Zecora and the Parasite
A mental chess game ensues between an eccentric rhyming zebra and an increasingly impatient slug.
A sister story to In Reflection, The Same
After the shattering, countless denizens of the old world fled from the Celestial sea to find refuge from the ice's many horrors. Reek was one of those refugees, and after days of slithering across mountains and through forests, he came across a small hut. Inside, he found a humble zebra who seemed to speak only in rhyme. It was so nice of her to welcome him with open hooves, and even nicer to allow him solace in her home.
This was perfect. She was perfect.
...The perfect host.
