The Wheel and the Butterfly
A Dan X Pinkie Pie saga
Part 2 Dan Vs. Pinkie Pie
Epilogue
-oooooo-
Dan awoke with an irritated grumble, sitting up in bed and rubbing his eyes.
Mr. Mumbles, likewise, sat up from her spot curled next to Dan, stretched, and jumped off the bed.
It had taken a while, but he had gotten used to the near constant noise of the firing range across the street.
What was new was the sounds of whimpering from his living room that now accompanied all the gunfire. He would have simply closed his door, but that would also mean shutting Mr. Mumbles off from her litter box in the bathroom.
Clad in a black “JERK” shirt and white boxers with thin, red, vertical stripes, Dan made his way through the open door into the living room.
Mr. Mumbles was sitting in front of a white quivering boxed shaped thing that was leaning against the couch, she looked up at Dan with a short “Meow”.
Dan examined the scene. Pinkie had obviously removed the couch cushions and arranged the three around herself as some sort of crude barrier, while covering herself with a sheet.
Dan sighed at how absolutely pathetic it all looked.
Pinkie slowly removed the sheet from over her head, revealing her curly pink hair, bandaged forehead, and an evening attire consisting of pink pajamas.
She looked up at Dan with her big, blue eyes, fright having set shop in them from the constant gunfire. “H…Hi Dan.” She stammered out. “Did I”–a shot from a higher caliber weapon rang out, causing Pinkie to give a startled “Eeeee” and flinch–"Did I wake you? I’m sorry, I’ll try to cup my hands over my mouth…”
“What the heck do you call this?” Dan said in a rather irritated tone of voice, motioning with both hands to the three couch cushions Pinkie had arranged around herself.
Pinkie looked down. “Fort Pinkie Pie?” she offered, looking back up at Dan with a sheepish smile.
Dan smacked his palm against his face and shook his head, “This is…this is just sad.” He disturbed the structure with his foot, causing it to topple around Pinkie.
Pinkie’s lower lip quivered as she clutched the sheet around her. She began to tear up slightly.
Dan walked off back into his bedroom, grumbling. There was a grunt of Dan straining, a muffled “thump”, and Dan slowly emerged dragging his mattress behind him.
Pinkie looked up in confusion.
“Move!” Dan commanded. “And get that crate out of the way, while you’re at it."
Pinkie quickly grabbed the couch cushions and pushed Dan's makeshift coffee table out of the way as Dan plopped the mattress in front of the barren couch.
“Great,” Dan said, his tone turning to something a bit calmer and even. “Now help me move the foosball table. I think it’ll make a perfect entrance.”
Pinkie gleefully helped Dan arrange furniture, cushions, throw pillows, blankets, and sheets until the two had arranged everything into a respectable looking mini-structure inside the apartment.
Once 'Fort Dan Pie' was complete, the two crawled under the foosball table and onto the mattress, a blanket and a pillow each.
Dan yawned and rolled over, pulling his cover over himself.
Facing the wall composed of random bits of wooden furniture and throw pillows, he sleepily called out, “Goodnight Pinkie.”
Pinkie sat up for a second, regarding Dan with her eyes.
“Dan?” she quietly asked.
Dan turned his body and face her, his emerald-green eyes searching for her sky-blue ones in the darkness. “Yeah, Pinkie?” he replied.
Pinkie smiled warmly. “You’re the best.”
Dan smiled up at her. “I know.”
Mr. Mumbles trotted in from the entrance, and curled up in between the two. Pinkie Pie leaned her head on the pillow facing Dan and quickly fell asleep, the fear of the gunfire having been defeated by Dan’s kind act.
Dan also drifted off facing Pinkie. Soon he was in a deep, serene sleep. The most peaceful rest he had in many, many years.

Few errors here but it's late and I have to be up early tomorrow so fuck it.

It's so nice to see Dan finally have a dynamic personality.
DA FEELZIES IS MAKING MAH HEART MELT!
GAH! M-MUH FEELS!
This is the most amazing fanfic I've ever read, and because of it, you have started me on my Dan Vs. and PinkiexDan infactuation. Thank you very much.
And I fuckin love building forts in my house.
I bet they'll wake up to find they've been spooning.
AWWWWWWW~ soooo cute~
Oh my... Such epilogue. Much cute. Some revise.
I ship it like fed-x
4534346 So cheesy.
I just realized... The abbreviation for a Dan and Pinkie Pie ship is known as Die
4654771
And not a correction!
Thanks for the ones you gave me. Sorry about replying to each one. I'm trying to mark what I've done.
Hopefully I can catch up with all the corrections MythrilMoth has given me soon to mitigate you having to look at much of my earlier, error filled stuff.
4654804 Y'know, I just realized something. I have NO idea what Dan's last name is.
4659407
It's Mandel, the show has it printed on his Driver's license in a few places, I believe.
I never expected to get a 'HNNNNNNGH!' moment out of a story involving Dan of all people.
4654771 It'd be Dinkie, or Pan, wouldn't it? Or, the whole thing would be Dinkie Mie or Pan Pandel.
And now I have finished chapter 13! Yay! Only one hundred... thirty... eight... chapters... to go... I'm gonna die.
4871843 Yeeeessss...YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
D'àaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw. So sweet!
I have never seen shipping so hard in my life.
Not even Snu Snu has this level of ship without full on dating.
I might just have a heart attack while reading this fic.
I just got diabetes from the cuteness of this chapter and I couldn't be happier about it. This story is a work of art and has just taken the #1 Favorite spot on my list.
the feelz are strong with this one.
just tooooo cute cant stop reading i just cant 14 somthing to go
Eeeeee! This is adorable!
Kawaii Desu.
Omg! The cute hurts! But feels good! Make more!
Pure sugar is not as sweet as this.
Awww, that was sweet.
Loved it man, nicely done!
Cat be like, "you ain't doing the nasty!"
AKA the fun cave from Fuffle Puff tales
I have a fatal instance of diabeetus now.
:)
This story's gonna kill me with Adorabeties. ????????????
4871843
Right there with ya
That was SOOOO good! Everything is so good, the way Dan is written feels a hundred percent accurate to his character. The sub plot between Chris and his wife pack in the feels. Dan reaching the breaking point with Pinkie Pie there and solidifying their friendship, this chapter tying it all together with a nice little bow.
How dare you make my eyeballs spring a leak, by the way.
lol I'm not even reading this story on Fimfiction, I downloaded it as a Epub file to read with my Ereader.
But I had to comment for some reason.
...there needs to be art of Fort Dan Pie.
Awww...Dan isn't so bad after all. I do think he's a bad influence on Pinkie Pie, though.
