A Birthday Party for Molly

[Guu]

As the sun rolled up from the horizon the next day and parted their way through the trees to touch the town, the people of Ambrosia barely rustled in their beds when the final touches of the party has been put into motion. Pinkie was up uncharacteristically early today, though when your clock ticks to the rhythm of a sound machine, mornings were just delayed nights.

The pink one checked over her check list, once, twice, the scanned the city, peering at each attraction. Her volunteers checked all the circuits, the absurd network of wires, just making sure everything was in place and in order. They had no worry of a shortage, the fierce currents that make up the underground reservoir gave them all the power they’d ever need, but all the water in the world couldn’t save them from any loose plugs. In fact, water would make matters worse in that situation.

As soon as her volunteers returned, she checked over her checklist again, which only had six items on it to begin with. She took her eyes away from the board, placing in her hair in which it disappeared into her bushy curls. She placed her right front leg on her chest and breathed in deep, then extended it out forward as she exhaled. This breath exercise was more Twilight’s thing, but Pinkie had to admit, it came useful in stressful moments like these.

Her nerves calmed, she looked up at the beaver, his paw a lever, waiting for the pony’s order. With a single nod, the flat-tailed mammal flipped the switch.

The power traveled down the way, snaking through the empty streets, sending light to hundreds of paper lanterns. As slowly the city lit up, they pony’s eyes glimmered as well.



Amongst the city wide party, a great number of attractions have been set up. The bounce mansion and the pool full of jello were of the first additions, but many more now dart the horizon.

A ferris wheel, an addition put together by the efforts of a local circus group, towered over the city, giving its riders a perfect view. Though, not as much of a view as you’d get from the rollercoaster. A group of pegasi arranged an elaborate one out of clouds that twist and turn all over town. The some of the fastest pegasi pull the carts themselves, giving one hell of a ride.

The moogles have put together a giant toy dispenser that you’d need to use your full body to twist the nob. With a few om coins and a bit of effort, it releases giant capsules with human sized dolls inside. At the town’s park, a giant art gallery is going on. Paintings and sculptures, human and non-human alike.

As the morning continued, businesses all over town have set up stalls to peddle their wares, just lining the street with tables full of goods from all over the Omniverse, some even exclusive to Ambrosia.

And as one last added surprise, random piles of fireless fireworks have been placed all over town. Just a harmless explosion of light that goes off at strong emotions of love; romantic or platonic.

In the town square is a pile of presents for Molly that’s slowly getting more and more ridiculous in size.


Pinkie watched for hours. She so wanted to join in the festivities, but at the same time, she wanted to bask in the world she created. When she finally moved to join the party, she could almost feel a tear roll down her cheek.

This was the third best day of her life.
