Visiting ponyville/ meeting pinkie pie
“So this must be ponyville, seems unique and looks pretty amazing.” I said as the train was stopping. As it stopped I decided to look around the station, it wasn’t fancy but was still good. “Well I guess I’ll take a look at what this city has to offer.” I said as I started trotting towards the city. The houses were pretty decent, nothing too fancy or old but I’m sure it’s been around for awhile.
I then stopped at a colorful store, it looks like it’s made of candy or something so curious as I was I started to go inside. “Hello and welcome to sugarcube corner!” The pink earth pony said as I went to the counter. Her hair looks similar to mine but mines more puffy, her eyes are blue, her mane and tail also pink, and has three different color balloons as her cutie mark which probably means she’s a party pony. “My name’s pinkie pie and...” she started to hesitate a little as she looked at me. “You must be new here, what’s your name? When is your birthday? How old are you?” She said quickly.
“My name is Alto Harmonic, I am eighteen years old. And no I won’t tell you when my birthday is.” I said as I looked at her while adjusting my glasses.
“Well it’s nice to meet you Alto, I hope you don’t mind my enthusiasm.” She said laughing nervously. I looked around at the place and I wondered if there were any other ponies besides Pinkie pie working here. The inside of the store is just as colorful as it is on the outside. Pinkie read my mind and said “Oh don’t worry I’m not the only one, Mrs.Cake and Mr.Cake are upstairs taking care of the foals Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake.” She said as she signaled upstairs. I started to browse through the food that was in the containers. “Feel free to take your time, but if it takes a awhile you can take a seat at the tables.” She said as she watched me look at the food. After a few moments I spotted the food that I wanted, it was a small cupcake. I didn’t bother to look at the time so if i get a stomachache then that’s on me.
“I want this one.” I said as I pointed to the small cupcake at the corner of the container. Pinkie pie smiled but she raised her eyebrow as if expecting something. I suppose she’s wondering if I wanted to eat here or have it to go. “I’ll have it to go please.” I said as Pinkie handed me a medium sized bag. As I took the bag and put the small cupcake inside it I looked up and she gave me that smile again. I’m not sure why but that smile made me smile if only a little bit. “Here’s ten bits.” I said handing her the amount. Pinkie was a little surprised but she accepted the generous tip I gave her. “You are very welcome pinkie pie.” I said smiling to her. So I guess I feel happy because I’m with pinkie pie, hm that’s interesting because I barely smile but pinkie made it happen somehow.
“Um it was only two bits but thank you very much!” Pinkie said with a big smile. I started to take a seat at a table near the window. “So Alto, do you want to play a game?” She said confidently with a big smile. I stared at the table putting a hoof to my muzzle. Pinkie somehow ran at the speed of lightning to the shelf of all the games she has picking one up then said “how about tic tac toe?” She said looking at me, but started looking at the cupcake. I stared at the cupcake too which was almost finished. Pinkie giggled and said “You’re still not done with it? If I were you that would’ve been gone in under a second.” She said trying her best not to laugh. I started scoffing and took another bite looking back at Pinkie. Pinkie just started laughing and said “haha yeah I know it’s good Alto, you don’t have to say a word.”
Pinkie had a smug smile when she said that so I decided to pretend it wasn’t all that. “I mean it’s ok.” I said taking a final bite of the cupcake. However Pinkie pie still had that smug smile knowing that it was probably the best cupcake I ever ate in equestria. Matter of fact it was, and I don’t know how she does it. “So about that game? Tic tac toe right?” I said giving a small smile at pinkie pie who smiled back. Pinkie pie placed the game on the table, of course we could do it on a piece of paper but Pinkie decided to do a bored game version of it instead. There were a bunch of x and o’s of the pieces, she got the o’s while I got the x’s. I then started giving her the same smug smile she had and said “you don’t stand a chance at me in this game because I’ll be victorious.” Pinkie pie just smiled and rolled her eyes, when I noticed that I said “you’re going to be rolling in defeat when I’m done!” But still Pinkie had that same big smile, but this time she closed her eyes. I started getting a little embarrassed because I’m starting to have fun. I usually barely smile but somehow Pinkie pie made it possible. “What is this? This can’t be happening... is this your doing?” I said accusingly at her.
“I don’t know what you mean Alto, buuuut I think I’ll go first!” Pinkie said pretending she didn’t know the question. She put the o in the middle of the board, while I put the x in the corner. We were both smiling as we started playing the game then she said “you’re welcome Alto!” It was then I started seeing Pinkie pie as a friend.
