15 Cupcakes: Meet the Family!

[sailorlaughter]

Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you know I'm gonna be out of town this weekend! It's Faaaather's Day!

[Horns blow and confetti flies as she spins to show what looks like the inside of a small farmhouse, sparsely and soberly decorated save for the balloons now festooned everywhere. They, and Pinkie, seem to be the only actual color in the place. There's also one old gray mare, one younger purplish-gray mare, and a brown stallion there, looking exactly as grim and sober as if they'd stepped out of Equestrian Gothic. Pinkie throws a foreleg around the stallion's neck.]

This is my family! I mean, not my my family, but same thing! This is my Daddy, and Ma, and my big sister Maud!

[The younger gray mare says in a monotone:] Hello.

They were all just so excited to hear about you guys, I HAD to let you meet them! My younger sisters Inkie and Blinkie are coming in later tonight, maybe I'll call you all back then!

[And like before with The Pie family, Trixie does not get the praise she expects and sighs.]

Same as always, Trixie sees.

I reckon.

[Pinkie, who had gone off to confer with the other two, hops back into frame.] Trixie! I TOTALLY never knew you used to work here! That's just SO super-great - and look what good friends you all are already! [She slings a foreleg over her father's shoulders cheerfully.] This is so great! You should come visit with me sometime!

[Trixie is a tiny bit surprised when sudden Pinkie taking over the entire scroll. She quickly recovers.]

Trixie needs no friends. And alas, there was a time when Trixie was made to work such a job so unbefitting of her status and skills.

Was pretty unbefittin'.

Yeah, they told me. It takes a LOT of training to be really good at rock farming, y'know? Don't worry about it!
