Nightmare Night had come again and now only one question remained, "So what costumes do you plan to wear for Nightmare Night?"
Sitting with me at the table was Dinky, Silver Spoon, and Diamond Tiara.
They all looked at me and I continued, "The crusaders already had their costumes prepared for a while, but I still don't have an idea that I'm satisfied with. I also know that Dinky has no idea of what she wants to be either. So what about the two of you?"
They both growned in frustration and Silver Spoon spoke up, "No we haven't been able to think of anything at all!"
Diamond Tiara looked deep in thought for a moment before shouting out, "That's it!"
Diamond Tiara continued, "We can wear a set of costumes!
Like...
Like..
Like something."
Well I had no better ideas and the others seemed to like it and Dinky suggested, "In that case way don't we dress up as dogs.
Diamond Tiara can be a poodle, and I can be something, and Silver Spoon can be something else, and Amber can be another something."
Diamond Tiara looked between Dinky and myself with a raised eyebrow before Silver Spoon spoke up, "How about we put that on the maybe pile for now.
Say Diamond since you thought of the group set idea why don't you make a suggestion."
Diamond Tiara tapped her chin in though and decided on an idea, "I overheard on of the servants mention that their sister was going to some kind of special party with her special some pony, and that she was planning on wearing a maid outfit...
But the weird thing is that the servant specifically said that she usually wears one but I don't remember seeing any pony wearing one on previous Nightmare Nights?
So, what do you think about us all dressing up as maids?"
While I blushed a the story Dinky and Silver Spoon looked to be considering it so I mentioned, "I think special party was probably code for birds and bees."
The three of them looked confused for a moment before blushing, "Still through, I don't think that it was that bad an idea.
But I feel like we are definitely getting closer to a winning idea."
Dinky suddenly gasped and raised her foreleg as if trying to get called on by a teacher, "Oh! Oh! Oh! Pick me!"
Sliver Spoon rolled her eyes with a smile at Dinkys' antics and said, "You can just say your suggestion Dinky."
Dinky gave an embarrassed smile and chuckled before giving her suggestion, "What if we went as a bowl of fruit.
One of us can be an apple, another can be grapes, another can be a banana, and the last one can be a peach!"
After she finished her second suggestion Dinky looked around the table smiling like an excited puppy.
Silver Spoon smiled and responded, "I like it. You know recently I have been joining Sweetie Belle in her appreciation of show tunes, and not to long ago we saw something called a barber shop quartet performing.
Maybe we can do that?"
Raising from my seat I said, "I am so in for that if we go all out with it!"
Diamond Tiara and Dinky unfortunately did not look all that interested in it.
Dinky asked confused, "Why are you so interested in barber shop quartets?"
Lying I said, "It's not so much that I am interested in barber shop quartets but that they were a popular joke back in my kirin village."
Back to thinking I decided to give my own suggestion, "What if we each dressed up as one of the princesses?"
From the door way we heard Derpy call out, "Really! We can be matchers!"
Standing at the door in a Twilight Sparkle costume was Derpy.
Carrot Top called out to Derpy from the other room, "Derpy, Nightmare Night is not for another few days why are you already wearing your costume?"
Derpy looked confused for a few seconds before replying, "I just don't know what went wrong."
Derpy then walked off too her room likely to change out of her costume.
Looking back at the others I noticed that they did not look super thrilled with the idea.
Curious I asked, "What's wrong with dressing up as the princesses?"
Silver Spoon rolls her eyes at me and says, "There are usually tons of ponies in those kinds of costumes.
Plus how weird would it be if your neighbor dressed up as you for Nightmare Night, Princess Twilight lives like right down the street."
"I suppose that's fair, then how about dressing up as Chrysalis, Sombra, Tirek, and Discord?
I think that I could really pull off a Discord costume."
Suddenly Discords head popped out of a potted plant, "I will sue you for copyright infringement."
He then popped into confetti that fell up to the ceiling.
Raising a brow I said, "Ohh-kay..."
Diamond Tiara chose to lighten the mood suggesting, "Maybe he would be okay with it if he grouped with costumes of other reformed villains?
You know like humm...
That one guy...
What was the name of his brother?
Tireks' I mean...
Also Nightmare Moon...
Not really sure of who else..."
"Well that's a bust.
I really think that I could have pulled off a good Discord costume."
*Nightmare Night*
Cup Cake
*Knock knock knock*
Opening the door I saw four familiar faces, "Well, what have we?
Are you four wearing some kind of fruit suits?"
Amber Wood
Chuckling I replied, "Nope.
Dinky is a fruit basket.
Silver Spoon is a fruit bowl.
Diamond Tiara is a fruit platter.
And me, I'm a fruit salad."
