You and your friend head towards the lively sights of the party occupying the full width of the street. It is filled with ponies having a great time. As you get closer, you can see there are a few different activities taking place all at once. There are a number of ponies that have gathered for a friendly game of frispie. The other section is filled with pony couples dancing in a small circle. And in the very center of the action, Pinkie is doing standup comedy.

She appears to be speaking into a blue scale, but she looks right at you as she does. "This one time, there was a pie and a yak..." You chuckle as you listen, content to do nothing more than enjoy the party. How Pinkie always ran such amazing parties was beyond you, but you're having a good time just soaking up those vibes.

The wind picks up, bringing the scent of a large sweet roll on its tail. Your mouth begins to water. A quick glance around shows a stallion carrying a tray full of freshly baked pastries. Mister Cake! "Well isn't he on time?"

You and your friend start off by talking about them as you head over to the table becoming burdened with delicious snacks. "They sure have great timing. I never noticed how tasty those things were until you got me one." You glance around, looking for some other treats, but mostly eyeing the jeweler's store. "When do they open again?"

Your friend checks the watch she isn't wearing. "I think a week or so?"

You sigh. "Another wait? But there are so many cool pieces in there."

Pinkie zooms up to you. "Oooh, I heard that! You like shiny things?"

"Uh, yeah." You chuckle. "Don't you?"

She shrugs, pointing at her mane. "Sometimes, but I kinda collect whatever catches my eye in the moment, ya know?" She throws an arm over your neck. "Now, Rarity? That mare, she loves herself some shinies!"

You raise a brow at that. "Oh yeah? Does she make jewelry too?"

"No no no." Pinkie waves a hoof in front of her face. "She loves the flashy stuff, but she does fancy dresses and clothes and hats. She's all about style and being pretty."

"Darling!" Rarity presses against your other side, smooshing you between the two. "Are you talking about me? How criminal!" She titters with laughter. "What is this I hear about jewelry?"

Pinkie shoves the scale she was speaking into in your face. "This pony wants to go shopping!"

"Shopping?" Rarity reaches around you to get at that scale. "Now this is a gorgeous piece. In fact, I think it'd go perfectly with a dress I was working on. Pinkie! However do you do it?"

Pinkie buffs her chest with a hoof. "A nice pony fetched that for me. I had a feeling you'd want it. Keep it, and show me what you make when you're done!"

The two kiss, sort of. You get to be the pony in the middle, and each kisses one of your cheeks as if somehow that made their lips meet. You're left burning hot, but you get to enjoy a lovely party with so many friendly ponies.

It was a fine day to be in Ponyville.

The end.
