In the dragon lands, Garble was driving Ember crazy. She was so annoyed with him that she sent him on a “diplomatic mission” to Ponyville. She actually was trying to get him out of her… Hair? Scales?
…
Near Ponyville, Maud happened to be studying the local geology, when she heard a grumbling dragon. She went to the voice and saw Garble.
“Come on!” he complained, “Not even to the pony village, and I have already met a pony!”
Maud was confused. Why had that dragon come to Ponyville when he did not want to meet ponies? He kept grumbling and said, “Why did dragon lord Ember even send me on a diplomatic mission with those annoying weakling ponies?”
Maud felt insulted. “I am not weak, I can crush boulders with my hooves,” she said in her monotone voice.
Garble laughed, “Yeah, right!” he taunted, “I bet you can’t even break a plank of wood!”
Maud walked up to a boulder and bucked it. It mostly crumbled, but a decent sized piece rolled into Ponyville. She heard a colt’s voice cry, “NOOOOOO! MY HIGH SCORES!” in the distance.
She wondered what a high score was, but Garble interrupted that line of thought.
“That ‘boulder’ was probably just those rocks assembled into that shape! You need to break a REAL boulder to impress me!”
This continued on for hours of Maud crushing boulders she chose until Garble got the idea of bringing her a boulder. After a lot of hard work, he managed to push it onto the hill Maud was on, but pushed it too far, and it rolled down the hill and straight into Ponyville. He panicked, because he knew that Ember would be furious that on a diplomatic mission he could have destroyed houses or even hurt ponies.
Maud noticed his distress and asked, “Why are you panicking?” In her monotone voice, it sounded more like a statement.
He wailed. “The dragon lord sent me on a diplomatic mission to Ponyville, and I probably just hurt some ponies. I normally would not care, but I failed, and she will banish me from the dragon lands! Forever!”
She responded, “Normally something worse than this happens every Saturday in Ponyville, at least according to my sister, Pinkie Pie.”
A pink head with a darker pink poofy mane came out of a nearby hole that was far too small for a pony to fit in. She spoke so quickly that Garble couldn’t understand. “Hi Maud, my Pinkie Sense told me that you had said my name. Do you need anything, like a PARTY?”
But Maud understood, and responded with a no.
Pinkie’s head quickly retreated into the hole.
Garble sputtered and examined the hole.
Maud placed a reassuring hoof on his shoulder, telling him, “If you live with her for long enough, you will get used to this sort of thing.”
Garble started back for the dragon lands so that Pinkie Pie—or any other ponies—would not terrify him any more, after muttering about something to the effect of “She couldn’t have fit in there” and “I will never understand ponies.”
…
Seeing Garble returning to the dragon lands, Ember groaned, but Garble just walked right past her, continuing silently to his home, not bothering her at all. He just sat, muttering about pink terror.
…
Maud watched Garble fly away before turning to continue working on her rocks, thinking about how she should go to the dragon lands to study the geology, so she could see what sorts of interesting igneous rocks formed there.
Button Mash vs. Falling rocks
--Lv. 1--
It was an average day in Ponyville for Button Mash, and he was walking towards Ponyville’s outdoor arcade. When he was almost there, he saw a huge rock that hit every single arcade system. “NOOOOOO!” he cried, “MY HIGH SCORES!” He was devastated, because he had the high score on every single system in the arcade. He sniffled, and said, “I worked so hard for all of them.” He then thought that playing Legend of Zelda on his JoyBoy would cheer him up.
--Lv. 2--
When Button mash was going to get his JoyBoy, his propeller beanie was blown off of his head by the wind. When it landed, and he had almost grabbed it, another gust of wind blew it far away. He spent about one hour (in his approximation) he finally found it, but then a boulder rolled over it, and crushed the propeller. He was really sad that his favorite beanie was crushed, but the propeller still spun. He decided that he would get one of his backup propeller beanies from home.
--Lv. 3--
Button Mash was playing on his JoyBoy in Ponyville park, when his mother called him. When he came back, he saw another huge rock headed straight for his JoyBoy. It crushed his JoyBoy, and he cried. “NOOO! NOW HYRULE WILL NEVER BE SAVED FROM THE CLUTCHES OF GANONDORF!” He decided that the only thing to cheer him up, was to play Minecraft and have a milkshake.
--Lv. 4--
When he was playing Minecraft, he took his first drink of his chocolate milkshake, and decided that it was so good, he had to have it all at once. He started drinking really quickly, and got a brain freeze. “AAAAAAARGH!” he shouted, “MY BRAIN IS TRYING TO KILL ME!” When the brain freeze was ending, a gigantic boulder rolled straight into his laptop, crushing it, so he started crying.
--Lv. 5--
At his house, Button Mash’s mother heard him come in the house crying. When she asked him what happened, he told her, “Th-the arcade was crushed by a huge rock, a-and so was my favorite beanie, and e-even my JoyBoy with Legend of Zelda inside, and th-then my laptop was crushed by the biggest boulder I have ever seen!”
His mother decided to fix this. “Take these bits, and go to GameTrot to buy replacements,” she said, giving him a lot of bits. When he was at GameTrot, he saw a giant hole in it, and it had a sign on it that said “Closed for repairs, reopening in a month.” Button Mash started crying immediately.
