That strange plant.View OnlineStonershyThat strange plant.A/N: sorry if the intro here isn't the best, It's main purpose is to just set the scene, well that and to try to get my storywriting gears turning, who knew brass could get rusty... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The door to the Ponyville library swung open quietly as a certain timid yellow pegasus stepped in. she waited for a moment for her friend, the librarian to see who arrived. after a few minutes it was pretty clear that no one was coming to meet her at the door. "Um... Twilight? are you here?" Fluttershy asked quietly as she looked around the library. Walking over to the shelves she decided to look for the book she came for herself. That's strange, Twilight's usually here... oh I hope nothing happened to her... Fluttershy thought as she scanned the many shelves of the Ponyville library. Now, where is that book on herbal remedies... oh, there it is, I'd recognize that green cover anywhere. She thought picking up the copy of Supernaturals, I know I saw that strange plant in here. Fluttershy kept looking around for twilight but the studious purple unicorn was nowhere to be found. Hmm... well she did say if she ever wasn't in to just leave a note, I suppose I can just do that. She thought as she found a notepad and a quill. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- A short time later Fluttershy was back in her cottage on the edge of the Everfree, the strange plant she had found was sitting in a clay pot on her table, with the yellow pegasus sitting in front of it, flipping through Supernaturals. Angel was sitting by the plant looking at it. "Ah, here we are angel." she said happily. "Cannabis Sativa... also known as Marijuana... odd name, sound marexican..." Fluttershy said chuckling slightly. "Hmm... it says here that a common use is to smoke the bud like flowers to relax. It's not poisonous either." Angel nodded, then hopped off the table. "Angel, where are you... oh?" Fluttershy said as she followed the rabbit as he reached into a small wooden box that held some of her father's possessions that he had passed on to her. Angel proceeded to pull out a polished wooden pipe and a small lighter, holding it out to her. "Hmm? you want me to have those? but they're already mine?" Fluttershy said, confused. The rabbit facepawed and hopped over to the plant and pointed at it. "Something about that plant? are you hungry?" Fluttershy asked, still not getting the rather obvious point. Angel deadpaned and pointed at the book, pipe and plant respectively. After a moment where you swore you could see the gears turning in Fluttershy's head she got the picture. "Oh, I can smoke it with that... I don't know angel, what if we don't have the right plant?" The rabbit sighed and hopped over to the book, double checking everything about the plant to make sure it's the right one. He then proceeded to pick one of the buds, break of a small piece, place it in the pipe and light the lighter. Taking a pull the small rabbit was soon coughing slightly, but quickly recovered, giving Fluttershy the thumbs up. "Well... if you're sure..." She said, emptying out the ashes from the pipe and placing the rest of the bud into the pipe.
Far out filly... far out...View OnlineStonershyFar out filly... far out...Fluttershy held the lighter over the end of the pipe and inhaled, taking a long drag. She held her breath, remembering that the book said to do that, her eyes watering slightly at the slight burning in her chest. Angel watched her, chuckling to himself slightly at the sight of the yellow pegasus, her cheeks bulged out from her holding her breath. After a minute or two she exhaled, the smoke still thick. She coughed a little bit as she gasped for breath. "That... wasn't... the most... pleasant of all things..." She said as she caught her breath. Angel just chuckled and headed outside, collapsing in a small pile of hay near the door, letting himself relax and enjoy the tingly feeling that was starting. Fluttershy stepped out of her cottage into the warm night air, breathing deeply. She did love the night, it was so nice and quiet. She felt a small tingling at the back of her head which progressed to the front and stayed. She started to feel relaxed and happy as it felt lie there was a very slight pressure on her skull, like a soft massage. She started walking up a nearby hill to a clearing as the feeling progressed down her face, the cool breeze feeling especially refreshing as she sat down atop the hill looking over the hills near Ponyville. The grass swayed in the breeze, silvery in the pale moonlight. she felt her eyelids droop as she watched the waves of silver in the dark green tall grass. She looked above her at the stars, their twinkling shining as a unique kind of beauty, their soft silver light softening the moon's shadows. She lifted her head smling as she remembered a song she had heard, a song about love and it's dual nature. humming the beginning she began to sing. "Love love is a verb, love is a doing word, fearless on my breath..." a pair of adolescent wolves stepped out of the everfree at the base of the hill, adding their howls to fluttershy's singing, the wolves voices singing out a backing melody. "Teadrop on the fire... fearless on my breath..." the sound of a set of pan pipes took up the bridge to the next verse, the pipes dropping into the background as fluttershy sang on, not worried about the wolves or the satyr that were at the base of the hill. the song ending with her laying down, a content smile on her muzzle as she curled up, one of the wolves lying down beside her to keep her warm. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Fluttershy awoke the next morning with a graceful yawn, feeling wonderful as she stood up and headed back to her cottage. a small wisp of smoke trailed from an open window. I hope that's just angel... not a fire... She thought as she flew the remaining distance and stepped inside. She chuckled at the sight before her. Angel had somehow acquired a hookah and was smoking it calmly in the corner. The apple-scented smoke gave a hint as to the source of the device. "There better not be any tobacco in there angel... you know the rules..." She said, her tone slightly stern. Angel just shook his head and pointed to a small tin of what looked like diced apples in very thick jam. "Ah, that." She said smiling remembering the gift of the tin of the apple family's trademark tobacco free Mu‘assel that she had never gotten around to using due to her lack of owning a hookah. "Nice to see it's getting used." She said as she looked at the cannibis plant sitting on her table. Picking another bud she placed it in the pipe and took a hit. "Today was going to be a Gooooooooood day angel, i just have this feeling..." -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- A/N: there ya go, sorry bout the lack of comedy in this particular chapter but trust me, there's going to be some in the next chapter.

pegasi highView OnlineStonershypegasi highHello again everypony, sorry about the wait, took some time to get this done due to real life reasons. Hope y'all enjoy and as always, let me know of any mistakes that you find. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Fluttershy smiled as she trotted out of her cottage, heading in the direction of the everfree, a small packet of seeds that she had found on the plant clenched in her teeth, and the pipe and lighter in a pouch around her neck. she stopped every now and then to smell the flowers and admire the forest, not scared due to the fact that she often traveled the path due to needing medicine for the animals in her care. There's the poison joke... hehe flutterguy... she thought before starting to laugh at what had happened to her and her friends. A few minutes later she was still sitting there giggling madly to herself as a familiar black and white form trotted down the path. "What is this I spy? Are you feeling alright Fluttershy?" Zecora said smiling as she trotted up. "Hmm oh, hi Zecora." Fluttershy said still grinning. "I was just thinking back to the poison joke incident." She said and giggled a bit more. Zecora raised an eyebrow at her cheery disposition. "This behavior is unlike you Fluttershy, I would expect such giggling from Pinkie Pie." "I suppose so..." She said, swaying slightly. "Probably that plant I found earlier. There were a few of them in my garden and one of the animals knocked over a candle onto one of them. The smoke made me feel funny, but not funny weird, more like funny ha-ha..." "Would this plant happen to have buds of green and orange? If so then I… I..." Zecora proceeded to say something in her native tongue. "It seems that sentence is bad for rhyming, I always forget that Orange doesn't rhyme with anything..." Fluttershy had burst out laughing again, this time at the annoyed zebra. "S-sorry Zecora" She giggled, "But the look on your face..." "Perhaps you should show me this plant Fluttershy, for if it is what I think it is, its seeds from you I may buy." Zecora said with a grin as she started down the path, the stoned pegasus beside her humming a tune. -=-=-=-=-=- Zecora chuckled as she stepped into Fluttershy's cottage, a small amount of smoke drifting past her as she opened the door. "Hmm... well it seems like your rabbit friend knows where to begin, how about we join in?" She said as she spotted the plant on the table. Angel had Supernaturals sitting beside him and what looked like a tapered cigarette in one paw. He raised a paw to say hi before dropping it back down and taking a pull on the joint. "Um, this stuff can't kill you right Zecora?" Fluttershy asked as the zebra picked up a small box from beside angel that had 'Alicorn Wings Grape Flavoured Rolling Papers' as the label. "You do not have to worry Fluttersy, the most this plant can do is get you high." Zecora smiled as she picked a few buds from the plant. "You do have more of this plant around your home? It does tend to take some time to become fully grown." Zecora said as she ground up the buds and started rolling, being sure to put a small piece of card in one end as a filter. "I saw more in the Everfree, it would not be hard to find it again." Fluttershy said as Angel passed the joint to her. "Thank you angel." "Where I come from this plant is a rare treat, I think we may be able to sell it around Ponyville, if we are discrete." Zecora said as she finished rolling. "Why sell when you can share? I don't need any extra money." Fluttershy said. Zecora thought for a while. "Well at my home, to this plant I can dedicate a patch, that is, if to Ponyville the product you are willing to dispatch." She said with a smile. "I think I could do that, although I would have to find out weather it's legal to do that... I seem to remember something in the paper about someone getting arrested for selling this plant now that I think about it..." Fluttershy said, starting to look a little worried. "Hmm, yes I think the aristoponies have a problem with us distributing this stuff, give me some time and i'll figure out a plan to do just that soon enough." Zecora said. "But for now, this rule do not forget, when in the company of friends, 'Puff, puff, pass that shit." Zecora said, and the three started laughing as Fluttershy obliged.
