Description

    Hornette smiled softly as she paused to let the information sink in. “That was a beautiful story, Loco,” she whispered at last. “I really am honoured that you should share it with me – and for taking me to such a sacred spot of yours.”

    Locomotion returned the smile in kind. “I could say the same about having you for a friend,” he murmured fondly.

    There was a long pause, not an awkward silence with one struggling to think of what to say to the other, but the calm, blissful, intimate sort where no words were needed – just warm, gentle affection as blue eyes stared into green. For a fleeting moment, the whole world seemed to fade from existence, and even the soft chirping of crickets and the hooting of distant owls did little to break them out of their trance.

    “Uh...Hornette...” stammered Locomotion after a while.

    “Yes?” asked Hornette softly.

    The red unicorn fell silent again. He couldn't remember what he was about to say he was so lost in her eyes – in fact, he wasn't even sure he knew what to say in the first place. His gaze briefly drifted down towards their plates before he managed to gently coax the words out of his mouth, “...um...do you want that last fritter?” It wasn't quite what he wanted to say, but it was good enough, he thought as he nudged it over with his hoof.

    Hornette looked down at the fritter, visibly touched and blushing deeply, and then back at Locomotion with a warm smile. “Aww, thank you, Loco,” she said gratefully. “That's really sweet of you.”

    Locomotion smiled back shyly. Perhaps this date wasn't such a bad idea after all.


Been well over a year since I published The Power of Two, I realise, but better late than never, right? Anyway, here's my first ever upload of a full illustration from one of my fanfics - in this case, of Loco offering Hornette the last apple fritter towards the end of their late-night picnic. This was a joint effort between myself and Tanya, with me doing most of the lineart while Tanya did the scenery and the colouring.
