“Anon are you sure about this? I mean of all ponies I totally get the whole 'rush' thing but isn't this going a bit far?” Rainbow asked with a concerned expression on his face. He always got this way when you went balls to the wall on the extreme spectrum. To be fair to him though this was pretty sketchy, even for you.

Currently at the top of a mountain in a wing suit and parachute made by your good friend Elusive, it was easy to understand Rainbows skepticism. Although the designer was more than up to the task and if he thought the work was good then so did you.

“Rainbro, chill out dude, I totally got this.” The statement didn't seem to get though to him because he was still low key freaking out.

“I'm not worried about you Anon, I'm worried about that stupid suit getting ripped or that para-whatever not working or something! This stunt could land you in the hospital or worse!” Trying and failing to remain calm Rainbow tried to take deep breaths to relax, even a little. Starting to feel bad you walk over to pat the cyan pegasus on the head. The usual dumbass grin plastered on your face.

“Hey even if all that stuff fails, which I doubt they will. I still got you here to save my skin, right dude?”

He considered it for a moment before a confident smile crossed his muzzle. “No doubt, I got your back.”

“Alright awesome dude. That mean we can start the countdown?”

“Totally.” He flew a few feet up and put on his best announcer voice.

“The awesome and radical Anon will now attempt a stunt never before seen in Equestrian history! A flight down a mountain without any wings! ARE YOU READY!?

“HELL YEAH!”

“In 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4...”

“3 2 1 GO!”

With that you jumped off of the mountain and spread your arms and legs wide. For a brief instant there was a sensation of weightlessness before gravity reclaimed your body. Sailing down the mountain your heart was pounding like a bass drum in your chest. Each beat sent more and more of the euphoric chemical known as adrenaline through your bloodstream. Soon it consumed the being known as Anon, nothing could ever top this feeling. Angling from side to side experimenting with the feel of the suit it seemed Elusive did a hell of a job. Everything worked perfectly, but there was only one way to find out how well the suit really worked.

Quickly you tucked your arms and legs in and rolled, while a little disorienting it felt so freakin cool. Spreading your limbs back out to catch the wind there came cheering louder than the wind screaming all around you. Sounded like Rainbow had gotten over the fear for your life and was enjoying the show. Little did the cyan pegasus know that was only the beginning.

Tucking into a ball while flipping and rolling were all you were able to manage with relative safety it still did the trick for Blitz. He seemed almost as pumped as you were. Noticing the approaching treeline one more trick came to mind. It would be a nice finisher.

As trees started to pass down below you angled the wing suit up with all of your might. The steep angle sent you sailing back up, while still ascending the transition to the cannonball trick was easy. To anypony passing by you probably did look just like a ball sailing through the clouds. When the stunt reached its apex the parachute popped out jolting you but slowly starting a decent as well.

While slowly sailing over the trees Blitz easily caught up and couldn't help but gush like an awestruck colt at his first Wonderbolts show. “Dude, Anon, that was fucking AWESOME! Like as soon as you started pulling off those moves I knew you had it. It was just so cool, if ponies started to do this then there could be a new division added to the Wonderbolts!” He continued to gush for what seemed like minutes, not that it wasn't flattering or anything.

You smiled at the excitement of the technicolor pegasus. He always loved it when you did something cool. Even if he would probably never admit it out loud RB was undoubtedly your biggest fan.

“Sorry to shoot you down dude but I don't do this stuff for fame or anything its all for the fun and the rush. Speaking of, all that fun worked up a hell of a sweat. Starting to smell pretty rank and a shower sounds real nice right now.”

“Tell me about it, why did you think I was flying in front of you?” He let out a small chuckle.

Faking a hurt look you pouted, “Is it really that bad?” You lifted an arm as best you could in the parachute and took a whiff... damn rank didn't do that justice. It was strait up raunchy.

“Alright its pretty bad but to be fair I climbed a mountain in this.”

Blitz looked at you and deadpanned. “Nobody ever said you had to do that you dork.”

“But dude, it was such good cardio. How do you expect me to look this sexy if I don't do cardio?”

Rainbow scrunched up his muzzle and looked away you could have sworn he was blushing too. Ponies seemed to do that a lot around you, weird but whatever.

You angled the parachute towards a clearing in Whitetail woods. After touchdown you began to pack the parachute back up. Putting the backpack back on Rainbow walked to your side.

“So Anon I was wondering, why did you get a house all the way out here?”

Taken aback for a moment at the sudden question you consider it for a moment. Taking a deep breath of fresh air and letting the peace of this place wash over you.

“It's not that I don't like ponies or anything it's more like I enjoy the peace and quiet when I want to chill. While I like stunts and stuff my alone time is when I can let everything go and unwind ya know?”

Looking down at Blitz you notice him hoofing at the dirt and pouting? Not something he does often... on second thought he does that whenever he doesn't get what he wants or when he's bummed out. “Yo Rainbro you good dude? Somethin buggin you?”

Seeming to come out of some sort of daze he looks at you and goes to speak but hesitates for a moment. Then he says in a near whisper. “Sorry I cut into your alone time Anon if you want me to beat it just say so.”

For a moment you stand in the clearing dumbstruck before you burst out laughing. Clutching your sides after a moment as they begin to hurt. Looking up to find an extremely pissed off Rainbow staring you down. He flies at you with blinding speed knocking you down and pinning your shoulders. Getting up in your face he almost screams at you, “you think that's funny Anon?!”

Looking into his face you notice its all red and his eyes make it look like he's about to cry. The anger was etched into his every feature. He had a good hold on you but being the stronger of the two you reach your arms around his body and pull him close. This caught Rainbow by surprise and he struggled for a moment before relaxing into you, realizing it was just a hug. As he eases into your embrace you sit up. Seeming not to notice the change in position the pegasus still had his muzzle buried in your chest.

“Rainbow Blitz, you are literally my best friend. Being alone is nice sometimes. But being with you is great all the time. Don't think that for even a second you bug me, that's impossible. Although you can be a dork at times you're still awesome.

You instantly cheer up when Rainbow looks up at you with his easygoing smile. “Thanks Anon, sorry for freaking out like that on you.” He pushes away to stand back up, for a moment you don't want to let go of him. Wanting to hold him longer just to make sure everything's good, but Rainbow is his own stallion and if he seems good he probably is.

Although you find yourself missing his touch, his soft fur, that pleasant smell of fresh rain... where where you going with that? Whatever doesn't really matter. You shrug off the odd thoughts and notice Rainbow looking at you like he asked a question... damn.

“Sorry dude spaced out, what did you say?”

“I asked if you were ready to head back to your place yet.”

“Oh yeah, just gimme a sec to get this stupid suit off, had enough cardio for today.” Blitz laughed lightly at that one, nice to know he's in a good enough mood for a joke.

After taking off the suit and slinging it with the parachute over your shoulder you look over at RB. He seems to be looking anywhere but you at the moment. While you only had shorts on under the suit it didn't seem like a big deal. Then it came back to you, RB said that he didn't like seeing you without clothes. Said it was weird because you wore them all the time or something like that. It was only a shirt though so no biggie.

“I won't turn you to stone or anything if you look at me dork.”

His face seemed to get red at that statement. “What, no, your almost naked I'm trying to be respectful here.”

“Dude I've told you before people walk around shirtless all the time and ponies are naked almost all the time.”

Seeming to have some sort of internal conflict for a moment he finally decides to look over at you. There was a noticeable tinge of red in his cheeks. This was too good of an opportunity to pass up. Putting on your best concerned look you walk over and lean in close putting a hand on his forehead.

“You okay Rainbow? Do you feel sick?”

At that he immediately takes off in the direction of your house. Shouting behind him, “Yeah, totally, I'll grab some ice from your place and meet you there”

After staring off into the woods for a moment it looked like Blitz just ditched you. Realizing this you start walking in the direction of your house. It seemed a little weird that Blitz was this worried over the possibility of a fever, but he is an athlete so it would make sense he would be worried about his health.This still didn't make the ditching any less of a dick move, just an understandable one. With that thought sticking you continued on. Then something came to mind, Blitz was in a hurry and was about to try and find something... which meant the place was gonna be a total wreck when you got there. With newfound motivation you started to pick up the pace, hoping that the damage wouldn't be too bad.

The house started to emerge from the treeline a short while into your dash through the forest. It was a cozy little wooden house with a fair sized porch complete with some chairs and a hammock. That particular spot was probably one of the most comfortable places to take naps. It was almost a shame that Rainbow seemed to use it more than you did, almost.

Walking onto the porch the door was already open and there was a racket coming from inside. The Cyan tornado was probably wrecking the place, making it even more of a mess than what you left it. Stepping through the door frame you made your way to the kitchen to find Blitz halfway inside a cabinet tossing out bowl after bowl.

That was a little weird since you were pretty sure you didn't have that many freakin bowls. Choosing to ignore that little detail there was also the question as to why he was looking in a cabinet for an ice pack. Rainbow has been here plenty of times so he should know where everything is.

Letting out a sigh you decided it doesn't really matter, what does matter is how badly you need a shower. Leaving RB to himself you drop off the wing suit and parachute by the laundry room and move into the bathroom. It was a little small like everything else in the house, seeing as it was made for ponies and not people. It worked well enough for a quick shower and after drying off you covered up to walk across the hall and get some clean clothes.

Elusive really did symbolize generosity well. He had made your entire wardrobe and gave a major discount when you insisted on paying for the clothes. Sometimes you thought he was a little too generous. It would be pretty simple to take advantage of his charitable nature if one were inclined to do so. Although seeing as he was an element and close friends to one of the princes most wouldn't even think about doing something that dumb.

After deciding on a black tank top and some sweatpants you started to wonder why it was so quiet. Hopefully Blitz didn't total your house to the point that there was nothing left to mess up. Then again he spent plenty of time here and treated this place like his own so it shouldn't be too bad.

Walking out into the kitchen you are amazed to see that it is completely clean. Glancing over into the living room you see Blitz chilling on the couch with a giant bowl of nachos and some salsa on the coffee table.

“Why do you look like you just saw Prince Solaris turn down a cake?” The question snapped you out of the daze and you laughed lightly at the joke.

“Sorry dude just pleasantly surprised that there isn't a mess and those nachos look so good right now.” Walking over and sitting on the couch you remember why all of your furniture was custom made, it made them some of the few objects here that accommodated your size. As a bonus all of it was comfy too. While you started to munch on nachos Blitz turned on the TV and it held the title to one of the best movies in this world.

“The first Iron Pony?”

“Yeah I was thinking we could have a marathon. Up for it Anon?”

“Rainbro this is why you are at least 20% cooler than anypony I know.”
