A One and a Two and a...

"Three months of winter's coolness—HIC!—and awesome holidaaaaaays!"

Rainbow Dash and Applejack trotted a serpenite path down the cobblestone streets of the Diamond District. Their caterwauling voices echoed against the establishments as they closed one by one. Distressed ponies and locals threw them weary glances and eagerly trotted out of their ways.

"We've kept our hoofsies warm at home!" Applejack was strung between chuckling and singing. She teetered in a wild attempt to keep up with her flying drinking partner. "Time off from work to plaaaaaaay!"

Rainbow Dash took a deep breath then cacophonously bellowed: "But the food we've stored is running out and we can't grow in this cooooooold—"

"Hey!" Applejack's freckles burned. "That's my line!"

"Fine!" Rainbow Dash hiccuped, rubbing the rosy fuzz of her smiling cheek. "You get Rarity's!"

"Oh heck naw!" Applejack belched. "I'll do Fluttershy's!"

"She never sings the intro!"

"Well shoot! I... er... consarn it—"

"Sing the dang chorus already!"

"Yeeeeeehaaa! Chorus!"

"Winter-Wrap up! Winter wrap up!"

"Hahahaha—"

"Let's finish our holiday cheeeeeer!"

"Sing it sugarcube!" Applejack wheezed, chuckled, and teetered some more. "Pretend yer one of them fancy tenors!"

Rainbow Dash melodramatically lowered her voice. "Winter-Wrap uppppp! Winter Wrap upppppppp!"

"Hahahaha—oh lawd!"

"Something something spring is here!" Rainbow Dash narrowly avoided slamming into a lamppost. "Whoah!" She fell.

Applejack swiftly slid in to catch the petite pegasus with her spine. "Whoah there, buckaroo!"

"Haha—I... uh..." Rainbow Dash draped upside down across the farm mare, smiling crookedly. "HIC! I forget the next part..."

"Oh, that's simple!" Applejack took a deep breath as she broke into a brisk canter. "Into the Gala we must go and have the best night everrrrrrrrrrr!"

"Ya stupid apple hick! That's the wrong dang song!"

"Says you!"

"Buuuuuuuuuuuurp!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha!"

Laughing, the two meandered wildly into the urban nothingness.

"Heeeheee—ohhhhhhhhhh you gotta shaaaaaaaare! You gotta caaaaaaaare!"
