Intro:
Tell Nightshade to NOT devour all the food. When she protests that the party's for them, tell her she can only eat half of the food at the party at most.
You let Night Shade run around with the others, and tell her to keep her appetite down.
As you look around at all the party guest wondering on what to do, you see Nightshade... drooling at something. You look at her worriedly and ask,
"Uh... sweetie. Are you okay? You're... uh... losing saliva."
Nightshade just nods her head dumbly. You look at her with increased worry when you see her lick her lips in a hungry fashion and ask,
"Uh... Honey, what are you staring at?"
She just points ahead and says in Neighponese.
"Tabemono, eikō no tabemono! (Food, Glorious Food)"
You look at Nightshade in confusion as you start to look towards where she's pointing while saying,
"Food? What food are you looking a-... Holy Mother of Luna..."
You too start to drool at the food display set up. You feel like your about to die and go to heaven at just the site of it. Your so amazed that you start to mumble out all the food you see...
"A double-decker ice cream fudge cake, extra-spicy veggie tacos with habanero hot sauce, jelly babies, cookie dough ice cream with extra cookies, Sweet Apple Arc's Apple Cider (I thought they ran out... oh well), and even my favorite dessert; Apple Crisp a la mode..."
The floor is literally covered in your and Nightshade's drool, causing any and all nearby ponies to back away in disgust. You snap out of it as you grab Nightshade and say,
"Sweetie. No matter how badly we want to, we must resist the urge to eat all that delicious, tasty, delectable food, Okay! We must resist!"
Nightshade looks at you confused and asks,
"But Daddy, isn't this our party? Shouldn't we be allowed to eat all that good looking food?"
You look at her blanking while thinking,
Oh Luna she's right! This is our party, we should be able to eat all the food for ourselves! No! We must save the food for the other party goers! Nos, we's needs the foods. Nos, the foods musts goes to the partiers! Nos! Yes! Nos! Yes!
You stop your insane thoughts as you tell Nightshade,
"Okay, all that food there. We'll divided it in half. One for us, the other for the other party goers. Of that half, you get half the cake, the jelly babies, and the cookie dough ice cream. I'll get the other half of the cake, the spicy veggie tacos, and the Apple Crisp a la mode. We'll share the cider, deal?"
You put your hoof out, and Nightshade shakes it vigorously and says,
"Deal Daddy!"
You then shove her towards the CMC, who moved away to get into the party feel as you say,
"Have fun Sweetie!"
Nightshade smiles and walks towards her friends. When she's with her friends, you make a mad dash for the food table while shouting,
"MOVE B****! GET OUT THE WAY! THE FOOD IS MINE! MOVE OUT OF THE WAY OR I WILL BUCKING MOW YOU DOWN!"
Quite a few ponies didn't move in time...
Find out you've already built-up a bit of a reputation as an "eccentric" due to your actions in the past few days.
You grab as much food as you can carry in your front hooves (although your scarf fell in the punch), claim a section of the table for yourself, and start to chow down. As you do, you overhear ponies talking,
"Ew, look at him eat."
"That is the coolest dude ever! He blew up the Super Cider machine all by himself!"
"I heard he was 'plowing Applejack's field' if you know what I mean..."
That's Big Red's job. I just patch things and buck apple trees. you think obliviously.
"Really? I heard he's in a secret relationship with Rainbow Dash!"
Ew...
"I heard he has nightly threesomes with Vinyl and Octavia."
*Spurt*
"I heard he's been wearing the same clothes since he got here, and he popped up as soon as Discord and the Offender disappeared."
You would have gotten nervous at that last one, but you were in too much bliss from that slice of Apple Crisp you stuffed into your mouth...
ONE GORGING LATER
Notice a blue unicorn with an hourglass Cutie Mark and interact with her in hopes of finding a connection to the Doctor. You find out her name is Colgate Minuette and she's Ponyville's dentist (you then remember that she's one of your ex-bosses from when you briefly worked as a janitor for her), good friends with Berry Punch (you suspect possibly more...), and when she asks you how often you and your daughter brush and floss, you reply never which horrifies her and causes her to give you two toothbrushes, floss, and a big tube of toothpaste.
"2 Toothbrushes"
"Container of Floss"
"Tube of Toothpaste"
Added to the Inventory
Also find out that Lyra and Colgate really hate changelings because they were bridesmaids at the Royal Wedding, but got mind-controlled by Chrysalis and long story short, they didn't get to be bridesmaids anymore (even more reason to keep your changeling-ness top secret)
You've just finished the last of your 4th bottle of cider, when you see something strange...
A mare with a hour-glass cutie mare.
You stare at the blue mare in confusion and think,
What the... Only the Doctor has that cutie mark! Oh, maybe she knows him or something, that or she's just a fan of the show. Hmmmm, well I've eaten my quarter of the food already, might as well introduce myself. She does look familiar...
And with that you walk over to the blue mare...
A COUPLE MINUTES LATER
"Huh... that was awkward as all heck..."
We now find you leaning against a wall in thought. You found out the mare's name was Colgate Minuette and she doesn't know the Doctor (she's just a Whoovian who got a tattoo of his cutie mark tattooed onto her flank and even pointed out which Doctors your clothes are drawn from), but she knew you as she was one of your ex-bosses (the dentist one, where you worked as a janitor and scared off her patients by off-key singing "The Dentist Song"). You also found out she's close friends with Berry Punch and is like a aunt to Berry's daughter, but she started to blush like a mad-mare when she mentioned Berry's name, but you just shrug it off.
But the most awkward thing you found out about her was... she really hates changelings. Yeah, apparently her and Lyra were supposed to be bridesmaids for Cadance, but then they were put under mind control by your ex-queen, and then the invasion happened... Long story short, they couldn't be royal bridesmaids any more. And when you told her you and Nightshade never floss or brush, you swore she was going to explode right there. Luckily all she did was give you some toothpaste, toothbrushes, and floss,
"2 Toothbrushes"
"Container of Floss"
"Tube of Toothpaste"
Added to the Inventory
"I swear to Luna if I ever get married (which I hopefully will) I'm making sure I only invite my grandbuggy to it. Alot less drama that way..."
You say to yourself with hopefully. As you're about to head back to the food table, you see...
Go and do the dinosaur— Wait, that's been done in the original comment driven story. Okay, er...
In the background, Nightshade danced the day out with a lamp decoration on her head. She's now Lampshade.
Nightshade dancing like there's no tomorrow while wearing a lamp decoration on her head. You can't help but chuckle and say,
"Heheheh, looks like Nightshade has become... Lampshade."
You look around in confusion looking for the source of that outburst, but you eventually just shrug your shoulders and ignore it. Suddenly...
you sense for only a second a changelling, but thinking it was only your imagination, you leave it. After that you see that you lost sight of the CMC, when you listen something
You hear this in the back of your mind,
You look around in surprise as you think,
Is that... the changeling signal call that sounds just like the Yautja from Predator? But that's impossible, the changelings are gone, blasted off to who knows where- You know what, it's probably just my imagination getting to me, I probably jus-oh... look who's here!
You stop your worried thinking as you shrug it off and see...
You start mingling and you see that Vinyl has her sound system set up in front of the dance floor. You go to say hi to her.
Vinyl: Sup Tennant? Couldn't stay away from me that long could ya? (winks)
You: Heh heh (blushing), thanks for coming.
Vinyl: Well I would've come anyway even if I wasn't working, Pinkie's parties are da bomb.
You: You mean you didn't bring this stuff just for me? Ha ha ha (Joking)
Vinyl: (giggles) Nah, Pinkie and I have a trade agreement when it comes to throwing parties.
You: Nice
Vinyl: Heck ya it is, I get to show off my new songs, and party all the time. Not to mention all the free booze and food I get to stock up on at the end of every gig, I haven't had to buy food for nearly 3 months.
You: Whoa, I might have to get a deal like that, what with my daughter's appetite
Vinyl: (giggles) well anyway, enjoy the party man, I gotta get back to the wubs
You: Alright, see ya
Vinyl setting up her sound system in front of the dance floor. You decide to go and say hi to her.
"Hi Vinyl!"
She turns towards you and smiles,
"Sup Tennant? Couldn't stay away from me that long could ya?"
She lowers her shades and winks at you causing you to blush as you reply,
"Heh heh, thanks for coming."
"Well I would've come anyway even if I wasn't working, Pinkie's parties are da bomb!"
"You mean you didn't bring this stuff just for 'eccentric' old me?"
Vinyl chuckles before replying,
"Nah, Pinkie and I have a trade agreement when it comes to throwing parties."
"Nice."
"Hay ya it is! I get to show off my new songs and party all the time. Not to mention all the free booze and food I get to stock up on at the end of every gig, I haven't had to buy food for nearly 3 months."
"Whoa, I might have to get a deal like that, what with my daughter's huge appetite."
"Well anyway, enjoy the party man, I got wubs to bring and basses to drop!"
"Alright, see ya"
"And BTW, it's 'DJ Pon-3' when I'm at work." she says before getting back to work,
You start to walk away when you feel your scarf catching on something which pulls you down by the neck. You re-catch your breath and you look up to see...
Talk with Spike. When she starts crushing on Nightshade, distract him with Rarity (who the DFV comments is an insecure unicorn who would have made a good host in another timeline...)
Spike!
He looks at you in surprise before smiling and saying,
"Sorry man, I didn't see your scarf there." as he helps you up.
"Thanks." you say as he helps you up "Anything new?"
"Meh, same old same old. Although I swore somepony tried to burn down the library earlier today."
"Yeah..." you say as you rub your hoof behind your head nervously, but you notice Spike is looking at Nightshade while blushing. Fatherly instincts kicking in, you quickly proclaim,
"Hey look Spike! That pony over there clearly needs more punch!" and shove Spike towards the nearest pony. Spike snaps out of it and refocuses his blushing on the pony you shoved him towards which turns out to be...
Tacky McStabby Flank. AKA Rarity.
I sense strong insecurities in that unicorn. She would have made for a fine host...
You feel angry at the DFV's comment for some reason,
Well too bad! You're stuck with me so you're not gonna mess with any other ling's mind so long as your in my head, got that!
The DFV goes silent at you outburst, but you ignore the silence when you stop pushing Spike and see...
O: Hi, my name is Octavia Melody.
You: Hi, I'm Baker Sylvester Tennant...but I guess you knew that, since you're at this party and...
O: (Giggles) It's OK, A true gentlemen introduces himself regardless, and I can see you are one
You: Thanks
O: Would you like some punch?
You: Sure
You walk with her to the punch bowl and she starts whispering to you
O: So, Vinyl tells me you're a member of the horde
You look around to make sure no one is listening
You: Ya, I'm from the Appleloosan branch...but should we really be talking about this here?
O: Oh don't be so skittish, more than half the ponies here are members.
Your eyes widen at that
O: Now, I want to ask you a question, do you actually believe in His message, or are you just a bandwagoner?
You: Oh...I guess you can say I believe in his message...I was there at Appleloosa when he stopped the Buffalo and Pony war.
O: Ah, then you are a true believer in his cause...someone who knows the depth of his heroics (eyes sparkling)
You: Ya, I know it all too well
O: I mean, he's an inspiration for ponies everywhere to always try and do the right thing, no matter what life throws at you. And just look at his triumphs through his trials and tribulations. He suffers so much injustice, and yet he does what is right because he's a true hero.
Your ego boosts tremendously at those kind words.
O: Even after that whole Discord mind thing, the Horde knows the truth, and we have a duty to make sure others do too. If nothing else, for His sake. Just so he knows there are those that appreciate and even love him. And...are you crying?
You: No (Sniff) just...got something in my eyes...but that was beautiful
O: Thank you, sorry if I rambled a bit. I just wish he knew what I...what everyone feels about him.
You: I'm sure He knows and appreciates it (smiling)
"Hello, my name is Octavia Melody."
You turn to the refined voice and say,
"Hi, I'm Baker Sylvester Tennant... but I guess you knew that, since you're at this party and..."
She interrupts you with a giggle and says,
"It's OK, A true gentlemen introduces himself regardless, and I can see you clearly are one."
"Thanks- I mean I express my sincere gratitude." you say, temporarily drawing on your "fancy voice" and what little you can remember from the "How to be A Gentle Colt 101" book.
Octavia giggles again and asks,
"Would you like some punch?"
"Sure."
You walk with her to the punch bowl and she starts whispering to you,
"So, Vinyl tells me you're a member of the horde"
You look around to make sure no one is listening and reply,
"Ya, I'm from the Appleloosan branch..." you pause before getting into your 'fancy voice' again, "but is it wisely advisable to be corresponding about this subject matter in present and most dubious company?"
"Oh don't be so skittish, more than half the ponies here are members."
Your eyes widen at that as she continues,
"Now, I want to ask you a question, do you actually believe in his message, or are you just another bandwagoner?"
"Oh... I guess you can say I believe in his message..."
Even if even I have no idea what kind of "message" I'm trying to spread. you mentally comment as you continue.
"I was there at Appleloosa when he stopped the Buffalo and Pony war."
"Ah, then you are a true believer in his cause... somepony who knows the depth of his heroics!"
Her eyes start to sparkle as her whispering gets louder,
"Yeah, I know it all too well..."
"I mean, he's an inspiration for ponies everywhere to always try and do the right thing, no matter what life throws at you. And just look at his triumphs through his trials and tribulations. He suffers so much injustice, and yet he does what is right because he's a true hero."
Your ego boosts tremendously at those kind words. Vinyl- Er, I mean DJ Pon-3 notices Octavia starting to speak more loudly about the Hooded Offender so she turns up the volume to make sure nopony else can hear her.
"Even after that whole Discord mind-thing, the Horde knows the truth, and we have a duty to make sure others do too. If nothing else, for His sake. Just so he knows there are those that appreciate and even love him. And... are you crying?"
You sniffle as you wipe off a stray tear with your scarf and say,
"No *Sniff* just... got something in my eyes... but that was beautiful."
"Thank you, I apologize if I rambled a bit. I just wish he knew what I... what everypony feels about him."
"I'm sure he knows and appreciates it." you smile.
With a farewell you both part ways when...
Meet a pair of twin Earth Ponies that you recognize from that time you went to the bath (Season 1, Episode 13, "The Ponies in This Town Are CRAZY!"). The one with the blue coat and pink mane is Lotus Blossom and she speaks with a Eastern European accent while the one with a pink coat and blue mane is Aloe and they run the Ponyville spa. Lotus takes her job more seriously while Aloe is a more out-going, easy-going, flirt (reminds you alot of that "Yin/Yang" balance thing that keeps popping up in those Neighponese movies and anime and it kinda reminds you of the dynamic between between Vinyl and Octavia).
You run into a pair of twin earth pony mares. The one with the blue coat and pink mane and tail says in an accent,
"Oh hello there Mister Tennant, my name is Lotus Blossom and this is my sister,"
The mare with the pink coat and blue mane and tail continues,
"Aloe, my name is Aloe."
"We run the Day Spa in town." They both say at the same time.
"Oh, that cool, I went to a spa once, wasn't relazing. Let's just say too many hot rocks and not enough quick dry cement."
"Don't you mean mud?" Lotus asks as they both look at you in confusion.
"That's it, they didn't have mud, they had quick dry cement. I swore I was stuck in that blasted tub for days..."
As the twin mares look at you in confusion, you can't help be get a sense of deja vu like you've seen these ponies before-
I remember now! These were the twins that helped clean me up back when Cadance sent me to Ponyville. From what I remember, Lotus takes her job seriously and doesn't slack off on the job while Aloe is the opposite; out-going, easy-going... And a flirt...
"I'm not surprised. With those looks, I'd mistake you for an ancient statue of a chiseled alicorn too." she flirts with a wink, snapping you out of your thoughts while proving your point.
You blush deep red at her flirting as Lotus gives her an annoyed look. You stumble with your words for a few seconds before saying,
"Heheheh thank you, it's a medical condition. Same as how I have to wear all these awesome clothes."
Lotus looks your outfit up and down before saying something amazing,
"Hmmmm, the hat of the 7th, 10th's trenchcoat, 4th's scarf, 6th's pants, and a face mask from the looks of it. Nice, very... Doctorish."
You stare at her in shock before thinking,
Holy buck... I AIN'T THE ONLY WHOOVIAN WHO LIKES THE CLASSICS THAT I KNOW OF ANYMORE!
"Well, we need to go." Lotus says, snapping you out of your thoughts.
"Awww, why?" Aloe whines,
"We scheduled a appointment with a high paying customer tonight, remember?"
"Ohhhhh right, well later cutie." Aloe flirts with another wink causing you to blush as you reply,
"Ah, uh, yeah... uh, see ya later."
The twins turn to leave, but Aloe remembers something and turns back,
"Oh, here's a ticket for one free father-daughter spa day. Welcome to Ponyville!"
"Thank you, Nightshade will love this... hopefully."
"Spa Ticket" added to The Inventory
With that you leave, but bump into another pony...
Meet the pegasus who saved you from crazed Twilight and find out her name is Sunshower Raindrops. Thank her for whacking a crazed Twilight in the head with a flower pot (this comment causes Twilight to blush and facehoof). She sheepishly comments that she also had an overdue book that day and hit Twilight with the flower pot so she could sneak it in (while the overdue fine is not so bad, it's the scolding by Twilight that everypony doesn't like)
"Sorry bout that- Hey! You're the pegasus who saved me from the crazed bookworm by smashing her in the head with a flower pot." you say causing a nearby Twilight to facehoof at the memory of her behavior that day.
"Oh..." the pegasus with a Tiffany blue mane and tail and jasmine coat says in recognition before you butt in,
"Thanks! I never caught your name by the way."
"My name's Sunshower Raindrops. I was happy to help, but I had other... less noble reasons for that save..."
"Really?"
Sunshower looks both ways cautiously before she leans in and whispers,
"I had an overdue book due that day and i needed a way to sneak it into the library without getting caught by her."
"Wow. What does she normally do to overdue book keepers? Throw them in the dungeon?" you ask in surprise.
"Well, the actual fine is no big deal, but it's her scolding lectures that everypony in town knows to avoid."
"O... Kay..." you say hesitantly. "Well I have to get back to the party. Nice meeting you, and thanks again for the save."
"Anytime." she says with a smile before trotting off. You follow suit and walk off in a different direction...
Also Rarity talks about how Sweeite and the others speak highly of Night Shade and AJ and Rainbow both nod as well.
Rarity: So mister Tennant, if it's not too much to ask, what does her mother do?
AJ: I've actually been wondering that myself (eyes look around shiftily)
You: Well...
DFV: I seek to end the false godesses reign, and to take vengeance on the weak one who betrayed...
You: Her mother...lives on in my mind
They all gasp in sympathy, thinking that means she is dead, and Applejack and Rainbow both give a slight victory smile at that.
Rarity: Oh, I'm sorry...I shouldn't have asked
You: No no, it's fine, sometimes though it's like she's always there.
DFV: I will always be here, and don't you forget it!
And run into 4 of the the Deadly 6 (Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash) and Spike.
"Oh Hi Mister Tennant darling," Rarity says "While I can't exactly approve of your taste in wardrobe, I can say that Sweetie and her friends get along fabulously with your daughter."
Applejack and Rainbow both nod as well as Rarity continues,
"So Mister Tennant, if it's not too much to ask, what does her mother do?"
"Ah've actually been wondering that myself..." Applejack comments as her eyes look around shiftily.
"Well..."
I seek to end the false goddess's reign, and to take vengeance on the weak one who betrayed-
Ignoring DFV's rant, you half-truth,
"Her mother... lives on in my mind."
They all gasp in sympathy (thinking that Nightshade's mother is dead) and Applejack and Rainbow gives a slight victory smile at that before joining in on the sympathy.
"That poor stallion." and "Poor little filly" you overhear several nearby ponies say,
Do these ponies have any sense of privacy at all! you think in annoyance.
"Oh, I'm sorry... I shouldn't have asked." Rarity says,
"No no, it's fine, sometimes though it's like she's always there."
I will always be here being your only friend, and don't you forget it!
Don't remind me...
Nightshade meets Fluttershy and they immediately hit it off talking about animals and nature. Fluttershy comments that the "Animals, Nature, and You" book is a few years out of date and when the Pegasus talks about how more up-to-date book are at the library, Nightshade says,
"Now I'm glad daddy stopped us from burning down the library!"
This causes a "WHAT?!" reaction from a few nearby ponies (especially Twilight and Spike). and results in an argument over the CMC (which involves you, Rarity, Applejack, and maybe a few others) which comes to a head when one of them says she ought to spank Nightshade if you won't which provokes you to yell,
"If anyling lays a hoof on my Nightshade I will tear off his legs, jam them into his eye sockets, slash his throat open, and then give the motherbucker A GRIFFIN NECKTIE!!!"
This outburst causes the ponies to back away in horror from you until Pinkie and Nightshade somehow manages to get the party mood back.
Out of the corner of your eye, you spot Fluttershy with Nightshade and they appear to be getting along very well.
"Daddy!" Nightshade says as she spots you and runs right over to your fatherly happiness.
"Oh Hi Mister Tennant. Your daughter is such a dear." Fluttershy says as she joins the group,
"Yeah, we talked about nature and animals, then we talked about something called 'knitting' when I mentioned you were trying to teach me to sew, and about something called a 'spa' and about how I can learn more about animals from the library! Now I'm glad you stopped us from burning down the library!"
"WHAT?!" many nearby (especially Twilight and Spike) say. What follows is an argument between you, Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash over the CMC which comes to a head when Twilight says,
"Mister Tennant, I read a book about foal care a while ago. It said that a misbehaving child must be punished by a spanking. So if you won't do that then so help me I will!"
*snap*
On instinct, you protectively shove Nightshade behind you as you roar,
"If you lay one bucking hoof on my Nightshade, I will tear out your legs, jam them into your eyeballs, break off your horn, slash your throat open with it, and GIVE YOU A GRIFFIN NECKTIE!!!"
Suddenly, the party becomes so quite even a thought could be heard as everypony looks at you in stunned horror at your violent outburst as your glowing orange eyes continues to glare into a terrified Twilight. Nightshade then whispers to you,
"Daddy, you're being scary again..."
Pinkie Pie then brings you to the front of an area cleared for the dance floor where Vinyl is set up. You wave at her and she waves back, but Pinkie Pie holds a microphone in front of your face
Pinkie: ahem
You: uhhh
Pinkie: ahem...
You: (thinking) does she want me to sing or something?
P: Isn't somepony forgetting about a certain public apology he owes somepony else?
You: Oh! Right...(Grab Microphone)
You: Testing, Testing, 1,2,3...Hello everypony and thanks for throwing me and Night Shade this party, it really means a lot.
They applaud
You: But listen, I know I've probably built up a reputation in these last few days, but concerning yesterday I would really like to apologize to someone and set the record straight.
Audience is intrigued
You: Yesterday I jumped to conclusions when Applebloom had the Cutie Pox and I accused Pinkie Pie of...(you see kids in the audience) doing horrible things and had her wrongfully confess to it
You see Twilight and the rest (sans Pinkie) with frowns on their faces. Apparently they've known how upset Pinkie was.
You: Because the flower bloomed for my...(sigh) lies and not for her, some of you have been thinking that it was the truth.
You see the Flower Trio (the ones who wore the hazmat suits, and see them looking at Pinkie with worried/scared faces
You: I can assure you all that this is not the case and that because I interrogated her harshly, she believed it enough to the point where the flower was tricked. You don't have to fear her
You see some of the ones who were fearful sigh, but then look guilty
You: (Turn toward Pinkie) Pinkie, I'm sorry. I was acting like an idiot. Can you forgive me?
She hugs you, Hard, and says
P: Of course I can, you came to the Apology Party after all, why wouldn't I forgive you. That's what friends do.
Everyone Dawws at that, and you even hear others saying sorry to Pinkie for thinking she was a killer.
P: (whispers in your ear) though if you really want to make it up to me there's plenty of fun things you and I can do together...
Your eyes widen and a little bit of blood comes out your nose
You: uuuhhh...
She pulls away from you and holds her own microphone
P: Like Singing Karoake!!!
You: (Thinking) IS SHE DOING THIS ON PURPOSE?!
You: Umm...OK
Sing "Come on Feel the Noize" with Pinkie.
While saying your apology, you decide to troll Pinkie,
"I assure you all that Pinkie is not a psycho cannibal serial killer... (*smirks mischievously beneath mask and scarf*) Or at the very least I can't prove it yet."
This gets you a few angry scowls before you say, "Joking or am I..."
Before you can respond, you suddenly find yourself whisked in front of an area cleared for the dance floor where Vinyl is set up. You're standing next to Pinkie who announces,
"WOAH! That was intense, but let's not let it turn our frowns upside down! Let's keep this party going! But first..."
Pinkie Pie holds a microphone in front of your face and mutters,
"Ahem."
"Uhhh"
"Ahem..." Pinkie says again with more emphasis.
Does she want me to sing or something? you think in confusion.
"Isn't somepony forgetting about a certain public apology he owes somepony else?" Pinkie hints with emphasis,
"Oh! Right..." you say in realization before recieivng the microphone from her,
"Testing, Testing, 1,2,3..."
You tap on the microphone causing feedback which causes everypony to wince before you continue,
"Hello everypony and thanks for throwing me and Nightshade this party, it really means a lot."
They lightly applaud.
"But listen, I know I've probably built up a reputation in these last few days as... 'an eccentric', but concerning yesterday I would really like to apologize to somepony and set the record straight."
Intrigued, the audience listens in more closely as you continue,
"Yesterday I jumped to conclusions when Applebloom had the Cutie Pox and I accused Pinkie Pie of..."
You pause when you see foals in the audience and revise your statement,
"-doing horrible things and made her wrongfully confess to it."
You see Twilight and the rest (sans Pinkie) with frowns on their faces. Apparently they've known how upset Pinkie was,
"Because the flower bloomed for my... (*sigh*) lies and not for hers, some of you have been thinking that it was the truth."
You see the Flower Trio looking at Pinkie with worried/scared faces,
"I can assure you all that this is not the case and that because I interrogated her so harshly, she believed it enough to the point where the flower was tricked. You don't have to fear her. I assure you all that Pinkie is not some sort of psycho cannibal serial killer..."
Your prankster side suddenly getting the best of you, you smirk mischievously beneath the mask and scarf before adding,
"Or at the very least I can't prove it yet."
The flower ponies yelp and faint and you get several "Dude, Not Funny" scowls from the audience (even from Fluttershy, Vinyl, and Nightshade),
"Kidding!" you quickly add "or am I..." you mutter afterwards.
"And let me say, I have learned a valuable lesson. I learned it the day my beautiful daughter came to be. It's that you can never judge a pony by their looks or their odd behavior. It's what they are on the inside that counts. And even though I don't know her very well, and we got off on the wrong hoof big time, I am glad to call her a non-psychopath."
Unless it involves cake and beating me up.
You see some of the ones who were fearful sigh in relief, but then look guilty. You turn towards Pinkie and say,
"Pinkie, I'm sorry. I was acting like an idiot. Can you forgive me?"
She hugs you (Hard. You swore you heard a few ribs crack) and says,
"Of course I can, you came to the Apology Party after all, why wouldn't I forgive you. That's what friends do."
Everyone Dawws at that, and you even hear others apologizing to Pinkie for thinking she was a killer. Pinkie then whispers in your ear while continuing the hug,
"Though if you really want to make it up to me there's plenty of fun things you and I can do together..."
Your eyes widen in shock and a little bit of blood comes out your nose,
"Uuuhhh..."
She pulls away from you and grabs her own microphone,
"Like Singing Karaoke!!!"
IS SHE DOING THIS ON PURPOSE?!
"Umm... O.K."
ONE PARTY LATER
When the party is over, go back to the shed with a sleepy/sleeping Nightshade (other CMC went home with their sisters/sister figure)
You sang We Will Rock You and Come On Feel the Noise to applause, but get booed off the stage for horribly trying to sing Let It Go (Note to Self: Rock is the only genre you can sing well). There was some awkwardness when Twilight comments that you're glowing orange eyes and violently protective nature seem very familiar, but you defuse the situation by shoving your Doctor's Note into her face.
You're now returning to your shed home with a sleeping Nightshade on your back. The party was still going on, but you wanted to put your daughter to bed. But as soon as you reached the shed and put her back into The Inventory, you felt really tired and flopped onto the cot asleep. Apparently you were more tuckered out than you thought you were...
THE NEXT DAY
"Ugh... What the... Where am I?"
You look around the area you're in to see that you're in a dark room and you can't see a thing. You try to move, but you find out that you've been tied down!
"OI! What the heck is going on! Who ever the buck is doing this better come out or I swear I'll..."
Suddenly, a cloaked figure appears in front of you. You can barely see an evil smile under the hood. The hooded figure then says,
"Welcome to your new home... Master."

HOLY MOTHER OF LUNA THE FANFILLIES FOUND ME! I'M GONNA DIE!
