* VirginityMakesYouStupid: Fluttershy displays extreme ''naivete'' in trusting Nosey, whose background (a literal traveling salesman) and smarmy ways make his dishonorable intentions fairly obvious to the reader. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], in that Fluttershy ''is'' extremely ''naive'', not so much because she's a virgin as because she has little to no normal ''social'' experience, and her concept of relations between the sexes has largely been formed by sentimental romance novels. [[spoiler:In consequence she loses her virg9nity, but it doesn't make her noticeably better at dealing with stallions -- instead it leaves her utterly-terrified of Ponies in general for years to come]]. Thanks, Nosey.

* DownerEnding: Not only has Fluttershy [[spoiler:lost her virginity to a jerk]], not only did he show [[spoiler:by leaving without even talking to her, throwing away her address, and [[spoiler:tossing aside her freakin' ''[[FreudWasRight flowerpot]]'' which she had given him as a going-away present]], but Fluttershy doesn't even [[spoiler:get the ''point'' (that she should ''be more careful'' about whom she sexually trusts)]]. Instead, she decides that she [[spoiler:is so incomprehensibly and irredeemably ''inferior'' to all other mares that she should just avoid all equine contact]]. Which is where we see her at the start of the series. Yeah, things get better for her in the ''series'', but that must have been a lonely time for her, alleviated only by her occasional meetings with Rainbow Dash and Rarity.

* HeroicBSOD: It isn't shown on-scene, but it's fairly obvious that Fluttershy completely breaks down at the end of the story. Keep in mind that this is ''[[FriendToAllLivingThings Fluttershy]]'' who is ignoring her animals.
-->She gently picked up the fallen flowers in her mouth. They needed to be replanted as quickly as possible. So she turned around and galloped all the way back to her cottage. But when she got there, she dropped the flowers in the yard, went inside, and shut and locked the door behind her. The hens kept milling around the yard for another half hour, waiting for seed to appear, before they gave up and returned to roost in the warmth of their coop.
