Author's Note: New chapter! Yeah! So, I switched the musicians I was listening to half way through this chapter, and it's pretty obvious. It went from a "Jem" tone to a "Mika" tone, haha. Anywho, I read through the other chapters and realized I made Dash sound like a druggie, so I worked on making that not happen as much this chapter. Of course, she's drunkish, but it's still better. So, there we go!
Warnings: Language and such. Drunkennes, and Rarity being really, really weird. Same with Twilight. Yeah.
Pairings: Seems like possibly RarityxApplejack, but no. She was just being weird and drunk. (Is that a spoiler? I don't think it is.)But basically none.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters or anything. Well, I guess I own Eric and Justin, but they don't count as characters since they were just there to fill in small gaps. I don't think they'll be of any significance at all. But they might be. (I never plan out my writing before I write it. Planning makes it less fun XD)
(Strange \ marks because I can't get the dividing lines to work.)

Pinkie watched her friends' debate from the couch. Fluttershy had curled up against one of the pillows and fell asleep.
"No, she's not allowed to go!" Applejack shouted.
"But, come on, we need more resources in this world, and that party could be a chance for her to create some!" Twilight said.
"It's also a chance for her to get raped and killed by a stranger we don't even know!"
"Applejack," Twilight said with a sigh, trying to keep her temper. "Saying 'a stranger we don't even know' is redundant." Her voice cracked on the last word.
"Oh, right, go back to correcting everyone. You are the Princess's most valued pony, isn't that right? Oh, wait, we're not ponies anymore! In this world, your friend's fancy status means nothing, sugar cube."
"Well, speaking of the princess, remember how we met? I was sent to make friends, now I think we should send Pinkie to go make friends. It worked out well for us."
"That was Equestria. We don't even know where in the human world we are! A guy already tried to get Pink, and she didn't even realize it! It could happen again!"
"Not if we're there to watch her!"
"Then that's five more ponies they have a shot at raping and killing! I don't want that to happen!"
"How many times do I have to tell you? We're people now, not ponies!"
"Hey, guys-"
"What, Rainbow Dash?" Applejack asked with a glare.
"Where'd Pinkie go?" As Rainbow Dash said it, Twilight and Applejack looked to the couch, and found it empty.
"And she took Fluttershy," Twilight said with a nod. "Guess this means we have to go get them."
"Party?" Rarity asked from the bathroom, brushing her hair.
"Yes, Rarity. By the way, where were you when they left?" AJ asked Dash.
"Yelling at Rarity for being so concerned about her looks during a time like this."
"Well, I'm sorry, but some of us actually have standards. You know, Dash, I could make you look fabulous if you'd just give up that dyke look you have going…." Rarity said, stepping out of the bathroom.
"Stop saying I look like a lesbian! At least I don't look like a gold digger!"
"This is going to be a long night," Twilight sighed. For the first time in three hours, Applejack agreed with her.
\
Fluttershy tugged on her friend's arm.
"What, Flutter-butter?" Pinkie asked. Fluttershy didn't respond. Instead, she made a point of looking at the door. "Oh, silly waffle, we can't leave yet!"
"Your friend is so quiet. I really think her and Justin are really hitting it off. You know, I worry about how shy he is sometimes," Eric whispered into Pinkie Pie's ear. Justin and Fluttershy were playing Black Jack against each other, and instead of shouting "hit me," the two were using hand gestures when they wanted an extra card.
"Yeah, usually Flutter isn't so social around strangers," Pinkie said, grinning broadly.
"Hey, you know, since they're all taken care of so well, how about I show you the cotton candy machine in my room. I think you'll like it." He winked.
Pinkie's grin got even bigger. "I love cotton candy!"
"How did I ever guess?" Eric said, taking the pink-haired girl's hand and leading her through the crowds of people towards his room.
"Stop right there ya mosquito!" Applejack yelled from in front of his door.
"Oh, AJ, hey, I was just-" Eric started.
"Yeah, I know what you was planning. You were gonna seduce my friend here, and I won't stand for that," she said, punching him in the eye.
"Whoa, go Applejack! Violence is always the answer, kid," Rainbow Dash said, walking up to her holding a red cup.
"No, no, really, I was just going to show her my cotton candy machine!" Eric shouted from the ground.
"Oh, really, sugar cube? That's probably just some freaky sexual innuendo. If you did have a cotton candy machine, then where is it?" AJ asked, swinging the door behind her open. Staring at her from across the room was a cotton candy machine. A look of bewilderment crossed her face. "Whoa, you really do have a cotton candy machine. That's crazy!"
"Yeah, I wasn't trying anything funny, I swear! Well, I was thinking of trying something, but, I mean, not until later! Like, after a few drinks, when everyone was all relaxed."
Rainbow Dash laughed so hard she spit a little bit of her drink up. "Pinkie Pie? Relaxed?" She fell to her knees, slapping the ground and trying to catch her breath. "You're insane, you know that, right?"
"Dashie-Dash has a point. I once tried to be calm, and it caused a turtle to explode! I miss that turtle, he seemed so sweet!"
"Shit, Pink, you blew up a turtle? Why am I not surprised?" Rainbow took another swig of the contents in her cup.
"Rainbow Dash, that had better not be alcohol!" Applejack scolded.
"Calm down, it's not, it's not. Just some coke-cola is all."
"So, Pinkie, is that another of your roommates?" Eric asked.
"Yupsy-wupsy, that's Dashie, but only I can call her that. You can call her Rainbow Dash, or just Rainbow, or just Dash, or Likagishwana. Really anything but Dashie," Pinkie wrapped her arms around Rainbow Dash's neck. "My Dashie," she whispered.
"Get her off me, get the psycho chick off me," Dash mouthed to AJ. Unfortunately, AJ interpreted it as "take that guy away, give us some alone time." This deeply confused her, but, at the same time, she knew Dash to be a strange person, so she followed what she thought her orders were.
"Eric, let's go find those other two roommates, eh? How's 'bout it?"
RD watched them walk away as she was dragged into the room by Pinkie Pie. She started whimpering as Pinkie locked the door.
"We're going to have some fun, Dashie," she said with a grin.
\
"Whoa, look at those two chicks. What's going on there?" Eric asked, pointing to the kitchen.
"Well, those would be our two missing roommates," AJ told him. Rarity looked up and saw Applejack.
"Hey, AJ, darling, get up here and dance with me!" she urged, reaching a hand down to her from atop the table, never losing her beat as she danced.
"I'd rather not, sugar cube," AJ said with a blush.
"Nonsense!" Rarity shouted.
"Nonsense!" the crowd of guys around her repeated, hoisting the blonde up to join her friend.
"No," AJ said, sitting down on the table.
"Come now, love, it'll be fun! Just dance with me! Let loose a little!" Rarity pulled her to her feet, forcing her arms to make dancing motions. After a while AJ gave in, dancing.
"So, you must be the ever famous Twilight," Eric said, approaching the girl on the counter. Twilight sat up, much to the dismay of the college boy taking tequila shots off her.
"You must be Pinkie-winkie's boyfriend," she said, smiling slightly lopsidedly.
"Hey, are you okay? Pinkie said her friends don't drink, but, well, you look kind of, well, sorry to be blunt, but, well, you're completely trashed."
"All I had was a coke, though," she said, swaying. Eric caught her before she fell off the counter.
"Fuck," he muttered. "Someone's spiking my cokes."
"Spike?" Twilight asked. "Where is he? Is he okay? Oh, Spike, I'm so sorry I left you!"
"Yeah, someone's had too much. Fun time's over," Eric said, throwing Twilight over his shoulder and carrying her towards his room. He opened the door, and tossed her onto the bed, pulling the sheets up to her chin.
"Hey, Pinkie, don't drink the coke, okay?" He said.
"Okay dokie tokie," she said, smiling as she made another cotton candy cone. Rainbow giggled next to her.
"These are so awesome! I can't believe I actually thought you were going to kill me!"
"Kill you? What a crazy idea, Dashie! Why would I kill you?"
"Well, Pink, after the whole thing with the guy Discord sent…."
"Oh, I didn't kill him! That was Ramboshnim!"
"Who's Ramb….Ranm….Romp….Shit. That's a hard name. Who is he?"
"He's the rare duckazard that was hiding in the toilet! Duh!"
Rainbow Dash backed away, trembling.
"Pink, are you feeling okay?"
Applejack burst into the room, her nails digging into Rarity's arm. "We're leaving," she said. "And that's that, no ifs-ands-or-buts about it. We're out. Come on, back to our apartment, we have other things to do. Right. Now."
"But, AJ, we're having fun," Pinkie said, looking up from her cotton candy and smiling.
"I think it's best we be getting home, sugar cube."
"Hey, they can stay here if they want. I mean, we have room, and I hear it's crowded down at your place," Eric said, trying to sound as polite as possible without the excitement of having a room full of girls staying the night effect his voice.
"No, we're going home, and you should find whoever's been spiking those drinks, because I need to kick their rear-ends, got it?"
"Home. I want to go home, and make sure Spike's okay. We can't really go home, can we, Jacky?" Twilight mumbled from the bed.
"Uh, no, sugar cube, but we can go back to our temporary home. And don't worry yourself with Spike, I'm sure that little critter's doin' perfectly fine on his own."
**BACK IN PONYVILLE**
Spike huddled in a corner of the library, softly crying as he rocked back and forth, trying to take deep breathes but chocking.
**BACK ON EARTH**
"Why do we have to leave?" Pinkie asked.
"W-well, th-that's not important," Applejack responded as a blush formed on her cheeks.
"Oh, come now, my Appletini," Rarity said as she staggered closer to Applejack. "You know how mama needs her apple a day if she wants to keep Mr. Mean Doctor away."
"No, not again," Applejack said, pushing Rarity away. "I guess alcohol does this to her."
Rainbow was staring at Rarity with wide eyes and a slightly slack jaw. She shook her head and collected herself, before screaming with laughter. "Who's the lesbian now, Rare! That's you! Oh, god, this is great! Someone just walked herself into hypocrisy! Wow, that's a really big word. I love it!"
AJ smiled. "Did you hear what Twi was doing?"
"No, but you'll tell me, right?"
"Of course, sugar cube. I'll only tell you and Pinkie once we get back to the apartment, though, okay? So we need to find Fluttershy, and go home, okay?" AJ picked Twilight up off the bed.
"You know, I could carry her back for you," Eric offered.
"No, you've done enough. Thanks, I think. I still think I don't trust you, though," Applejack said as she adjusted the girl in her arms to carry her piggy-back style.
"Ha, wow, you're strong. Do you work on a farm or something?"
"Yeah, Jacky, are you from a farm?," Twilight repeated.
"Yeah, Twi, you've been there a million times." She started to walk out with her friends when she noticed that Rarity was staying put. "Come on, Rarity, we gotta go."
"No, I do not wish to leave."
"Come on Rare," Rainbow Dash said. "Your Appletini is leaving, don't you think you should follow her?" She smirked.
Rarity ran over to AJ and clutched her arm. "Fuck, Dash, I'm sure there was a better way to get her to come than that."
"Not one funnier than this, though. How's Twi feeling? Pretty heavy, huh? Haha, I love this." She looked over to Pinkie. "Hey, Pink, you've been awful quiet." Pinkie nodded a little. "Okey then. Hey, I'm gonna go look for Flutter. You take the other kids home, okay, AJ?"
"Dash, you have to promise to come back, okay?"
"Promise! See ya!"
Somehow, they all managed to get back to their own apartment without Applejack slapping someone.
"I really need some sleep," she mumbled.
