VOTE FOR ME TO BE HOMECOMING QUEEN, AND I'LL MAKE SURE THE HEADMASTER GETS A SHINY NEW SWEATERVEST! :D



[ACTION]

[Pinkie, dressed in a blue t-shirt with balloons on it (similar to that familiar cutie mark), a pink tutu-like skirt, blue and yellow striped thigh high socks, and pink sneakers is walking around Garden handing out lollipops with tags attached. Each tags says:

PINKIE PIE FOR HOMECOMING QUEEN! WIN OR LOSE, WE PARTY!!

As she gives them out, she's smiling brighter than the sun! But during off hours, she looks around in search of something. In her case, it's actually someone. One can tell by her facial expression that she's genuinely worried.

Gummy is attached to her shoulder this time, sporting a little bow tie.]

[Billy has seen the campaign poster and smiled at it. He's really torn---there are so many strong candidates. He bumps into her just as he's considering this.]

If they're giving out awards for 'most prepared', I believe you win.

[laughafterme]

[At seeing Billy, she perks up with a smile for him.]

You think so? I was going to pass them out, regardless! Buuuuuuut this seemed like a good chance to spread the word!

[morphitudinous]

Yeah. You have some tough competition, but that's never stopped you.

[He gestures to her pile, offering to carry something on this round.]

I guess this has been taking up your downtime?

[laughafterme]

[At the gesture, she looks to her basket and hands it to him. What a gentleman!]

Kinda! I've been looking for a friend, but...I think she's gone... [Her smile fades as she pets Gummy idly.] I can't find her name in the system.

[morphitudinous]

[Billy scoops it up, offering the items whenever needed. This is no trouble at all.]

I'm sorry. Did you want my help?

[He hasn't had enough people close to him to have this problem yet, but it still saddens him.]

[laughafterme]

I'm pretty sure she's gone, but thanks! You CAN help me pass out these!! [OH HO! Got some extra help!]

[kitchenfistfirechaosstyle]

[And it's during one of those off-hours searches that she finds... not the person she's looking for!]

For someone normally sunny side up, you look like your yolk has split!

[laughafterme]

Huh...that's a good way of putting it! [She gives him a feeble smile.] I think one of my friends did split.

[kitchenfistfirechaosstyle]

[He loses his usual smile, in turn.]

I am sorry, Pinkie.

[laughafterme]

[She shakes her head gently before shrugging softly.]

You don't need to apologize. Maybe she'll be back one day...right? [Her smile is kind of a sad one, but Pinkie always had hope.]

[kitchenfistfirechaosstyle]

It is sympathy, Pinkie, not apology.

[And for a rare treat, Champloo is not going to address this problem with food metaphors and passionate speeches about the heart of cooking! Well... maybe in a bit. For now, he simply reaches out to draw Pinkie into a hug.]

[jollybolt]

[In his haste to eat the lollipop, Ginji shoves the attached tag in his mouth, too. It's only after a few moments of blissful slurping that he realizes his mistake. Opening his mouth wide, he plucks the soggy tag by its edge and reads the print scrawled across it.]

Whafs a 'homcahmink queen'?

[laughafterme]

[Oh, Ginji. That has no protein in it. Probably carbs, though.]

...a queen for Homecoming! [That's all Pinkie knows.]

[jollybolt]

[The good kind of carbs, right?
He removes the lollipop to clear his speech.]

Oh, okay! That makes sense!

....What's a Homecoming?

[laughafterme]

Oh, it's some school event thingie! [They didn't have this back in Equestria.]

[jollybolt]

Oh, okay. Huh. Well, I think I'll vote for you for it because I bet it's chilly in the headmaster's office. Could use that sweatervest.

[Everyone could use a good vest in his opinion]

Since you'll be Queen does that mean you get any cool powers? Or a horse-drawn carriage?

[youngnobelman]

[Touma reads the tag with amusement.]

You had my vote even without the promise of a party.

[laughafterme]

Really?! Thanks, Doctor Touma!


But you'll still come, right?!

[youngnobelman]

Really. [Confidential:] I nominated you.

I'll put in an appearance.

[laughafterme]

[PREPARE TO GET YOUR BONES CRUSHED WITH A HUG!]

Thank you THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

[youngnobelman]

[Ow.] You're... welcome...

[wrnpcs]

I can and do buy my own sweatervests, you know... :)

Best,
Headmaster Cid

[laughafterme]

But mine comes with state of the art LOVE!! :D

[wrnpcs]

But only if people vote for you?

[laughafterme]

No, the love comes standard!!
