The Sounds of Silence

by Asterilos the Star Watcher
A certain yellow pegasus is making it hard for Allegretto to live the simple life he wanted to lead.

When a new pony arrives in Ponyville to lead a quiet, simplistic life away from the stage, he can't imagine getting smitten by a shy, timid little pegasus. Even worse, his life before wasn't as glamorous as everyone would believe, and when his past begins to show up in his new home, he'll have to decide between the music he loves to play, or the pony he loves to play for.

Author's Note: Yes, I understand the tags are a bit contradictory, but elements of humor always manage to snake their way into every work I do. If the general consensus is that I don't need it, I'll uncheck it. And it goes without saying that all feedback is welcome so long as it isn't blatantly offensive.

EDIT 9/21/11: Yes, that cover image is one I drew myself during a Calculus lecture. An intricate flute with a butterfly on the end? How adorable, I know! Before anyone says anything, I have no idea what an actual flute looks like anymore, so any issues can be chalked up to pony craftsmanship. Enjoy!

Many thanks to knighty for helping me with the issues on uploading my picture. I'm eternally grateful.
