Pony Pillows
Pinkie lays her head down on the side of a sleeping Applejack.
"Nice and soft, with a firm undertone."
She readjusts on her new pillow.
"Where to put my hooves? Hmm."
Pinkie pulls one of Applejack's legs to her chest, holding it.
"Yes, something soft to hold on to. I'm starting to like this pillow."
She nuzzles her pillow to try to get a comfier lay on it.
Her pillow wakes up.
"Huh, wha…" Applejack says in a daze.
"Shh, pillow, I'm trying to sleep."
"Pillow?" Applejack lifts her head, seeing Pinkie's current resting place. "What are you doing on me, Pinkie?"
"Trying to get some sleep, isn't it obvious?"
"No, it's not. Why are you using me for a pillow?"
"I needed a new pillow, duh."
"Could you, maybe, not use your friend as a pillow?"
"This pillow talks too much, will have to reevaluate."
"What'd ya mean, talks too much? I'm not a pillow!"
"Pillow is also grumpy."
"I'm not the one bargin' in to muh friend's house and using 'em for a pillow."
"Pillow is prone to aggressive outburst, requesting a new pillow."
"Get out!"
"Pillow is very angry, initial retreat protocol!"
"Bye!"
Pinkie lays her head on her new pillow, Rarity.
"This pillow is really soft… and very pretty."
Rarity spoke up, "While I do appreciate the compliment, I must ask, why are you in my bed, using me as a pillow?"
"Just trying to find a new pillow. The last one got really angry for some reason."
"Might I ask why you are using ponies as your pillow?"
"They seemed like a good pick, as they're really soft, cuddly, and cute."
"Perhaps you would be inclined to use my pillow, so we can talk about us?"
"What do you mean us?"
"Well… I thought you might be interested in me, seeing as you're currently using me as a pillow and have called me both pretty and cute."
"Maybe later, I'm trying to test sleeping on this new pillow."
"I was trying to get some sleep too, you know."
"We're in agreement, let's both get some sleep."
A few minutes later, Rarity asks, "Would it be okay if I held you?"
"Sure! I'll get a better idea of how soft you are."
Rarity holds Pinkie for a few minutes before Pinkie says, "Okie! On to the next one!"
Pinkie slips free of her grasp, heading for the door.
Rarity cries, "Noooo."
Pinkie now lays her head down on a cyan pillow named Rainbow Dash.
"Hmmm… soft, but a little firm at the same time."
She prods at her pillow a little.
"Some parts are firmer than others."
The pillow under her stirs slightly.
"This one moves as well!"
As she continues to prod the pillow, her hooves brush against something with unusual texture.
"Wings! That must be a new feature."
Carefully, she unfurls the wing and wraps it gently around herself, smiling from the sudden warmth.
"This is very comfy! I'll need to remember this in my final ranking!"
Rainbow stirs from the sudden close contact. "Huh? Wha-?" She opens her eyes slowly. "Pinkie?!"
Pinkie pets her head. "Shhh, pillows don't talk."
"Who says I'm a pillow?"
"I do! I'm deciding which of you makes the best pillow."
Rainbow blinks. "Well… how did I do?"
Pinkie smiles. "I can't say yet." She rolls out of bed and falls straight through the cloud floor.
Rainbow screams. "Pinkie!" She dives through the floor and, to her shock and relief, sees Pinkie climb off a massive trampoline.
"On to the next pillow!"
Rainbow scratches her head, confused, before flying back to resume her sleep.
Pinkie lays her head down on a yellow pillow this time, Fluttershy.
"Wow, this one is really soft."
Pinkie nuzzles her pillow's feathers.
"The feathers add so much to the experience. I wonder how squeezable this pillow is. Sometimes you gotta hold on tight."
Pinkie wraps her hooves around Fluttershy and gently squeezes her as she nuzzles her more.
Fluttershy wakes up, lifting her head to see what's going on. "Pinkie…" she says in a confused tone.
"This pillow talks too, aye."
"Pillow?"
"Ugh, I'm trying to find a new pillow because the last three didn't work out."
"I'm your pillow?"
"Yes."
"O- okay."
"Does this pillow have any unique features?"
"Oh, like what?"
Pinkie thinks for a moment before she asks, "Can it sing me a lullaby?"
Fluttershy begins softly singing a lullaby to Pinkie, who cuddles up with her newest pillow.
I like this pillow, so far, it's my favorite.
Fluttershy wraps her hooves around Pinkie, holding her back.
Aww, such a good pillow.
A few minutes later, as Pinkie is about to fall asleep, Fluttershy says, "Pinkie?"
"Yes, pillow?"
"I need to use the restroom."
Pinkie sighs. "Dang pillows and their problems."
Pinkie lays her head down on the bed where Twilight should be, but nopony is there.
"What? Where's Twilight?"
Twilight appears from behind the bed and lays down on the bed, using Pinkie's shoulder as a pillow. "I needed a new pillow."
"Hey, that's my line!"
"I think I need a new pillow too, Twilight," Rarity says as she lays down in Twilight's bed, resting her head on Pinkie's front hooves.
Pinkie asks, confused, "What's going on here?"
Nopony answers, instead Rainbow flies down and lays down, using Pinkie's flank as a pillow. "Ah, I was looking for a softer pillow too."
Pinkie asks, "Where are you all coming from?"
Fluttershy pokes out from under the bed, laying down and resting her head on Pinkie's side. "This pillow is really soft; thanks for the recommendation, Twilight."
Pinkie asks, "Are all of you here?"
Applejack opens the door, trotting to the bed before laying down, laying her head on Pinkie's rear legs. "Thanks for inviting me, Twilight, I've been needing a new pillow."
Pinkie says, "I still need to figure out who the softest pillow is."
Twilight says, "Say it with me, girls."
All five ponies say in unison, "Pinkie Pie."
