1.
>It's your first winter in Equestria.
-
2.
>Fortunately you aren't spending it alone.
-
3.
>You're spending it with your roommate, an odd pony named Floor Bored.
-
4.
>You met her in your building, you would catch her on rare occasions late at night in the early morning hours.
-
5.
>At first it was occasional awkward hellos and over time became something more.
-
6.
>Now you are celebrating what ponies call "Hearths Warming Eve" with her.
-
7.
>It's remarkable how similar to Christmas their holiday is.
-
8.
>But it's not quite the same...
-
9.
>You think to yourself on the couch, your gaze is fixed on the window watching the snow gently fall.
-
10.
>You feel a weight plop down on the other end of the couch.
-
11.
>"We shoulda got more ornaments..."
-
12.
>You look at the Chri- err... Hearths warming tree.
-
13.
>It was a decrepit tree you and Floor stole from the reject heap at the tree lot.
-
14.
>Probably should have gone for a nicer one if you were just going to steal one, but forethought has never been your forte, and apparently not Floor's either.
-
15.
>You and Floor covered it in cheap glass ball ornaments, bit's of tin foil and paper chains.
-
16.
>"Looks fine to me" you reply.
-
17.
>It was a nice looking tree, all things considered.
-
18.
>You turn your gaze back towards the window, trying to figure out what's missing...
-
19.
>"OH YEAH!"
-
20.
>Your revelation has spooked your roommate over the arm of the couch and onto the Floor.
-
21.
>"What the hell was that Anon?!" she shouts popping back up from the floor.
-
22.
>"Sorry Floor, I just felt like something was missing and just realized what it was"
-
23.
>"I thought you said it looks fine." She says looking back at the tree.
-
24.
>"No from the tree, from this holiday" You reply as you walk to the closet to find the missing piece.
-
25.
>You pull out a box and set it in front of the couch before sitting down once again.
-
26.
>Floor looks into the box as you rummage through it.
-
27.
>"We're missing DVDs?" she asks.
-
28.
>"We're missing Holiday specials!" You excitedly exclaim as you pull out one out.
-
29.
>The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus.
-
30.
>One of your favorites.
-
31.
>You excitedly pop it the DVD player and sit back down.
-
32.
>You look to Floor.
-
33.
>She looks confused.
-
34.
>"Wh-what is this?" She asks.
-
35.
>"A Christmas special" you reply.
-
36.
>That didn't seem to answer anything for her but she watches it anyway.
-
37.
>Once the song about immortality starts she really gets into it.
-
38.
>Halfway through she is laying across you lap like a dog, still watching.
-
39.
>Instinctively you find yourself stroking her like one (She does kinda smell like one).
-
40.
>She seems to enjoy it, or at least be more interested in the movie to care.
-
41.
>When it's over she slides off you lap for you to pick another one.
-
42.
>"Your pick now Floor" you say sliding the box over to her.
-
43.
>She rummages through the box examining each DVD cover intently before moving onto the next.
-
44.
>She eventually picks one out, Rudolph's Shiny New Year.
-
45.
>"I loved that one when I was a kid" you say.
-
46.
>You start it up and sit back down.
-
47.
>"Huh... There he is again..." Floor says.
-
48.
>"Who?" You ask.
-
49.
>"That guy with the beard" she answers.
-
50.
>"Santa?"
-
51.
>"Yeah, is he part of your holiday?" She asks.
-
52.
>You never really thought about how Santa would be perceived by ponies.
-
53.
>"Isn't there a pony who flies around Equestria and deliver presents?" you ask.
-
54.
>Floor shakes her head.
-
55.
>"There are the Gift Givers of the Grove, but they just help ponies with getting gifts for each other."
-
56.
>Huh.
-
57.
>Ponies have DVD players perfectly compatible with your DVDs, but different Holiday gift oriented entities.
-
58.
>Weird.
-
59.
>"So what does this Santa do in your world?" Floor asks.
-
60.
>"Oh he doesn't actually exi-" wait a minute...
-
61.
>She doesn't need to know that.
-
62.
>In fact...
-
63.
>"Well" you start, "Santa is a man who flies around the world in a single night, delivering presents to every person who has been good."
-
64.
>"How does he know who has been good or not?" she asks.
-
65.
>"He's got a crystal snowball, and can see everything you do."
-
66.
>Floor suddenly get nervous.
-
67.
>"Umm... is uhh... is... you know... is that..?
-
68.
>Silly pony
-
69.
>"Of course he gives you your privacy when you need it, he just wants to be sure your being a good person."
-
70.
>Floor lets out a sigh of relief.
-
71.
>"You also have to write him a letter telling him what you want for Christmas." you continue.
-
72.
>"Wait... why? Can't you just tell him while he's watching?"
-
73.
>Uh oh, plot hole.
-
74.
>"He uh... likes getting letters, yeah. I mean you like getting letters, don't you?"
-
75.
>"Y-yeah, I love getting them, I totally get that. Hahaha" She says nervously.
-
76.
>"Wait... did you send him a letter?" she asks.
-
77.
>"Of course I did, pretty sure he can get to Equestria no problem"
-
78.
>Thankfully she doesn't stop to think about how you got a letter mailed from Equestria to earth.
-
79.
>"I also don't see why he can't bring you something too."
-
80.
>Floor's ears perk up.
-
81.
>"S-something for me?!"
-
82.
>"Of course, you've been a good pony!"
-
83.
>She blushes.
-
84.
>You got her pretty nice gift.
-
85.
>You were just gonna to give them to her on Hearths Warming day but this will be more fun.
-
86.
>You got her some really nice upgrades for her computer.
-
87.
>You can split them into parts from Santa and parts from you no problem.
-
88.
>The two of you continue watching Christmas specials into the night.
-
89.
>She seems to really like the Rudolph ones.
-
90.
>You're pretty sure Floor has developed a crush on him.
-
91.
>At one point she called Clarice a "Fucking Stacy"
-
92.
>She eventually falls asleep in your lap.
-
93.
>It's show time.
-
94.
>You grab a red sweater, two pillows and a red stocking hat.
-
95.
>You cover you face with stuffing from one pillow and use the rest to line your sweater and hat.
-
96.
>The other pillow goes right under the sweater and the belt goes on over it to keep it up there.
-
97.
>You go to the bathroom to see how you look.
-
98.
>You probably should have thought this out more.
-
99.
>No matter, you'll just turn off the lights and hope the darkness will conceal your shoddy work.
-
100.
>You grab your gifts and head for the living room.
-
101.
>Floor is still sleeping on the couch.
-
102.
>You bump into the couch.
-
103.
>Nothing.
-
104.
>You bump a bit harder.
-
105.
>She snorts and scratches herself.
-
106.
>You slam into the couch at full force, knocking Floor to the floor.
-
107.
>"Huh... wuh..." She gets up and looks around.
-
108.
>"Oh, I'm sorry there miss Floor Bored, I didn't meant to disturb you."
-
109.
>"What the fuck is-" Her eyes widen.
-
110.
>"I'm here with Anon's gifts! and not to mention something special for you too! Ho Ho Ho!"
-
111.
>"You brought me a gift?" She asks.
-
112.
>"Of course I did! And I know exactly what you need!"
-
113.
>You begin to produce the gift.
-
114.
>"You brought me a gift for Anon?"
-
115.
>"Why of course I-" wait, what did she say?
-
116.
>"I saw Anon got me a video card for my computer..." Her eyes widen in panic "I didn't mean to peak! I just sorta found it, Honest!"
-
117.
>She looks down towards the ground.
-
118.
>"I saw it and I just felt terrible..."
-
119.
>She starts to tear up.
-
120.
>"He probably spent so much bits and I couldn't get him anything..."
-
121.
>"Oh Floor..."
-
122.
>You kneel down beside the pony and hug her.
-
123.
Tap Tap Tap.
-
124.
>You look to the window.
-
125.
>Is that a reindeer?
-
126.
>You're on the 5th floor, how the fuck is a reindeer standing outside the window?
-
127.
>"The Gift Givers are here too!" Floor says.
-
128.
>Floor rushes over and opens up the window and in fly three reindeer.
-
129.
>"Oh Santa! glad we caught you!" The old blue one says giving you a wink.
-
130.
>"You were in such a rush you forgot Floor Bored's gift for Anon!" says the small yellow one giving you an expertly wrapped present.
-
131.
>"You know each other?!" Floor asks.
-
132.
>"Of course we do!" Replies the pink one. "Prancer is my cousin!"
-
133.
>"Anon has to see this!" Floor says as she picks herself off the ground.
-
134.
>"Eh um, best not wake him dear." The blue one says blocking Floor's path.
-
135.
>"The uh... uh..." She's trying to make an excuse.
-
136.
>"I accidentally knocked him out getting in here" You say, hoping you don't need to elaborate.
-
137.
>Floor seems to buy it.
-
138.
>"You are pretty clumsy." she says.
-
139.
>"Ho Ho Ho" you laugh it off.
-
140.
>"Well dear Floor, here you are" You hand her gift to you to her.
-
141.
>You're genuinely curious as to what it could be.
-
142.
>"Well Santa, we better get going!" The small reindeer says.
-
143.
>"Oh uh, yeah! Got a lot of gifts to deliver."
-
144.
>Uhh... how is this going to work...
-
145.
>The pink one flies out first.
-
146.
>"Hop on!" she says from outside.
-
147.
>You attempt to do just that and grab onto her horns trying to keep yourself from falling off.
-
148.
>"Aaaaah... oh! uh he he... ahem..." She blushes fiercely.
-
149.
>Did you just...
-
150.
>Hooved animals are weird.
-
151.
>The other two emerge from the window followed by Floor as she sticks her head and waves goodbye as the four of you take off.
-
152.
>"So uhh... what's the plan now?" You ask as the reindeer fly around to the other side of the building.
-
153.
>"Just a moment dear" The old one says.
-
154.
>They circle around back to your window.
-
155.
>They look to be sure Floor closed the window.
-
156.
>"Umm.. by the way.. you wouldn't happen to have any relatives here would you?" the pink one asks.
-
157.
>"Bori!" The yellow scolds.
-
158.
>"I had to ask..." The pink one says quietly.
-
159.
>"Ready Anon?" The blue one asks.
-
160.
>Ready for wha-"
-
161.
POP... POP
-
162.
>"-at"
-
163.
>Oh...
-
164.
>you're in your room, on your bed.
-
165.
>Reindeer have magic apparently.
-
166.
>Equestria is weird.
-
167.
>You disrobe yourself of your disguise and go to sleep.
-
168.
>That was a pretty tiring experience
-
169.
The next morning
-
170.
>"Anon! Anon! Anon! Wake up!"
-
171.
>Floor is pushing on your chest with her hooves like a dog.
-
172.
>You honestly wouldn't be surprised if she started licking your face.
-
173.
>Not that you would mind.
-
174.
>You get up and follow an excited Floor into the living room.
-
175.
>The tree looks a lot better this morning.
-
176.
>She excitedly explains the events that unfolded last.
-
177.
>"And after that they left!"
-
178.
>"Oh really?" you reply.
-
179.
>"Yeah! and also between you and me..." She looks around before leaning in.
-
180.
>"I think Santa and Bori are totally fucking" she whispers.
-
181.
>The idea of Santa fucking is weird to you.
-
182.
>You go and grab your present for Floor and give it her.
-
183.
>You would never have guessed she had already seen it by how excited she was when she opened it.
-
184.
>Her excitement only intensifies as she grabs her present to you with her mouth from under the tree.
-
185.
>She looks both anxious and hopeful as she gives you the gift.
-
186.
>even more so as you open it.
-
187.
>Holy shit..
-
188.
>"Do you like it?" she asks, dying to know the answer.
-
189.
>"Floor I... I love it! It's perfect! Thank you so much."
-
190.
>It is a truly amazing gift.
-
191.
>You give the mare a great big hug.
-
192.
>She sniffles as you start to feel wet spots forming on your shoulder.
-
193.
>You pull away and see how happy she is that you loved her gift.
-
194.
>Your holidays may have different characters but their messages are exactly the same.
-
195.
>"Come on let's watch more Rudolph, and we can skip the parts with that skank Clarice."
-
196.
>Floor follows you to the couch and lays across you lap as Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer plays on the TV.
-
197.
>It's good to know the spirit of the holiday is also here in Equestria too.
-
198.
