Friendship is Cakes!! - 3rd Period, Wednesday

Pinkie Pie had on a chef's hat and a yellow and blue mustache drawn on her face with icing.

She liked to make a good first impression. Derek had no yellow and blue mustache (he had a pretty epic stubble beard going on) and no need to make a good first impression. Instead, he had a frown.

The frown might have been aimed at the icing mustache. Because how did she even manage that?

The world may never know.

"Hihihihi everypony!" Pinkie greeted with a manic wave of a hoof. "Welcome to Friendship is . . . Baking? No, that was last time. Psssst!" she hissed sotto voce at Derek. "What did we officially name this one again?"

Oh god, she wanted Derek to remember? "Cake… decorating?" he ventured.

"Friendship is cake decorating?" Pinkie frowned thoughtfully. "That doesn't sound very snazzy. And it doesn't have nearly enough exclamation points on it. Oh well!" She threw up her hooves in a "whatever" kind of gesture. "Welcome to a friendshippy class about cakes! I'm Pinkie Pie!" And she held up a heart-shaped cake with her winking face drawn on it, framed by her yellow and blue cutie mark, with an illegible scrawl of black icing as a caption. "See?"

"She's real, you're not hallucinating," Derek added dryly. "You get used to it."

"He's Derek," Pinkie said, and held up another cake, this one circular with a big grey wolf on it. "Isn't he talented?!"

Derek huffed because that cake had been for friendship only, Pinkie. Not for sharing. "We're going to introduce ourselves with a cake that says something about you."

Friendship is sharing, Derek. "We've gots lots and lots and lots of different cakes for you!" Pinkie said, holding up several different shaped blank sheetcakes along with the two decorated ones she already had. "And lots and lots and lots of different colored icings!" A veritable rainbow of icing bags were added to the array, all held up at the end of a hoof. Seriously, was she secretly a bright pink milipede? "And what class would be complete without glitter!"

The big vat of shiny edible gold dust was apparently just one item too many for her. Pinkie went from proud to distressed as she stumbled, then desperately tried to keep all the cakes and icings and glitters balanced. She staggered back and forth across the room, letting out little "whoooooooooaaaaa, whooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"s as she went.

The students might want to take cover.

Cassandra looked at the cake.

Then at her teachers.

Then at the cake.

"No," she said.

Well, so far, Cassandra did dislike him less than the pony?

"Why?" Cassandra demanded. "This does not seem very useful."

"She will sing, and then cry, because I refuse to put icing on a cake," Cassandra said flatly. "What qualifies her to teach?"

"I fail to see how that is relevant."

Of course you did, Cassandra.

This was definitely the weirdest room Amy had ever been in.

The way things were going, it looked like she was going to spend most of the class period staring. Her cake, sloppily assembled toward the end of class, was decorated with a bad icing rendition of a film reel.

"'Cause I like documentaries." That was her presentation. Wasn't it thorough?

Ducking! So much ducking! Because being covered in glitter and icing did not seem like a good way to start the class.

And yet also, smiling. Because-- it was a pink pony. That talked. Hanna was irresistibly reminded of Mr. Knepfler, and his silly dance, and singing. Which was a little sad, too, but-- really. PINK.

Then she wound up staring at the cake, trying to think of how to represent herself. In frosted cakes.

Hanna nodded solemnly at him, reaching for the icing sleeve. Then stopping, and grabbing the blue one for no reason.

HANNA was spelled out pretty easily, and then... A huff. "How would you represent hunting?"

A bow? A gun? Her first impulse was a dead elk, but that seemed complicated. And people might react badly.

"Documentaries?"

After five days here, Hanna's paranoia had settled down to the point where it was nice to see familiar, new faces.

What he'd scent was someone a little... more human? DNA-compromised? What *was* the right term here?

Oblivious to this, Hanna blurted, "Elk. And caribou. Although rabbit is fine when there is nothing else, and it makes lovely mittens." She paused and added, "But I don't think those blue deer would taste very good."

"I'm not a very good artist," Amy said by way of defense, holding up her hands as proof. They were completely covered with icing and sprinkles. "Plus I don't actually like frosting."

That wasn't really true. Frosting was okay. What she really didn't like was getting frosting all over herself and her clothes.
