On the Good Ship Lollipop! [ACTION]

[laughafterme]

[Home Ec class this week is planting stuff in a garden in Garden. Thus, Pinkie has this sign made up as one enters the area, hanging from somewhere:]


"LET'S PUT A GARDEN IN GARDEN SO WE CAN GARDEN AT THE GARDEN IN A GARDEN WHERE WE GARDEN!!"

[Meanwhile, she's sticking lollipops into the ground. Because she can.

Anyone is welcome to stop by and plant some lollipops, but not anything else unless you're in her class.]

Comments

[lunar_princess]

[Woah, okay. Luna usually doesn't peek into the garden, but that sign has her curious. And is that...

....

Why are there lolipops in the ground.]

Pinkie Pie? [Just forgive her staring at her from the doorway with a deer-in-headlights look.]

[laughafterme]

[Pinkie looks up and waves, a few lollipops in her hand.]

Hey Princess Luna! What's up?!

[lunar_princess]

[No, really, she has no idea why she's putting them in the ground.]

We do not think that those particular things work that way to grow...

[laughafterme]

Oh, I know! [Grins!] Is that what you're worried about?

[laughafterme]

Oh, I'm VERY sure they don't!

[morphitudinous]

[Billy is going to stand here and be baffled.]

Is there a particular reason you're making a lollipop arrangement in the soil?

[laughafterme]

[She looks to him, wiping her forehead free of some perspiration with the back of her hand.]

Uh, to make it cute?

[morphitudinous]

The garden needs to be cute? It's a good thing worms aren't very good at unwrapping lollipops, isn't it.

[laughafterme]

Why shouldn't it look cute?! It's not just any ol' garden! It's OUR garden!

You might be surprised! Worms can get crafty!

[marearcana]

[Immediately after class one day...]

...Why does the sign say that? There already is a garden in Garden, otherwise we'd be doing something else.

[She has no comment about the recursion, funny as it may be.]

[laughafterme]

Because I put it there? [Why else would it say that?!]

notifs, stop messing with me. sorry

[marearcana]

Pinkie, this isn't about the fact that the sign is there, it's about what's written on it.

no worries!

[laughafterme]

[Pinkie looks to the sign, then back to Twilight with a confused look.]

I made sure to spell and grammer check it and everything! What's wrong with it?!

[fierybluebird]

You know lollipops don't grow like plants, right? They grow like crystals.

[Points at the sign.] Just what kind of garden are you striving for matey?

[laughafterme]

YEP! I know! It's probably not the best time of year for crystals, though!

This garden is for the home ec class! Everyone has to grow veggies and fruits! [She holds up a finger.] BUT the lollipops are for people who aren't taking the class!

[fierybluebird]

Oh! I see. [Instantly amused.] Sort of like a promotion?

[laughafterme]

No! [Grins!!] It's just to give visitors something to do!

[elementofloyalty]

[Around a corner, a snickering Rainbow Dash watches Pinkie planting lollipops with a grin of pure wicked glee on her face.]

[As soon as Pinkie turns her back to get some more lollipops to plant, Rainbow Dash bursts out of cover, swooping past to scoop up the ones she'd just planted in her hooves, then taking off around another corner before Pinkie could turn back around and spot her.]

[laughafterme]

[Just as Pinkie goes to plant more, she notices that there is a super strong wind and suddenly MISSIN LOLLIPOPS! She scratches her head in confusion.]

The weather shouldn't be THAT windy!

[elementofloyalty]

[Rainbow giggles into a hoof as she watches from her hiding spot. Go on, Pinkie, plant some more!]

[laughafterme]

[Resolved to just plant more, Pinkie replaces what's been lost. Stupid wind!]

[hawkette]

[Just sort of.... takes it all in. She doesn't quite understand what's going on, but she recognizes who's doing it, and doesn't feel like picking a fight right now.] That's... colorful.

[laughafterme]

[Oh, it's her. Pinkie only manages a small smile. She really tries to make it sincere, but Pinkie never forgets mean people.]

Oh, thanks. [Annnnd she goes back to planting.]

[hawkette]

[I will not say "lollipops don't grow like that." I will not say "lollipops don't grow like that"...]

This the uh... Garden Garden's outline?

[laughafterme]

[She can say it, but Pinkie will just give her a funny look!]

Outline? [She looks to the garden, then stands and looks at it from that viewpoint.] What outline?
