Equestria's oldest griffin settlement makes its home in the mountain ridge known simply as Sharfkral-Grat. Things turn complicated for a pair of friends when one of them realizes he sees his best friend as "more than just friends". Despite this love, there are hardships—fear, honor, and law—that keep him from confessing his feelings.

This is set within the universe of my main story, aptly dubbed the "Farringtonverse", but one goal I had with this was that it be able to stand alone to a certain extent. However, if you've read the main story, this definitely expands on some of my headcanon.

The title is German for "Silence is Torture," which is what this story is about. It is also about gay romance. If that offends your sensibilities, consider this a warning to turn around now before you go any farther.

When Amy leaves for her honeymoon after her wedding to Golden Delicious, the Apple Family asks Adam to help on the farm in her stead. Adam wants to prove to Big Macintosh and the Apple Family that he is more than just a fashion designer's assistant.

Flash Sentry is just concluding his first week of training for the Royal Guard and he is doing great. Nothing can break his focus. Especially not the hot Stallion that runs the Chocolate Shop down the street from the Barracks.

He also most certainly does not want to date him. That would be silly.

Though Flash Sentry was silly...
