Early in the afternoon, the guys finally get up, though it can be argued that they deserved the rest, after being transported into a strange World, battling a physical goddess, and having one hell of an after party.
Currently McGrath is looking at the coffee machine, waiting for it to fill his mug. After a little while, McGrath is leaning against the kitchen counter enjoying the black liquid. A knock is heard on the door, noticing that nobody else is gonna open it, he walks to the door. As he opens it, a big pink fuzzy ball invaded his personal space "Goood afternoon! How was your first sleep in Ponyville? Good? I hoop it was good, if it wasn't I would be so sad!"
"Good afternoon to you, Pinkie." McGrath interrupted her with his usual emotionless voice, but Pinkie in turn interrupted him again "You remember me! That makes me so happy! And I like being happy and making other people happy!" she said grinning ear to ear.
McGrath having to interrupt her again, he wouldn't get a word through otherwise "Believe me, Pinkie. I couldn't forget you even if I wanted to." taking a look over her, noticing two basket's filled with muffins besid them. "What are all these muffins doing here?" he questioned her.
"They are for you and the guys!" Pinkie said, before McGrath responded "Muffins? What are you giving me muffins for!?" he said with a slightly suspicious tone in his voice.
Pinkie was slightly taken aback by his reaction, as if she offended him somehow, before her expression turns back into her usual smile "A welcoming present from Mister and Misses Cake, silly!" she said and McGrath helped her took the baskets in the house.
Placing them on the kitchen counter, McGrath listened to her explaining what muffin is what.
"Come on, try one! Their still warm!" she encouraged him, taking what seems to be a chocolate muffin, he took a small bite. He chewed on it, before wolfing down the rest.
"I take it you liked it?" Pinkie said with a big smile. McGrath cleaned the sides of his mouth "They were good. I'll have to give Mr. and Miss Cake my thanks later." finishing his mug of coffee and places it in the sink.
"Say McGrath, why did you react so surprised about the welcoming present?" Pinkie said tilting her head. McGrath looked over her "I... I never received a gift before." he got out with much hesitation. Before Pinkie could ask for more, the other guys save Skywalker entered the room.
Griffifth sniffed before asking "What's smelling good?" they notice Pinkie standing there.
Sutakira was the first to say "Good afternoon, Pinkie." Pinkie gave them a big smile "Goood afternoon! How was your first sleep in Ponyville? Good? I hoop it was good, if it wasn't I would be so sad!" she asked them in quick succession.
Phoenix cringed as he massaged the side his head "Please, not so loud. I'm having a huge hangover!" taking a muffin.
After answering questions all morning, Skywalker said goodbye to Twilight and Spike, he decided to explore the town a bit.
The ponies of Ponyville took it very well that weird ape like creatures now living with them. Strolling along a pad in the woods, enjoying the quite but failed to realized that a certain yellow Pegasus was leading a line of rabbits to another area with her back turned.
Skywalker is suddenly thrown to the ground.
Fluttershy turning around and noticing who she knocked over "Oh, my goodness!" trying to help him up Skywalker, "I'm really sorry for bumping into you like that! I didn't know you were behind me! I was just..."
"Fluttershy, Fluttershy!" Skywalker interrupted her, dusting his jacked off "It's okay. I know it was just an accident." standing back up and scratching his head.
Fluttershy smiled, but she was blushing more than usual. Skywalker his head is tilted slightly with a confused look "Are you okay, Fluttershy?"
Fluttershy looked away from him, her blush getting bigger, somehow "I-I-I'm fine." giving a nervous giggle.
"Alright." Skywalker said slowly, looking over at the animals behind her "You, uh, need help with the animals here?"
Fluttershy looking up at him with her big blue eyes, her face is almost completely red now "Oh, Yes!... If that's okay with you..." she added with a small voice.
Back at the guy's house, the sounds of drills and hammer's hitting wood is heard from the basement. Rarity entered, but none of the guys seems to be around. Noticing the sounds coming from the basement, she walked over it and gave it an elegant knock.
The working sounds stops as foot steps can be heard walking up the stairs. The door opens as McGrath peeks outside to see who dares to knocks. "Yes?" he said, eyeing her suspiciously. Rarity cleared her throat before speaking "Good afternoon, McGrath. I find myself in need of your assistance."
McGrath kept looking at her, "With what?" he asked her directly. Rarity blinked her eyes, not used that a stallion would speak to her that way, keeping her composure she answered, "Why I have need of an assistant today. I need to get some materials for my dresses and you seems like the excellent candidate to lend me a hoof." she said with a seduction voice, and batting her eyelashes at him. That usually does the trick.
"Why would I help you?" McGrath responded, his face showed no expression but his voice was dripped with irritation.
Rarity was now even more surprised, no stallion had ever reacted to her this way before, not after she gave them the eyelashes "You mean your seriously turning down a request from me!?" she responded with utter surprise.
McGrath stared at her sapphire blue eyes with his own emerald green, "I'm sorry? Perhaps I wasn't being clear?" his voice now dripping with sarcasm.
"But... but I'm the most beautiful girl in the whole town!" she sputtered, before she could say anything else McGrath said "And that still doesn't change that I'm busy and am unable to help you." closing the door as the sound of hammers restarted.
