Rarity accidentally flushes Gummy down the toilet, and Pinkie Pie is not happy. Not happy at all.

Pinkie finds that after years and years of making other ponies happy, she has failed to keep herself happy. She has developed depression and has to learn to cope with it and get better in any possible way. How will she still do what she loves and make ponies happy...when she can't even keep herself happy?

Everyone knows Pinkie Pie and her love of smiles. But why is she so eager to smile? Why is a smile her most valued possession?

For a person to truly value a smile, there has to be an event, a catalyst that makes them value happiness above all else.

For Pinkie Pie, that event was Sunshine; the sick Pegasus.

Some might say that it was a Confluence of Magic. Others might declare it to have been the Will of Discord. Still more might claim that something in the Baker herself was to blame. And some would state that it was something about the dough. Truly, it could have been any of these factors, or a combination of them, but however it happened, its end result was a strange event so unusual, it changed Ponyville forever.

Ever since she was a filly, Pinkie Pie has been visited by a guardian angel. They're always together. She was Pinkie's first friend. But other ponies can't see her like Pinkie can.

Pinkie wishes they could see her.

Pinkie Pie really should have known better, some folks who could see were startled something fierce by her welcome wagon. That poor little filly had no idea what hit her.

And now she has to live with it.

Inspired by a scene from the story ...And it's freaking cold up here.
