This is unusual. Didn't you say you had no interest in playing me? And here I thought you'd preferred to play the old man. I know you already play Lunatic and Fire Emblem.

Well, whatever. I'm not bothered. It's just not like you to change your mind on characters like me. This change of heart is pretty interesting.



Not that I'm complaining, but... If I'm here, our ranking is really going to lower on Hero TV. There's no way our partnership can lose out to Sky High or Blue Rose, but there's a chance it will happen if we're not around to take part in arresting criminals.


I don't really like taking vacations.

HIIIIIIIIIIIII~!

[SUDDENLY, CEILING PONY]

My name's Pinkie Pie! And you're Bunny, right? Kotetsu totally told me all about you! Well, maybe not ALL about you, but he DID say you wanted a cupcake! So I made this one just for you! [She produces a large red-frosted cupcake out of nowhere with a burst of confetti and noise-makers and offers it to him.] If you come to the Satellite, I'll make you another one, because I make EVERY new person there a Welcome Cupcake, but until then we can just call this your Pre-Welcome-Cupcake Cupcake!

[its_not_bunny]

.... [ There are no words that can describe Barnaby's absolute speechlessness. ]

[eyeofwildtiger]

[Oh, yes. Victory is indeed sweet. Like a cupcake.]

[its_not_bunny]

[ when he finally gets it together, he speaks. ]

Thank you very much for your consideration, but I'm not really a cupcake eater. How are you making them without hands?

[sailorlaughter]

[GASP!] NOT a CUPCAKE EATER? How can you just not be a cupcake eater? I mean, SOME ponies I know like cookies or muffins better, but EVERYBODY likes cupcakes at least SOMETIMES!

It's okay! It's okay! I got this! Ummmm...oooh! How about a Pre-Welcome-Something-That-Isn't-A-Cupcake-But-Still-Totally-Yummy Muffin instead? I made it earlier, just because I was bored, but you can totally have it! It's blueberry! [She produces a muffin from the same inexplicable place the cupcake just came from. How about it? Also answering questions is totally less important than making sure everyone's got the right pastry, so HA]

[its_not_bunny]

[ ... He doesn't want to acknowledge that muffin either. ]

It's nothing personal, really, I'd just prefer to eat something that wasn't made with hooves.

[eyeofwildtiger]

Aw, c'mon, Bunny! She washes 'em.

[...looks over at Pinkie] You do wash your hooves, don't you?

[its_not_bunny]

[ ...... ]

[sailorlaughter]

Well, DUH. NO ONE wants to eat food made with dirty hooves!

[its_not_bunny]

That's not really what I was asking.

[eyeofwildtiger]

Aw, just try it. I've had 'em with no problems.

...please?

[its_not_bunny]

[ Well now he has no excuse. When Kotetsu asks something of him like that, he doesn't feel like he can just reject him. ]

... All right, I'll try it.

[eyeofwildtiger]

You won't regret it!

[its_not_bunny]

[ He finally takes the muffin, eyeing it carefully before looking at Kotetsu one more time. He wanted to trust him, but... Pony muffins? Really? This was really abnormal. Giving another sigh, Barnaby takes a small bite, chews and swallows.





And is pleasantly surprised. He blinks. ]


It's good.

[eyeofwildtiger]

Told you so!

[its_not_bunny]

[ Barnaby just stares at Tiger. WHY WAS IT GOOD? THERE'S NO REASON FOR IT TO BE GOOD. ]


Kotetsu, can I speak with you privately?

[eyeofwildtiger]

Huh? Sure. [Takes a couple of steps away from Pinkie] S'up?

[its_not_bunny]

[ He puts a hand on Tiger's shoulder. ]

That was a talking pony. It made muffins and cupcakes.

[eyeofwildtiger]

Yep. You're catching on. ...she's a she, by the way.

[its_not_bunny]

Why are you so calm about this!?

What if Sky High's dog started talking and making pastries!?

[eyeofwildtiger]

Oh, that'd just be silly. Pinkie's talked ever since I met her!

[its_not_bunny]

[ Barnaby sighs in an exasperated manner. ]

[eyeofwildtiger]

Would it help if I told you there were more of them?

[its_not_bunny]

...



Kotetsu, why are you calm about this? She's a pony. She can talk. This isn't normal.

[eyeofwildtiger]

I dunno. Guess I've been up there so long it just feels normal now.
