Magnus looked around still unsure of even what had happened…all he remembered was a blur of pink, a torrent of words and ginger bread looking house, well that’s what he thought it looked like as he started to sit up.
“Hi I’m glad you’re awake for some reason you passed out weird isn’t it, I mean what pony passes out at their own welcoming party!” Blinking his eyes against the room he sat in it looked….festive, balloons floated up almost covering the entire celling of the room blocking it from view, streamers hung and where tied to almost every conceivable location and a large cake coated in pink frosting sat in the center of the table.
“When did you make all this up, if I may ask?” the pink pony bounced in place giving him a huge smile that seemed to threaten to devour her entire face “I always have a party set up just in case silly!” she winked and Magnus could only shrug at the apparently boundless energy of this pony.
“I’m sure you went through a lot of trouble but I’m a busy pony and don’t have time for….parties besides I’m sure their pointless anyway ” pinkie’s incessant bouncing suddenly stopped as if somepony hit a switch and she just sat there a sad look on her face as she stares at him sullenly “what. How can a party be pointless…it makes ponies happy and what pony doesn’t like to be happy, I think there’s something wrong if you don’t like being happy!” starting to bounce madly again in circles “It’s also my special talent, and what could be better than making ponies happy, do you have a party pony where you come from oh I bet she would be just like me only…reichy maybe reichest? The clearly insane pink pony shrugged and started to march around the room in circles like the circles she had seen from before when he had arrived drawing an open mouthed gap from Magnus.
“Are you always like this?” he waves his hoof toward her indicating her as she…somehow stopped in midair and looked at him putting a hoof on her chin while magically floating back down “I guess so, I never thought about it and everypony hasn’t really asked me about it” giving him another of those over large smiles about to restart her bouncing episodes again before he stoped her quickly.
“Stop...” taking a deep breath “look I don’t want a party I just wanted a place to stay, while we stayed in this town, now if you continue then I’m going to have to find a new place to stay alright?” Pinkie’s face almost drooped at his words trying to make sense of them while not showing her obvious disappointment at the fact her party had been rejected, why didn’t he like them no pony hated her parties she just couldn’t make any sense of it.
Magnus looked at Pinkie and shook his head more than a little concerned about this pony he was going to be staying with. “Well I’m going to go and get some sleep, it was a long day” when she didn’t say anything back he sighed and walked off upstairs.
As Magnus closed the door to his room Pinkie stood up instantly as if something had bitten her “I got it gummy!” shouting at the small green alligator that had appeared from under one of the many piles of balloons and streamers “I didn’t make this a good enough party for somepony like him to get into parties, so all I have to do is try harder and soon he’ll come around and have fun!” restarting the bouncing as gummy stared blankly forward apparently not caring much “Thanks for giving me the idea gummy I have to plan more surprise attack parties!” once again grinning from ear to ear she bounced off leaving gummy among the party decorations as he contently bite a balloon to no effect.
Up in his room Magnus sat down on the bed shaking his head still trying to make sense of what he just saw and questioning this particular pony’s sanity, but it wasn’t his problem that wasn’t his job he thought to himself as he pulled out a book and some notes on the bed. “Well…seems like the place I should start is the Library, better find out as much as I can about the local area and what can be used against these..” he thought for a moment for the best word to describe these ponies he found himself surrounded by, when a large thud erupted below him knocking something that looked like a picture from the wall.
Letting out another sigh figuring exactly who that could have been but why did it sound like a cannon? Once again choosing to ignore the complete randomness from his hostess back to his bag and seeing the rich Reich drink most likely Bow put in there, he kept saying he should lighten up and stop being such a smartass, the dark brown bottle looked almost appealing to him at this point but he pushed it away and sighed laying down on the bed “Confound these ponies…they will drive me to drinking..”
