Ω Cupcake the Fifth | Happy Hearthwarming!

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

[The scene opens on an extremely festive scenes with streamers and cakes and sweets all over the various tables set up and there's a fire merrily crackling in the fireplace behind Pinkie, who is dressed in one of the most festive scarfs anypony is ever likely to see.]

"All right! It's time for singing!"

[Care to join in fellow Ducks?]

[A voice will chime in, happily trying to sing along.]

I'm sorry, I don't know the words.

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

"You don't?!" [Pinkie’s eyes will practically pop out at this information.] " Don't you have Hearth Warming where you are?"

[makewayforroze]

[Head shake.]

I've never heard of it. Is that where you learned the song?

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

"Of course! Every foal learns it!" [Pinkie gives a vigorous nod, then stops.] "Well...maybe not every foal. Some aren't good at singing, like my patents. But Granny Pie taught me when I was older so I can teach you!"

[Ooooo, that sounds fun! Pinkie begins to move her front hooves like a conductor singing the first line.]

"♬ The fire of friendship lives in our hearts
As long as it burns we cannot drift apart ♬

Sing along!"

[makewayforroze]

[Laughing, she'll begin to repeat after her. Luckily, Roze is one of the more gifted.]

Er that should have been parents obviously

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

[One problem with Pinkie Pie, you may end up learning only half of something, she's easily distracted. ]

"Wow! You're a natural! Do you have a musical note for a cutie mark?"

^_^

[makewayforroze]

A cutie mark?

[Roze worries about questioning everything but the vocabulary was new to her.]

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

[There'll be another big gasp.]

"You don't know what a cutie mark is?! Oh no! You haven't discovered your special talent!"

[makewayforroze]

I don't think we have them in my world.

Is that what they do?

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

"They show the world what your special talent is," [Pinkie explains, turning to show her flank to Roze.]

"See! Mine are balloons, and where do you see balloons? Parties!"

[makewayforroze]

So you're very good at parties?

[It's hard not to smile with all her enthusiasm.]

That does make sense.

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

"The very best!" [Pinkie declares without arrogance.] "But! Lots of other ponies are great at parties too. Like my friends!"

[She still looks a little confused.]

"So if you don't have cutie marks where you are, how do you know what your talent is?"

[makewayforroze]

We just try different things until we find things we're good at and enjoy doing.

[didiscareyouyet]

I'll sing if you teach me the words.

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

"No Hearth Warming for you either?! That's horrible!"

[Pinkie shakes her head most disturbed, but not to worry, she's got just the solution.

A Hearth Warming cupcake! Which appears out of thin air in Pinkie’s hoof. She'll teach reach through the screen to offer it to you as well, because that's Pinkie Pie!]

[didiscareyouyet]

[When he first reaches for the cupcake, he's almost in shock, though he snaps out of it.]

Hey, thanks!

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

[Pinkie has never met a rule of physics she couldn't break, so this is no surprise to her.

She's used to surprising others, so she’ll giggle at her new friend’s expression.]

"Enjoy! But seriously, what do you celebrate if not Hearth Warming?"

[didiscareyouyet]

I don't know... Umm..my birthday?

[He'll happily start to eat the sweet.]

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

"Ooo birthdays! I love birthdays!" [Pinkie dances a little with glee.]

"One time I forgot it was mine though and my friends threw me a surprise party. It was so much fun! Well, it was once I realised what it was, I thought they were throwing me a goodbye party!"

[didiscareyouyet]

How do you forget your birthday?! It's the most important part of the year?!

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

[Pinkie giggles.] "I know! Pretty silly of me, wasn't it? But there's sooooo many birthdays to keep track of, sometimes it gets lost in the shuffle. After all, I couldn't let myself forget any of my friend's birthdays, could I?"

[didiscareyouyet]

Nope, you have to celebrate everybody's. That's what makes it so fun!

How old did you turn?

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

"Yep!" [Pinkie gives an enthusiastic nod, so enthusiastic in fact her eyes keep moving even once he head has stopped!] "Ooo! We're going to be such good friends, I know it!"

[She pauses for a moment to recall.] "Umm....hmmm...eighteen! Wow...that's a lot."

[didiscareyouyet]

I hope so! I've only ever talked to other humans before.

Happy Birthday!

[onepointtwentyonewatts]

Aren't you spirited.

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

[Oh yay, a new friend to meet! Have a wave! ]

"Hi! I haven't seen you around before. I'm Pinkie Pie!"

[onepointtwentyonewatts]

Great Scott.

[Gives a wave back he's fairly amused and also fascinated]

Hello, Pinkie Pie. Tell me. How is it you're able to speak English.

[cupcakes_cupcakes]

[Pinkie giggles at the look on the strange man's face, because come on, it's funny!

She cocks her head at his question thoroughly confused.]

"Speak what? I'm speaking normally! And so are you."

[onepointtwentyonewatts]

Prehaps there's some communication translation device built into this muck of a multi verse connectivity.

Nevermind.

I'm Dr. Emmett Brown, pleased to meet you.

Tell me about your world.
