Shorts I've done for the Lyra thread. New shorts will be added from the top. Unless spaced by "--" these aren't meant to have any hard continuity.

>The unlit fireplace doesn't do much for the nerves either, making it hard to see.

>Nuzzling your way through her door, which is thankfully lit on the other side, you see the two culprits on a seemingly too-small bed, curled up asleep partially under a thick blanket.
-
31.
>Looks like all those tall tales mommas tell their foals about sleeping alone is true.
-
32.
>A big predator really did snatch Lyra up because she slept alone without other ponies to take watch.
-
33.
>Right, she mentioned he was hairless over most of his body too, and that without insulation he was the warmest "cuddly buddy."
-
34.
>The human had both his fore-arms around her securely, one of his weird claws over her muzzle, a little tongue poking out here and there to lick the individual digits.
-
35.
>Her ear flicks as Anon's breath tickles the back of it, making a motion to lightly swat him on his tiny foal-like snout.
-
36.
>And next to them on the bedside table are the matches you’re looking for.
-
37.
>Snorting you canter over to the bedside table, not making an effort to be quiet.

>Predators tend to sleep more soundly, and for many times longer than a pony.
-
39.
>And Lyra is... Lyra.
-
40.
>Not to snuff the hearth, but unicorns are unusually eccentric, especially those weirdos that never leave their mountains, and none more than Lyra.
-
41.
>Even the way she sits and grazes is weird.
-
42.
>As you get close, you find Lyra's muzzle has escaped from the hold, twisting around up to try and hit the human's face with a stray lick.
-
43.
>Deftly, and still asleep, the human's chin tilts up, narrowly avoiding it.
-
44.
>With a low grunt his claw grabs and rubs her muzzle once more, now you realize it's to stop the sleepy grooming.
-
45.
>The human hums, pressing his face into her thick winter coat as he curls up around her, squeezing out a quiet whicker from Lyra.
-
46.
>Just like that they’re still again.
-
47.
>...They're both weirdos.

67.
>Stupid predators and their quiet hoofsteps.

>If you weren't used to dealing with them prowling around in your last job, with much deadlier intentions, he might have gotten away with it.

>He just looks at you with his stupid smile as you force your ears and head upright.

"If I agree to this... whatever it is. Do you promise you'll leave my shop?"

>Your hind leg reflectively stomps when you feel the human grab your tail, under the end of your last tailbone.
-
101.
>"Easy, there. Bon."
-
102.
>He places another hand on top of your rump making the rest of your body tense, your tail begging to be clamped back down.
-
103.
>"It's easier if you relax, Bonnie."
-
104.
"I doubt it."
-
105.
>You don't know how she can relax with this big human hugging and grabbing her all the time.
-
106.
>Unlike her you and most other ponies actually have preservation instincts.

107.
>Still, if it's to get these two out of your shop...

>What in sun’s rays was that?
-
117.
>And why does it feel so nice?

>”Alright, we should get going. Bye Bonnie!”

133.
>How did she find you so quickly?

134.
>You prop yourself up on Anon's shoulders to nicker at your friend.

135.

138.
"H-heya, Bonnie," you say,

139.
>"Why're you wearin' that onesie, Bonathan?" Anon asks, pushing the caramel in his mouth around with his tongue.
-
140.
>... Of course Anon wouldn't make this easy.

141.
>Bon stomps her hoof and swishes her tail.

142.

143.
>Ha! she didn't say it wasn't a onesie.
-
144.
>Horseapples, Bonbon saw you chuckle.

>Anon turns, your eyes meeting with a silent agreement.

>Before you and Anon can even get on your hooves, in one swift motion Bonnie tugs a bolo off her withers and throws it to Anon's legs.
