"Any aches?"

"None... I think."

"Temperature?"

"Fine... I think."

"Problems eating?"

"No... I think."

Nodding, I checked off the list in satisfaction, smiling over at the pegasus, "You seem to be fine, Fluttershy. Thanks for letting me check up on you."

"Oh, it was no problem." The polite mare replied warmly, returning the expression, "Thank you for visiting to check up on me. I'm glad nothing is out of the ordinary."

Yeah, thank God.

The last few days, things... Happened. The short version being, what they called Vampire Fruit Bats showed up, drinking the juices from the apples on Sweet Apple Acres' trees, which was a crisis to the farmers. Applejack requested our help in dealing with them somehow. Fluttershy suggested a small part of the woods closed off exclusively for the bats so they can drink in content and leave the rest alone - Which I was one-hundred percent behind, just saying - but instead, the bats were rounded up, and Twilight used a spell to cancel out the bat's natural thirst for the apple juices; but also having an effect on Fluttershy too, who had the creatures distracted.

Suffice to say, my previous assumption that "Flutterbat" was a fanmade thing was disproved last night.

And although the shy pegasus was cured from becoming a temporary Vampire Pony, it was better to be safe than sorry. Which was why I opted to check on Fluttershy this morning, writing down my own list of necessary things about the mare to check on so she was in perfect health.

And, upon writing down this list, I was pleased with the progress over learning to write the pony way; those lessons from Twilight were paying off.

"Are you absolutely sure you feel nothing out of the ordinary?"

Fluttershy pondered silently for a moment, before slowly shaking her head, "Nothing that I can tell, sorry. But if I do, I'll let you and our friends know immediately."

"Excellent," I said, happy and relieved the mare was completely back to normal, partially due to the fact Flutterbat actually terrified me up close. I didn't want to be a Vampire.

I'm more of a Werewolf person.

"Any plans today?"

"Oh, yes." Fluttershy responded, counting off her daily activities, "Um, help Mr. and Mrs. Beaver with making their home more comfortable for their babies. Give Mr. Bear his favourite back massage. Make lunch for all my little friends here." Said friends, observing us from their spots in the cottage, beamed at that. "Oh, and make sure Angel gets his bath today; I forgot to wash him after the whole Vampire Fruit Bat event. Oh! And also, I have to check and see how they're doing."

Setting the notepad down, I leaped off my seat and dusted my hoofs together, "Alright then, which one are we doing first?" At her surprised look, I smiled, "Just a precaution, Fluttershy, in case there might still be some lingering effects from last night. Besides, when's the last time I helped you out here?"

The yellow mare returned the smile lightly, "I would love the help, Stardust..."
