I find ponies… strange. I say strange because I lack the proper way to describe it. Buy a birdbath and Pegasi and Alicorns show up and take a swim in it. I did not really know what to think of this development; at the time, but it did not bother me; I did want flying creatures to have a reason to come around my flower garden after all… And they did, and still do but that is not entirely the end of it.
Work happened to be slow one day and I asked to go home early; which was granted. when I got home I did the normal, wash up, change, and brew my coffee. “Ah, sweet nectar of life,” I said as I looked out my back window at all the beautiful flowers, the mix of colors, the one that looks kinda like a pony's butt, that other one that…. Wait a moment… backtracking over to my roses I saw a pony, an earth pony pawing? Sure I'll go with that, she appeared to be pawing at the dirt and walking around, checking the flowers and just bending over looking at the flowers… I just stood there a little baffled and not entirely knowing what to think, so I just took a sip of my coffee.
“Just roll with it.” I said to myself watching as two other earth pony’s came into the picture, they spoke to one another, one had a lime green mane and tail I could see from where I was inside the house. The ponies seemed to spread out through the garden one sticking near the roses as the other two went off to paw at the ground around the other flowers. One of them would at times stick their head down below the flowers with their but up in the air. “This is just weird.”
The three ponies left before the time for when I was supposed to arrive back home for the day, I kinda wonder how long this has been happening for honestly.
“Plant a garden they said; maybe put a birdbath in they said. I have a feeling I’m being used.” I mumble to myself as I drain the last bit of coffee from my cup and place the mug within the sink.
After that day I had my hours at work changed around a bit, I now get home two hours before when I used to arrive home; I could now watch as, not just the same three ponies but, at one point Apple Bloom came over and would wonder around the flowers and after a while I would see her sticking her head below the flowers and shaking her rump in the air just like the ponies the other day, and then paw at the dirt with her hooves. “strange.” I said but what’s not strange anymore?
Apple Bloom left about thirty minutes later, heading home I presumed, the flower ponies I first saw did not show up today, but the Pegasi did, Rainbow and a Grey pegasus along with two light lavender ponies, I went out and sit with them for a while, they just had a chat and did general pegasus stuff. Flitter and Cloud Chaser I think two of them were named, they were adorable paddling around in the bath like swans on a lake while the grey pegasus seemingly stood guard over them. He seemed to fluff out his chest and spread his wings when I came out back on the porch with my coffee.
“What are you doing?” I ask in puzzlement.
I stood there and watched them all. Rainbow rolled her eyes and shoved the grey male pegasus with a hoof making him give a near girlish squeal as he scrambled to stay on the edge of the bath causing me to smile slightly. Rainbow then whispered in the gray ones ear causing him to look back and forth between Rainbow and me before coughing into his hoof. “Oh um, sorry about that I was.” clears throat. “Protecting my mares; you know?” he chuckles.
“No problem,” I spoke to them as I sit and drank my coffee. The pegasi seemed to all relax more after my acceptance of them and knowing I would not randomly attack them or something.
I let out a yawn as I went downstairs to get some water, it was well after midnight; the insects were singing in the night and I could see little lights floating around outside in the garden; I seen a figure swimming around within the bath and decided to get some fresh air.
As I went outside the figure turn to me as I leaned up agent a post on the porch just looking at her. “Sup?” The figure blinked before speaking in a rather strange voice.
“hello?” she said.
“Nice night huh?”
“Yes, it is.” The figure turned its slitted eyes towards me blinking her emerald orbs as she stared. “What are you?”
“Human,” I stated simply taking a drink of water.
There was a long silence; the insects even seemed to stop singing their songs into the night. “Are you not afraid of me?”
“Nah,” I say nonchalantly. “This is not the first time I've seen something different in my garden, most likely won’t be the last either,” I said with a shrug. “Stay around as long as you like.” I inclined.
“Hmm, very well, I believe we will, this seems like a nice place to settle down, everything feels so… lovely.” Some of the insects come back, the sound is quite nice in the dark night air.
“Please, be my guests, make yourself at home.” I let out another yawn smacking my lips as little blue lights appear throughout the gardens flowers.
“Thank you, I believe we will.” The insect songs become louder but more in tune as I turn around.
“Well, I’m off to bed… Good night.” I go back inside the door closing behind me.
?_?
Lol. Just....lol.
More? Don't leave on a cliffhanger!
Now all this guy needs is to install a bookcase. One night he'll find twilight wandering in and saying "i heard there was a new library opening up here!" I can just imagine how well that would go.
"Twilight you live in a f**king library! Go home!"
Fucking liar.
CHRYSALIS!
Haha! Gotta be Chrysalis and a swarm of changelings at the end there.
But what was with the earth ponies? Were they weeding or something?
6568513 Or Nightmare Moon.
MOAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Perhaps bodily orientation affects the plant health detectdetection sense?
Keep going! ;)
So, you lied huh? *grabs a baseball bat, wrapped with barbed wire* Give us more of this absolute adorable nonsense if you know whats good for you!
Oh and my money who the nightly visitor is, is on Chrysalis and her Swarm.

Perhaps they were pollenating.
6568429
And perhaps Rarity will show up, looking for new designs or fashion magazines. And maybe a few others will come looking for different books for different things.
6569406 That honestly was kinda the hole point of the story... lol... Atleast for me.... And yea my grammer sucks... Sorry about that. I dont really have an editer at the moment to help with that...
Batponies!
6569625 A intersting idea... I'll look into it... I've been working on the latest chapter for the story already so it will be ready in a few days I think, I dont want to put two chapters out on the same day.
I have also been thinking up some other ideas for a chapter after that. Not sure how many chapters I'll make for this story but we will see how it goes. I dont expect it to be very long; as it was started to be a ONE Shot. But has expanded because everyone seamed to enjoy it.
Thanks for the suggestion!
6569813 god imagine if things from the everfree came out and did things in his garden as well.
hell it could even get weirder as vinyl as a vampony doing something, or octavia as a werepony burying a bone in the garden.
6569872 huuuu if he plants an apple tree he could attract flutterbat... or applejack doing applejack things to the tree.
6569872 Hmm... interesting thoughts... There will most likely not be vampire Vy or Wolfy Tavi, but I have an idea or two for the next chapter which mite be Pluffy who knows... We'll see...
6568564 Nope. Definitely Chrysalis. She has the whole bug thing going on right now.
6568513 I'm with you. Sounds like Chrysalis. Emerald eyes, insects songs then stop when he appeared and the question of fearing her? Totally, Chrysalis And I'm totally cool with that.
6570119 Just like.
"What is Chrysalis doing here?"
"Oh hey Luna!"
"I repeat, what is she doing here?"
"She's taking a bath."
6570253 Yup. Hahaha. His back yard is neutral ground, all are welcomed.
Also, this may not be the last chapter. Didn't explain the earth ponies and there will probably be an idea for unicorns. Will be looking for that chapter. Good luck.
6570295 Imagine the pegasusbath becoming an independent country.
"I WAGE WAR ON EQUESTRI!"
Expands to multiple pegasusbaths.

Writing still bad, ideas still good and funny.
6570986 Yeah, I know my writing sucks for sure... And thanks for liking the idea. I have to admit its what I'm best at is thinking up interesting ideas; just making them convincing is what i'm bad at...
Interesting story, keep up the good work.
Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one - but some just smell worse than others.
I am hoping that's not the end of it. I would love to know why ponies were acting like that in the flower garden, and Chrysalis's appearance was amusing. It leaves too much unanswered to end it like it is though.
Chapter three? Please? Maybe?
It's just that the story is getting better as I read.
What's next, get some mysterious runic garden pillars for cheap, to attract the unicorns?

Liked the Thunderlane scene and I have a story idea, maybe Thunderlane having some competition with an other Pegasus stallion about who is the alpha or something, I don't know
Some of these sentences are real run-ons. I'll advise you to either take a crash course on punctuation, or find an editor that knows his stuff about it.
That, and the overusage of "causing X to". Drop that ASAP, it makes the read sound bad when you see two or three instances on every paragraph.
I do believe time looped!
Huh... nice~ hehe, good show
This is wonderfully bizarre and adorable at the same time. Fun times.
aren't they technically transpasing private property?
I actually laughed out loud a few times while reading this, and that doesn't happen to me very often!
This is such a goofy and awesome story. I hope to see more
Keep sipping that bro. Just... Remember that coffee is important, sip it and then ask.

Lovely story I wonder how big the garden is and if its surrounded by walls Chrysalis? Nice
