Hiiiiiii, everypony!

[The pink pony seems cheerfully oblivious to the Hebby Rep chewing on her head.] My name's Pinkie Pie, and I just gotta say, this is the coolest dream ever! Whoever set this up totally knew what they were doing! And I mean, I've had some real dream-doozies, like that time when everything in Ponyville turned into cake and I had to eat it all while Twilight played on the tuba, but I've never-ever dreamed up my very own shiny dream-lizard before!

[She lifts a foreleg to point, causing the spirit to leap and clamp his jaws around that instead. Pinkie smiles.] I think I'm gonna call him Toothy!

[sailorlaughter]

Yep! And Rarity was there too! And Twilight and Fluttershy and Dashie and Applejack, but they're not here now, so we probably can't use the Elements anymore even if I did bring my necklace.

Sure! [She reaches off-screen somewhere and drags in a large blue cannon.] It's made for quick party setup, but it's also pretty good at launching changelings!

[She just pulled a rather large item from somewhere. Thin air it seems. That's... Okay, Sora has no idea what to make of this. Whatever power Pinkie Pie has, it's interesting at least. Maybe also useful?]

Launching changelings?

[He's heard of changelings as some variety of monster or other. He's also learned that some monsters are different from world to world. However, right now Sora's more hung up on the idea of launching them out of a magic cannon that seems to be intended primarily for parties. He's forgotten the Nightmare mention for the moment.]

[sailorlaughter]

Yeah, they're like these black bug-ponies that can change shape and eat love! They tried to invade Canterlot one time.

[dork_of_keys]

Okay. I'll assume you were launching them at other changelings.

[They sound kind of like Heartless... in some ways. The eating love thing is weird, to say the least.]

[sailorlaughter]

Yeah. We fought them really well, but their army was super-big, so they still kinda caught us.

[dork_of_keys]

That can't have been fun. But it sounds like you did get out of it.

[sailorlaughter]

Princess Cadence and Shining Armor used a giant shield made of love to blow them all away! You'd THINK that wouldn't happen, 'cause they eat love and all, but I think it must've been like getting smacked with a giant sandwich or something!

[dork_of_keys]

[Actually that analogy makes Sora think of... something considerably more gruesome, but maybe that's what he gets for reading murder mysteries sometimes.]

Can't complain is it works, right?

[sailorlaughter]

Yep! We haven't seen them since, but I guess they must be somewhere or other. They can look like pretty much anypony. But I know I'm not one - I tried to grow wings to see!
