Tending Plus One!

[havetubawilltravel]

It's a much bouncier Pinkie who emerges from the Everfree Forest entrance to the bar today; happier, cheerier, and completely self-assured. You might even hear her humming a catchy tune under her breath. Don't ask how she learned it. It was probably a request from her to Bar.

She boings to a stool and pats the bar. "Hiya, Miss Bar! I hope you're having a superdy-duper day!" In response, she gets a tiny pink napkin. "Can I do an end-of-summer Bartending for you? Can I?!" Then she leans in and says, loudly and aside, "WHAT'S A SUMMER?!"

Another napkin appears. "Okey dokey!" Pinkie says, nodding firmly. "I understand completely."

She doesn't, but she thinks she gets the general gist of it. Soon she's behind the bar, and with some effort there appears a menu, which reads just like this:


End of Sommer Sumer Summer Harvest Party!
(money off if you come in wearing a snorkel and flippers! Even more if you can hula while you wear them!)

MENU:

Blueberry Iced Tea $1.40
lemonade Mint Spritzers $3.50
Banana Split Mega Milkshakes $2.00

SUPER FLAMING BANANA SURPRISE $2.00 (With Ice Cream - $2.50)

COOKIES!
ALL KINDS!
$.50 EACH
(If you don't see it, ask!)

In a second, the bar is strewn with festive streamers, a dusting of confetti, a dotting of the bar with plastic fruit arrangements, and a smiling bartender who's making herself the biggest ice cream sundae possible.

"If you wanna drink or a snack," she calls, "Come on up!"

And with that, bartending is open for the evening!

(And in the distance, there is also a bored blonde cop in a sarong drinking something powerful. The display before her causes her to raise an eyebrow.

"When did they start letting horses in here?" she asks no one in particular.

[OOC: A special Pinkie Pie 'tending for Labor Day Weekend, with bonus Clementine!. Player is around all night, prioritizing this post and backtagging others, though things will be slow initially while I attend to shower and dishes. Open til the next tending!]

The Count swooped into the bar, he was happy, his son had been suspended, it was a good day. The pink horse at the bar was cause to stop, though.

"Uh....," is all he can say.

[havetubawilltravel]

Woah, swooping! Pinkie is kinda impressed, but she misreads his confusion. "I know, can you believe it?!" Pinkie claps her hooves together. "The bar has SEVENTY MILLION KINDS OF ICE CREAM!"

Her intent? To eat them all.

[not_that_count]

"A pink talking horse," mumbled the Count. The fact that she is pink, and happy, and a horse is a little frightening to him.

[havetubawilltravel]

"Yep!" Pinkie says, "And you're a big talking human guy - person?" she squints. "You ARE called persons, right?"

They don't have persons in Equestria but Pinkie's been adapting over the past few years.

[not_that_count]

"I am not human," said the Count. He was beginning to wrap his head around a talking pink horse, " I am a Vampire.... And yes I am a person, though there is a debate about the person-hood of my servant Renfield. He is more of a walking pustule."

[havetubawilltravel]

"Oops!" she says. Then she winces. "Eww, I didn't know puss could walk. What kind of person is a vampire? Do you do a special thing?"

[a1enzo]

"What's surprising about the Super Flaming Banana Surprise besides it being on fire?"

[havetubawilltravel]

"It comes with every single flavor of ice cream bar has. Which is a SUPER, super lot!" Pinkie says.

[a1enzo]

Enzo's eyes bug a bit.

"Is it, like, a spoonful of each?" he asks hopefully, because, even for a bottomless pit of a teenager, that is a daunting prospect bordering on frightening.

[havetubawilltravel]

"A half a scoop each with LOTS of toppings and nuts and whipped cream and sprinkles! And the bananas," she makes sure to add.

[a1enzo]

"Sounds... good if you had someone to share it with."

Like, oh, THE ENTIRE BAR.

[a1enzo]

"Oh, there've been ponies coming here for a while," Enzo informs Clem. "If they're sapient, they're patrons, y'know? And it's not like they're too big to fit."

[hey35andholding]

She raises an eyebrow. "Whatever, man. As long as I don't have to pick up the crap they leave behind."

[a1enzo]

"Clem, they're sapient. I'm pretty sure they just use the bathroom."

[hey35andholding]

"They let horses use the bathroom?!" She snorts. "So, what do they do? And more importantly - where do the centaurs go when they need to use the can?"

[a1enzo]

"I didn't ask them! Anyway, I use the bathroom here, and you remember about me and water. It's Milliways, it makes accommodations. It gives me a toilet that won't short me out or catch fire, I'm pretty sure it gives them whatever works for them."

Commode accommodations. Heh.

[aworldbetween]

"My word..." She whispers to herself at the sight of the pink, talking horse. A smile forms on her face. This bar never ceases to amaze her. Vanessa moves closer to the bar tending horse, pulling money out of a small purse. "The blueberry iced tea, have you tried it?"

[havetubawilltravel]

"Absofruitly!" Pinkie grins. "I even picked all the berries myself!"

[aworldbetween]

"Wonderful. So it's fresh, then." The horse's mood is contagious. Soon Vanessa finds herself grinning, as well. "I think I'll have a glass."

[havetubawilltravel]

Pinkie puts together the drink in her usual slapdash manner. "I'll getcha a super tall one just to be sure you get ALL the fruit EVER."

[aworldbetween]

"That's very kind of you, thank you." Vanessa smiles brightly. A personable, talking horse - Who would have thunk it? "Do you enjoy bar tending?"

[forgottenmotley]

The streamers and confetti catch the Fool's attention and he's over there with in moments. "Pinkie Pie?" he asked cautiously. The Pinkie Pie he saw last time still stung with how dull she was. Not dull as in boring, but dull in spirit and life.

[havetubawilltravel]

"Well duh!" Pinkie replies jovially. "Who else would it be?" Then her eyes widen dramatically. "DID THE SUPER-CLONES ATTACK?"

[forgottenmotley]

"The last time I saw you ... you were dull..." he said, looking a bit more cheerful at her dramatic response.

[havetubawilltravel]

"Dull?!" She scratches her chin. "That's like really, really, REALLY weird. Did you ask Zecora if I was all cloney? I HAD to have been cloney!"
