Double Date!

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Well, this sure has been A Month (and that's BEFORE all the stuff erupts with Kylo and the people from Glenwood). But for now, all is good after finding Furiosa, and since it's usually around now when the Marsiva starts to leave, Pinkie and Poe figure now's the perfect time for that double date! Cirrusa here they come!]

[preformthisneigh]

[Finding Furiosa has at least made Cheese less on edge. She's safe and okay and that's good. He can relax. Or as much as he can relax in an actual non-party social environment anyway. He'll be trotting after Pinkie, trusting her on this one because yep. She's definitely way better at this than he will ever be. ]

So. You know them well?

[spontaneouscombustion]

Oh of course! They're part of my crew after all, AND Finn's the first human I ever saw! And Poe's from his world and now his special somebody too, AND he's our pilot so he's been wanting to meet you for a while now!

[helluva_pilot]

[And here are the humans in question. Poe's wearing his bright orange jumpsuit, because of course he is.]

Hey, Pinkie!

[forcesensitive]

[Finn, meanwhile, is in his usual jacket. He looks a bit nervous, but smiles nonetheless. He's still not really sure about this whole "dating" thing.]

Hey, Pinkie! Cheese. So where are we going?

[preformthisneigh]

[Cheese offers a wide smile and a wave of a forehoof. ]

Hey there. And beats me, I was leaving it for ladies choice.

[spontaneouscombustion]

Pffft Cheesy, I'm the only girl here, can't put ALL that pressure on me!

Buuuut Poe DID show me this great place with a greater veggie pizza!

[helluva_pilot]

Oh yeah, that place is a good choice. Something for everyone there.

And I guess you're Cheese, right? Nice to finally meet the legend in the flesh.

[forcesensitive]

Sounds good. I keep hearing pizza is the best food ever.

[Which to be fair he hears about a lot of foods, but one thing's for sure: it all beats what he had beforehand. So they start making their way toward the restaurant in question, looking like it's perfectly normal for two ponies and two humans to be all together. Funny enough, in a spaceport town? It doesn't even get a second glance.]

[preformthisneigh]

[He flashes Poe a wide smile.]

That's me, the one and only. Nice to meet you, too. Pinkie thinks you're pretty great, and I trust her judgement on most things.

[On everything. He'll just head off towards the food.]

You've never had pizza?

[spontaneouscombustion]

Ugh, I know, right? The people that raised him were AWFUL, he thinks the gels on the ships having flavor is an imrpovement!

[helluva_pilot]

Well, I do my best to keep on Pinkie's good side. No pilot worth his salt ever wants to make his engineer mad.

[Well, in Finn's defense...]

We don't actually have pizza where we're from anyway. There's some stuff that's kind of similar, but not quite the same.

[forcesensitive]

Hey, the gels are an improvement. But--yeah, mostly it's that we don't have it back home. I heard about it a couple times here, though, so it must be pretty good?

So obviously you can make it with vegetables. What else is it made with? What's the best way to have it, and I don't mean with hot sauce.

[preformthisneigh]

As somepony who was once on Pinkie's very bad side, that's a very good life choice.

[Seriously. Pinkie's rage is a thing of true terror. ]

Welll, some humans eat it with meat or fish. Obviously, me and Pinkie don't because herbivores. OH OH, and cupcakes are the best topping. Ever. Hooves down.

[spontaneouscombustion]

[And that's coming from the guy who HASN'T broken a Pinkie promise.]

Aw, Cheesy, that's all water under the bridge!

And YES cupcakes are AMAZING on pizza! Hee, although make sure to add those AFTER you bake the pizza or the icing gets all melty!

[helluva_pilot]

[He knows which side his power coils get tuned up on.]

Huh. Was there that kind of pizza there when we went? I didn't notice.

[He nudges Finn.]

Don't worry, me'n Pinkie will take all the hot sauce so it can't hurt you.

[forcesensitive]

[Finn looks super unsure about cupcakes being a topping on anything. Are they pulling his leg? With Pinkie, at least, it's hard to tell. Then again, he's admittedly not a pizza expert.]

Do we order one all together or get pieces? I'll try anything as long as Poe gets all my hot sauce.

[preformthisneigh]

You can absolutely get it if you ask for it.

[Because they absolutely did. He offers Finn a grin. ]

It's okay, we can ask for half with hot sauce and half without. I'm firmly with you in the "no thank you" territory.

[spontaneouscombustion]

You sure can! And I can make one for you guys sometime for sure!

[Fast forward a few days and everything is drowned in all the feels ever.]

Heehee, more for us, right, Poe? [Hoofbump?]

[helluva_pilot]

Even better, cause everything you make is great.

[In case no one noticed, Poe basically thinks the sun rises and sets on his engineer.

And hell yeah, fistbump.]

Dunno how we ended up with two such delicate gentlemen, Pinkie.

[forcesensitive]

[Finn make a face of mock outrage and gives Poe a light shoulder punch.]

All right, half hot sauce, all over vegetables. Let's do this.

[Of course, there's some time while they're cooking the pizza. Finn orders a soda to pass the time.]

Rather be delicate than missing half my taste buds, anyway.

[preformthisneigh]

Tell me about it. I like my mouth to be not on fire.

You guys can enjoy your burning hot sensations as much as you like.

[spontaneouscombustion]

In that case, if you ever find yourself in the Weather Factory, DON'T taste the rainbow! It's too spicy even for ME!

[She turns to the waiter before they go.]

Ooh, and I'll have a root beer float, please!

[helluva_pilot]

That's us. We're burning hot. [Grin. Because what's life without a cheesey line now and then?]

Okay, now I want to try out a rainbow. You gotta make this happen for me, Pinkie.

[Poe's going for a beer. He's not flying after this.]

[forcesensitive]

[Finn copies Poe's drink order and leans back in his chair as the waiter brings it all over.]

And here I thought tasting the rainbow was an ad slogan for those fruits from Ithor.
