"What are we doing here, Fluttershy?" Twilight asks Fluttershy as the two mares strolled down the path to Anon's house.

"You'll see, Twilight," Fluttershy says. "Anon's been in a mood lately, and I think we need to cheer him up. You remember your line, right?"

Twilight looked at her friend in utter bafflement.

"Uh, yeah?" she says. "But I'm not sure how-"

"Trust me," Fluttershy says with a smile. "I've known anon for at least 40 thousand words. I think I know how to handle him."

"Wait, what?"

"Nothing. Just relax. I got this."

The two mares approach Anon's home, and Fluttershy knocks three times. Twilight stands on the porch nervously as she looks back to Fluttershy.

"I dunno, Fluttershy," Twilight says. "Something about this doesn't seem right. I mean, his home is all dark."

"I suppose it is a darker home," Fluttershy says. "For this time of day, anyway."

Fluttershy knocks three more times. Then the two wait for a minute.

"See, he's not home," Twilight says.

"Nope! He is," Fluttershy replies. "I figured this would happen. Come on."

Fluttershy opens the door to Anon's home and walks inside.

"Fluttershy!" Twilight calls after her. "You can't just walk into his home!"

The pegasus looks back at her, dumbfounded.

"Why?" she asks.

"I... uhm. I don't know. What if he's naked?" Twilight asks.

Fluttershy smiles and shakes her head.

"Oh, silly Twilight. Anon's not naked. He's just dead!"

The pegasus trots on into the home, wearing a wide smile as her friend stands outside the door, confused and her eyes wide.

"Wait, what?" the Princess says, galloping in.

The two girls move upstairs and into the bathroom, and stop once they reach the doorway. Anon lies in a crumpled heap on the floor, not moving, not breathing,parts of his body black, singed, and burned. His mucles are tightened nad contorted in an odd fashion, and large black marks line the walls from electrical burns.

"Just what I thought," Fluttershy says. "Alright, Twilight. Looks like we're prepared."

Twilight's mouth hangs open, her body stiff and rigid.

"Anon... Anon is..."

"Dead, yes," Fluttershy says. "Now then are you going to just stand there or are we going to do something?" Fluttershy says.

The Princess looks to Fluttershy oddly.

"How are you just... handling this so well," Twilight says. "Anon is DEAD!"

"Just watch. Now then. Just like we practiced. And a one. And a two. And a one two three four."

"Wake me up!" Twilight sings.

"WAKE ME UP INSIDE!" Fluttershy calls back.

You leap to your feet magically.

"CAN'T WAKE UP!" you scream.

"WAKE ME UP INSIDE!"

"SAAAAVEEE MEEEE!!"

Twilight stares at you, baffled as you stand your own two feet once again, alive and breathing normally.

"Shit, Fluttershy. I haven't heard that song in forever."

"Is reincarnation your fetish, Anon?" Fluttershy asks happily.

You open your mouth to speak, then close it quickly.

"Wait. Wait a sec. NOW I REMEMBER. SHIT!"

Twilight slowly begins to back out.

"I WENT AND PREPARED THIS WHOLE DRAMATIC DEATH SCENE!" you scream.

Fluttershy nods her head at your words. Twilight opens her mouth, then closes it, looking around at the bathroom.

"I'm just gonna... go," Twilight says, before trotting downstairs.

"I CREATED A LOT OF SUSPENSE! I WORKED REALLY HARD AT THIS ONE!" you say.

"Uh-huh," Fluttershy says happily. "And I knew I could only check for this fetish if you died first."

"SO YOU LET ME DIE?!" you ask.

Fluttershy opens her mouth, then thinks for a second.

"Yes," she says proudly.

You open your mouth then look back down at the tub.

"W-we could always try for necrophilia, Anon," she suggests.

Welp, that's that, I guess.

"Nah. I think we're good. Go home. That's a wrap."

"Okay!" Fluttershy says happily. "I'll see you tomorrow, Anon!"

"See ya, Fluttershy," you call as you head out of your home.

You look down at the mess you've made. Man, now this is slightly irritating. It's going to take, like, an hour to clean all this up. Not to mention the electrical bill. You shrug to yourself.

"Welp, that was dumb. I suppose that's just another day in Equestria!" you say to yourself happily.

My god it took too long to work up to this joke. I'm so sorry to anyone who got worried. Once I realized that this arc was becoming too much, I decided "ABORT. ABORT. NOPE. WE CAN'T DO THIS. END IT NOW."

So yeah, back to normal fluttershorts tomorrow.
