>Be Anon
-
>Lonely, got some spare cash from overtime you put in last week
-
>Walking home from work, it's not that far
-
>Walking by the pet shelter
-
>Maybe a dog or something would help the dating situation, girls like dogs
-
>Girls. You like girls
-
>And going on dates
-
>Shelter is dimly lit shithole, poster of cute puppy on the wall a more apt advertisement for preemptive euthanasia than adoption
-
>4/10 blonde at the desk, looks like a voulenteeer
-
>"Oh, Hello! Looking to adopt"
-
>No, You are here to drink deep of the scent of dying animal
-
"I am, what do you have?"
-
>"Come on back!"
-
>Back room smells like dogcat pissshit, might have cleaned it in the last couple of years
-
>"Feel free to look around" Says volunteer femanon
-
>A deeper pit of despair you have never seen
-
>Dogs all shivering
-
>Cats all hissing at you
-
>Keep walking further back
-
>See the most fucked up looking bright red dog on earth
-
>Adopting Clifford would certainly be a conversation starter for all those parties you host
-
>Dog looks at you
-
>That shit is not a dog, looks more like a small brightly colored horse
-
-
>It unsteadily gets to it's legs and walks the pace to the chainlink wall
-
>Damn thing is about four feet tall at the shoulder, looking at you with fucking huge green eyes
-
>He's a mess, his dusty yellow mane shaggy, tangled and looking stained with something
-
>His red coat is tangled and matted
-
>His hooves look brown with mud and you don't want to know what else.
-
>"Oh, that poor thing" Femanon says "He was just dropped off here a month ago, between you and me it's almost time for E-U-T-H-E-N-A-S-S-I-A"
-
>Bint is spelling like the damn thing can understand words anyway
-
>The pony shivers, the motion making a large green apple shape clear on his hip
-
>He's cute in a disgusting, dirty, pathetic sort of way
-
>He might just do, looks like he could carry groceries for you or whatever, isn't growling, just starting at you
-
"How much?"
-
-
>Femanon prattles on about registration fees
-
>Long story short, you buy the freakiest second hand dog in the city
-
>Good going Anon, you are the best at shopping
-
>Walk back into the storage area with femanon, she unlocks the cage
-
>Pony-thing is sitting in the back corner, still shivering
-
>"It's time to go home with your new daddy, cutie!"
-
>You seriously can't stand that "pet daddy" shit
-
>Femanon walking closer to the shivering pony and ties a some rope around its' neck
-
>Damn, you'll need to buy it a collar and everything
-
>Pony looks around for a moment, looking ready to run for it's life as femanon hands you the rope
-
>You give it a soft tug and the pony stands, turning quickly and picking up a ragged, filthy looking you don't even know what. A teddy bear or something
-
>"Oh, he doesn't go anywhere without that"
-
>Gross, but whatever
-
>You start leaving the area, ponything follows you easily enough, shaking but keeping pace with you.
-
>Score, a pre-leash-trained pet.
-
-
>The smog-stained air still smells better than the deathpit.
-
>Ponything sways his short, tangled, gross tail in something like a wag, gross teddybeast in his jaws still
-
"Well... uh, home's not far, and there's a petstore we can stop at"
-
>Damn, now you're talking to it like it can understand words.
-
>No, not it, it's a boy ponything, you think.
-
>You start off down the street, the ponybeast keeps pace, even though this is the most he's walked in a month
-
>Actually he's kind of a trooper in his own filthy, gross way
-
>Trooper might be a good name
-
>Get to "Smallest Pet Shop"
-
>You have no idea why they call it that, damn thing is in an old Petsmart.
-
>Go inside, get hate-glares from cash-slaves
-
"Umm... do you have stuff for ponies?"
-
>Cash-slave points you to the back corner and goes back to playing farmville
-
>Find some pony food and salt licks, apperently having small colorful house-equines is a niche market
-
>Even find a nice collar for Trooper, and a leash to go with it
-
>Even manage to find a saddlebag the right size for him
-
>What, you're not carrying everything when you have a miniature pack horse
-
>Pick up some pony-wash and food bowls on your way out
-
>Cash-slave rings everything up while begging her friends to water her virtual plants
-
-
>Trooper is wearing his bag and carrying most of your purchases, still on the rope
-
>Not going to put his collar on until he gets a bath or something
-
>Walks home with you without leaving your side or falling behind
-
>Return to shithole apartment building
-
>Enter just barely not shithole apartment and take off Trooper's saddlebag with some difficulty, taking out the pony wash
-
>Now that you're inside, you notice Trooper smells like dogcat pissshit
-
>Use the rope to lead Trooper into your cramped bathroom and take the ponywash with you
-
>Lock door and remove the rope, starting the shower on the hottest setting, lukewarm
-
>Trooper looks suspiciously at the shower as you gently corral him in; setting down his ragbeast on the toilet cover, the pony startles under the water for a moment before relaxing, sitting on his haunches. The water coming off him is already a shit-brown.
-
>Trooper seems to slowly relax as you pour the ponywash down his back and in his mane, avoiding his freaky-huge eyes
-
>Work the ponywash into his tangled mane, the big thing twitching and making a soft whinny as you tug on the knots
-
>You slow down, still trying to work out the tangles and deciding only a trimmer can fix this.
-
>Work the soap into his coat, rubbing his belly and sides gently, the pony colder than you would expect of an animal and his ribs easy to feel
-
>Trooper has earned his name, even in the face of malnutrition
-
>Do Trooper's tail, finding it equally tangled and unruly
-
>After half an hour, the ponybeast smells like soap instead of death.
-
>Shut off the shower and towel him off
-
>Trooper starts shivering as you dry off his chest and nearly visible ribs
-
>Open bathroom door and get an old blanket from your room
-
-
>Find Trooper in the bathroom, laying on his belly with his ragbeast between his forelegs
-
>Drape the blanket over him and dig out your beard trimmer
-
>Clip on the longest head and start it up
-
>Trooper twitches and looks up at the source of the noise, holding his ragthing closer
-
>It's cute in a gross way, you don't even want to know what that thing has soaked in over the past month, you'll throw it away tonight
-
>You sit next to your tiny horse and start to trim his mane
-
>Trooper looks ready to run, but stays still as you take out all the knots, leaving his mane a mostly uniform short-ish length
-
>You do the same to his tail
-
>Now he looks like a tiny warhorse or something
-
>Girls will love a tiny brightly colored warhorse, it's feminine yet masculine. You'll be complex
-
>Take out the scissors and take out the worst of the coat tangles
-
>Trooper now looks patchy but dignified
-
>You give him a little pet and leave, setting his bowls in the kitchen corner and filling them with food and water
-
>You whistle
-
>Okay, you can't whistle, you sort of blow air
-
>Trooper gets the message and trots over to you, his newly-clean hooves a flat yellow
-
>You have a sensibly colored technicolor tiny house-horse, score a second time
-
>Trooper picks up the pace when he sees the food, eating everything in under a minute and lapping up the water in twice the time
-
>You leave him and find his gross ragbeast
-
>There it is, in the bathroom
-
>You pick it up with two fingers and start toward the trash can
-
-
>Trooper rams your hip with his head and starts whining, forehooves pawing at you gently, eyes locked on the ragthing
-
"Trooper, this thing is disgusting, I'm throwing it away and getting you a new one"
-
>There you are, talking to it again
-
>Push past him and drop the offending cloth filth-sponge in the trashcan, Trooper pawing at your thighs and whining the whole time
-
>He starts nuzzling at the trashcan afterwards, still whining
-
>Go and get his collar while he's busy
-
-
>Clip his collar on, making sure it's not going to fall off but loose enough not to choke your mighty tiny warhorse
-
>It's a dark brown, kind of a nice color on Trooper you think
-
>He's still trying to get the trash open
-
"Trooper, you don't go into the trash"
-
>You say this and tug on his collar, he whinnies again and whines, lowering his head and flattening his ears
-
>You let him go, and he doesn't go back to digging in the trash
-
"Good boy"
-
>For his obedience, he gets an earrub
-
>Walk over to your couch and flip on the television
-
>Well, it's a few feet away, you sort of shuffle a yard and sit.
-
>You pat the seat next to you.
-
>Trooper jumps up and sits down next to you, curling up and looking tired
-
>Watch television with your ponybeast, petting his side and ears
-
>He seems to like it, you think. Or he could just be asleep
-
>Yeah, he's asleep
-
>Nothing to stay up for, you turn off the lights and walk into your bedroom
-
>Still no gf. Want a gf. Definitely.
-
>Fall asleep
-
-
>Crash, bang, someone swearing loudly
-
>Fuck, someone has broken into your shithole apartment building and is in your kitchen
-
>Dynamicly exit your bed and grab the kendo stick you keep for just this purpose
-
>Burst out into your kitchen-living-entry room
-
>Find nothing, just Trooper looking sheepish with that damn filthsponge in his mouth surrounded by garbage, trash can tipped over
-
>Check your front door
-
>Still locked, must have hallucinated the yelling, or it could've been Mr. McYellsAtTheTV downstairs
-
>You look around at the grabage and the pony now laying on his belly, looking like he's trying to hide under his forelegs
-
"Trooper, what did I..."
-
>You stop, talking to animals is a crazy cat lady thing to do.
-
>At this point it might just be easier to wash Trooper's filthbeast tomorrow
-
"Whatever"
-
>You walk back into your bedroom, flipping off the lights as you go
-
>Getting comfortable as you see Trooper in the doorway
-
>You pat some of the open space on your bed
-
>Trooper gets the message and climbs onto the bed, settling on top of the cover
-
>You pull the cover out from under trooper and cover him
-
>The ponybeast makes a gentle happy noise, drops the smelly rag-beast in the bed and snuggles close to you, licking your cheek softly
-
>Trooper is really affectionate, it seems.
-
>You pet is newly-clean coat, stroking through his mane and hugging him close
-
>The pony falls asleep within moments
-
>His soft breaths are actually kind of relaxing, his breath smelling a bit like hay, his side rising and falling under your arm
-
>You fall asleep with this massive teddy bear of a pet in your arms
-
-
>Morning of the second day
-
>You wake up as you feel the pony stirring next to you, his hooves pressing into you as he stretches
-
>It's freaking dawn.
-
>Birds are chirping and everything
-
>Trooper retrieves his stinkrag and hops out of bed
-
>You grumble and growl at the world for having the audacity to be morning, and get out of bed
-
>"Horsefeathers!"
-
>You hear in your kitchen, accompanied by a heavy crash
-
>Kendo stick, dynamic entry
-
>Trooper is laying on the floor on his side, holding one foreleg to his chest and whining
-
>And noone else is in the room, front door still locked
-
>Sherlock mode engaged
-
>Hear a voice in a room occupied only by your pony...
-
>Wait, shit, Trooper is hurt
-
-
>Kneel next to the pony, almost slipping on some of the trash still on the floor
-
>He's still whimpering and holding his foreleg, looks like he's crying
-
>You try to touch the leg to examine it with your doctorate from WebMD
-
>"Don' touch that!" Trooper says
-
>Wait, what.
-
>Trooper slaps his one good foreleg over his mouth and looks terrifyed
-
"Umm... Trooper, did you just talk?"
-
>The pony looks at you, the away, going back to cradling his hurt foreleg
-
"Trooper, you definately just spoke just now"
-
>The pony remains mute and tries to nuzzle one of your palms
-
>You stroke his mane and ears, then stand to start picking up the garbage
-
"Well, I'll just throw this away then"
-
>You say, getting closer to his ragmonster, leaning down to pick it up
-
>"Wh-wait! Don' do that!"
-
>Trooper lunges to you, hugging around your legs with his good leg
-
>"Pleas' by the godesses is all ah have an'..." Trooper starts gibbering, tearing up and burying his face in your calves, half his words cut short by sobs
-
>You awkwardly turn around and manage to sit on some dry floor, Trooper still gibbering something about " ah wanna be a g-good pet j-jus' lemme keep that..."
-
>You reach down and stroke his ears, which just seems to make him whine more as he awkwardly pushes himself closer, head buried in your stomach
-
"Uh... Trooper, slow down"
-
>You say, free hand feeling for concussion marks, whatever those feel like
-
>Trooper takes a shuddering breath and hugs his hurt leg to his chest, good leg around your back
-
>"P-p-please mister ah wanna be a g-good pet d-don' send me b-back"
-
"Hey, hey I'm... not going to send you anywhere, alright?"
-
>Trooper just sobs in response, shoulders heaving
-
>You pet down his ears and neck, trying to comfort the bizzare talking ponybeast
-
"I won't throw away your... whatever it is"
-
>"Sm-martah pants..." He manages, pressing into your petting
-
"Smarty pants... alright, how'd you get that?"
-
>Trooper snivels and whines softly as he puts a little weight on his foreleg, getting more of his weight in your lap
-
>"G-gift from ah 'nother pony I kn-knew... b-back in the trainin' facility"
-
>You start petting Trooper's neck now, the action seeming to calm him down
-
>"Is all ah have t-ta remember mah friends and family..."
-
"Oh, you... well, how long ago was that?"
-
>Trooper sniffles, tears slowly stopping
-
>"Ha-had ta be more than' ah year ago... I w-was b-baught by my firs' master..."
-
>The pony moves in closer, hurt leg moving around your back with a slight wince
-
>"Ah-ah triah'd to be good for 'em, I listen'd and didn' talk when they didn' want me ta..."
-
>Trooper starts shuddering, sniffling and sobbing returning in fits and starts
-
>"An' ah really trah'd! Ah d-did! B-but tha master I was bough' for didn't wan' me..."
-
>You hug the pony close, careful of his hurt leg
-
>"H-he c-called me freaky and stupid... ah' just wanted ta be ah good pet..."
-
>You stroke Trooper's ears
-
"You're not stupid, Trooper"
-
>A true statement, considering he's the only talking pet you know
-
-
>"Ah-ah... triah'd!" The pony sobs
-
>You pick him up, belly-up in your arms.
-
>He's heavy, but you set him on the couch on his side and start petting along his chest, leaving his head in your lap
-
>He hasn't stopped talking the whole time
-
>"An' ah I jus' wanted to help clean' up b-but I slipped and now yer gonna send me back to the shelter an' ah'm n-never gunna s-see mah family again an'"
-
>You shush the pony gently, if only to stop the barrage
-
"Trooper, nobody is going back to any shelters, okay?"
-
>He hugs you with his forelegs, only answering by crying loudly
-
>You stroke the ponies' ears and mane, the crying intensifying
-
>"Na'body wan's me..."
-
>You wrap the pony in your old blanket, touching his hurt leg only drawing a little wince, he must of only pulled it a little
-
"I bought you, didn't I?"
-
>"Y-yer gunna send me away like mah first family an'-an' nobody want'ed me in th' shelter an'"
-
"Why would I do that?"
-
>"Ah-ah'm a b-bad pet an' nobody wan's a bad pet..."
-
>You wrap the blanket a little tighter, stroking his ears
-
"I don't think you're a bad pet"
-
>"B-b-but ah' am or ah'd still be with ma first master o-or frien's"
-
"Trooper, it's okay..."
-
>You wrap him in a tight hug, the pony awkwardly draping his forelegs around your neck as he rests his head on your shoulder
-
>"Mah Gr-granny n-named me M-Mac, B-Big Mac"
-
"Alright, it's okay Big Mac"
