In Which SPark Attempts to be Slightly Less Verbose.

Crayon Caper

“I have three hundred colors, girls!” Pinkie bounced up and down excitedly.

“Meh. Crayons are boring,” said Scootaloo.

“Hey! I like crayons.” That was Sweetie Belle. Apple Bloom just shrugged.

“We’re not just going to color with them!” Pinkie was still bouncing, holding the box and somehow still talking at full, excited volume all the same.

“What else can ya’ do with crayons?” said Apple Bloom. “Ain’t they for coloring?”

“They’re also for cutting into little pieces, and melting between wax paper. I’ll show you! It’s sooooooooooo cool!”

It turned out that, in fact, melting crayons was not cool, but hot.

They didn’t quite set Sugarcube Corner on fire, but it did take Sweetie Belle three days to get all the colored wax out of her mane.

Author's Note:

The first (of six) mini-stories written in less than 90 minutes for my PRETTY PONY PRINCESS Easter Special event!

Prompt was "Crayons, the CMC, and Pinkie" from Bekdontraz

Boilerplate prompt: What could possibly go wrong?

...could fill a whole novel reexamining that one repeatedly, heh.

Oh gods...

Also, idea for a prompt: What have you done, Pinkie?

It popped into my head after reading this and I realized there are a billion possible answers. More, if you allow Pinkie to flip off physics.

4279471 You should come join me next time I do a prompt collab event then. I'll probably have one sometime in the next week or two, since the last one was so much fun.

4279476 You'll need to remind me closer to then. Because I guarantee I'll forget.

Also, feel free to replace "Pinkie" with Twilight. It still works!

EDIT: I just realized that I can send delayed emails to myself! O Wondrous Day, this joy shall be forever unparalléd!

[Nyerguds]

Heehee. This whole thing was tons of fun

[Themaskedferret]

Pfft. That's a plus I suppose XD
