A mildly cranky Earth Mellon zipped her way around the meandering Faun on the spiral walkway within Laisidhiel. Not entirely an uncommon sight for those who recognized her. She was grumpy sometimes. Came with the job, apparently.
Today, Krikit was on very important, official Chieftain business. Her flight was slowed slightly by the rolled parchment she carried bearing the Chieftain's seal and signature upon it in melted, cooled wax. She scanned the doors of every alcove she passed, searching for one in particular before finally stopping before the right one. Here it was. The fauny named 'Fluttershy'. A rather larger alcove if she remembered correctly, despite the single female being its only resident. Correction: its only faun resident. She remembered a special request coming in for that one to receive a larger than normal alcove for a single resident due to her insistence that her pets be allowed to stay with her. All of them.
Clearing her throat, Krikit tucked the parchment under one arm and reached up, knocking three times solidly on the door before calling out, "Miss Fluttershy? Are you in?"

 "Yes Angel, I remembered." Fluttershy cooed softly as she went through the familiar but never dull motions of tending to her spoiled bunny. It seemed lately he, as well as the other animals, were the only things keeping her mind off.... well other things. She had finally managed to forget about it for the moment when a knock sounded at her door.
Thinking it may be the Prince coming to check up on her again, she strolled softly towards the door before she heard the voice. Gulping, Fluttershy bit back a squeak as her hand paused, floating just over the handle of the door.
She knew that voice.... there was no mistaking that voice. She remembered it clearly from that strange day where she found herself somehow sucked into some sort of.... of.... competition to win the Chief's heart.
"Krikit...." she said softly. Extremely softly.
He had found out hadn't he?!! Oh she just knew the rumors had been true! All the things she thought she dreamed up weren't dreams after all! Oh gosh, oh dear, oh great Celestia, what did she do?! She was about to be sent to the dungeon!!
Now silently Weeping, Fluttershy began to crumble when she hadn't even yet opened the door. Angel ran over to her and thumped his foot loudly on the floor, making gestures and rabbit squeaks that only she could understand. When his yellow pegasus friend refused to move, Angel groaned and slapped a paw to his forehead before darting over towards Fuzzy, squeaking even more orders then hopped his way back towards the door.
Tapping Fluttershy on the ankles incessantly, Angel pointed at the door and gave the pegasus a very long hard stare.
Sighing, Fluttershy bit back her tears. "Your right Angel... I can't ignore this forever...." she sighed, nibbling at her bottom lip as she wiped her face clean and ever..... so......sllllllllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooowly.......opened the door.
"Y-y-y-...yes?" she peeped, quieter than a mouse. Through the half open door, the face of a very fuzzy, very large, very brown grumpy bear peered over the yellow Pegasus's shoulder.

As the door started to open, Krikit sighed with relief. Good, Fluttershy was here. She was getting weary of flying all around the Tree looking for folks. This way, she could deliver the Chief's message and then get back to that nap she'd been thinking about all morning. Chief could deliver his own dang--
She paused, looking from the shy pegasus peering around the door, to the looming bear over her shoulder. Krikit's entire response was a slowly lifted eyebrow, meeting the bear's grumpy expression with one of her own, then back to serious face. She was on official business here. She cleared her throat, then held out the sealed, rolled parchment.
"Miss Fluttershy? I have a note for you from the Chieftain."

The color about drained from her face at those words.
A note from the Chieftain."
If the pale yellow pegasus could get any paler, well... she just did. "F-f-for...m-me?!!" she squeaked, one hand reaching out timidly for the scroll, shaking harder than a small leaf in a massive vortex. She gulped and attempted to push back her fear but it was slightly overwhelming. What could Cheif Rais possibly want with her? And through a scroll no less?!
Oh...oh....t-thank you..." she gasped as she finally let her fingers wrap around the paper and draw it back towards her chest. She peered at Krikit around the fuzzy features of... Fuzzy... before glancing back down at the note.
Should she open it?
Yes she should open it! It was from the Chief after all!"
Oh...but it was from the Chief... She wasn't worthy! She Wasn't Worthy!!
Glancing down at a pat on her hoof, Fluttershy blinked at an impatient Angel who was thumping one foot on the ground repeatedly, tiny paws moving in a gesture that demanded Fluttershy open the note and open it quickly. Curiosity was about to kill the rabbit after all and if she wasn't going to read it then he sure as Telrunya was!
"Ok ok Angel...." she attempted to calm him down before her hands slowly began to unfasten the seal and unroll the note. Inch....by.....painful.....inch.

Krikit handed the scroll over to the timid pegasus, but didn't immediately take off. Her duty wasn't quite done, she supposed. Instead, she hovered, waiting as the yellow fauny seemed to take ages removing the wax seal and unrolling the parchment. Great Spirits, girl, get on with it!
The contents of the scroll read as such:
To Miss Fluttershy,
If I am not mistaken, this is the time of year that a certain Hearts and Hooves celebration is held, is it not? If so, I would like to know if you would do me the pleasure of joining me for a picnic lunch tomorrow outside Laisidhiel's gates on the lawn. If this is acceptable, simply send me your answer through Krikit and I will meet you at Laisidhiel's gate tomorrow when the sun is high.
Sincerely,
Chieftain Rais
After giving the pegasus plenty of time to read the scroll in its entirety and process the contents, Krikit gave a bit of an eyeroll, crossing her arms. "You'll have to forgive him. Or at least give him a break. He's clearly really bad at this 'dating' thing."

Fluttershy had managed to finally get the scroll open. Her eyes scanned every word. Slowly and in their entirety. When she managed to finish, not only had color come back to her face but she was now a bright shade of red that put her own pink mane to shame.
Her mouth opened and framed words that stayed stuck within. It seemed to move with a mind of its own though her body produced no vocal sounds whatsoever for the next several seconds or so until finally she sucked in a huge amount of air and quivered.
"A....a....d-d-d-date?!" she squeaked.
Angel bunny froze whatever he was doing and simply stared at Krikit. He slowly tilted his head up to glance at Fluttershy for several seconds before back to Krikit with an unmistakable 'Are you serious?' face.
A wave of emotions washed over the yellow pegasus and she had to use her door frame to stop herself from toppling backwards. "R-r... Rais is... asking me on....a .... date....?" she blinked at the mellon again. This had to be a mistake right?
Her??
Date material??!?!
Fluttershy laughed a nervous giggle before running her hands through her hair. Her mind rushing through an entirely inner silent monologue as she clutched the scroll closer to her chest and heaved in an out. Angel once again thumped the floor impatiently with his back foot, front paws thrusting at her then at Krikit, impatiently bossing her to give an answer.
Fluttershy's first response was to say no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no a million times no but....this was the Chief. She couldn't just.... no him...
Could she?
Tilting her head, Fluttershy nervously glanced up at Krikit, almost half expecting the mellon to answer for her before softly squeaking out a "Y....yes?"
