Twilight Sparkle
Twilight had woken up to the sound of Spike's magic burp. Twilight moaned at being awoken. What did Celestia want that she couldn't come get Twilight since they were both in the same castle?!
"Twilight," exclaimed Spike, "Letter from the princess!" Twilight moaned again. Spike rolled his eyes. "Fine...
My dearest, Twilight,
For part of your Hearth's Warming gift, I would like to invite you to breakfast with the rest of the princesses and Shining Armor. I hope you come to enjoy our Santa_Hooves-shaped pancakes.
Love,
'Tia"
Twilight moaned again. She didn't want to get up from her warm, toasty blankets, even if it meant seeing her BBBFF! Warmth was warmth. It was almost as amazing as chocolate. Hmm... chocolate. But the princess had asked for her; she had to go. Twilight continued her moaning while rolling out of bed. Cold... so. Very. COLD! Twilight's eyes snapped open, and she had a wing-boner. Cold, cold, cold, cold...
"COLD," she screamed. Spike was suddenly clutching and hanging from the ceiling, back arced, pupils different sizes, and tail straight. Twilight lit up her horn. *POP* A gift basket full of assorted gems appeared. "Happy-Hearth's-Warming-Spike-BYE!!! And Twilight ran out the door towards the dining hall. Spike gaped at the basket.
He whistled, "Thank you, Celestia!" He fell off the ceiling with a "oof!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Twilight burst into the dining hall.
She rapidly said, "I'm here, I'm here, I'm here!" Everypony turned in her direction.
"Oh, good! You would've gotten your present late if you weren't," Celestia said. She levitated boxes over to every alicorn and to Shining Armor a box. She set Twilight's in front of the chair she was heading towards. "Alright, everypony. Open them!"
Everypony ripped open their box to each find a sweater. Luna's was light blue with a snowman. Cadence's was yellow with a present. Shining Armor's was dark blue with a Hearth's Warming tree. Twilight's was navy with the Friendship-Heart-of-Fire. Celestia was suddenly wearing a pink sweater with a snowflake on it.
Celestia clapped her hooves like a giddy school-filly, "So, what do you all think?" She smiling sill-li-ly. "I got us all 'Ugly-Hearth's-Warming-sweaters!'"
"Oh, sister," Luna said, "You shouldn't have."
"Nonsense!"
"No. You honestly shouldn't have, sister!" Celestia's smile faltered.
"B-but... I thought..."
"It's okay, Auntie," Cadence said. "Not everypony likes their gifts, but be assured, I like it very much."
Celestia sniffed. "Really?"
"Of course! This is probably the best gift I've ever gotten from anypony besides from Shiny! I usually just get bits or jewelry! I like this far better." Cadence beamed sincerely at Celestia.
The chef walked in. "PANCAKES!!" Havoc broke out.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Twilight was trotting towards her room. Breakfast had been... interesting. 'Tia had started a food-war (not fight), and the sides was Butter verses Syrup. Twilight arrived to find a note on her door.
Dear Twilight Sparkle,
Please meet me in the Royal Canterlot (Indoor) Garden.
Anonymous
Twilight re-read the note several times. Okay? Why would anypony want to meet her alone... Great it's probably one of Rainbow's pranks, but this isn't anyone of my friend's hoof-writing. She trotted towards the indoor garden. She better see who "Anonymous" is...
After a few minutes Twilight arrived at the indoor garden to find... BlueBlood? What did her best childhood friend (besides Shining Armor) want or need? That's when she noticed something off. Bluey BlueBlood didn't have his mane and tail fancy-i-fied. What was going on?
"Um, hey, Twi," he stuttered while shuffling nervously, "How's your Hearth's Warming going?" Twilight was a bit surprised to see BlueBlood nervous.
"Uh, it's good? Blue why'd you ask me here," Twilight asked. BlueBlood looked at the ground. Twilight noticed he didn't have his dress-collar.
"Yeah... Uh, Twi, would you l-like to g-go on a d-date?" She saw BlueBlood brace himself for a type of verbal impact. BlueBlood opened his eyes after a minute or two. Twilight was frozen with thought. "Um, Twilight?" He waved his hoof in front of her face. Nothing happened. He looked around for something small to move out of place. Perfect! A potted-bush. He pushed it less than a millimeter. Twilight unfroze.
"S-sure, Bluey," she said. "Um, when?" BlueBlood hadn't thought this far so he didn't know.
"Um, how about... at 5:30 p.m?"
"Okay..."
BlueBlood smiled. "See you then, Twi!"
"Um, okay?" And Twilight was alone as BlueBlood left. Twilight blushed as she realized what had happened. "SQUEEE!!!"
Pinkie Pie
Pinkie woke up to... a PARTY! Hi, Pinkie. Hey, DiscordFan! So, how was your Christmas? Wait, you know what Christmas is? Well, yeah! Everybody does! Um, well... I got all the gifts I wanted so, uh, I'm pretty good! That's great for you! I hope I get everything I want! What's that? For all my friends to be happy. DUHH!! Haha! Okay, Pinkie, let me continue the story. Okay! See 'ya, DiscordFan!
Ahem... Pinkie woke up to a party. After that she bounced to the Royal Kitchen to make Santa_Hooves-shaped pancakes. Then she joined in a food-war over what's better: Butter or Syrup. Hmm... Silky, delicious syrup. DiscordFan, c'mon! Continue the story! Right! After that, Pinkie put presents in each of her friends room and gave Spike a pink! gem. Pinkie... Sorry! Yes, okay! And finally Pinkie annoyed DiscordFan while she was telling the story.
WOW!! That was a great ending, and it was much shorter than Twilight's story!
Rarity
Rarity woke up to a knocking on her door.
"I'm coming, darling! Please wait," she said. Rarity ran a brush through her mane and put mascara on. More knocking. "I'm almost ready, darling!" She trotted over to the door and opened it. Fancy Pants was standing there. "Oh, Fancy Pants! How nice to see you again!"
"As to you, Lady Rarity," he replied.
"So what brings you here?"
"Well, we've been going out for a few months, and I've been wondering..." He pulled out a small purple velvet box... "Will you marry me, Rarity Belle?" Rarity gazed at the ring presented before her. It a silver with a diamond.
"Oh, Fancy Pants! Of course I'll marry you! You're generous, kind, handsome, and such a gentlecolt. Yes! I'll say 'yes!'" Rarity leaped to Fancy Pants and hugged him. Fancy Pants was a bit surprised, but returned the embrace.
Applejack
Applejack woke up at dawn (as usual) and made herself cinnamon pancakes topped with apple slices and some honey. A perfect breakfast for Apple family member (or just Applejack). She ate quietly. Then she got her gifts for her friends: a book on apples for Twilight, apple seeds for Fluttershy, rare pink candy apple seeds for Pinkie, a diamond apple for Rarity (not edible), and a few barrels full of Zap Apple Cider for Rainbow. (Apple-themed gifts. What a surprise.)
As a gift to herself, Applejack relaxed the rest of the day.
Rainbow Dash
Rainbow woke up to find six barrels of Zap Apple Cider outside her door. Cider... CIDER!! Let's be honest, can I say anything else about Rainbow's Hearth's Warming?
