“Wow. What a lovely banded tulip,” Fluttershy said to herself as she spotted a pointed, blue-colored shell. “And in such a rare color, too.” With her tree-trunk sized legs spread as far apart as she could, she bent down and reached into the water, grunting under her breath as her massively obese belly drooped past her buckling knees, nearly touching the cold surface of the ocean.

As soon as she grabbed the shell, Fluttershy sighed as she then began the tedious task of hoisting herself up again, which proved to be a little more difficult due how much her lumbering size constantly weighed her down. Finally standing up straight again, she took a moment to catch her breath before dropping the shell into her bucket and continuing to wade through the shallow water.

It was so much of a demanding work-out for her, it felt like she'd been at it for about an hour, even though it may have only been about 15 minutes. But regardless of how long it’s been, Fluttershy was still eager to keep going. She had a lot of weight to lose, and a lot of shells to find. “Is that a calico scallop I see?” She wondered as she leaned in slightly for a better look over her large body. “Oh, no. It may just be another sand dollar. I already have a dozen of those.”

She continued to move across the shoreline, feeling the sandy water swish and swirl around her footsteps. After spending all morning worrying about how she looked in her new two-piece swimsuit, it was nice to have some way to escape all that.

“Ooh, that’s such a pretty color,” she exclaimed as something in the water caught her eye. Once again going through her exhausting shell-collecting process, she managed to pick up an interesting find. “A pink shark’s eye,” Fluttershy said, bringing it up for a closer inspection. “Funny. It kind of reminds me of-”

SNAP

Cut off by the sound of a camera snapping her picture, Fluttershy quickly looked up to see the flying drone that one of her close friend brought. “Oh, hello there. You must be Twilight’s,” she greeted.
