Your Shy Seduction

"Konnichiwa, watashi no kōhai," Fluttershy proudly chirped, her eyes sparkling with anime sparkles. You noticed her puff out her chest in pride; you mentally patted yourself on the back in return.

It was her deepest, darkest secret. Fluttershy is an otaku. She loves her anime. The usually shy, reserved pegasus quickly becomes an outgoing* geek whenever she becomes involved in such things. Mardoka Magica, Attack on Threstral, and Maruto are her favorite shows and, wow, are they violent! She has every single dvd (don't ask) and movie reel ever made for her favorites, and nearly every manga she could find. Not even Twilight could keep up with Fluttershy's mad obsession with manga, rivaling even Twilight's love for thermodynamics and magic. She even cosplays** from time to time. She doesn't talk about it in front of her friends for some reason****, but revealed her secret to you after you let it slip that you watch anime (You do, don't even deny it).

You quickly shake your head, pulling out of your thoughts. A beautiful mare is in front of you and it's time to take her out, sweep her off her hooves, and make sweet, sensual love with her. That is, of course, if you can make it through the date without screwing it up somehow. Considering how you managed to destroy a castle tower by forgetting to tie your shoe one day, chances are pretty high if you don't keep on your toes. Speaking of which...

"Um, I made you a treat, your favorite. I h-hope you like it." Fluttershy reached into her saddlebag with her muzzle and pulled out a tiny box just as you finished tying your shoelace. Once you looked up from your kneeling position, she places the box in front of you and pushes it forward with her nose, a small blush on her cheeks. Your heart tightened as you picked up the box and pulled off the lid. Inside was... jellied toast. Your favorite.

With a shaking hand, you wiped away your single tear. "T-thank you sempai. Thank you for noticing me."

Fluttershy beamed at you, her eyelashes fluttering in her lovely smile. A strike of boldness flashed through you. You put the toast in your mouth and reached a hand out. Fluttershy blinked at it, dropping her smile and a stone in your stomach. However, instead of commenting, she took a deep breath and placed her hoof onto your hand.

Slowly, you begin to stand up as Fluttershy flaps her wings to keep herself level with your waist. Hand in hoof, you take the lead and make your way back into town. Dinner, maybe a walk in the park, and "coffee" at her place is in store for tonight.

Surprisingly, she dominates the conversation talking about her animals, work, and your relationship as well. She never expected to be romanced by a male*****, let alone a strange creature never before seen in Equestria. In all honesty, she admits that she expected to have an arranged marriage with her foalhood friend or something similar. Her original plan was to live alone, sheltered and isolated from the other ponies except for grocery trips, but that changed after she started making friends. And then she met you.

To be fair, you couldn't really talk if you had toast in your mouth. It was delicious though, it even had your favorite jelly.

Ponies walking by couldn't help but smile and wave at the lovely couple passing by. Fluttershy squeaked, but waved back without you even needing to encourage her. Times like these, when shy Fluttershy grows, makes your heart swell with fond pride. You squeezed her hoof, non-verbally praising her, and took a turn on the road.

And a turn for the worst.

Everything turned black for a moment, thought it felt like eternity. Pain coursed through your body as shadowy tendrils tore into your brain and engulfed your consciousness. In other words, a concussion.

Colors began to rush back in your vision as your pulled yourself up from the ground, your temples throbbing and body aching. Distant sounds of Fluttershy's worried voice pulled you out of your daze as you shook your head and looked up. Fluttershy, as far as you could see in your swimming vision, was frantically defending you as some pony helped herself up.

"You!" the mare shouted and pointed a hoof at you. Bread crumbs flew out of her mouth as she wordlessly screamed in anger. She flared her wings and growled. "You! You ruined everything! Now I'm going to be late for school!" she continued to shout as she tried lifting her bike, the one she hit you with, only to have it fall apart. "And now you broke my bike! Jerk!"

You rubbed your eyes, not believing the sight before your eyes. A cyan pegasus, wearing a schoolgirl outfit and sporting a mane-bun, was busy fixing her bike and eating her toast after crashing into you.

"R-Rainbow Dash?" you couldn't help but ask, hardly believing she would be caught dead in public in that get-up. Not that you minded, of course. If you were a pegasus, your wings would be erect right now.

In response, Rainbow Dash blushed. "I-idiot! Not so loud! I don't want anypony to see me!"

This only caused further confusion; you scratched your head. "Then what are you doing in Ponyville? Everypony is going to see you."

"Because I lost a bet!" Rainbow Dash spat at you, taking a moment to wipe her mouth before continuing. "I have to bike through Ponyville in this... dress because Applejack beat me in a wrestling match, okay?"

"Why would Applejack want-"

"Why is she looking at me like that?" Rainbow Dash's wings snapped back to her sides as she took a step back, interrupting your train of thought. Rainbow's face was nearly completely red, having been thrust into the spotlight against her will. Curious and confused, you turn your head toward Fluttershy.

Fluttershy had a blank expression as she stared at Rainbow Dash. An ominous shiver of dread ran through your spine as you began to connect the dots. Before you could say anything, do anything, think of anything, Fluttershy pounced.

"You're so kawaii, Rainbow Dash!" Fluttershy cooed as she nuzzled her blushing friend in a death-grip hug. "I didn't know you loved dressing up too! We're going to have so much fun! We're going to go to conventions, draw comics, and write fanfiction together!" Her wings flapped and brought the two into the air, with a squirming Rainbow Dash in her hold.

Fluttershy, in her excitement, flew off with her dolled-up friend while gushing and fangirling about everything anime under the sun. You sighed and stood up, brushing yourself off. A few sympathetic ponies frowned and gave you their condolences, but you waved them off.

Sighing once more, you turned toward home and began to walk back. "At least sempai noticed me."

Wow, you're pretty nerdy, huh? Try again.
