Friendship is Cakes!! - 3rd Period, Wednesday

Pinkie had gold glitter on her face. Not in a "I had glitter on my hands and scratched my cheek and now it's on my face" way. In a "I stuck my nose into a bag of glitter to eat it like a horse eating oats" kind of way. A glittery goatee, if you will.

She didn't seem to have noticed.

It was okay, everyone would notice it for her. Derek, on the other hand, would steadfastly ignore it like a pro. If he didn't look at it, he didn't have to notice the glitter beard happening over there. "Today, the cakes are about consolation."

"Because not all cakes are happy cakes," Pinkie agreed. "Sometimes you need a cake because you're sad."

Who didn't enjoy gorging themselves on sugary goodness when dealing with bad day? Or, in Derek's case, a bad life. "The key is picking flavors the person will like. Like chocolate and peanutbutter."

Pinkie gasped. "I love chocolate!" Because that was a surprise to anypony. "And you should have a nice message on it, too! Like this!" And she pulled out an uncanny cake-copy of the internet favorite gold "you tried" star.

Of course she did. But, luckily for the class, Derek was there to balance out that intense optimism with his own internet meme cake. "Or this," he added.

That got you a side-eye from the glitter-bearded pink pony, Derek. "The important thing is that you don't make your friend cry more," she said. "So . . . you know best!"
