Screwball's bizzarre friendship lesson

Screwball stood ready, determined to make new friends. Berry Swirly stood by her side, and she was happy with her progress. She stroked her chin thoughtfully before spotting three ponies walking together, their outfits plain and boring in her eyes.

"Such bland colors," she whispered. "I can change that!"

Screwball turned to Berry Swirly with enthusiasm.

"Heaaayyy best friend!" she greeted warmly. "You wanna help me make BFFs?"

Berry Swirly, always willing to help her best friend, smiled back, her own excitement palpable.

"I love helping you make more swirly best friends! Anything for you, Screwball. So tell me, how are you going to do it?" she asked eagerly.

Screwball rummaged through her mane before successfully producing a device that resembled the shape of a pony. With much fanfare, she presented it to Berry Swirly

"Behold! Look at this thingy!" she claimed, gesturing grandly to the machine in her grasp.

"Let us see what this toy does!" she proposed as she activated the device.

The CMC - now in their 20s and with relatively decent bodies - engaged in some light brainstorming, discussing yet another friendship problem in an effort to assist the children in obtaining their ultimate life goal: a cutie mark.

The CMC - despite being relatively attractive and capable of raising a family - lacked the athletic physique of sports models. This did not, however, prevent them from engaging in their own light form of brainstorming, nor from pursuing their ultimate goal of helping young ones obtain their cutie marks.

Scootaloo wondered aloud, turning to her fellow CMC members and seeking their advice on the matter at hand.

"Okay Applebloom, Sweetiebelle. What do you think would be the best approach for teaching this child the valuable lesson they need to discover their true purpose and obtain their cutie mark?" she inquired, awaiting their input.

As Applebloom and Sweetiebelle mulled over the question, Scootaloo patiently waited for them to arrive at a decision.

"Well," Sweetiebelle ventured. "Maybe we should use... A practical approach. Let the kid experience their purpose in action."

"I think that's a good idea," Applebloom interjected. "Maybe we could take them on an adventure. Something that would allow them to observe their cutie mark talent in action."

Scootaloo considered her fellow CMC members' suggestions before speaking. "I agree." she agreed. "That sounds like the best option."

Before the CMC could further elaborate on their strategy, a cheery voice sounded from some distance away.

"Heeyyy you wanna see a magic trick?" Screwball called out giddily.

The CMC members turned their attention momentarily to the unicorn's playful presence while she waited expectantly for their response.

A sensible voice of reason filled the CMC's surroundings: Scootaloo.

"Sorry! We are super busy and cannot be distracted now," she claimed, her words supported by nods from the other CMC members.

Screwball, unhindered by the CMC's busy schedules, responded: "It's fine, I need a volunteer anyway! That will beeeee..." she trailed off, pointing her gaze toward Applebloom. With no hesitation, Screwball quickly grabbed Applebloom before slamming the mare into a large, cartoon-style flattening machine.

Screwball then molded Applebloom back into shape, achieving a cartoonish physique complete with googly eyes. The result was reminiscent of characters typically featured in Pixar movies. With exaggerated features, Applebloom even sported a curvy physique of an attractive mother figure.

Screwball presented this new version of Applebloom to the CMC team, the unicorn's gaze expectant for their response.

Applebloom's eyes popped out and took a surreal, swirling form. With this complete transformation, the young CMC member effectively attained the abilities and mannerisms of a cartoon character from the 1950s. Even her mane and colors took on Screwball's own appearance, with Applebloom able to change her appearance at will using just her finger.

Screwball stood proudly next to the newly transformed Applebloom, her gaze eager for the CMC's reaction to her work.

The new and improved version of Applebloom stunned her fellow CMC members with her astonishing powers and physical transformation.

"Applebloom!" they cried in unison, the CMC team in a state of distress over the unexpected change in their friend.

"What did you do to her?" Sweetiebelle inquired, her words punctuated by Screwball's unconcerned response.

"No no. It's what I did to your friend." Screwball claimed, her actions quickly followed by Berry Swirly's, who turned Sweetiebelle into a cartoonish version of herself using the same flattening machine.

The full CMC team stood side by side, now each equipped with cartoon powers and bearing Screwball's likeness. Their friendly voices welcomed a new era of CMC teamwork, now with the power to instruct and guide their ponies toward the ultimate goal: obtaining screwball's friendship.

However, as this dream team was forming, Scootaloo stood terrified, staring at her transformed buddies.

"You... what are you.... you did something to my friends! Give them back!!!" she cried in terror, the CMC leader's panic palpable before Screwball's unhindered gaze.

With a confident voice and a playful attitude, Screwball pulled out an object from her mane: a mystical lamp.

"I have something special for you!" she exclaimed before suddenly poofing out of existence, her action simultaneously grabbing at Scootaloo. With little warning or opportunity for resistance, the pegasus' voice was sucked deep within the lamp's interior.

"No! Rainbow Dash HELP! Meeeee" her desperate shouts were soon faded to echoes and then to nothing, her voice and body now trapped within the mystical lamp.

Screwball's energetic optimism was on display as she rubbed the magical lamp and spoke to the being trapped within.

"Come out genie friend!" she declared, her gaze falling upon the form of Scootaloo, who now sported the very same Swirly eyes found on Screwball and the CMC members.

With eyes now swirled and an outfit revealing her figure, Scooty appeared as the most recent member of Screwball's BFF team. The transformed pegasus stood confidently at screwball's side, her own gaze trained on her fellow team member as she posed a question.

"Who do you need me to make your best friend today screwball!" The team's newest member exuded a matured confidence and was clad in an outfit that revealed her attractive body.

With Swirly eyes and a form fitting attire, Scootaloo was ready to assist in Screwball's mission to find new BFFs.

As the CMC team continued its formation, Screwball's eyes fell upon Sweetiebelle and Applebloom, both now bearing her exact appearance and powers. However, the unicorn's attention was quickly drawn toward another target: a new potential BFF.

With this objective in mind, Screwball turned to Sweetietoon and Applethon with a knowing smile. "You both look so hot and perfect," she claimed. "Let me see a bimbo best friend."

Immediately, both toons began altering their forms to fit Screwball's desired description.

The words "bimbo best friend" had the anticipated effect, both Sweetiebelle and Applebloom transforming into the bimbos of Screwball's dreams. Their bodies ballooned in size, their breasts becoming massive and their hair becoming large and fluffy.

"Ah, that's the stuff," Screwball claimed in a satisfied manner as her original BFFs now shared the same body type as her own. The CMC team was now complete, the unicorn's satisfaction evident.

With Screwball's mission to find new BFFs now complete, the CMC team gathered together and let out a joyous cheer.

"Ready to make more friends everyone?" Screwball loudly declared, the team responding with a resounding cheer.

"YES LETS MAKE MORE FRIENDS" the CMC team responded in unison. With their newfound powers and appearance, they were confident in their abilities and ready to help other ponies discover their true purpose and obtain their ultimate goal: BE SCREWBALLS FRIEND.

"Go out and make some more friends!" Screwball shouted playfully. "You know, the kind you make Swirly eyes with!" The CMC were delighted by the idea of having so much fun with their friends, and were already on their way. Meanwhile, Screwball and Berryswirly headed over to Fluttershy's mother's house. They knew they'd get a ton of laughs from the visit, and maybe a few Swirly eyes as well.
