Big Macintosh turned off the macadam road and parked his truck in front of Fluttershy's cottage which was also the home of the Ponyville Animal Shelter and Instructional School. He'd come out today to return a large soup tureen that Granny had borrowed for a celebration at Sweet Apple Acres.
Picking up the satchel with the tureen in it the red stallion started to open the driver side door when he noticed a large brown bear sitting a few feet away. Lowering the window on his side Big Mac looked at the bear for a moment. The bear returned the stare. Finally the earth pony spoke.
"Uh. R' ya Harry?"
To Big Mac's surprise the bear nodded his head, so continuing this line inquiry the stallion asked.
"Um, I'm here ta see Miss Fluttershy. Is she up at her cottage?"
The bear shook its head. "Um, is nearby?" the bear nodded his head. "Can ya lead me ta her?"
The bear slowly rose to its paws and then turned toward an adjoining meadow. As it did the bear made a come with me gesture with a front paw since this direction was not leading toward the cottage Big Mac left the tureen in the truck. No need to be lugging it through the woods.
The big bear slowly moseyed across the meadow with Big Mac following a few feet back. A couple of times the bear looked back over its shoulder as if confirming the stallion was still following. Upon reaching a nearby cluster of trees the bear came to a stop and sat down under one of them.
The stallion looked around and saw no sign of the mare. He was beginning to think that maybe the bear hadn't understood anything he'd said when suddenly from the branches above him there dropped down to almost eye level a blur of chiffon yellow, pink, and black. With an upside down grin on her face Fluttershy looked at the stallion and spoke.
"Hi Big Mac. How are doing today? What brings out to the cottage today?" The mare was currently in her naga form. As his wedding gift to her Discord had bestowed some of his chaos magic to his wife-to-be. With time the mare had started experimenting it. Apparently she'd found the naga form to be very interesting. Link, Link
In this form the garment she was only wearing was a black bikini top. With some effort Big Mac looked the mare in the eyes. "Um, uh, I'm ah here ta return the soup tureen we borrowed from ya."
Fluttershy nodded her head. "Oh thank you! I will need it for the open house this Friday night!"
"Um. Open house?" The stallion said.
"Oh yes! We had so much success at the recent County Fair Link, Link, and, uh ponies had so many questions we're going to have, um an open house. That way ponies can come out see what we do here for the community. There's going to be, um food, uh tours, lectures, and even some demonstrations. Your sister, uh Applebloom will be helping with that! And everypony that comes out will be entered into a drawing to win a prize! Oh doesn't that sound like fun?"
The stallion looked confused. "Prizes?"
Fluttershy smiled. "Yep some will be little things like calenders that were made for the shelter Link, Link"
The mare slowly started swinging in a side-to-side motion like the arm of a pendulum clock. This resulted in her mane and other parts of her body to sway and swing more than other parts. Only with great effort did the stallion maintain eye contact. Although in the back of his mind he had to commend Miss Rarity for designing a bikini top that held on to its contents in these circumstances. As she swung back and forth she continued to speak.
"But, um the grand prize will be chance for one pony to enroll in some of the classes here free charge!" She smiled at Big Mac. "Anypony can enter."
Fortunately Big Mac's already bright red coat so it hid the blush on his face.
This was one of the drawings I started during my recent Picarto stream. The theme that evening was magical beings, and this is the story that popped into my head as I was working on the piece.
