2.
-
3.
>"Knock! Knock! Knock!".
-
4.
>Roseluck banged on Anon's door harder this time since he didn't answer to the previous tapping.
-
5.
>No answer
-
6.
>"Anon, are you in there?"
-
7.
"Go away!"
-
8.
>Roseluck recoiled in surprise and hurt.
-
9.
>"B-But you said you would come to the picnic with my sisters and me. We made your favorite food, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and..."
-
10.
"No! I'm too grumpy!"
-
11.
>Roseluck gasped. It was more serious than she thought. Now she definitely had to help Anon
-
12.
>"We could go tend to my rose garden instead...if you like." she cooed.
-
13.
>A moment of silence. Roseluck was hopeful since Anon loved her rose garden, and tending to it.
-
14.
"Tempting, but no! I'm way too grumpy! I'm even too grumpy for ice cream with rainbow sprinkles!"
-
15.
>Roseluck was aghast, but she was resolved to help him.
-
16.
>She steeled her nerves, spun around and bucked as hard as she could.
-
17.
>Anon's door shattered into a million splinters and Roseluck trotted, with a beaming smile, into the dark room.
-
18.
"Gah! Hsssss!" exclaimed Anon, shielding his face from the outdoor light with an arm.
-
19.
>"Don't worry, Anon. I'm here to help you!" said Roseluck brightly.
-
20.
"Nah! Go away! There's no force in Equestria that can un-grumpify me, nothing!" He said with a decisive hand gesture.
-
21.
>Roseluck, knew better and giggled. This would be easy.
-
22.
>"Well, what about this!"
-
23.
>With that she began scrunching her nose repeatedly in the most adorable manner.
-
24.
"What?! No! Ah! Stop that! Curses!"
-
25.
>Anon retreated into the dark of the room but Roseluck pressed on, scrunching all the more.
-
26.
"Quit it! No! Noooooo!"
-
27.
>Sensing the opportunity, Roseluck made a final scrunch with all her might.
-
28.
>A wave of power surged through the room from the scrunch.
-
29.
>The curtains flew open and sunlight shone in. Anon, was tossed like a rag doll over the sofa.
-
30.
>Luckily his hoard of marshmallows behind the sofa broke his fall.
-
31.
>For a moment there was silence.
-
32.
>Roseluck looked on in hopeful anticipation.
-
33.
>Finally, a hand came up and gripped the back of the sofa, dramatically of course, and Anon stood up.
-
34.
>He was rubbing his head.
-
35.
"Whoa!"
-
36.
>"Are you ok, Anon?" she said, biting her lower lip.
-
37.
"Yeah! Actually, I feel...great! The grumpiness, it's gone completely!"
-
38.
>Roseluck grinned and clapped her hooves together.
-
39.
"How'd I get like that?"
-
40.
>"The grumpiness always comes in slowly, Anon. Bit by bit it takes over until you're just not yourself any more.
-
41.
"Gee, Roseluck. Thank you!"
-
42.
>"Your friends are always here for you, Anon! Wanna go to the picnic now?"
-
43.
"Of course! Let's go!
-
44.
>Roseluck trotted out the door, leading the way, with Anon skipping happily beside her.
