Fluttershy awoke to the soft sounds of the little birdies singing their morning songs. after listening for a while, she soon realised the it was morning and promply her eye lids fluttered open, but taking their time due to the sudden brightness of the light. She let out a long relaxed yawn and she streched and took a step onto the floor. the next thing she realized what that she was now slipping and sliding half way across the room and faceplanted into a pile clothes.

“oh… my” she said. NOw that fluttershy was fully awake, she looked around her room. It was a mess. Clothes lay strewn across the floor and on shelves, Alicornian memorabilia laid on the ground, and it was just generally a mess since silver moved in. That’s when fluttershy decided to have a talk with silver about his habits, and flesh out some of the ground rules for living together that she hadn’t explained very well in the past.

Meanwhile downstairs….

Silver haze was stumbling around the kitchen in his groggy, half asleep state. He let out a roaring yawn and grbbed himself a mug. He saw a tea pot filled with some liquid that he assumed was tea, but he was too tired and hungover to check when it was made, so he poured it into his mug and was about to sip when he heard fluttershy at the kitchen door
“Goodmorning sleepyhead” said fluttershy with a sheepish grin.
“good morning… not so loud please” he said, holding a hoof to his temple. “it was a long day of training and i had little too much relaxing time if you know what i mean” silver chuckled, but then whinced at his headache.

Fluttershy sighed as she floated over to Silver pullling over a seat for her to land on. Silver sat dowen as well.

Fluttershy nerviously smiled, which Silver caustiosly returned.

Fluttershy sighed. “Silver, I need to talk to you about something...thats kinda been bothering me for a while…” Silver haze nodded, sipping his mystery drink and trying to listen.

Fluttershy mustered her courage “Silver Haze, you are making a mess of the place, it is becoming imposible to navigate and several of my Animals have almost impailed themselves on weapons you left just sitting around the house! I barly have any room to put any of my stuff anywhere, Silver you need to make sure you clean up after yourself...if...if you can that is.” Fluttershy said, loseing her confidence at the end. Silver sighed.

“Futtershy, I understand that you think I am making a mess and I am really sorry, but I’ve had more pressing issues, with the fog being a threat, my training needs to be a priority, when I get back, if I’m not about to collaps, I didn’t train hard enough, I need to devote evvery inch of my being into this. If I don’t, the Fog wins! I can’t let myself get worried about some knick-knacks and momentos I have to scatter because I may need them!” Silver said, shaking his head.

Fluttershy frowned “Silver, you act as if cleaning is some arcain magical ritual that will suck your soul out! It takes an hour and if you put even the most minimal effort into retaining it its easy to keep any place clean, Silver I have to put my hoof down, this place needs to be kept clean”

Silver rubbed his temple “Fluts. I know why you are getting angry, but as I said, there are MORE important things to deal with then cleaning. I’m putting MY hoof down...or I would if my head didn’t hurt so much...can we just drop it and move on, I really don’t see the issue.”

It was at that point, that historians would write, that Silver Haze said perhaps the stupidest thing any stallion could say in that situation, some would write that it was the combination Headache/Hangover, or the fact that his natural Alicornian Society had taught him a differing moral set then Equestria followed, most would agree however, it was most likely that his brain was dulled by the cup of liquid bear tranquilizers Silver Haze had mistook for tea and had been chugging during the conversation. Whatever the reason, Silver Hazes next few words were ones that would cause any Stallion to wince in pity, the words every Stallion thought at some point, but none were brave enough to say.
“Besides Fluts, thats what mares are for, Cleaning and Cooking.” Silver said as he tilited his cup back to find it completely empty. He was suddenly really fascinated by the bottom of the cup though, it looked so...magical...

Fluttershy on the other hoof, was simply staring at Silver, a neutral, dead look on her face as she looked at Silver. She said but a single word.

“What.”
“you heard me” said silver, not entirely sure he heard himself.

“I… Silver, i can’t believe you. of all the mean things you’ve ever said, this one takes the cake. I want you to leave this house and don’t come back untill you’re sorry” FLuttershy said, putting her hoof down for real this time. She was fairly tollerent of silver, but this time he went too far.

“but flu-” siver was about to reply but fluttershy cut him off
“OUT. maybe you have some training to do, or animals top scare” said fluttershy.

Silver hung his head and did the walk of shame to the door. he turned just as he left, and was about to say something but the door was shut in his face. “what did i say?” he said softly to himself.
turning away from the door he took a breath “maybe i need to get some fresh air anyways” and he began to walk down the path and into the town.
---
Ponyville, noon
---
Silver walked the streets of ponyvill,e with his eyes on the ground and his head lowered a bit. He’s not entirley sure what he said-- the “tea” hadn’t worn off yet-- but whatever it was, it clearly upset fluts, so he needed to make it up to her, but he wasn’t sure how to do it. So he thought as he walked, and as he looked up to see where he was, he noticed the carsousel Boutique, and he knew that rarity would know what to do. so he bagan to walk over.

As he opend the door, the simmilar bells at the to of the door went off, signaling the fabulous dress unicorn to be summoned.

Rarity sauntered into the room, a tape messure around her neck at a pair of red specticals on her muzzle. She walked over to silver and gave him a hug.

“Silver, darling! How are you? What brings you to my little shoppe? You looking for a new outfit?” Rarity asked?

Silver shook his head and tried to smile, but his heart wasn’t into it.

“Well Rarity, I need some...uh, advice...I think I messed up with Fluttershy...and I need to know how I can make it all better.”

Rarity seemed deep in thought. “Well I can try and help you Silver, I wont know untill you tell me!”

Silver grinned “and I’m not saying a word until the Gossip of ponyville promises not to repeat a word.”

Rarity gasped and put a hoof up to her head in mock offence. “Oh Silver, you think I, Rarity Belle would repeat a word you spoke? About my good friend? Good Haze I am shocked and injured by your words!”

Silver gave her a looked, rasing his eyebrows, causing Rarity to drop the act and roll her eyes. “Fine, very well Silver, cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye. I will not repeat a single word. Now tell me, tell me, TELL ME!” Rarity finished like an excited schoolfilly, causing Silver to chuckle.

“Excited for the jucy details Rarity?” Silver said, Rarity started pouting.

“Can I help it if nothing interesting ever goes on in ponyville? AND NO, the constant threats on the towns safety is not interesting, everyone already knows about it, good gossip on the other hoof…” Rarity trailed off, Silver sighed.

“So Rarity, me and fluttershy were talking about my messy habbits, we were having a normal conversation, then she just exploded and told me to leave, I have no idea what happened!”

Now it was Rarity’s turn to lift an eyebrow in doubt, she knew Silver, he had a habit of running his mouth without thinking, he meant well, but his words didn’t always share his sentiments. She sighed. “Ok Silver, what do you think, just what you think, set her off?

Silver haze sighed, he thought long and hard about it, then shrugged. “I really don’t know Rarity, we were all fine until the end, I mean the last thing I said was that, you know, Cleaning and Cooking is the traditional job of mares, not stallions who had to focus on protecting the land, then she exploded at me!” When Silver looked back up at Rarity, her hooves were buried in her face as she shook her head back and forth, muttering to herself.

Silver looked confused yet again. “What is it? You too? What is the problem everyone has with that sentence?” Rarity looked up and frowned at Silver before speaking.

“Silver Haze, that is the most outdated, untrue, offencive statement ever spoken directly to me in seriousness ever.” Silver haze just looked like he was lost.

“What do you mean? It’s true! Mares trad-” Rarity cut him off.

“Silver, that has never been true in Equestria, back before the tribes united, yes stallions tended to fight and Mares tended to Cook and Clean, but once we were united under Celestia, things changed, now anything a stallion can do, a mare can do as well, what you said was regressive and offencive. Silver, you need to go apologize right now!” Rarity said, causing Silver to dawn on how he messed up.

“Wow, Rarity, I really goofed up this time, thank you so much for enlightening me!” Rarity simply nodded and smiled.

“Anytime darling~ If you ever need anything, my door is always open, now shoo, you have a mare to apologize to.” Rarity said as Silver turned and left the store.

Silver walked fowards and kept his eyes foward, he needed to think of a way to make it up to Fluttershy, now that he understood how he messed up, still how could he make it up to her? how could he right the wrong he committed? How could he make her see that he wanted nothing more then to make it up to her? As silver haze pondered these thoughts, he wandered through ponyville, letting his thoughts guide him aimlessly through the city to wherever he wanted to go, his thoughts eventually led him to ponyville town square where he spent several minutes pondering what to do next as he looked around the market. Feeling a little tiered, he found a spot away from the crowds and sat down. Suddenly silver felt very strang… like some magical things of great power were happening. the feeling became stronger and stronger untill it became intense and almost painfull, like he was being ripped through the dimmensinal space and time, he felt every atom of his being being pulled apart… and just like it began, it suddently stopped, and silver was now stood in the large room in what he recognized was luna’s bedroom.

“what the fuuu…” silver whispered to himself in sheer confusion of what the buck just happend. silver tried to recall if he was knocked out all, but all he can remeber was being trnsported via teleportation.

“Silver? what in equestria are you…” a voice came fro behind. silver noticed this as luna’s voice.
“luna, what is the meaning of this, why was i teleported here?” got up, feeling a bit dizzy whilst doing so.
“my apologies silver… i’ve been working on teleportation portal to ponyville, so the trips would be fast… but i guess my spell was drawn to you… and here you are now.” luna explained.
“oh.. neat” said silver.

The room went awkwardly silent.

“so how’s that working out for you” said silver with a sarcastic grin

“very funny silver” luna scoffed. “for your information, it was going fine unitill my spell locked onto you” said luna.

“wow, i’m more attractive than i thought” bragged silver. it felt like the two were about to agrue like an old maried couple, but then before silver could continue, he was reminded of his sistuation. “luna, i need some help with something”

“and what’s that, silvie” luna asked
“i may have accidentally said something to someone i might not have realized the full implications of” silver said, as he felt himself shirk
“let me guess, you said something that was outdated here but isn’t offensive in alicornia”
Silver nods “you know me so well”
“Well, i don’t know the entire situtation, but whatever it is, you should apologise and remind them you are still learning about this land, and that you didn’t mean it” said luna.

silver nodded “you’re right. getting through cultural barriers is hard… so do i have to take the train back now or what?” said silver, thinking about returning to ponyville.

“i was just about to mention that. watch this” luna turns to what looks like a portal frame, and shoots a magical spell at it. the spell begins to circle to portal frame and enter it, swirling around and expanding, causing a cohearent portal to form. “and there you go. if i did the spell correctly, it should bring you right to ponyville” said luna.

“thanks luna, i’ll be off now.” silver said as he jumped through the portal. once again he felt himself being painlessly pulled apart by a magical force, and reassembled thirty feet in the air above fluttershy’s cottage. Silver didn’t realize he was falling untill about five feet from the roof, in which he quiclly veered up, narrowly missing the roof. he flew around the house and landed in front of the door. He knocked once. no answer. he knocked again, still on answer. “fluttershy? are you there? i want to talk to you about before” said silver. after waiting a while there was still no answer. he finally noticed a small note stuck in the corner of the welcome mat.

Gone out to the town.

-Fluttershy

Silver read the note and got a bright idea. he would clean the house for fluttershy! or at least move around his stuff. SIlver opened the door using his key and got to work…

Silver looked over the piles.

He had decided to use a pile system to get everything clean, it was the easiest way to sort everything where it needed to be.

In one, smaller pile, he had all of Fluttereshy’s stuff, it was mostly stuffies and dresses and animal food. In another, larger pile, he had his stuff, mostly weapons and memory stuff. He sighed as he tried to find room to put things. How did fluttershy live in this place with such little room? it was like the place was designed to NOT hold weapons!

Every single thing seemed to have to be moved. Every sword that he put up needed to be taken down to make room for something else...like food for the animals or whatever. Why was it so hard to find a place for everything when everything was supose to have its place!?!?!

Silver haze groaned as he looked over his, he would admit, a bit too in depth collection of weapons, especally blades. Blades of every shape and size, he only ever used Silver’s Fury, but it never hurt to get a bit of history. He had a blade from every era, blades that had killed kings, dragons...even one infamous blade that was rumored to have been used by the pony who killed thousands of Alicorns durring the fall (However, Rightful sadly told him that the blade Silver had was in fact not only not his, but was far younger then he originally thought, but it was still an interesting blade)

He had simitars, rappiers, Bastard Blades, and Sharpened Knives, Sould bound Short Swords, and Blood stained Claymores. If it had been used to stab and or slice Silver most likely had it. Only problem was, it was hard to find where to put it all.

Silver spent a long time aranging the blades in size, then name, the by the names of it’s creator, then by the names of the individually blade was given before finaly giving up and finding the...perfect place to put them all.

After an hour, Fluttershy walked in and was shocked to find a perfectly cleaned house, with Silver humming an off beat tune as he dusted away.

“s- silver? you did all this?” fluttershy said in amazement

“indeed i did fluttershy… and i’m sorry about what i said earlier, i’ve still not got the strongest grasp on this culture, and my home culture was so different from yours. also you’re right about me being a messy person, but what’s who i am” said silver, swallowing his pride.

“well, i’m glad that you finally matured up and cleaned that house” fluttershy kissed silver, and he kissed back. after a while of making out, fluttershy left to get something out of the closet. silver heard the crash of all his swords in the other room

“Silver!!” he heard fluttershy say angerably

“Well, i hope none of my blades put a ‘hole’ in my apology” silver said with a grin.
