Hearths Warming Day is almost upon the village of Ponyville and no two ponies are more excited then Sweetie Belle and Button Mash. For the energetic gamer, it's a chance to get as many new games as he wants, but for Sweetie Belle she's excited because she'll be living a dream. After a year of saving their money, she and her sister are going to the Manehatten Hearths Warming Show where all the best actors, musicians, and performers play for one night only.

However, when disaster strikes leaving Sweetie Belle's dreams shatterd, Button resolves to help his best friend.

"Hey, hot shot! You know me, right? Of course you do! Who doesn't know of the amazing Eddy? So, anyways...I had this great scam all figured out, right? It was the best scam ever, I tell ya! But then something went wrong - probably monobrow's fault, as usual - and now we're stuck in this weirdo land with these even weirder talking rainbow-coloured horses. Great. Still, I guess it's not all bad. New people - or ponies, whatever - means new suckers to fleece, and more money for me! Hey, don't look at me like that! I'm just looking out for my friends, that's all - who says I can't make a little money on the side, eh? Besides, sockhead will probably figure out a way to get us home in no time! What's the worst that could happen before then, huh?"

(Crossover with Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy. In the canon of this story, the events of Season 3 of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic have never happened. The events of Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy's Big Picture Show have never happened, either.)

Sweetie Belle falls in love with the new colt in town, a colt that most ponies would identify him as the average antisocial gaming nerd. To Sweetie however, he's her Prince Blueblood to Rarity (That is before the Gala). He's the colt that she wanted to have by her side. He is Button Mash.
