Today, Twilight will be narrating the story. Oh lord, that's going to be boring. We'll see. Maybe she'll be really fun and bouncy about being the one to tell the story today. I doubt it. Oh My! Do we agree on something!? Once in a blue moon, the planets do aline.
Twilight had a mission. One from Celestia herself. To find Discord...and tell him he needed to clean his room. Much easier said then done. Oh why do I have to do this? She didn't even know where he was. All she knew was Fluttershy had told her Discord, Pinkie, and Pinkie's grumpy friend Grey Faerie were out on a picnic.
She could only imagine what type of 'picnic' they could be on. Fluttershy had said she would have gone with them but a few sick bunnies had come in that morning. Twilight shook her head, That's Fluttershy for you.
As Twilight neared her destination, she heard music. It was a light melody peppered with the occasional whistle. I knew she'd be boring. Shut up Discord. The music got louder as she followed the path to a clearing lined with trees. There was a long dinning room table covered with different shaped and sized tea sets. There were many different chairs all around the table as well. Some in better condition than others.
Sitting at the head of the table was Discord, with Pinkie to his right (my left), and Grey It's Grey Faerie to you. Grey Faerie to his left (my right). Twilight, I think they get it that his right is your left. Okay, okay. They were all dressed up in fancy attire like they were going to a tea party in Canterlot. Only, the clothes were brightly colored and slightly mismatched.
She could also hear exactly what they were singing. It was something about an Unbirthday Party? I think they mean to say birthday.
"Oh, hello Twilight! Care to join us? We're just about to have a spot of tea." Discord then poured the teapot and the tea turned into a flat disc. He took a bite out of the 'spot' of tea.
"I don't have the time. I'm just here because Princess Celestia has asked me to find you. She needs you to come hom..."
"Oh, none of that! You've got plenty of time. Here, I'll make you a touch more fitting for this fancy get together." He snapped his fingers and suddenly Twilight was in a blue dress with a white apron.
"Hmm, I really wish dear Fluttershy could come. She would have looked much better in that dress." He oh so secretively whispered to Grey.
"Ah agrhee." She said sleepily. You couldn't blame me. I've been working long nights to get my new flavorings just right. It was way too early for me to be up. It was two in the afternoon. Exactly.
"I guess I could stay for a moment." But just when I went to sit down, Discord yelled "Switch!" and they all got up and moved around.
"You're lucky we invited you. It's very rude to sit down without being invited."
"I'll say it's rude. It's very, very rude indeed."
"Very very very rude indeed." Grey picked up her head to say before putting it back down.
"So, if I may ask, why are you guys having a picnic? I can see a cake with candles! Is it someone's birthday?" Twilight was excited, "I'm sorry I didn't bring a gift."
"Birthday? Oh no my dear, this is not a birthday party. This is an Unbirthday Party." Discord said with glee. Aha! See, I'm not the only one who says that. Phh.
"An UnBirthday Party? I did hear you guys singing something like that. I really enjoyed your singing." Twilight remarked. Pinkie was offering her a cup of tea before swiftly pulling it back.
"You enjoyed our singing?" Pinkie's grin spread across her face.
"Oh what a delightful child! I don't often get compliments on my singing. I don't really sing, more like go along with the melody." Discord said. He was so happy he accidentally put his elbow in a tea cup. "Have a cup of tea."
"Indeed the tea! You must have a cup of tea." Pinkie said happily before pouring out a saucer and cup along with tea from the pot. I want that tea pot. It'll be really convenient to be able to pour tea anytime I want. Or even other drinks like hot chocolate! But, I'll probably have to have my own whipped cream. You always forget it. I know, I know though I don't know why. I guess I'm more focused on the chocolate. But I wanted that tea pot. You're interrupting me! Discuss this later. Nee nee Nee nee. You're in-ter-rupt-ing me.
Pinkie was again holding out the tea cup when Twilight asked, "What's an Unbirthday Party?"
"It’s very simple Twilight. Now, thirty days have sept- no, when... an unbirthday, if you have a birthday then you... haha... she doesn’t know what an unbirthday is!" Pinkie said after trying to explain.
"How silly! Ha HA Ha Ha! Ah-hum... I shall ellusinate! Now statistics prove, prove that you’ve one birthday." He held out one finger and all the teapots started to make music again.
"Imagine, just one birthday every year. That only gives me one reason to have a party."
"Ahhh, but there are 364 unbirthdays! Plenty of reasons to party."
"Well, it's not my birthday. So I guess it's my unbirthday too." Twilight said.
"You hear that Dissy! What a small world it is." Pinkie said.
"Well in that case, let's sing!" Discord and Pinkie then sung Twilight a very merry unbirthday.
Grey lifted her head and sang a different version of Twinkle, Twinkle little star. I really don't think she's awake at all.
"Oh that was lovely. Now I was going to tell you..." Twilight started.
"That you need a refill of tea." Pinkie interrupted.
"Well, I haven't had any tea so I can't have anymore." Twilight explained.
"Of course you can! You could always have a refill of nothing." Pinkie explained back.
"No you can'..." Twilight started again.
"Now Twilight, something seems to be bothering you." Discord said over a cup of tea.
"Of course there is! I keep trying to explain why I'm here but you guys keep interrupting me!" She said angered.
"What's going on!? Is the chocolate burning!? Oh my gosh I over slept!" The yelling had woken Grey Faerie.
"No, it's nothing! Quick Cordie, get her some camomile." Pinkie said to calm Grey. Discord got her a cup of tea and Grey face planted back on to the table after drinking a sip.
"Now that's over. I was trying to tell you..."
"Let's change the subject. We don't want to wake Grey again. Hey Twilight! Do you know why a raven is like a writing desk?" Discord asked.
"Because Poe wrote on both." She answered back.
"PPppppeh" Discord spat out his tea, "Cough, no one's actually answered that before."
"Now will you listen to me?"
"Sigh, fine." Discord said solmenly.
"Princess Celestia has asked me to tell you that you need to go back to the castle and clean your room." Twilight said victoriously.
"Careful! She’s stark raving mad!" Pinkie yelled.
"Ahahaha, Discord? Cleaning his room?" Grey woke up to laugh.
"Hey! I could clean it up with a snap."
"Then why don't you?" Twilight asked.
"Maybe because I like it the way it is. It's not messy! She just doesn't like the way I redecorated." Discord humphed. "Tea?" he offered Twilight.
"Ugh! Of all the silly nonsense, this is the stupidest tea party I’ve ever been to in all my life! Well, I’ve had enough nonsense. I’m going home. Straight home." With her mission finished, Twilight threw off the dress and stomped off toward home.
Next time, we get Fluttershy. I agree. I agree with Pinkie. Hey! You never did clean your room. As I just explained and you reiterated, I redecorated. Besides, wasn't your mission only to tell Discord that he needed to undecorate his room. Well... You even said it yourself. Ahh, whatever! It's a bother to the princess so you should remedy it. You're right. Of course I'm...what? You're right. I should redecorate the whole castle so my room matches. Pop Hey! That's not what I said. Discord, Discord! Darn it, he's gone. Ugh, I'm going home.
The next day...
