Natsu-cat was kind enough to draw my OC MLP Speckle http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5101278/
so I thought it only fair that I return the favour. Theres a tiny story that goes with this piece.
Etoile was about to go for one of her peaceful afternoon strolls around the countryside surrounding ponyville when Speckle came running up to her. Speckle wasn't the brightest little pony in the herd ( even for being a baby pony) but she more than made up for it with her energy and enthusiasm.
"Watcha doin?" Speckle's voice was childish and distorted behind her pacifier, but Etoile could just about make out what she was trying to say. The baby pony grinned up at Etoile knowing exactly what the older pony was doing.
"I am going for a stroll little one" the french lilt to Etoile's voice was clear.
"Can I come? Et-twul. Can I? I can can I peeese?"
The baby bounced up and down stomping her hooves excitedly, she wasn't supposed to be out of the nursery but it was such a lovely day and as long as she was going to be with Etoile she probably wouldn't get in trouble.
"I suppose you can come, just behave okay"
Together they walked, Speckle bombarding Etoile with all sorts of random questions. Etoile smiled as she realised that her peaceful stroll was going to be anything but peaceful.
"Lookit that fing? Wassat?" She pointed her hooves.
"That is a stick" Etoile said patiently.
"OOOh wassat?" Speckle pointed at something else
"That is also a stick" Etoile replied chuckling.
Suddenly Speckle stopped and fell silent, she even backstepped a few paces.
"WAASSAT?" She said in hushed awe pointing to the path up ahead.
Etoile looked.
"That! IS escargot."
Speckle looked puzzled
Etoile corrected herself. "It is a snail little one."
Speckle took a step closer to study the slow moving creature. She was silent for a moment as if deep in thought
"It looks like me" She said all of a sudden. Causing Etoile to burst into laughter.
"I can assure you Speckle, it does not look like you." Etoile tried to calm the distressed looking baby pony
"but...its speckly...like me." Speckle said bluntly, not all that impressed that she had found something as speckly as her. She wanted to be the only speckled thing in the world. She suddenly gasped.
"mebbe its my bigger sista !" She squealed.
Etoile hid her large grin, not wanting to upset the baby any further by explaining that snails and ponys were two different things, and knowing that speckle had always wanted a bigger sister she didnt want to crush the pony's dream.
"Sweetheart maybe we should go back now. It is almost dinner time no?"
Speckle looked up at Etoile then at her new found sister, her tummy suddenly grumbled and she grinned.
"Kay. Can I bring food for my sista bak after?"
She said hopefully. Etoile nodded, knowing that Speckles attention span was so short that by the time they had gotten back and Speckle had eaten she would have probably have forgotten all about her sister snail.
"Of course little one."
This seemed to satisfy Speckle and the two headed back. Speckle was silent for a long while giving Etoile some peace and quiet. Just before they reached the town speckle looked back the way they had come. Her nose wrinkled in disgust for a moment.
"Et-twul, when I grow up am i...gonna be like my sista? I dont fink I wanna look like her"
Etoile's melodic french laugter could be heard clear across ponyville.

Fankyoo I have always loved MLP so its like ingrained in me to draw them LOL
Etoile: *prances around a little, when sees a bright purple tail, sticking out from behind the bush. Smirks, then slowly creeps over, and poke her head over the push* Found you!
Speckle : "AHHHHHH I didnt do-wit. I didnt. Wasn' mee!" She says not sure why she's being sought out, but knowing most of the time she gets blamed for broken things or when theres been walls scribbled on, mainly because most of the time it IS her
Etoile: What are you talking about, little one? I only came to get you, because its nap time.
Speckle : "But..im..not sweepey" *Yawning at the simple suggestion of a nap* "I dont go to sweep ever any more. Nope nope"
Speckle: *perks up* " MISSSHUN??" *feels really suddenly very important* "I can do wit. I CAN. WAT do I do?"
Etoile: Well to do this mission you have to be asleep! And defeat the evil, uh, Sleeperonia! She takes little kid's dreams and replaces them with scarey nightmares! Only YOU can stop her! But only when you're asleep.
Speckle: "OH OH! I gotta hurry, qwick qwick." *Stomps up and down*. "I gotta go ta sweep now I will kick that mean..err..sweepa..watchamacallit pony lady in the head with my supa powa kick!" *Gets over excited , tries to demonstrate my flying ninja kick, only to trip over my own hooves, get tangled in my own tail and end up sprawled across the floor* "hehe...oops"
Etoile giggled: Alright little one, now time to go to bed. Nap time. You can't beat her til you're asleep. *starts walking to the nursery*
Speckle: Canters into the nursery and up to my cot, unable to get in cause the side is currently still up, so I just pace back and forth the length of the cot like a caged animal. Looking back at the doorway waiting for Etoile to get there. "Et-twul! hurry hurry! It's my misshun dontcha know!"
Etoile giggled and walked over, then let her in and tucked her in.
Speckle: Clambering in and under the stars and moons blanket I close my eyes and make snoring noises. With my eyes still tightly shut I call out "RITE!! IM SWEEPIN NOW! I HAFTA FITE NOW!" Then for added effect I throw in a few more snoring noises. Thinking thats what ponies do when they're sleeping
Etoile: No No, little one. You have to be completely asleep before Sleeperonia comes.
Speckle: "OKAY!" *scrunches eyes even tighter* "....now am I sweepin?" *starts to feel doubtful.* ...."I fink im broke"
Etoile: *shakes head* You're not broken. You just need to relax and calm down.
Speckle: Ooohh! *enlightenment dawns as speckle sucks on her binkie* "I hafta be qwiet huh!" She says suddenly realising that nap time is quiet time. She nods in answer to her own question and she whipsers conspiratorally "Yep yep. Qwiet. Shhhh"
Etoile: *gets Speckle her doll, and puts it with her* Now go to sleep.
Speckle: "KAY!" *yawns* "Fankyoo Et-twul. fer helpin me" *yawns again as eyes get heavier* "I will win my misshun. I pommiss"
Fankyoo The story was playing in my head like a cartoon as I was drawing the pic
Heehee, that's a completely adorable story! Speckle is so silly and cute! ^.^
Yeah sparkle is a bit...special...shall we say. She's certainly a bit over the top and hyperactive, but ina sweet stupid way
That story is just too cute and quite funny as well X). Nice work with the picture too. You've been improving quite a bit lately.
Fankyoo for the compliment. several things have clicked into place recently in terms of using GIMP. I finally understood how to use the pen tool properly (ive been doing it wrong for years) I also understood the importance of using different thinkness of lines. And I stuck a background into this one. a rather shoddy background but a background nonetheless. the story wouldnt have worked if they'd just been 2 ponys on a white page with a snail so I was forced to make some kind of backdrop
A cute picture to go with a cute story. Kudos on blending art with writing so well to make seeing the picture twice the fun. I didn't actually think anything of the snail until after the story. Now, when I view it, I will get an extra chuckle about Speckle's "Big Sister." :)
If im at all honest im a writer first and foremost and have always been. I've written sooo many stories (none of them furry related all of them age or mentally regressed related but humans which is why they're not here)
I love stories and artwork is just a story in a different format. I'll prolly be drawing much more of Sparkle so expect several short escapade stories about her.
*hugs*
