Description They met on the strangest, craziest, terms.

He heard of the expression "Fall right into one's arms" or something like that. She literally fell on top of him; all hooves and wings (the hell was that!?!) rainbow hair and out of nowhere!

Later, when she turns into a human, the least he could do is go get clothes for her.

Over the weeks, she turns out to be the one, out of all the newcomers, who he gets along with. So, naturally, he is the first to notice that something is wrong.

On days that had bits of cloud littering the sky, he would find her on some of the highest points in the fort looking up at them longingly. (and when he asks her about it, she would just grin and punch his arm playfully)

The one that had been a purple unicorn told the team about the world they had come from; how there were three classes in pony society and that each class had a specific function. Furthermore, each pony had a special talent, like a calling and stuff...he didn't really listen to all that. But he DID know that Rainbow Dash was a pegasus pony in charge of the weather in their town.

It took a few weeks to put two and two together (and after nagging Twilight for more info on RD and Engineer on his insight of things) to come to the conclusion that Dash missed flying.

And he felt sorry for her. She missed home (kinda like him). And she missed what she was. And it probably sucks to hell that you had the ability to fly freely and suddenly, cruel fate takes that away from you. He had a feeling he won't understand that, ever. But to hell, will he allow her to suffer for it.

So on an almost clear night, he takes her to one of the tallest buildings in the compound; and after a while asks; "Hey Dash, wanna know how we humans fly?"

She looks at him like he's crazy. He grins, grabs her hand, begins to run and leaps from the building.

It wasn't flying, he knew that, and every building they landed on broke the illusion of it. But for every leap they did, the sensation was there, and after a while, when her running matched perfectly with his, he saw a hint of a smile.

And that made all the difference.

Scout and RD! are in SO MUCH TROUBLE after that! (but Parkour rocks!)

I wrote this, remembering my best friend in high school. Platonic relationships are one of the most underrated, but most beautiful things in fiction.

I am SO sorry for the lack of BGs, but i wanted to do a seagreen/purple color combination.

Also this is 5 days late and I am REALLY sorry. I posted this on my tumblr earlier.

As a compensation, have some in between sketches!

Three months later, Dash and Scout have a horrible, unforgivable argument. And from that day on, rainbows made Scout cry.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Nothing like a bit of Parkour to get the blood flowing.
