22 Butterflies | Video (Possible Action)

[Sprout's face appears onscreen when the feed comes on, looking a bit confused.]

So uh...anyone else having this problem?

[The camera shifts to show Choco trying to calm down a rather frazzled Fluttershy...or at least one could assume it's Fluttershy. The yellow feathered wings are familiar, sure enough, but despite the human clothes, she clearly was not human at the moment. Her flowing tail, the same color as her hair, flicked anxiously as she paced on four hooves instead of two feet. She seemed to mutter an "Oh no..." with each turn, passing by Choco over and over as he tried to talk to her.]

C'mon, Fluttershy...it's nothing to worry about...

[The camera turns back to Sprout.] ...Little help?

((OOC: Can stay video, or can move to action. Most likely she'll be either in her apartment, or on the hospital roof.))

W-Well...

Yes.

Talk about kicking puppies. Who would insult you let alone actually hurt you?

[Even when he didn't know Fluttershy was anything more than a shy teenager he couldn't imagine people would want to hurt her. Forget she was there maybe, but that's not close to the same.]

I-It wasn't his fault, honestly. There was a virus going around that affected people...It made them act so differently than how they normally would. He never would have hurt me if it hadn't been for that...

Virus, huh? Well that would have been. Fun.

Hope you gave him at least a talking to after he was, uh, vaccinated?

Well...we did talk after everyone was back to normal. He was really upset about it, though, so there wasn't really anything I needed to say.

Well. You're a better per-... Uh, pony than I.

But then, the people who ended up breaking bits of me were doing it because they wanted to actually break me. So I guess it isn't the same.

O-Oh...well, yes I...guess that would be different.

Who...Who would want to...hurt you?

[Tony snorts]

Probably a lot more than actually succeeded. But then, I don't play well with others, seems to upset a few people enough to make them want to... Kill you. Not as big a deal as it sounds.

[She still frowned, concerned.] It does sound pretty awful...

[He shrugs with utter dismissal.]

I'm a big name back home, I've done things to paint targets on me. Targets that haven't followed me at least.

It felt worse when it happened, but I handled it. I'm fine, everythings fine. I'm, you know, resourceful.
