her teeth very often. The ponies can reach easily parts of their bodies that normal horses can't (See Rainbow Dash with her hooves behind her head when she relaxes/does stretches in Fall Weather Friends, among many other examples) so it's probably not that hard to rub some soap on your hooves and clean yourself that way.
TL;DR: dexterous hooves and there's examples in the show.

Very nice read! Not too fond of the way it just kinda ended like that, but it was very fun and interesting to read. Almost no mistakes that I can see, and the story is very good, I read it all the way through in one sitting. (Not that it was all that long) Keep up the good work! :ajsmug:

108713
Thanks, I try to keep them short and sweet, I doubt you'll ever see a fic that's over 10,000 words from me.

108098 h-uh. Didn't notice that before. Thanks for the explanation :D

Excellente, I think I have a couple of stars around here somewhere. Ah! I'm sure Mario won't mind! Here have 5 of his stars!

I find it interesting how you take an absolutely bland pony (male earth pony, that's it) and not only make him interesting, but believable. That takes some talent that I am truly envious of!

125790 I got my stars from Luna! :derpytongue2:

129471 As long as you left both the Ursa alone, that would be fine... Oh and don't touch Draco, or Columba... I need those.

I just realized this chapter was connected to More Than Buddies. You, sir, have just become one of my favorite writers.:pinkiehappy:

omg so much cute... need another story nao :flutterrage:

101105

Heh, it was actually ditzy. that's cool that the stories intersect like that.

I now have a cave fetish.

Ahhhhh After reading this epilogue I see how it connects with the other one in " More than just Buddies " :trollestia:
Besides that point, Another great story and lots of D'AWWW's to be had during the crying scene :pinkiesad2:

*reads ending* :pinkiegasp: I see what you did there! :rainbowlaugh:

Good theory, but no. Fluttershy's guy asked the Spa staff to join him in their tub, and since he wasn't so bad he just got a slap and a warning. The big drunk guy in Lover's Choice is an unrelated incident, who got thrown out of the spa entirely.

278313

ok, i just thought that since some of your stories are kinda related,

278326
Some are, yeah. You'll definately be seeing some weaving in the future. For example, take the two unicorns who exit the herbal bath room at the beginning of Lover's Choice...

Why did you have to end this story, for some reason I find it very difficult to find stories that involve Fluttershy in second person... :fluttercry:

You sir are the best, simply the best! :heart::pinkiehappy::ajsmug::derpytongue2:

I really love this story, not only because it's written in first person, but mostly because it's just so adorable and cute :)

I allso really love how this relatively tough main character becomes a cute, goofy love fool :3

now if you will excuse me, I'm new here, and i have a favourite / like button to find :p

The gray star next to the fic's title. Click it to fave.

316930 thanks man :D i gave up in frustration before, but luckily bookmarked the link :3

I first found out about Crowley by a friend suggesting the Apple Jack story. I had liked the story and style in that fic, but I find this one to be even better. Second person is such a fun way to read stories and I found the flow and literary elements really shined in this fiction. Fluttershy has always been my favorite pony and it was very interesting to see the darker side of caring for so many animals and being dependent by many. Thanks for the high quality fiction. :raritywink:

moar! :flutterrage: ... oh um if it is not too much trouble :fluttershysad:

Please sir, can we have some more of this fine story?

101145 when? I cant wait!

As in who's the unicorn room-mate dating? I've already wrote the fic, check More Than Buddies. :derpytongue2:

637617 no the whole fluttershy fic

Yay, Fluttershy best pony. :twilightsmile: I loved it I want more Plweeeze make a sequel like you did for your Rainbow Dash one I would love to see how the date went with Fluttershy. :duck:

great fic crowley :did you talk to the dead?: als on chapter 5 it says "you guess your roomate is making so breakfast himself" i dont recal him say something 'bout his roommate before so either it was the unicorn or maybe its a mistake or maybe butterscotch was in fluttershys house? anyway, is derpy the unicorns date?:derpytongue2:

I LOVE how you connect these fics together
