Description "I thought... I don't know what I thought... that I was... less special. It hurt..."
"I'm... not used to having friends I can hold, ponies that want to be around me. I don't... really know what's appropriate, I guess."
"I... I know you didn't mean to hurt me... Sometimes, I act without thinking..."

------------------

Sometimes, a simple act can be taken in a completely wrong way. During those times, it's best to learn all of the facts before jumping to what seems to be the most obvious answer. It's a lesson that Spring Showers had to learn the hard way after stumbling upon what appeared to be a dicey situation, but turned out to be something else entirely. I endeavored to capture what was, without a doubt, going through Spring's mind before she found out what was really going on.

This is what I imagined Spring felt like when she stumbled upon her husband getting, what she felt was, a little too close to a family friend. Being recently wed, her fears are still fairly close to the surface, and as such, are much more easily awakened from seemingly innocuous situations. Yes, this is another drawing from a scene in the RP I'm a part of.

Spring Showers is normally a very happy-go-lucky pony, so seeing her getting utterly despondent was something of a shock when it happened. I couldn't resist drawing this when the #MLP-ATG-Alumni theme for the week was given out: A pony going down; A pony descending. I decided to have some fun and have the image show the theme both metaphorically and literally.

Great story dude and great art too. BTW, this is a true lesson to learn, never go anywhere without a plan.

"Sometimes I wish for falling, wish for the release
Wish for falling through the air, to give me some relief
Because falling's not the problem, when I'm falling I'm at peace
It's only when I hit the ground it causes all the grief."

-Florence Welch

Bacon Mane pony ... great to see you working after all this time ... while the pony seems good I have to say the background got me, really catches the atmosphere well.

Nope, she doesn't die. She and her husband patch things up very quickly, thankfully. Needless to say, it was a rather emotional scene.
Thanks!
