Story
Introduction
Good news -- our other-dimensional pony friends will be visiting again soon! Ahhh, memories... Smoozes aside, that Bestie Festie was absolutely A-MANE-ZING!
I think THIS visit calls for another party. And since it's getting warm outside... a summertime soirée is EXACTLY what everypony needs!
First things first: I need to taste-test each and every cupcake that our guest ponies of honor will be eating. I want the flavors to be just right!
After Stage 1
Phew... The decorations I got really are JUST RIGHT for the party! And here I was worried I'd get the wrong kind of neon...
Now: Time to prepare!! First things first... herding all this wandering livestock out of the dedicated Party Pasture before the guests arrive. I love petting zoos, but this isn't one of 'em!
After Stage 2
Phew! Think that's the last of 'em. Happy to lend a helping hoof for the cause, Pinkie!
Awwww... Thanks, AJ! I couldn't do it without my besties!
And look: You've just helped clean up the absolute best place in all of Ponyville to have this party, just in time for all our guests to arrive!
Bring out the welcoming committee, everypony: We've got other-dimensional guests to greet! Welcome, one and all, to Ponyville's very own spectacular summertime soirée!
After Stage 3
You all really put together this party for us? Ohh, this all looks delightful! Thank you so much!
Hee hee! Well, I may have done a LITTLE research into your home dimension to see what you all are fans of, first... And speaking of which: WHO'S UP FOR BEACH VOLLEYBALL?!?!
Because we've got Horseshoe Bay local champions Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara to challenge all comers! Who here's up for a challenge?!
After Stage 4
Phew! That was some workout!
Hee hee! Back when Shining Armor was in school, the Wonderbolts used to play beach volleyball in-between hardcore flight training sessions -- so I thought it'd be your speed, too!
You all keep playing -- I'm gonna flit over to some of our other guests and make sure THEY'RE having fun, too!
HELLO! How are you ponies doing over here? Ogres & Oubliettes is a CLASSIC, isn't it? I made sure to dust off the First Edition box sets to make sure you'd be comfortable with the ruleset...
After Stage 5
I read that, a generation ago, Ogremasters of yore used to host games like these outdoors! Just imagine the magic... the thrill... the LARP--ness of it all!
Ooh, I sure can! Wanna join us and play a couple rounds?
Confetti? I would LOVE to... if I didn't have a DANCE COMPETITION to emcee! Now: I wanted to get this EXACTLY right, so I checked out two VERY reliable references...
... And I'm PRETTY sure that whoever wins this dance-off gets to announce that breakprancing isn't banned in steel mills anymore?
... Yeah, I thought it was confusing, too. But in case somepony ever builds a steel mill in Ponyville, I personally am OVERJOYED that we'll all be allowed to breakprance in it! LET'S DO THIS!!!
After Stage 6
We're all really enjoying this soirée, Pinkie Pie! So much of it reminds us of our home dimension... and we really appreciate all the research and details!
We like seeing you all enjoy the things we do love from back home! But maybe... you could show us what THIS dimension's culture is like, too? We're curious to see what YOU do for fun!
Hold on! You want to experience MORE from OUR dimension? Wow... I was so worried you all missed your home... it totally slipped my mind that you might WANT a change of pace!
Buuuuttt now that I'm thinking about it... That's a GREAT idea! And I can think of about a BILLION hometown pony fun-time activities I wanna show you!
Like... BUCKBALL! This sport is SUPER popular in our dimension -- and it's got positions for every kind of pony there is! Take it from Snips and Rainbow Dash: They'll train you right up!
After Stage 7
Woo! Good game, everypony -- you all made an AMAZING team!
YEAH! I'm up for a rematch anytime!
Well, you better hold onto that energy, Powder -- 'cause you'll need it for our END-OF-THE-NIGHT TOP-FORTY DANCE PARTY!!!
That's right: Ponyville's favorite DJs are here to pump you up and finish off this soirée on a high note, with more modern hits than you can even CONCEIVE OF! WOOO! HERE COMES THE HYPE TRAIN!!!
Ending
Pinkie Pie... this has been a fantastic night! I've never been to a party like this before... but it truly is the best of two dimensions!
But next time, how about we host a party at OUR home, and invite you all?
That - That would be incredible! THANK YOU!!!
*sniff...!* Ohh, I'm always SO happy to make new friends...! I declare this summertime soirée a SUCCESS!
