Today's Horoscope (Virgo): Expect the unexpected today.

Daytime

I wake up with severe morning wood.

Twilight, unfortunately, notices. "Flash!" she grumbles, slapping me playfully upside the head. "Not right now, you perv!" Shaking her head, she heads down to the second floor to shower and get dressed. I sniff myself and realize I need a shower too, so I head to the bathroom.

I open the door and literally run into a very naked Maud, who's drying her hair with her towel. She doesn't even budge a millimeter.

"Good morning," she says. She looks down at my groin. "You're hard." She pauses, then studies her own nipples, which are hard enough to cut diamonds. "I'm hard." She blinks once, slowly. "Like a rock."

I have absolutely no idea what to say to that...

"Shower's yours," Maud says. She pushes past me and heads for her room. Idly, I note that her breasts barely move when she walks, even though they're larger than Pinkie's; also, her skin is rough like granite. Is she made of stone or something...? It would explain a lot...

After breakfast, Shining Armor and Night Light go out to put tarps over the cars in advance of the blizzard. The rest of us watch the weather news in the lounge.

The doorbell rings. "Who's making a surprise visit this time?" Twilight wonders.

I head to the door and answer it. It's a delivery driver. "Package for Flash Sentry," he says, holding out his tablet and stylus for me to sign.

I wasn't expecting a package...

I sign for it. The driver brings in a large box and sets it down. "Merry Christmas," he says before hurrying to his van and driving off.

I carry the package into the lounge. It's a little on the heavy side...

"What's that?" Twilight asks.

"Dunno," I say. I look at the label; it's from one of the larger online stores. "Everything I ordered came in already..."

My phone rings. It's Mom. "Hey," I say.

"Hi hon, how's it going?"

"Fine," I say. "We're about to get snowed in. How are you?"

"Fine...you got the package just now, right?"

Oh, so that's what it is... "Yeah, it just came," I say.

"Go ahead and open it early if you want," Mom says. "There's stuff in there for your friends, too. You're going to Baltimare again, right?"

"No, we're staying in Canterlot," I say. "Twi's parents came down because of the ice storm and the blizzard."

"Oh, okay. So her family's there with you?"

"Yeah, and a couple others."

"Good...I hope you have a good Christmas. We'll call you on Christmas!"

"Okay. Thanks, Mom."

"You're welcome, hon. Love you."

"Love you too, Mom." I hang up and look around at everyone. "It's from my folks," I say.

Shining Armor and Night Light come back in and walk into the lounge, rubbing their hands and arms for warmth. "What was that delivery?" Shining Armor asks.

"Package from my folks," I repeat. "Mom said to go ahead and open it because there's something in there that's for all of you too."

"Well that's nice of them," Velvet says.

I open the box and start unpacking it. Two of the items inside are gift-wrapped and have tags:

To: Flash
From: Mom & Dad

I put these under the tree with everything else.

"You're not opening those now?" Twilight asks.

I shrug. "They're Christmas presents, I'll open them on Christmas." I pull out the next thing in the box: a large package of fancy chocolates. I put this on the coffee table. There's another box of candy under it, which I also place on the table.

Underneath that are two assortments of smoked meats and cheeses. "Well, guess we have some snacking to do," I say.

"Oooh, I love summer sausage and cheese," Night Light says.

"Me too," Shining Armor says.

"Then you're welcome to it," Velvet says.

I laugh. "If we can guard it from Twilight," I say.

Twilight shrugs. "Actually, not really big on man snacks," she says. "I might taste some of it, but you, Dad, and Shiny can have that stuff." She brightens. "Love candy though!"

"Man snacks?" I ask, raising an eyebrow.

"You know," Twilight says, waving her hands expressively. "Man snacks. Jerky and dry summer sausage and those weird little crumbly cheeses and such. They're man snacks."

Pinkie opens her mouth to say something...

"If you say 'man meat', I'm ending you," Twilight says.

Pinkie snaps her mouth closed. We all laugh.

The front windows of the dorm begin to rattle. Shining Armor pulls out his phone and checks the weather app. He grimaces. "Here we go," he says.

We all head to the windows to look outside. It's white out there. The snow is just starting to blow in, but it's blowing sideways and heavy. The rushing noise of the wind is picking up...even inside the dorm, we can hear it.

"I'll go make us all some hot chocolate," Velvet says.

"I'll help," Pinkie offers.

"Wish there was a fireplace in the dorm," Cadance says.

We decide to spend the day in the lounge watching television, playing board games, and snacking.

Evening

Twilight spends the night with me again. We turn in early, snuggling up together in bed and listening to the wind outside until we fall asleep. More than once, I cop a feel; Twilight doesn't protest, instead snuggling closer each time.
