Moonlit Talks
Pinkie wakes up in a cold sweat, surrounded by darkness. Where am I? She asks herself. As the moonlight filters through and her eyes adjust she realizes she is in the tent with the others. All of a sudden, tears form in her eyes and her hair turns flat. She gently makes her way over to the tent flap, so as not to wake the others, and walks out into the woods.
After walking for five minutes, she sits next to a tree and begins to cry in earnest, her whole body wracking with uncontrollable sobs.
Pinkie, what's wrong.
Pinkie looks around for the source of the voice before realizing it's just Pinkamena. I thought you could here my thoughts.
Only when we are meshed like this. Other times I can only sense your emotions. So, uh, what was that dream about?
Just my friends back in Equestria. I really miss them. I know i've made some super duper friends here but it's just not the same.
If it makes you feel better, I miss them, too. Remember that time we made cupcakes with Rainbow Dash?
Pinkie coughs out a laugh through her sobs. Yeah, and, boy, was that a mess. I never realized a pony could be so bad a baking.
She did have that one good idea, though, add a full bag of sugar instead of our usual half a bag.
Pinkie laughed again, this time wholeheartedly. Yeah that was great.
What about that time you cloned yourself. Sweet Celestia, that was crazy.
Pinkamena, language.
I only know the vocabulary you do, The alter ego feigned innocence.
Bah.
Pinkie and Pinkamena sit there for the next ten minutes, the latter consoling the former, until they hear a noise from behind. Pinkie turns around, her hair curled up again. “Who's there?”
“It's just me, Pinkie.” Joey appears out of the darkness.
Pinkie looks down. “How long have you been there?”
“The last five minutes.”
“Why didn't you say anything?”
“I don't know. I... uh.”
“It's OK, Joey.” She scoots to the side to leave some room against the tree where she was sitting. She pats the ground next to it. “Come sit.”
Joey sits down next to her and she immediately rests her head on his shoulder. He looks down at her and gently starts putting his arm around her shoulder, moving hesitantly in case she tells him to back off. After receiving no objection, he puts his arm completely around her. “Feeling better?” He asks.
“Loads.”
“Do you wanna tell me what was wrong?”
Pinkie snuggles closes to Joey. “Just a dream about home.”
“Oh,” Joey pauses trying to think of what to say. Finally he settles with the words, “I'm sorry.”
“It's not your fault.”
“I know. It's just, I wish I could help you.”
She looks up into his eyes. “But you have helped me, Joey. You've made me feel like I belong.”
Joey blushes at the closeness of her and turns his face away. He squeezes Pinkie tighter.
The two sit there like that for the next hour, Pinkie dozing off on Joey's shoulder. Suddenly, Joey had an itch. As he went to scratch it, the moment was broken as Pinkie woke up. She looks up at him, smacking her lips from waking up. She stands up. “Thank you, Joey.” She bends down and gives him another kiss, this time on the lips. She stands up, her cheeks red, and she walks away. Joey just sits there, dumbstruck, watching her leave, and not disliking the view at all.
Sorry this took so long, y'all. My cat who I've grown up with has been diagnosed with cancer. I know, not that big compared to other people, but still, this cat has been in my life 17 out of my twenty years. I'll keep writing. It makes me happy, keeps my spirits up, especially knowing that i have readers. Love y'all. Distorted
So sad to hear about your cat, I guess as much as you probably don't want to admit it that means you'll have to put it out of it's misery soon.
Perhaps changing the topic will help take your mind off things, here's a good one "What did you think of today's episode?" I thought it was pretty good but could have been a little better.
1635471 thanks and yeah it was good. They could have done so much more with the concept though
1635677 Yeah and it did get a little annoying to have Spike be the one to find the book that allowed Twilight to save the day, I just hope Hasbro's not trying to make Spike take Twilight's place as the protagonist who's always right.
1637379 i doubt it i think they are just trying to incorporate him more into the plot. no not that plot
1637784 I know, I just don't want that to mean Spike gets to be right more often, hopefully next episode "One Bad Apple" (The Bully Episode) will make the CMC the ones who have to come up with the solution to the problem, and if not there's always "Magic Duel" and "Sleepless in Ponyvillie" (Yay Scootasode! )
1637996 im personally waiting for the apple family reunion. AJ is best pony
1638010 Well let's hope it doesn't fall into the pit trap that "Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000" fell into, you know focusing on the Apple family so much that you forget it's about Applejack. Or like in "Applebuck Season" or "The Last Roundup" where some other character gets a big speaking role and completly over shadows Applejack (Not that I didn't like Big Macintosh speaking normally or Derpy getting a speaking role).
1638020 this is true. and aj needs a full song to herself
1638161 Let's hope "Apple Family Reunion" delivers, then of course we just need a Fluttershy episode and a Rarity episode we'll be all set.
1638198 yeppers so howd you like the chapter
1638539 Was good, short but sweet and tugged nice and hard at the heartstrings.
1639469 thats what i was aiming for
1639469 and also all my chapters are short
1639979 Oh right my mistake.
1640012 its cool dude
