Eleven Cupcakes: Party Planning

[sailorlaughter]

Hey guys!

So, I just wanted to tell you all about this REALLY GREAT idea I had! It's called the Special Somepony Summit! You all know about Hearts and Hooves Day, right? It's pretty much like Valentine's Day, except here and for ponies! And now for YOU!

Anyway, the Special Somepony Summit is gonna be like the Sisterhooves Social, only for couples! You show up and you're on a team, and you play games with other teams to win a trophy! And don't worry, you can just show up with a friend if you're single! I would TOTALLY do it with one of my friends, but I'm gonna be judging since I set it all up!

Ooooh, ooooh, also! We're gonna try to debut some new love-flavored treats for the holidays! Me and my intern Stacy -

[A changeling leans in from offscreen.] Actually...I kinda changed my mind about the name. I wanna be Black Thunder now!

Oh! Well, me and Black Thunder have been experimenting, and we're TOTALLY close to getting the right taste down! I mean, I guess it's not really a taste taste...but it's close, right?

Oh, totally! Hey...do you think Black Thunder's really me?

[You're talking to someone who's never heard of the MPAA rating system, Yukiko.]

Rated R? [At least he's looking just concerned now.] Rated... rotten? [What else would 'R' stand for?] None of it's meant to be bad.

[gigglesnortpriestess]

[Oh boy.]

Umm...have you heard of the Birds and the Bees?

[HOW SIMPLER CAN SHE GET WITHOUT SAYING THE WORD?????]

[tinkertytonk]

[There is a long pause. Then the stallion stares at her, mouth agape.]

What? What has that- Why in Equestria would that matter?

[Slapping a private filter on this because kids can be watching this. Plus he's an adult. Hopefully.]

Because that and orgies are very close together.

[Private]

[tinkertytonk]

They aren't anything to do with one another!

[Bertie's ears are flat and his face is earnest.]

Orgies are... they're just meant to be a fun romp.

[Private]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

...this is one of those times where words mean a different thing isn't it?

[Because honestly...you sound weird.]

At least where I'm from, an orgy is where a bunch of people do...well...that. Things not meant for kids.

[Private]

[tinkertytonk]

[His features turn to absolute horror. No wonder Harvey hadn't wanted to tell him!]

No! Oh, Celestia, no! No, never! Never! Who would do that? I'm so sorry, I never meant- never!

[He covers his face, cheeks and ears burning in shame and embarrassment.]

[Private]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

I guess this is one of those moments where words mean different things in different worlds.

At least you know for next time?

[Private]

[tinkertytonk]

[He can only whimper for the moment as he regrets all of his verbiage choices forever.]

[Private]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

I'm sure it'll be ok...

Private to Bertie and Yukiko

[turnbuckle]

What's a bee? That metaphor kind of falls flat without that information...

Anyway. If my world didn't have bees, there's no reason to think his would...maybe he's heard of knocking boots? Laying some eggs? The beast with two backs?

[She's trying to get SOMETHING here]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

[Excuse her for getting very red in the face.

And also Noble Steed chanting 'KNOCKING BOOTS! KNOCKING BOOTS!']

[tinkertytonk]

[Bertie's just covering his face with his hooves when he responds to this. Someone heard something from Yukiko.]

It's not what I meant. It's not what I meant at all.

[And wonderful, now he knows a slew of other euphemisms for unmentionable acts that he never wants to hear about. Ever.]

[turnbuckle]

Sorry. It's just that...well, an adult who doesn't know about this is kind of a cause for concern. Especially now that this post is public...

[Noble Steed is kind of cute, though.]

It's just.

I mean, I had the idea that he didn't know some words changed their meaning, but I wouldn't have pulled his leg earlier if I'd have known it was this bad...

[gigglesnortpriestess]

Like what exactly?

[turnbuckle]

I just teased him and told him it sounded like a real sausagefest.

And then I maaaaay have made a few silly food puns. Not much other than that...

[gigglesnortpriestess]

I may not get the food puns either.

[turnbuckle]

Yeah, I...think I was a little too merciless with him.

He's as innocent as a newborn baby bird, at least when it comes to this sort of thing.

how?
