Zecora slowly tilted the long necked bottle of green luminescent fluid. Four small drops fell into the cauldron. She quickly set down the bottle and scooped up some large blue speckled flowers and some white powder and dropped them into the cauldron. It spat sparks and bubbled up to the point of overflowing, but as Zecora began slowly stirring the mixture, the bubbles went down.

"Ah, the mixture is almost right! This will be a very good night…" Zecora said.

SLAM!

"Hiya Zecora! What's up?" Pinkie Pie yelled as she burst through the door.

"Gyaah! Pinkamina! What is your business in this place? Can you not see I need this space?" Zecora said.

"Okie Dokie Lokie! I'll just sit over here!" Pinkie said happily.

"NO! NOT THERE! DON'T—" Zecora's words were cut off as Pinkie Pie sat in the cauldron.

FOOOOM!

A bright green light flashed through Zecora's cottage. As soon as Zecora could see properly, she handed Pinkie Pie a small vial and said, "Oh, Celestia… Here, take this and don't leave your house today… you are under the influence of higher amounts of sugar than you see every day." She explained.

"YAAAHOO! That stuff was good! Do you have any more? Can I have some? Could I share it? Can I swim in it? Look! A squirrel! No, wait, that's a rock." Pinkie Pie rattled off is seconds.

"This will not go well I fear…" Zecora said.

A few hours later…

"Hello everypony!"

"Hiya Twilight! We're just talking about the Rockfest and about Zecora's new experiment and about Rainbow Dash being COMPLETELY wrong about Fluttershy being a tree, because, I said 'She's not a tree, Dashie', but she just wouldn't listen! Then Fluttershy compounded the whole thing by chiming in with 'I'd like to be a tree'!" PinkyPartyPony's message dominated Twarkle9's screen.

"Wow. I've just been completely updated on life itself…" Twarkle9 responded.

"Pinkie is taking me way out of context! That's not what I meant!" Dashitall responded indignantly.

"I still think it would be fun." Shutterfly's addition to the conversation popped up.

"Do we really need to get back into this one, guys?" Twarkle9 added, somewhat exasperatedly.

"Yeah, don't y'all think we've covered that one pretty well?" AppleJackAttack added.

"Hello, Twilight, my child. Is Pinky Pie still acting wild?" ZecoraRemora asked.

"When isn't she?" Typed Dashitall.

"So… Zecora, what's up with your username?" Twarkle9 asked, trying not to offend.

There are just are not a lot of things that rhyme with Zecora, understand, child?" ZecoraRemora

"Sure there are! Zecora, remora, Pandora, menorah… lemme get my Pinktionary!" PinkyPartyPony sent as she leapt out of her seat and bounced off towards her bookshelf.

"That's it. I quit!"

"…..So, was that the best Rockfest ever, or what?" Dashitall began.

"I assumed that there would be more rocks, but I was impressed nonetheless." Shutterfly commented.

When Dashitall saw this pop up on her screen, she couldn't stop herself from retorting, "But you stayed in the back the whole time!"

Shutterfly: It was too loud…" Shutterfly responded

"That's the point! Pinky, back me up here!" Dashitall shot back, calling for support.

"Where did Zecora go? I had so many more rhymes!" PinkyPartyPony's message arrived a little late to the conversation.

"Getting back to the Rockfest, I was impressed with how HoofStomp utilized magic in their performance." Twarkle9 said, attempting to reign in the thread.

"Yeah! Their finale was epic! Playing their signature song, and they all stomp at the end? Aaah! My heart was beating as loud as their stomping!" Dashitall gushed through her keyboard.

"I don't know about y'all, but Filly Power was pretty darn good too." AppleJackAttack messaged.

"I got pictures of Plain Pegasus stage jump and crowd surf, Rainbow Dash." Shutterfly mentioned.

"Awesome! Did anyone else catch that their drummer isn't a Pegasus?"

"Howdy! Were any of you younguns' at the Rockfest? Hoowee, those HoofStomp fellows are as hot as ever!"

"Granny? I didn't know you were there!" AppleJackAttack typed, obviously surprised.

"You youngsters probably couldn't see me. I was in the mosh pit."

"O_O Are you ok then, Granny?"

"Never better!"

"And, on that note, I need to get some sleep…" Twarkle9 sent out.
