The Elements of Friendship, Thursday, Period 1

[locointhecoco]

The Danger Shop today was programmed to resemble a barren, rocky field, nothing but dirt and rocks as far as the eye could see. Above the field drifted a bright pink hot air balloon, and in the balloon basket sat Pinkie, peering down at the students with a broad grin, one hoof braced on a megaphone.

"WELCOME STUDENTS!" she crowed. "Today's an easy one! This field is full of pretty pretty gemstones! Grab a gemstone finder," she pointed to a pile of fake unicorn horns on headbands, "and get digging! Whoever digs up the most wins!"

The Diamond Dogs were entirely unprepared for this. "Then dig, pony!"

Pinkie had only just stopped thinking of all her students and neighbors as being either ponies or weird hairless bears. She hadn't even heard of humanoid aliens, yet.

"I am not a pony, either," Spock informed the Diamond Dogs. Perhaps he really was trying to confuse them.

"You're not a dog!" said the Diamond dogs. "Are you a mule?"

"No," said Spock. "I am a Vulcan."

The Diamond dog blinked at him blankly for a moment, as though a program were getting stuck on a subroutine. Then it flung its arms into the air.

"VULCAN CAN DIG GEMS!"
