>anon had plans
-
>BIG plans
-
>he found out that christmas in ponyville just wasn’t the same as back home
-
>it wasn’t bad, it just didn’t have that same feeling to it
-
>everypony was happy and cheery but there was no santa
-
>sure, there’s hearths warming, but ponyville NEEDS a christmas
-
>what’s a good christmas without santa?
-
>and what is santa without gifts
-
-
>anon had been a very VERY good planner too
-
>he started this whole operation fucking MONTHES in advance
-
>at first he didn’t know what to get them
-
>so many presents, so many bits
-
>he couldn’t afford it
-
>going cheap felt wrong
-
>but then it struck him
-
>subtly at first, he didn’t believe it could work
-
>but anon was smart
-
>he did a few trial runs
-
>a few compliments here and there to ponies he knew
-
>and when he saw there reactions he finally understood that what he struck exactly, was PURE GOLD
-
>they ate it up
-
>the little ponies loved their compliments and recognition
-
>there’s no present in the world that could out do that
-
>so it seems that the gift of recognition was what anon decided on
-
>in the form of letters of course
-
>his hand hurt really bad for a while but it was worth it
-
-
>now all anon had to do was make these letters very personal
-
>he can’t just hand them a letter saying they look nice or something
-
>actually… he could, and it would have been sufficient honestly
-
>but anon doesn’t do sufficient
-
>he goes above and beyond
-
>for pinkie, her letter won’t just be “you throw nice parties”
-
>it’s going to be a big paragraph full of all the smiles she gave everypony and how much her celebrations meant to them
-
>pinkie deserves to know that her parties have meaning beyond their beginning and end
-
>she gives good memories and moments to all of ponyville
-
>and for big mac it won’t just be “great work on the farm buddy”
-
>it will be a NOVEL accounting all the wonderful things he’s done for his family and customers
-
>all the hunger he’s satiated, all the hard work he’s done, how much that work has helped his family and how much of an amazing pony he his for doing those things that nopony else could ever do but him
-
>THIS is what anon has in store for ponyville this year…
-
-
>tonights first stop, Twilight’s library
-
>Twilight’s letter is extra special
-
>actually, personal is a better description because a lot of it has to do with how much anon appreciates everything twilight did for him
-
>but it aint just that, because anon did his research
-
>all the accounts of friendship problems she’s solved, and all the wonderful things she did for others and to help them become better friends
-
>oh yeah, when she wakes up tomorrow she’s gonna bask in all her accomplishments
-
>that is… if she were still in bed right now…
-
-
>”s-santa?” twilight says in a quiet little voice
-
>anon absolutely did not have to invest in a santa costume, but he is sure glad he did after getting caught
-
“Uh, hohoho, um, ms.sparkle…”
-
>anon had no clue what to say, he was way too lost in thought during his little plan A that he never thought of a plan B
-
>”is that really you?” she says with a growing smile, eyes practically glowing at anon
-
“Sssshhhhhh… do you think you can keep a little secret just for santa tonight my little pony?” anon internally congratulates himself for the recovery
-
>twilight gets all serious for a moment (in her silly little way of course)
-
>”yes santa” she says with a salute
-
>anon pulls out her letter wrapped with a cute bow and hands it to her
-
“Make sure to wait until morning before telling anypony about little old me alright, I’ve still got a few presents to deliver” anon says with a cheery smile
-
>twilights eyes spark with wonder as magic surrounds the letter
-
>she floats it towards herself with the utmost care
-
>she focuses intensely on the letter but decides to use what little willpower that pone had to wait until morning to open her present
-
“I have quite the list of good little ponies to visit ms.sparkle, it seems everypony made the nice list this year so i’ll be quite busy this evening”
-
>as anon turns he hears a tiny squeak
-
>”wait…” twilights hushed voice rings
-
>twilight wraps her front hoover around anons leg and looks up into his eyes
-
>”please don’t forget about anon mr.santa, he talked a whole lot about you last year but you didn’t come…”
-
>oh boy
-
>that’s a curve ball
-
“I know my dear twilight, it was very difficult finding anon as it was. He was always on the nice list but i couldn’t seem to find him last year, I checked everywhere i could but no sign of him”
-
>anon bends down to get eye level with her
-
“But now that i have found him, i can assure you he’s getting double this year” anon says with a santa-ish chuckle (or at least his best impression of one)
-
“And best of all, i’ve found myself some wonderful little ponies in need of presents during the holiday season. I found more than what i was looking for and i couldn’t be more happy than i am now”
-
>anon gives twilight a big hug
-
>”th-thank you…” twilight says with a teary sniffle
-
>anon breaks the hug slowly and gets back up
-
“Merry christmas twilight…”
-
>”merry christmas mr.santa…”
-
>and off anon goes to deliver the rest of the presents for the night
-
-
>anon woke the next morning sore beyond belief
-
>breaking and entering is a very difficult thing to do especially when you're carrying a big ol bag full of letters
-
>the stuff is pretty heavy when u have as much as anon did
-
>but anon didn’t have much time to process his thoughts
-
>no, anon woke up to some of the most excited door banging he’s heard in his life
-
>he practically throws himself off them bed and stumbles to the door
-
>he opens the door to see a very excited and very familiar group of friends
-
>twilight was the first to yell
-
>”ANON YOU’RE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE IT, SANTA CAME TO PONYVILLE!!!!”
-
>behind the six of them was all of ponyville chattering away carrying letters with them
-
>it seems anon, or “santa” should we say, had a much larger impact on ponyville than anon initially intended
-
>”COME ON SLEEPY HEAD! WE GOTTA SHOW YOU OUR PRESENTS!” pinkie shouts
-
>anon grabs his coat and steps out the door
-
>the now seven of them make way to sugar cube corner to show off their new found gifts
-
-
>though anon initially thought sugar cube corner was an odd choice, the reasoning behind it was mr and mrs cake were also excited to share their gifts too
-
>as was everypony it seemed
-
>when anon stepped outside it was an absolute hayday of smiles and pure unfiltered joy
-
>some ponies even hugged their letters because of how much it meant to them
-
>who knew anon could make this much of an impact
-
>but that was just scratching the surface
-
>as the seven… no, now NINE of them sat down they began to drip with excitement waiting to see who will go first
-
>it seems pinkie is first to break
-
>”you guys aren’t going to believe it, santa told me for spreading smiles ALL YEAR ROUND!” pinkie squeals in excitement
-
>next was applejack
-
>”well, santa told me how proud he was a’ me that I work so hard to keep ponyville so well fed!” applejack puffs out her chest in pride
-
>rainbowdash butts in
-
>”oh yeah, well, santa told me that I’m an inspiration to everypony with all my cool moves, how awesome is that!”
-
>fluttershy manages to squeak some words in between the brief silence
-
>”well, santa told me that he’s really grateful that I take care of all the critters in ponyville, he even said that I’m like his special little elf for all the animals!” even fluttershy can’t contain her joy as she squeals too
-
>rarity excitedly proclaims her news
-
>”you won’t BELIEVE this… santa told me I’m one of the best gift givers in all of EQUESTRIA, he said I’m an absolute STAR at making ponies feel wonderful with all the dresses I make for them and that I give them the chance to show off how they feel in ways they never could before!” Rarity stomps her hooves in an overpowering joy
-
>Mrs Cake shares her and her husbands little letters too
-
>”oh you have to hear this, santa told us how happy he is that we make special treats for ponyville! His letter even said he may have to order from us next year, SANTA. Wants to order. From US next year!!!” the couple embrace each other
-
>and finally we had twilight
-
>...
-
>*ahem* and finally we had twilight…
-
>...
-
>oh no is she crying?
-
-
>everypony and anon stares at twilight
-
>everypony is worried that santa didn’t send her a letter
-
>but anon knew his letter was good
-
>it was his most important letter after all
-
>so he wasn’t worried one bit
-
>he knew those were some of the happiest tears he’s ever seen
-
>and finally she spoke
-
>”I… my… my l-letter f-f-from s-santa said th-that I… that I was the bestest friend for anon ever and-and-and th-that he knew that n-nopony else w-would have b-been a better first for a-anon than MEEEEEEEeeeeee-eee-eeeee...”
-
>Twilight bursted into tears as she hurriedly shuffled over to anon to embrace him
-
>she holds that embrace but kept speaking through the sniffles
-
>”and-and he even told me how h-happy you were that we are friends and that he knew y-y-you liked my little talks that nopony else likes to hear b-b-but he said th-that you always loved listening to them a-a-and even though I-I thought you were just b-being nice…”
-
>she tries to catch her breath but can only manage a softer than normal voice
-
>”he said he saw how much you always smiled while you listened…”
-
>twilight looks up at anon with red eyes
-
>”anon… is it true, do you like listening to my foalish science talks?”
-
>her eyes are full of hope, pleading with you to say yes
-
“Of course twilight, they were one of my favorite things when i first came here”
-
“They meant a lot to me…”
-
>twilights face contorts from the overwhelming joy as she bawls her eyes out and once again presses her face back into anons shirt
-
>you know… anon felt pretty nice
-
>out of everything in her letter
-
>the praise, the accomplishments, the recognition
-
>Twilight felt the most joy hearing how much of a good friend to anon she was
-
>maybe this is what they meant by the joy of giving
-
-
Merry Christmas anons!
