Fluttershy's Peaceful Morning (2/3)
12/29/11(Thu)21:51 No.32766453She tilted her head, allowing the carrot stubs to fall onto the compost pile. The dust from the dustpan made her nose itch. "aaah," she said, turning back toward the house. "aaah," she continued, as she let the dustpan drop from her mouth.
"aaaah-choo!" she squeaked, then took a deep breath, and fluffed her wings.
"Salud!" said an accented voice.
"Oh!" squeaked Fluttershy, shying backward. "Um, hello there."
Two burros stood at the gate. The taller of the two wore a sombrero and serape. "Excuse me, señorita," he said, "I was told in town that you provide grooming services."
The shorter of the two had a grey coat, and wore a fancy red dress trimmed in black. She set down the pet carrier, and with the same melodious accent said, "Our chinchilla was playing in the mud."
Fluttershy smiled. "The poor thing, I completely understand. What's its name?"
"She is Manzanita," said the jack, "Little apple."
Fluttershy leaned down to peer into the pet carrier. "Hello, Manzanita," she cooed. |
