WARNING: Honeydew's mouth

“Aww, do we have to?”

A slim pegasus mare whined as she pouted up at the stallion next to her. Honeydew Raindrop huffed and draped a wing across her back as he drew her close to his side. She giggled and nuzzled his cheek. With a flick of his bangs Honeydew arched his neck to the other ponies a few yards away from them; fuckin’ Firefly V. Sparkle and fuckin’ Stinger T. Bee. There was a slight breeze in the air that caused the trees to sway a bit, the smell of the upcoming autumn in the air.

Damn his mothers! They always go behind his back and plan things for him, like this school project shit. They think they can meddle in his life like they did with his other siblings and he would be a’fuckin’ dandy with it.

Firefly and Stinger knew all sorts of nature stuff and where to find, like insects, plants or geographical locations. The two nose picking dorks. Momma Fluttershy thought it was a brilliant idea if she invited them over while Honeydew and his girl were in his room. She thought they were only doing their homework and studying.

Bless her heart.

“It’ll only take a bit, Cherry. Plus, if we just stand back and pretend to be doing something, they’ll do aaaalll the work. Y’know how it goes.” The colt grinned down at her. “I can wing it for the both of us.”

“Will you be writing my essay for me this time, babe?”

“Of course - anything for you.” Honeydew kissed her loudly on the head, drawing the other students’ attention. The changeling mare’s eyes were larger than usual, an herb with a bulbous, purple tip in her claws. She looked unsure. Stinger raised a brow.

Chest feathers fluffed ever so slightly, Honeydew angled Cherry’s head towards him with his left wing. He kissed her again, this time on the lips.

Loudly of course.

Cherry let out a surprised sound - an oh so sweet sound that made Honeydew’s fur around his nape start to stand. The mare raised one of her hooves to put on his chest.

Snirk!

A sound tore him away from his girlfriend, his green eyes snapping angrily towards the treeline. Stinger’s face never changed much, if ever. Only the slight raise of his eyebrows and crease of his mouth could potentially tell one how he was feeling in that moment…and the crease of his mouth was upturned into a smirk. A small twitch of his facial muscles that was gone in a second but was nevertheless caught by Firefly, who giggled into her free hand, and Honeydew Raindrop, who reacted the way he is known for.

By exploding.

“Excuse me? What are ya’ll fucking lookin’ at, assface?” Feathers around his chest, shoulders and neck shot up in a display that was honestly…hilarious if not slightly terrifying. “Are you lookin’ at me and Cherry makin’ out?? Did it get you soakin’ wet? Fuckin’ perverts!” Honeydew brayed, teeth snapping as he took a wide stance. “Peepin’ toms! Degenerates, you and Fireshart!”

Cherry stood back to avoid his wings as they spread. Oh, here he goes.

Honeydew was suddenly in Stinger’s face before the other boy could answer. Stinger let out a small whinny, surprised as pear colored feathers swirled around his head like a swarm of angry bees and he found himself looking into the other colt’s blazing green eyes. He was forced to sit on his haunches as the green colt pressed down on him.

“No teachers here, Stinker Butt. None of mommy’s entourage to keep my hooves from smashing in your face.” Stinger’s lack of bodyguards didn’t escape Honeydew’s attention. “Haaah! Not so smug now, huh asshole?”

Stinger Bee said nothing. His eyes looked over to his friend. She was watching them with shock - standing up and dropping the herbs to the ground. One hand off the ground, Firefly started to approach them. Stinger’s neck fur bristled a bit at the state of her.

“It is fine, Firefly.”

“Oi! I’m talkin’ to you! What? Gonna get a girl to fight for you?” The blonde colt gave a smirk of his own. “A freak o’ nature but a bitch at the fuckin’ end of the day.”

The sting of a hoof slashed into his face.

—

Honeydew gets into a fight for his trashy mouth, shocker. Just like his dear old brother.

Believe it or not, he and Stinger never got into a physical altercation before. Honeydew always was a bully but it never went farther than some insults and quips. He never, ever called Firefly a “bitch” before. He could call Stinger all the names, any adjective his dark little heart pleased. But him going after Firefly never sat right with him but he held back only because of her wishes to not fight.

When Honeydew loses his cool he sort of……reverts back to that twang. The boy tries so hard not to sound like a country bumpkin and he’s successful 80% of the time.

Why Stinger has guards is because he’s the son of two very famous stars, and one is a popstar to boot. Since the rising popularity of stars and celebrities, certain behaviors became more…prominent. IE Stalking, harassing, etc, which warrants the need to have guards for someone who is not royalty. The Mane Six don’t have many problems for the most part, but sometimes Twilight and her children need escorts in places they are not familiar with or at night. Stinger convinced his mom that he didn’t need them around all the time, especially in the woods where he was with Firefly a lot.

Honeydew Raindrop never liked Stinger Bee. He never liked him since Stinger stood up for Firefly one day, thus standing up to his bullying ways and showing zero fear. It's like....Honeydew meant nothing to him. Stinger pretty much stared through him - gaze unwavering as Honeydew attempted to threaten him. The other boy then had turned his back to him to comfort Firefly, who was sobbing. This angered Honeydew greatly, pretty much getting embarrassed in front of his poise of other delinquents. Stinger and Firefly became friends after that day. Honeydew felt...slighted; insulted, almost. He couldn't place his hoof on why he took things so personally with Stinger but he did. It didn't help that Stinger was Rainbowdash's prodigy.

I missed mah booooooys. They're older here but at still teens. In the canon timeline they are preteens/at the end of elementary school. Stinger Bee gains a lot of muscle since training with Rainbowdash, and is quite tall. Honeydew is...imo, shaped like a lanky herding dog. He got cuts in his feathers and some are even missing while Stinger is very well groomed. Both are crushed after by various fillies [and stallions] at school, though.

Honeydew Raindrop is the son of Applejack and Fluttershy, Stinger Bee is the son of Firestreak and Songbird Serenade. Their cutiemarks have been forgotten in this piece cuz I'm lazy.
