[Did somebody say real food? Because I think somebody ordered some pastries a while ago~ Not too long after they land, Winn might see a short, pink, SKIPPING pony looking around the streets for... HIM apparently, since her face lights up when she sees his face!]

Hi, Winn~!

[winn]

[ someone did, SOMEONE DID! hi he's someone he's someone!!!! /jumps around up and down holding his hand up as far as it goes pick him, pick him!!!!!

he stops when he hears his name and - holy shit the talking pink pony is real. his face lights up like the 4th of july. ]

-- Pinkie! [ he waves excitedly. ] Wow you're - wow - [ don't say real, that'd be rude, don't say real, that'd be rude, don't say real, that'd be rude - how do you first meeting with a pony? petting seems like the wrong choice but oh my god he wants to. ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Just don't be these two meanies and you should be good.]

Heehee thanks, YOU'RE pretty wow too!

[winn]

[ oh he'll go a whole other way than those two. ]

Thanks! [ he's not sure what that means but you know what, he's gonna take it as a compliment. ]

Can I ask you something? Just -- I'm sorry, I'm just -- I've never met a - someone like you - before - [ he's seen horses but you know, there have been no introductions. ] how do you, um. How do you greet someone on a first meeting?

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Oh my gosh, you are the most precious human ever, aren't you?]

Oh, that's easy! We usually say hi!

[Suddenly glomp to the legs, and Winn's probably gonna get a nigh-literal sugar rush because WOW is this pony made of sunshine and joy!]

But hugs work great too~!

[winn]

[ he laughs oh god she's hugging him THE PINK TALKING PONY IS HUGGING HIM this is one of the weirdest but also greatest days of his life is it ok to pat her mane as she hugs him? he's gonna go for it.

he's going for it.

it's so soft!! ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

[It is the softest, most cotton candy mane ever and the pat gets a little giggle out of her, such a nice human.]

[winn]

[ can he just pet her forever?? his excitement is clear on his face - as well as through the touch of his skin. he's reluctant to retract his hand and let go, but does eventually because this is probably weird - in some. unclear way, he's still dealing with the weirdness of talking pony, ok! ]

It's really nice to meet you in person. Or in. Pony?

[spontaneouscombustion]

Heehee, it's great meeting you for real too! ESPECIALLY since I've got something for you~

[It does appear she has some full saddlebags draped over her back, doesn't she?]

[winn]

[ she sure does! he lights up ]

Is that what I think that is!

[spontaneouscombustion]

I dunno, what do YOU think it is~?

[Spoilers: she totally knows what it is.]

[winn]

[ pretending to mull it over!!! ]

Intel Core i7-4790k CPU?

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Blink.] ... A what?

[winn]

[ laughing, sorry. he kinda had to. ]

...cookies?

[spontaneouscombustion]

Ohhhh why didn't you say so! Hee I don't know about THOSE kind of cookies, but I do have some other kinds~

[She holds the bags up to him by the connecting strap. There are indeed cookies in there. And pocket pies, and little boxes of donuts.]

[winn]

[ correcting her would probably just result in confusing her - and some people have reacted badly to him trying to tech talk around them, so he just drops it. it's easily done when he sees that haul.

gasping. ]

You're the best Pinkie - [ that look on his face? that's pure unadulterated bliss. ] thank you!

[spontaneouscombustion]

Awww, you're welcome, Winn~! I LOVE making people smile!

[It's literally her purpose in life after all.]

[winn]

Best hobby.

[ he approves so hard! she gets an excited hug that makes it clearer than it should be how much he appreciates it. he's still not used to anyone going to trouble for him, and it's a pretty great feeling. ]

Thank you so much, they look really great.

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Awww poor baby... She makes sure to put some extra good vibes in that hug in return.]

Aw, my pleasure~! They taste as great as they look, if I do say so myself~

[winn]

[ that is so sweet he's not sure what to do with it. the pony is officially on his list of favorite people, and he doesn't care that doesn't make any sense! ]

I bet they taste even better. [ he's gonna try a cookie! because cookies! it's been so long!!!

his face is pure bliss at the first bite. ]

I should've bet money -- [ practically melting into a satisfied puddle ] Pinkie, they're amazing! You are my hero!

[spontaneouscombustion]

This way to more cookies.
