Twenty-Fifth Flutter [Video/Action for Ecruteak.]

[3_butterflies]

[The Video turns on because during Fluttershy's sleep-coma, several of her Pokemon have decided to watch over her things. Her Flaafy had been cleaning up the Pokegear and accidentally turned it on. All looks well, as Fluttershy sleeps on a bed in the background...

... and then suddenly sits up right with a yelp.]

Eeeeeeek!

[With that high-pitched yet very silent yell, she jumps out of bed, heads to the window -]

I'm late, I'm late, I'm l -

[And she... JUMPS OUT THE WINDOW. Someone has forgotten she doesn't have wings. Fortunately, they were on the first floor. So when Flaafy, with the Pokegear, heads t the window to look out and see the damage, you all get to see Fluttershy with her body face down, flat on the ground. Ow.]

[Vigorous nodding!!!]

Yes, he was saved, everything's okay. You found the real Cadence, and their love for each other was so strong, it blasted all the Changelings away... it was absolutely amazing!

[Action]

[friendyousohard]

That's wonderful! So everything turned out okay in the end, at least.

[Looks thoughtful.] So, when you say it blasted them away, you mean... something like the Elements? Only with love instead of Friendship?

[Action]

[3_butterflies]

That's right. Shining Armor and Cadance really love each other... Their love is as deep as our friendship.

[Action]

[friendyousohard]

That's wonderful. I can't think of any two ponies more suited to each other than those two. I couldn't have picked out a better match for him myself.

... Granted, that's at least partly because love really isn't my specialty, but still.

[Action]

[3_butterflies]

Yeah... you don't have to worry. Bad things will happen to us over the year... but each and every time, we rely on each other, and everything turns out for the best. So there's no need to worry.

[Action]

[friendyousohard]

I'll keep that in mind. All's well that ends well, right?

[Action]

[She makes a 'mm-hmm' noise, snuggling her sheep. Happy Flutters is happy.]

I'm sorry if I kept you back from doing anything... With the play over, we can do whatever you want now, right...?

[Action]

[friendyousohard]

Don't worry, I wasn't planning on going anywhere anyway. Right now the most important thing is training my Pokemon so that I can take on the gyms, and I can do that here in Ecruteak just as well as anywhere else.

[Action]

[3_butterflies]

[She pauses, and then nods.]

And I... I-I want to train too. I want to... help fight.

[She was hardly able to help kick changeling butt. That needs to change.]

[Action]

[friendyousohard]

[She just... stops and stares at her for a few moments, stunned by what she just heard. Fluttershy wants to fight?]

You're... Fluttershy, are you sure about that? I mean, don't get me wrong, I'd love to have you by my side but... I know how much you hate fighting.

[Action]

[3_butterflies]

[Even Flaafy looks up at her, 'whaaaat even.']

I still don't like fighting, but... I need to help you. I can't just keep running away and hiding. I want to protect my friends!

[Action]

[friendyousohard]

Fluttershy...

[Knowing how timid and passive her friend is, that's really a touching statement. Twilight reaches out and rests a hand over one of hers, with a decisive nod.]

Alright then. I'll help you all I can, and we'll do this together.
