It starts where Caballeron stays in contact with Fluttershy and sends her the books he has written just like Daring Do does with Rainbow Dash. One day, he happens to be in Ponyville and decides to hand/hoof deliver the book to her cottage. It just so happens that Discord is having tea with Fluttershy.

The meeting starts off alright, Discord is a little jealous but it's not as bad as the whole thing with Tree Hugger. But once he learns of the circumstances of the friendship between Fluttershy and Caballeron, Discord gets a little antagonistic. He's a little secretive about it - Discord doesn't want Fluttershy upset at him of course - and, surprisingly, he has the help of Fluttershy's animals who too weren't happy at the thought of Fluttershy almost dying in lava. All thanks to Caballeron.

This antagonism doesn't stop at Fluttershy's cottage, it follows Caballeron everywhere. Animals gossip and Discord is chaotic petty. You can probably imagine how this gets in the way of the colt's everyday life, both business and personal life wise.

(I would ask you, dear reader, to imagine random animals inconveniencing Caballeron outside of his home while Discord messes with the pony in his house. A bird ruining an underground deal by revealing their location to the cops. Discord putting a mini cotton candy tornado in Caballeron's house that coats it in chocolate milk and sticks his furniture in random walls.)

It is through this that Caballeron ends up seeking out Ahuizotl, just for the mere hope that his cats aren't passive aggressive to him due to the Fluttershy debacle. Unfortunately, like their master the cats aren't exactly happy to see him so soon; Caballeron is just relieved that they even were listening to him. After a bit of back and forth, they make a deal. They will help Caballeron with the antagonism of the animals (they are not even trying with Discord, that is a whole other beast altogether) as long as he brings back the artefact he has stolen.

He agrees. Though he didn't expect Ahuizotl to suddenly follow him back to his house to see if there were any artefacts there right now. (Okay completely unrelated, but I swear there was an 'i' in 'artefact', am I tripping or is auto correct and Google playing tricks on me?)

The house, while currently devoid of any artefacts, is a horrible mess. Caballeron left it while snapping pineapples made short work of his nice couch. Now, his home is filled with a whole fruit basket variety of angry snacks. Pears, bananas, apples, you name it. After watching Caballeron sink into the ground in despair for a bit, Ahuizotl decides to help out by destroying the fruit, and sometimes eating them.

It also turns out that Daring Do paid Caballeron in her A.K Yearling disguise, something the guys find out as she's struggling against some restraints while Discord watches her. It's a little tense, but after a small exchange, Discord finds to his delight that Ahuizotl likes Fluttershy (as a friend) for her kind nature. So he leaves and turns the fruit back to normal. The house is still messy though.

The trio end up working together to clean up the mess and though it's a little awkward, they make small conversation. It turns out that Daring Do wanted to try another book collaboration with Caballeron as it did sell pretty well after Ahuizolt published his own book. The men also learnt that Daring Do has been reaching out to the museums where she has placed the artefacts to see if they could be moved to another location.

When asked why, she sheepishly admits that she was going to ask Ahuizolt if he wanted to have all the artefacts she took from him back. She was also going to offer for a museum to be made to store the artefacts so that Ahuizolt could protect them all in one place. A little overwhelmed with the offer, Ahuizolt decides to think on it.

They talk until the moon rises, they were simply discussing the things they saw on travels and the books they published. They had finished cleaning ages ago. Because it would take Ahuizolt and Daring pretty long to get back to their homes, Caballeron offers them to stay the night. Which they do.

That's how far I got fully thinking it through. But I like the idea of Caballeron and Daring Do working together to retrieve artefacts or writing books with Ahuizolt. I want them to slowly (but not slow burn slow) go from associates to friends to lovers.
