Author's Note

Once again, if you have not yet read the last chapter of Cards Against Humans and Ponies of All Kind, I would suggest you do so before continuing.

Other than that, have fun!

Also, any custom card that appears in this story will be shown in green text.

Here We Go Again...

Tiny flicks of light dissipated from around me and the 6 ponies standing around me. When everything cleared, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I was standing in the middle of the throne room of Twilight's castle. It looked a bit smaller in real life, but I knew from long ago that everything looked bigger on TV.

"Wow..." I said, taking in the 3-dimensional sights of the throne room for the first time, "This place looks even better in person!"

The purple alicorn beside me giggled. "Thanks!" she replied, her attitude sporting a hefty dose of giddiness, "I know you probably want to see the rest of the place, but I can't wait to play that game again!"

"Yeah! Neither can I!" Rainbow Dash added as she hovered in front of me. The cyan pegasus then gave Twilight her signature competitive look before continuing. "And this time, I'm gonna kick your flank so hard, Twilight!"

"Oh, I don't know about that, Rainbow," Twilight replied, giving Rainbow a coy grin, "After all, I'm inviting some...special guests to come and join us for this next game."

"Wait, huh?" Rainbow and I replied in unison.

"You didn't tell me you were inviting others, Twilight," I spoke.

"Who are you bringing?" Rainbow asked.

"Oh..." Twilight replied, casually dragging her left forehoof on the floor while looking down, "You'll just have to wait and see," she finished with a suggestive smile while looking back up at the pegasus and I. She then turned to face Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rarity and asked, "You four okay sitting this one out? I get the feeling you're not in the mood for two straight games."

"Um...yes, please, Twilight," Fluttershy timidly replied, "That game was really fun toward the end, but I don't know if I can sit through another round just now."

"Same here, Twi," Applejack said, "I gotta get back to the farm. My family doesn't know why I even left."

"Well, I have several orders that I was planning to fill after we got back, so I must be on my way," Rarity spoke.

"Awww..." Pinkie Pie said, her head lowering slightly, "I wish I could play again, but I promised Mr. and Mrs. Cake that I would help them cater an event in Dodge Junction later tonight."

"Sorry, girls," I eventually said, "I wish you could play, too. It was fun while it lasted."

"Why, thank you, darling," Rarity replied as she passed me by on her way out of the room.

"Bye, everypony!" Twilight said, waving goodbye to the four ponies who wouldn't be sticking around. They all said their respective farewells in return and were eventually out of sight.

Once it was just Twilight, Rainbow, and I, I looked down at the black box I was holding in my right hand. "Hey, Twilight," I began to ask, "Would the dining room be a good place to set up?"

"Sure!" the alicorn immediately replied.

With that, plus the excitement I had toward another wonderful game, I began to run out of the throne room before stopping in my tracks almost immediately. As my face sported a comically guilty expression, I turned back to Twilight and asked, "Uhhh...which way do I go?"

Twilight giggled again before pointing her right forehoof down the hall. "Third door on your right," she replied.

"Thanks," I replied before making a beeline for the dining room.

After a long period of shuffling and dividing the cards into random piles, I was all set for another game of Cards Against Humanity. Shortly after I had left the throne room, I heard Twilight call out Spike's name, and as I was headed toward my destination, I saw the young dragon scurry by me. I assumed he was needed to take a letter and send it to somepony, presumably Princess Celestia; however, I personally didn't think that the highest-ranked government official in Equestria would be up for a silly game like this. Then again, I couldn't quite jump to conclusions. She was Celestia, after all. Once that was finished, I just barely heard Twilight tell Spike to go enjoy himself elsewhere, mainly seeing if Rarity needed any help filling that order she had previously mentioned.

Once I had finished setting everything up, I asked Twilight to reduce the size of the dining room table. Even in person, it was still rather big, and I felt that some of us may have a hard time passing cards to each other. Once that was finished, Twilight decided to give me the tour of her castle she previously presumed I wanted, and she was correct on that. As she led me through the massive structure, I couldn't help but think how wonderful it was to actually be in Equestria. Never in my life did I imagine I would get to visit this wonderful land, let alone meet its inhabitants. My life would never be the same after this.

Just as we finished the tour, there was a knock on the door. Twilight gasped in excitement before saying, "They're here!" she immediately rushed to her front door and opened it, but when she did, I was completely taken aback. Standing in the doorway - and eventually walking through - were Celestia, Luna, Cadance, and Discord. My jaw hung slack as I saw them in real life for the first time.

I turned my head to the right and looked Rainbow Dash in the eyes. I could tell that she wasn't expected the draconequus and trio of alicorns to appear, either.

"You made it!" Twilight said to her four guests, "Please come to the dining room!"

"Oh, Twilight you shouldn't have," Discord replied in a tone that easily mocked Rarity's, "You invited us all over for a dinner party, didn't you?"

"Not quite, Discord," Twilight replied.

"Is something wrong, Twilight?" Celestia asked.

"Your letter seemed rather urgent," Luna added.

"Oh, it's just something that I couldn't wait to try with all of you," Twilight replied in a tone that suggested she was up to something. I couldn't help but laugh internally at the others' obliviousness.

"Couldn't wait to try what?" Cadance asked.

"You'll see in a bit, but first, I'd like you to meet someone special." When the purple pony finished speaking, she led the other four over to me. She introduced me to them, and they all introduced themselves in return. It was thrilling to meet four beings from another world that I admired so much.

"You guys wanna head in?" I asked, "I'm sure you'll like what we've got in store for you."

Aside from Twilight, Rainbow, and I, Discord seemed the most eager to get started on whatever we were doing. "Well then, what are we waiting for?" he asked, eagerly, "Let's get this show on the road!"

With that, all seven of us went into Twilight's dining room. Twilight had already gotten a seventh chair set in place in preparation for this, so we were all ready to go.

"Take a seat, everyone," Twilight said.

We all then sat down, and as we did, Discord seemed to get even more excited. "Oh, it can't be!" the draconequus exclaimed, "You brought Cards Against Humanity to Equestria!?"

"Hey, they wanted me to," I replied, gesturing to Rainbow and Twilight on my left.

"I've played this game hundreds of times when I visited your world! Oh, I get such a kick out of it!"

"Wait, you've been to my world before?"

"Well, of course I have! How do you think I know this game so well?" He did have a point, there. After all, he was Discord, so I figured I 'oughta stop questioning his antics and move on with explaining this game to the three whom I assumed had no idea what we were talking about. However, I didn't have to worry about that, as Discord already knew the rules by heart.

"Sooo..." Cadance began after Discord finished explain the rules, "It's just a fill in the blank game?"

"Pretty much," I replied.

"Just wait 'til you see the cards!" Rainbow Dash said, "They're hilarious!"

"Oh?" Luna asked in reply.

"Yeah!" Twilight replied, "This isn't your typical everyday game."

A few seconds of silence ensued before I asked, "So, shall we take 10?"

"Absolutely!" Discord replied as he eagerly reached for his first ten cards. The rest of us followed suit, and I quickly skimmed over my hand to see which cards were god and/or bad.

"Hey, I remember this card!" Dash exclaimed as she looked at her hand, "I'm so gonna beat you Twilight!"

"Once again, Rainbow," Twilight replied in her normal tone as she casually looked through her cards, "We'll see."

Once those two finished speaking, I looked in front of me at the other 3 princesses. They each had wide eyes, and they remained silent for quite some time. Then, all of a sudden, Celestia laughed rather audibly. "Well!" she began, sounding very jovial, "This should be rather amusing!"

"I must say, I have to agree with you, sister!" Luna replied in a tone that was a little louder than her normal speaking voice, but nowhere near the Royal Canterlot Voice.

"Hahaha!" Cadance laughed out loud, "I've been looking everywhere for a game like this! Sure, it's a bit dark and all, but even Shining and I need a break like this once in a while! We won't be able to do this as much once the foal arrives."

Cadance was right. Upon initial inspection, she didn't look pregnant, but I knew something was up. "How far along are you, Cadance?" I asked.

"About 3 months," the pink alicorn replied.

"Cool!" I responded, "So, is everyone ready?"

"You mean ready to kick some purple princess plot?" Rainbow asked in return, "Yeah!" Twilight said nothing, but she at least smiled.

"Oh, yes!" Discord replied, "It's been too long since I've played this game!"

"Wait," I began again, "Who's going first?"

"Well, the rules say that..."

"Don't say it, Discord," I interrupted. My mind couldn't bare to hear the rule out loud.

"Do you wanna just go first again?" Rainbow asked me.

"If that's okay with everyone else," I replied, looking around the table. By the look of their faces, they all seemed okay with it. "Then, yes!" I finished, "Let's do this!"
