Second Attempt: Apples

[kind_to_all]

[ The scroll shows Fluttershy in her cottage, looking incredibly embarrassed. Behind her, the room is completely filled with apples, all the way to the ceiling. ]

Um... Applejack, I picked some of your apples for you... and brought them back here. [ For some reason. And it's something of a hike from the orchard to the cottage. ]

Would somepony mind helping me move them to the barn? Even if it's only a few? I'm-- really sorry to be a bother.

[ The agitated pony looks fretfully around her cluttered cottage, trying to think of something else to say. ] Um... that's all... I ... [ and switches to private. ]


[ To Lyra and the Twilights, she adds: ] Could I... talk to you sometime? Not that it's a rush. Whenever you're free.

It's alright. I'm not offended. [He tilts his head a little, trying to figure out if there was anything he could do to make being around him easier.]

You've had problems with dragons before then?

[kind_to_all]

They're ... well, they're not my strongest point. I've been scared of them - of you, ever since I can remember. Not of you in particular, I mean. Spike's okay because he's just a baby! But you're, well... [ Gulp. ] not.

[Skyfire's ears droop a bit, making him look rather pathetic. He doesn't like that she's afraid of him.]

... Is there anything I can do to... err... make myself less frightening? I don't think I can be made smaller... no matter how nice that would be.
