The Ereri Project!

Ponies

Eren is surprised when he gets to Levi's apartment and finds his boyfriend watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. "Tell me this isn't going to be a thing now," he says.

He notices that the dishes are only half done, as if he stopped in the middle. "What?" Levi asks as the commercial break starts.

Eren facepalms. "Why are you watching My Little Pony?"

"I'm curious about it," Levi replies with a shrug.

"Why?"

"I heard about these people called "Bronies" from Hanji. They're these guys who-"

"I know what they are."

"I wanted to see what the appeal was."

Eren stares at him for a moment. "So," he says, sitting down. "Have you figured it out yet?"

Levi shakes his head. "I think I need to watch a few more."

"How many have you watched so far?"

Levi thinks for a moment. "What time is it?"

"Like six-fifteen, why?"

"I've been watching since noon."

Eren's jaw drops. "You've been watching this all day and you still don't know why people like it?"

Levi shakes his head, nonchalant compared to Eren's complete shock. "I mean, it's really cute and it's kinda funny sometimes but a lot of these characters get on my nerves."

"Like?"

"Pinkie Pie's voice is annoying. And I don't really get why people like Rainbow Dash so much, she's not quite as awesome as everyone seems to think she is."

Eren just shakes his head. "Do you like any of them?"

"Applejack."

"Applejack?"

"You know, the blonde, orange one with the apple cutie mark and the hat."

"I know, but why?"

Levi shrugs. "She's cute."

"You're weird."

"Well excuse me."

They watched the rest of the marathon, both of them trading complaints about how annoying some characters were and how there were too many commercials for a kid's channel.

It wasn't until it was nearly eleven o'clock when the last episode for the night ended that they realized they hadn't eaten dinner.

"Is Applejack still your favorite?" Eren asks as he microwaves a steamable bag of vegetables.

"Yeah," Levi replies, heating up some leftover pork chops, from dinner the night before, on the stove. "But I do like that little pony Scootaloo too."

"I like Spike."

Levi frowns. "Don't you like any actual ponies?"

"Well, I like Applejack's brother."

"Any girl ponies?"

Eren sighs. "You better not laugh."

"Why?"

"Cause I like Pinkie Pie."

Levi eye twitches. "You traitor."

"What?"

"Her voice."

"It doesn't bother me."

Levi just shakes his head and covers the porkchops so they cook a little faster. "The marathon is continuing tomorrow."

"We gonna watch again?"

"Do you want to?"

They stare at each other. In the silence, neither acknowledge how much they wanna watch more of that show.
