14 Cupcakes: Aaaaaaaapple? >3

[sailorlaughter]

[Pinkie's in the cafeteria deck, rolling happily around on the grass.] GUYS! Hey guys! This is totally the best week ever, am I right? Check out all the grass and these cool apple trees! They're JUST LIKE back home in Ponyville!

[Most of the trees around Pinkie are actually picked clean. The reason for this quickly becomes clear as Cammy pans around to show a table covered in apple pies. ALL the apple pies. Pinkie hops up next to it, beaming with pride.]

And you know what the best thing to do with apples is, right? THAT'S RIGHT! It's TOTALLY pies! Come get 'em while they're hot! Oh, oh, and Maes, this one's just for you!

[He manages to catch his breath again at least, buuuut he still doesn't look okay]

Oooh, Pinkie, I don't feel so hot, man. [If he could do the @_@ face he totally would right now]

[sailorlaughter]

90s Kid? [Pinkie leans up, putting a hoof on his knee, and produces a glass.] Here, have some milk!

[liefeldisgod]

[He reaches out to take it, but before he can grasp it he suddenly blacks out, faceplanting right into the apple pie with a splat.]

[sailorlaughter]

[She jumps back in surprise, dropping the glass.] 90s Kid!

...90s Kid? [She rolls him over and wipes some of the pie off his face. Is he asleep? She pokes him in the side a few times, then plops down and headtilts at him when she gets no response. Most ponies finish at least one or two of her pies before they need to take a nap...

She thinks a few more moments, then pulls a noisemaker out of her tail and blows it right next to his ear.]

[liefeldisgod]

[It's not very effective...]

[sailorlaughter]

...huh. That's weird.

...

HEY 90S KID!

[liefeldisgod]

[He only snores in response.]

[sailorlaughter]

[And now the other pie-eaters are beginning to drop. Pinkie's ears go flat in alarm, and she begins prodding 90s Kid more frantically in the cheek.]

90s Kid? C'mon, this isn't funny!

[liefeldisgod]

[Nope, sorry.]

[sailorlaughter]

[As the others continue to drop, Pinkie's alarm spreads throughout the Satellite. As does a certain realization about exactly why this was happening. A few minutes later, Pinkie comes back and plops down next to 90s Kid with a sigh.] I bet Applejack never has this problem...

[After a few minutes, she lifts her head and looks at 90s Kid again.] Y'know, I've heard this story lots of times before. My mommy used to tell it to us back on the farm! I guess maybe I should've thought about it before...

[The story ended okay, though. The mare woke up. Pinkie narrowed her eyes contemplatively at 90s Kid. She wasn't his One True Love or anything...but hey, it was worth a shot, wasn't it? There wasn't anyone else around to see her anyway. The pink pony flicked her tail awkwardly a few times, then shut her eyes, leaned forward, and gave 90s Kid a quick kiss on the cheek.]

[liefeldisgod]

[Well that...actually got a reaction of some sort. There's an odd sort of flush in 90s Kid's face as Pinkie kisses him, and finally he starts to stir slowly]

Mmmrnfive m're minutes mom...zzzz

[sailorlaughter]

[Oh! Oh, wow! It really worked! Pinkie hopped excitedly to her feet, poking him in the side again.]

90S KID! Hey, wake up!

[Maybe he needed more kissing. Her second attempt came a lot faster and with less awkwardness, landing firmly on his forehead.]

[liefeldisgod]

Mm...nnhwha? Whassat?

[He cracks an eye open with the second kiss, still very groggy and still waking up.]

[sailorlaughter]

[She's all up in his face instantly.] HI 90S KID! TIME TO GET UP!

[liefeldisgod]

Woah what? [and he's up instantly] Pinkie?!

Oh, woah man sorry dudette, I guess I was tired or somethin'

[sailorlaughter]

90s KID!

[She flings her forelegs around him.] YOU'RE OKAY! Ohmygosh, I was so so SO worried! You were eating and then you just fell asleep and so did everybody else - [yeah there's definitely some bodies around] - and I think the apples were cursed or something! I'm so sorry!

[liefeldisgod]

Gah!

[He stumbles a moment, awkwardly patting Pinkie on the head.] It's...alright?

[sailorlaughter]

I wonder if we can break the curses on the others the same way...we should probably try it just in case!

[liefeldisgod]

[He blinks] What way? What're you talkin' about?

[sailorlaughter]

[She giggles and pokes him.] Well, DUH! Haven't you ever heard the story of Snow White? Or Sleeping Beauty? My mom said her real name was Black Beauty, but everypony called her Sleeping after her little accident! And that's why you don't play with magic potions!

[liefeldisgod]

[He starts to frown a little at that.]

Oh...yeah.

Uh...I dunno, Pinks. I don't kiss guys. And I'm a married dude anyway!

[sailorlaughter]

Oh, that's okay! You can just do any girls we find! You only have to kiss them on the cheek, and it's just to fix them - Minako totally won't mind!

[liefeldisgod]

[He still fidgets uncomfortably.]

[sailorlaughter]

[Pinkie starts bouncing off, completely oblivious.] Well, come on! We've got a BUNCH of sleepyheads to wake up!

[liefeldisgod]

[He scratches his head awkwardly, slowly shuffling over to follow her.]
