"Listen up, candy apple," You put your hands on your hips in an effort too show that you. Mean. Business. "I don't have time for your little huffy attitude, so why don't you go right on ahead and change back to your normal self."
Applejack seems unperturbed. She casually chews on the lime she's holding, before taking a big bite, then spitting it at you, bouncing it skillfully off your forehead. "And why in tarnation should I listen to you?"
"Well, because..." You hold up your finger as though you're about to make a point, but words fail to leave your mouth. "Because..." Scratch that. You manage to get one word out. "Gee, that's a good question... Um... Because I'm threatening?"
She closes her eyes, continuing to snack on her popcorn. "I don't think so."
"I'm scary?"
"Try again."
"I have great teeth?"
"In your dreams."
"I can touch my nose to my tongue?"
"Now you're just desperate."
"Gah!" You stomp the ground in frustration. "I thought you're supposed to lie, not be brutally honest! Look, if you don't do what I say, I'll turn you into glue, you understand?!"
Applejack eyes you, looking you up and down. "You think you can take me?"
You scoff at her lack of confidence. "Of course I can!"
"Oh, sure," she smirks, "I believe you. Let's go right now."
"Okay," you reply, "But don't cry when I whoop your ass! And I don't mean a donkey, I mean ass as in rump. Rear end. Behi-" A pair of hooves smash into your lower jaw, causing your teeth to practically shatter as your mouth is forced shut.
"Please, continue," Applejack says. "I want to hear every valuable word that leaves your mouth." You can't tell, but you think your teeth fused together from the impact. "What's wrong?" the pony grins. "I'm sure you'd like to go for round two, right?"
At those words, you flee, leaving a trail of dust in your wake. You most certainly won't be lying when you say that you aren't crossing that crazy pony's path again anytime in the near future.
