Letter 75

YAY!

WOW!

YOU’RE INVITED
(NO WAY!)
TO TWILIGHT SPARKLE’S PITY PARTY!

BRING A FRIEND!

CAN’T WAIT!

SO MUCH FUN!

---

Dear Princesses Celestia And Luna,

You are cordially invited to Twilight Sparkle’s very first Pity Party! (Woo!) It’s a momentous occasion to mark her transition from independent mare to prisoner in her own home. Everypony’s gonna be there, so you should too!

Location: Wherever Twilight happens to be at the moment. (Probably the library in Ponyville, but who knows where the evening will take us?)

Time: Right now! We’re gonna party until the police shut us down or Twilight’s mom arrives! That only gives us a couple hours, so you better hurry!

Dress code: You can dress up, down, or all around—as long as you’re comfy!

Gifts: Don’t need ‘em! The only present Twilight wants is freedom from her mortal cage, but since she can’t have that, the next best thing is a night with her friends!

Snacks: You bet your pretty princess patooties we got snacks! Cupcakes, pancakes, cheesecakes, jello shots, fruitcakes—you name it, we got it! There’s even gonna be funny fudge! (Woah!)

So what are you waiting for? Come on over, the party’s already started!

Poor Twiggles, for the (apparently) first time she has to suffer actual consequences for her inability to function like a sane pony.

[FTR2017]

What impresses me most is that this letter seems legit.

Nothing will stop the party pony from partying.

I do wonder if she puts the 'fun' in 'funeral' though.

[krayne447]

Ponks the last thing mauve mania needs are jello shots

[tm2dragon]

The answer to the question "how is 2Merr possibly going to make a response both funny and believable?" Pinkie Pie. How did I not see that coming?

[Voltaje]

Ha, pinky, putting salt in he wound, I don't think twilight would like that kind of party XD.

[DJSnakeBit3]

"Funny" Fudge huh? You had my curiosity, but now you have my attention.

[FrostTheWolf]

Time: Right now! We’re gonna party until the police shut us down or Twilight’s mom arrives! That only gives us a couple hours, so you better hurry!

Just imagine if that just has Celestia accelerate when Velvet would arrive. Shit will hit the fan if it did

[meerkat8472]

Is this Pinkie being passive agggressive? It almost sounds like she's saying 'this is your fault'. Also, didn't she kind of have a personal pity party when she walked in on the Flutterorgy?

[FTKnight]

…. I swear, every few chapters I wish I has enough long story writing skills (and focus) to fill out the slice of life between these letters...

[Matoal]

Heheh. Sonic reference.

[Pickleless]

Anon yucking it up.
Then slowly getting horrified after Velvet takes interest in correcting his behavior after reading his letters.

[darthrex]

I gotta say, this 2 author semi unconnected (Im not entirely clear how much 2Merr and Snow are directly collaborating, so Im gonna assume they writing the letters with some amount of communication) has lead to some really interesting emergent storytelling. The fact that 2 different authors are writing for Anon and Celestia with frankly whiplash inducing tonal shifts between the two really sells that one side is Celestia and one is Anon. Between the 2 authors Twilight is coming across as this barely restrained magical weapon that Celestia keeps as a student as much to protect Equestria from Twilight as anything else.

Also if Twilight is at all representative of Celestia's usual students, no wonder they end up turning evil.

According to the Dictionary of Pinkie (uoᴉʇᴉpǝ ǝqnʇ ɐzzᴉd ɐɯɯɐƃ ǝsnʇqo)*, -eral is a suffix that can be applied to fun-, but must not be unless absolutely necessary, as it changes the root definition of fun to 'a dreary, gray vacuum that sucks all traces of fun into an unreachable, inescapable space.

*obtuse gamma pizza tube edition (Pinkie was spending a weekend with Discord and they wrote the Dictionary of Pinkie together. This was Pinkie's idea, Discord wanted to put each word in a different transformative state and a different language. He also wanted pizza to be spaghetti, and he wanted to write the word in Wingdings with Papyrus font because he’s Discord, but Pinkie refused. If most ponies saw a droplet, a dingbat, the symbols for Cancer the astral crab of unity, Capricorn the astral goat of renewal, Aquarius the astral dolphin of passion, and Scorpio the astral scorpion of the fall harvest, a pair of lozenges, and the symbol for Pisces the astral fish of fertility in sequence, they’d think it was a sign of some kind, rather than the word spaghetti.)

[korat56]

Pinky when Anon said twilight was having a pity party he did not mean it literally.

[sgtnolisten]

Funny...
Fudge...

Why is nobody talking about this???

[2Merr]

That was a lower case pity party. We’re breaking out the capital letters for this one.

[2Merr]

9900953
We talk a little bit if I would like a certain kind of response (or lack thereof) for a joke, or if he wants to bounce an idea off me, but that’s it. Most of the time we’re flying blind and hoping something funny hits the windshield.

[howard035]

The funny fudge is reserved for Twilight, the secret ingredient is her medicine!

[Kirtai]

You are cordially to Twilight Sparkle’s very first Pity Party!

Missing "invited"

[HB_DS2013]

Only Pinkie will make a big deal out of a pity party.

[BCB]

Honestly I can imagine Anon writing this instead of pinkie if he was in a particularly sarcastic mood.

[-Pinkamena_Pie-]

....
Oops?

[Alicon Glactistar]

Twilight deserves this.

Funny Fudge...HAH
better way of saying Pot Brownies
They should be named Funny Fudge

[Bronzer]

It’s a momentous occasion to mark her transition from independent mare to prisoner in her own home.

That's the spirit!
