>You aimlessly walk down a dirt path just on the outskirts of Ponyville. >This has been a routine walk for a while now, for a variety of reasons. >Equestria is... really beautiful, in every way possible. >It's nice to just embrace nature here by coming here and admiring with all of your senses. >But a horrid sensation just assaulted you as your fingers brushed against the fabric of your shirt. >A jagged fingernail. Specifically on your middle finger. >You stop and inspect your hands. >Currently, your nails have been bitten down to practically nothing alongside rough, bitten skin around them. It's a little ugly to see, but it meant that there wouldn't be anything to bite. >At least, until another nail grew enough to start that crazy powerful urge. >You grimace and go to pick at the jagged nail with your other nails, until you realize they're not long enough to do anything. >Looks like it's time to give into biting your nails. >Moving the nail gradually closer to your mouth, you easily remember the vivid smell of saliva on skin and nails invading your nose. A little disgusting... you were used to it. >You close your eyes, navigating with your sixth sense and bit down- >Only to feel a large object stopping your teeth. >Opening your eyes, you find a yellow hoof is the culprit, so you pull it out of your mouth and eye the yellow pegasus fiend in front of you. "Great. I was wondering when you would show up to ruin my nature walk." >Surprisingly though, Fluttershy looks very... concerned. >"Anon, you know you shouldn't be biting down on your, um...." "Fingernails." >"O-oh, yeah, fingernails..." >Just as you tried to move them back, she holds your hands and forcibly pulls them down. >Then she glares at you. You don't think you've ever seen her look at you in that way. >It's a bit unnerving. >With a stern tone, she says, "You need to stop doing that. It's bad for your gums, your teeth, and- and... it hurts. I know it hurts." >After you respond to her with a blank stare, she sighs. >"Okay, don't worry. I know just the thing to help you." >She takes out some small bandages and wraps them tightly around the tips of your fingers. >"Don't take those off until you break the habit, okay?" She looks up from your fingers and continues, "I'll check on them every single day." "Yeah, yeah, whatever..." >Suddenly, her eyes widen. "Wait. Anon, is nail biting your fetish?" >Her mouth ajar, she touches your fingers again to take off the bandages- "No. Please avoid biting my nails, thank you." >Putting her hooves back on the ground, she simply frowns at you, but it slowly turns into what seems to be a genuine smile. >"Okay, Anon. Take care, and stop hurting yourself. I don't want to see you damaging those fingers, or any part of your body. Understand?" >You cautiously nod and she flies off in the other direction. >For once, she had been very caring. And sweet. That was... charming. >A rapist is charming? You vigorously shake your head. "No, bad Anon," you mutter to yourself, "she won't trick me by acting like that." >Finally, you continue your nature walk, waving those bandaged fingertips by your sides.
