Title: Pinkie's Computer 2
Cartoon: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
After six hours straight of secretly putting it back together and plugging it in again, Pinkie's borrowed computer was finally turned on, again.
"I can't tell Rainbow Dash," she said allowed. "We agreed for me to send it back to the princess. I just think that if I look up images about things that aren't mind-scarring, maybe I'll have a better time." She sat down and plugged in the mouse. "Good." She turned on the monitor and waited for it to come on. She connected to the internet and then opened Firefox. "Alrighty, then!" she left the Firefox homepage and opened up Google. It didn't surprise her that they made the Google homepage look different, again. This time, it looked like a brown piano with lots of things to change the loudness and the way it sounded. She got curious and clicked on it. Much to her surprise and pleasure, it made a sound when she clicked one of the keys. She clicked another on of the keys and squealed. Google was so vey fun today! She cranked up the speakers and started making music.
A few minutes later…
Rainbow Dash knocked on her door, and then opened it.
"Hey, Pinkie Pie? I heard loud music and checked to see what you were—" she saw the computer. "Hey! I thought you sent that back a few weeks ago!" the earth pony jumped, having been caught in the midst of her fun. She smiled in a way that showed how awkward the situation was.
"I just wanted to have fun again. I never really sent it back, you know. It's just been in a box until six hours ago…"
"What are you doing, anyway?" Dash walked over to her to look over her shoulder at the screen.
"Playing around on Google!"
"Google?"
"Google. Google is a search engine for creatures called humans to look up information about us and other such things on the computer."
"So…" Rainbow touched the monitor. "This is a computer?"
"Uh-huh! I borrowed it from Princess Celestia and have been re-borrowing it every few weeks for a year, now."
"A year? You had a cool toy and didn't tell us for a year?" the pagasus glared at her.
"Um… Twilight's been helping me install it. It's just that we both found some things we wouldn't want to show other ponies online, and so we kept it between the three of us."
"Now there's four ponies who know, then." She pulled up a chair. "I'm just glad that you're on the computer in a well-lit room, this time! Last time was awful."
"Sure was!"
"So… what do you mean by 'playing on Google' if you're on a search engine?"
"They change the look of it a lot, and today it's a piano. I didn't expect it to make any sounds when I clicked it, but I've been entertained by it for a full ten minutes, now! You c an even record what you do!"
"Cool!" Dash smiled. "Can you play it back for me?"
Pinkie Pie clicked the play button. It was a very catchy song..
"I love it! What song is this?"
"The one Rarity sang while she made our dresses for the Grand Galloping Gala. Art of the Dress."
"Wonder how I forgot it…" they listened to the song and Pinkie turned it down a little so they could hear each other talk a little better. "You said that humans look things up about us? What's a human?"
"A two-legged creature that likes to be happy while watching us on TV."
"TV? They have those?"
"Yep! And better ones than we do, at that. They're more developed in their world."
"Wow… wait, they watch us on TV?"
"Long story. I'm not really supposed to be interacting with them, but I'm pretending to be a human and I'm going around using the username TheRealPinkiePie."
"Wouldn't that be a clue that you're the real Pinkie Pie, though?"
"Not really. It just makes me look like a fan of myself."
"Can I play on Google?"
"Sure!"
Until later on, Dash would never have to know about the bad pony-related things she has found that were mixed in with the good. All that mattered was that they were having fun with Google, making music to entertain themselves for hours on end.
