02/05/11(Sat)13:22 No.23213060Little Derpy sits besides her letter box awaiting the delivery of her mail. She watches the passing ponies making their rounds here and there. Nodding and smiling to anyone who she sees while she waits. A few nod back her way, some even take the time to greet her with her cutie mark name. She smiles to herself, knowing the second name many have given her behind her back. Little do they know that she thinks "Derpy" is cute in itself, and never thought bad of the nickname. More nod and pass and she waits, ever cheerful. She looks over to her letter box, it's red flag raised proudly with it's notification that a letter is within and awaiting pick-up. She smiles at the flag, knowing the carrier will soon arrive to make the switch, lower her flag, and in this act make her day complete. She sees the clock in the distant square nearing the final delivery deadline, looks to her mailbox, and to the now empty road. Derpy then gets up and walks to her mailbox, opening the door and seeing the lone letter inside. She takes the letter and with a careful tap of her hoof, lowers the flag. She walks to her mail bag, opens the flap for pick-up and sets the letter inside. Opening the other saddlebag, she takes a letter from the delivery side and returns to the open box, placing it within. Derpy closes the mailbox door, smiles with pride, re-opens the box and takes her delivered letter. With her mail bags and her own mail, she makes her way home to have a muffin and read her letter. |
