When the Pie family visits Maud for the holidays, their holiday plans are interrupted by a panicking Starlight Glimmer who finds her friends meant to put on the yearly Heart's Carol performance for the School of Friendship.

With only Pinkie spared, Starlight needs five new actors. Pinkie happens to have five family members visiting. It's perfect!...hopefully.

Starlight scanned the group and counted under her breath. “Five...six...there’s six of you…” Her mouth slowly split in a large grin, her eyes going wide. “Pinkie, are you pondering what I’m pondering?”

“I think so, Starlight, but how would a rock that big even fit into the oven?”

“...I’m going to pretend you didn’t say that and move on.”

Okay, that got me laughing.

That was fun Drakey. Also, I'm pretty sure Starlight's going to be putting some whiskey in her coco. Just a hunch, mind.

Ha ha ha, lol, this is a great little story to read on Christmas morning. I like how the Pie family upstaged the Mane 6 from the canon episode, and how the audience liked them better than the regulars. I predict that Rarity will have a bird over this. Poor Starlight, but it all worked out wonderfully well in the end. Cute little story, thanks for writing it. :pinkiehappy:

I had an opportunity to make that joke, what choice did I have but to take it? :raritywink:

"One is a genius, the other's insane."

Of course, which definition goes to which pony is ambiguous (like in the source material).

“No, Mudbriar won’t be coming. He doesn’t recognize Hearth’s Warming Eve. He considers it a celebration of systemic stick abuse.”

He does realize that you don't have to have a tree right? Heck, you can use a fake one, if you really want to.

Limestone turned her head. “And what if the storm doesn’t calm, Commander?”

“THEN…THEN…” Marble coughed into her hoof. “Um…I don’t know…”

Limestone slapped a hoof to her forehead. “Not a great plan.”

“You voted for him!” a heckler shouted.

Silly Heckler. :trollestia: That's not how military positions work! :pinkiecrazy:

Nice story by the way.

That was a good story.

This was great. A simple premise, but some fantastic jokes :pinkiehappy:

A fantastic story! I'm a little disappointed we never learn the identity of the heckler though. :rainbowhuh:

I am tragically late in realizing that I never dropped a comment and a public thank you on this story. But the sentiment remains there even if my words are better late than never: this story was a delight. It was an amazing gift I was (and still am!) very thankful for.

This was delightful, especially Cloudy’s hidden depths. Her daughters got their extreme attitudes from someone, after all. I’m glad I finally read this. A much delayed merry Jinglemas.
