Cheese is Good, Cheese is Nice

Who: Pinkie Pie, Cheese Sandwich, and you!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: SS Iskaulit
When: October 23

[Frankly, this last shuffle could go to Tartarus in a wicker basket and a card reading "Dear Tirek: Dig In." But if there's one thing that could bring some joy back to Pinkie after losing a friend, it was making others happy. Especially by throwing a birthday party she'd been planning for months, and doubly especially for the love of her life, and someone who lifted her up after the hard weekend. So early-ish in the morning, those who Pinkie knew to be Cheese's close friends would get a video message.]

Morning, everybody~! Pinkie Pie here, and I've got a super DUPER special birthday I need help celebrating today! My super duper co-party planner and even super-duper-er special somepony Cheesy turns another year older today, so come by the Iskaulit for lots of cake and punch and games! See you there~

[Indeed, Pinkie pulled out as many stops as she could for this one. There's a vast and varied snack bar (vegetarian of course) featuring fondue and chips and dip and pizzas, a literal rainbow of punchbowls, and as many non-dice party games as you can shake a tail at. And the centerpiece is a pretty dang big chocolate cake with a frosting in the image of Cheese's Party Howitzer, Boneless 2 riding on top like a proud general. (She wanted it to be colossal but flour's been at a premium and the last of it went into this beauty.) Come on in, guys, and give the Fleet's first party pony some love back.]

I'm sorry, I'm not trying to... it's just that it's not as... direct as that for us. Or any species I know in my universe. Historically, people used the idea of destiny and being born for a certain role to hurt others, so it's hard to wrap my mind around. But I can see that it's different, for you.

I know, it's like that everyone else I've ever met. It seems unique to Equestria.

[He doesn't know what that says about Equestria, in all honesty. He gives a shrug. ]

But we really are happy with things like that. Nopony uses it to hurt anypony else. It's just about...finding the one thing you're super good at, and following a life that lets you do that the best. We're pretty content with it.

Once we know what that thing is, anyway.

[Before it? Well, she's seen his colthood. She knows he's got some real skeletons in his closet. ]

[She does, so she doesn't push that line of thought any further.]

Well, that's the important thing, isn't it? That you're happy?

[He smiles, and it's a genuine one. ]

Oh yeah. I'm really happy.

[Which is something, for the longest time, he never thought he could have. ]

[She rests an affectionate hand on his withers.]

Good. I'm glad to hear that.
