> Phil looked up at Flash as he puffed on his cigarette, then turned his attention back to the water. "You're gonna lose that trout, anklebiter," he said, watching as the fish in question lost interest in Flash's bait and turned away.

> "It's not about catching fish, Phil," Flash said, nonetheless tugging the line and trying to get the trout's attention once more. "It's just about the time spent together. The memories." He sighed as the trout decided that it had other places to be and swam on. A misty look passed over his face as his eyes stared through the water, no longer truly seeing it.

> Phil stared at the pegasus for a bit, then draped an arm over his shoulders and gave him a squeeze. Flash blinked away a few tears and smiled back at him. "Thanks. You always know what to say."

> "Mm-hmm," Phillip smiled quietly, taking another drag and turning to exhale the smoke away from Flash.

About a month ago, I made a model of Phillip Finder, the OC of my good friend [PonyJosiah13](/profiles/PonyJosiah13). Not only did I model the mane and tail, but I also made some of his accessories, like his trademark baton. One of the more difficult things to model was the anthro version of his fishing vest. I figured that more people would want to use this piece of clothing, so I decided to upload it as a [public download](https://discord.com/channels/571085006466711572/578037082035978240/911816671352721428) in the NexGen team's Discord server. I made this picture as a preview for that download.

A big thanks to PonyJosiah13 once again for writing the small story snippet to go along with this picture!
