Pony Express: Friendship is Cultural Exchange! Wednesday, period 1

Pinkie wasn't waiting for the class as usual outside Portalocity today, which probably wasn't too surprising considering that she'd managed to miss the portal home last week and hadn't been spotted on the island at all since. Still, the portal opened right on time, showing a towering crystal gate and a path to a bright, shining city in the distance.

Then Pinkie burst halfway through the portal, eyes wide and bright, and let out a gleeful *squee* when she spotted everypony. "It worked! Omigosh you guys, I just had the most amazing time! When we were in Las Pegasus I guess last week for you guys I got hit with a spell that my bestest friend Twilight was doing that reversed my cutie mark and made me think I was destined to be an apple farmer and then Twilight had to figure out how to reverse the spell again and then REWRITE THE WHOLE SPELL FROM SCRATCH which is amazing and something nopony has ever done before and that's why she's an alicorn pony princess now! ISN'T THAT EXCITING?! After her coronation we had to sacrifice our elements of harmony which we've only used to save Equestria like a bajillion times to save Equestria all over again from evil chaos trees and now there's a mysterious chest we don't know how to open and Rarity totally made it to fashion week like we thought and it turns out I'm part of Applejack's giant extended family maybe possibly and I met a guy named Cheese Sandwich who tried to steal my party planning thunder but then it turns out he figured out his own party planning destiny watching me and he gave me his very bestest rubber chicken!" Pinkie whipped said rubber chicken out of nowhere and swung it around gleefully by the neck a few times, then blinked. "OH AND. Twilight had to chase a pony through a magic mirror into a human world to get her princess crown back and now she's learned about some human magic and portals and things, which is how we figured out that even though it's been practically forever over here, it might only be a week in Fandom time and I should rush super-duper quick up here to the Crystal Empire to see if I could catch the portal and find you guys AND IT WORKED! So now you're just in time to come and see the Crystal Faire and ISN'T THAT SO EXCITING?!"

Did anypony follow that? No? Yeah, Pinkie probably didn't, either.

Pinkie beckoned everypony through the portal and started leading the way towards the big crystal city. "The Crystal Empire is a very special magic pony community made up of actual crystal ponies! They're see through and everything! They actually disappeared about a thousand years ago for years and years and years because they had to protect . . . love and understanding or something . . . from an evil warlock pony out to take over and destroy it all. I think. Maybe. It was awhile ago? I forget the details. Anywho, they were all gone in stasis or asleep or just vanished for so long that lots of ponies forgot they ever existed, but then one day a couple years ago in pony-time they just -- reappeared! Nopony even knows why! But my friends and I had to come up here and throw the very first Crystal Faire in a thousand years to get the ponies back to their normal magical crystal pony selves and help Princess Cadence and Shining armor defeat the evil king Sombra, so it seemed just perfect to have you all come by and see the very second Crystal Faire! The crystal ponies hold the Crystal Faire to boost their spirits so they can focus all their love and joy at the crystal heart and spread love to all of Equestria!" Pinkie popped up on her hind legs to spread her hooves in the air, creating a temporary rainbow between them to accompany her lecture. "Of course, there was plenty of love in Equestria even without the Crystal Empire around? But I try not to tell them that."

Someday, somepony would point out to Pinkie that that was not actually a whisper.

"So go on and check it out, everyhuman! There's crystal berry punch and crystal corn and flugelhorns!" Nopony let Pinkie have a flugelhorn. "And traditional crafts and even jousting! Fun for everypony! And human! And human-shaped other-type-beings!"
