Chap.3 Time For research and Pie!
Pinkie rushed her way toward her balloon before skidding to a halt. "Wait I can't just go to Twilights library asking questions she would figure I was up to something and that could ruin everything!" Pinkie exclaimed causing others to stare. With a red tinge now on her cheeks she laughed "sorry about that, umm does anyone know where I can find a library?"
After many random acts some involving a rubber chicken (don't ask) she made her way toward the Canterlot library. She screamed with joy before rushing in making a very load entrance. "Shish mam this is a quite place for people to read," whispered a mare sitting behind the main counter. Pinkie bowed her head in shame realizing she may have been a little too excited and trotted up to the counter.
"Sorry about that mam I get a little excited sometimes," Pinkie smiled waiting for a response seeing she wasn't going to get one she continued "I am looking for books on how to get pony's to fall in love do you have any in here?" The Librarian looked a little surprised by the question not really pinning the hyper pony as a romantic type.
"Well mam we have lots of books that revolve around love and how to court somepony special are you looking for one on how to get a colt or a mare?" Pinkie's jaw hit the floor at the question she had assumed that mare on mare love would be taboo. Seeing her reaction the librarian sighed. "This may sound strange but you are in Canterlot where the mares outnumber the colts three to one so yes it is very excepted here,"
Pinkie blushed yet again at her statement "heh sorry again it's not that I don't think its common it just that this is the first time I have really thought about stuff like this so yes I would like one that would help with Mare on mare relations wow that's a mouth full," She beamed the librarian sighed yet again before pointing towards a section of the library. Pinkie smiled before grabbing the poor pony in a hug screaming "Thank you thank you thank you," before rushing off towards her destination.
The librarian let a small smile dawn her lips before she quickly said "and do it quietly.
Pinkie hoped towards the romance section and smiled with so many books at her disposal there was no way she couldn't figure out a way to get her friends to fall in love.
Pinkie let out a sigh as she slammed her head on the table "This is impossible all these books have different ways to fall in love but none of them really answer my questions" Pinkie sighed before grabbing another book from the shelf sadly it had been hours with no real help towards her goal.
"Thou still in Canterlot element bearer?" Pinkie screamed before launching herself in the air a very load shhhh could be heard somewhere in the library. "Thou is very sorry for scarring thee I didn't mean to frighten you Ms. Pinkie Pie."
Pinkie slowly caught her breath before facing her assailant and gasped "Oh princess Luna its only you I thought you only scared pony's on nightmare night?" Luna only smiled at her reaction before letting out a giggle. Pinkie composing herself spoke "You right I am still her in Canterlot trying to figure out how this whole love thingy works, cause I couldn't go to Twilight's and ask cause then it would give it away and I think I need to treat this like a surprise, and you know how nobody likes to spoil a surprise cause it's super special and," She was cut off by a hove being shoved in her mouth.
Luna sighed she would have to thank Rainbow Dash for telling her about this trick and spoke "We seem to understand what thou is saying, you came here to do research on the subject correct?" Pinkie just nodded still not able to speak Luna smiled before removing her hove " Ohh my silly little pony books won't really answer thy questions you better talking to somepony with experience in these matters."
Pinkie scrunched her face in thought when " Huuhh your right I need to talk to someone who has been around the block once or twice someone who definitely has experience and has been around it all!" Luna smiled happy she wasn't gonna have to drill it into her head maybe all the rumors she had heard about her being hard to get this one to listen where over exaggerated . She then yelped as she was grabbed into a bear like hug. " And your just the pony I should ask you have been around forever and I am sure you have seen many pony's fall in love oh my gosh this is great you can tell me everything this fixes it all I " she was cut off as another hove was put on her mouth.
Luna sighed realizing this may be harder than she thought "We will tell thee what we know but you must promise to not interrupt nod if you understand?" Pinkie nodded seeing this she continued "Now Pinkie I have been away for a while but even back in our time we saw a very common thing that pony's who were completely different from each other tended to fall for each other," Pinkie raised a hove but was ignored as the princess continued "We know this doesn't make sense to thee but thou must understand when to pony's are different from each other they tend to fill the gaps the other pony may have understand?" Pinkie nodded before dawning a puzzled look on her face followed by raising her hove Luna smiled before removing her hove hoping she wouldn't regret it.
Pinkie smiled before speaking "Okay I think I understand what you mean but could you give me a more personal answer like umm what draws you in to another pony?"
If Luna was shocked by the question it didn't show as she spoke "Well Pinkie for me it's sort of simple I myself am loud and open we don't shy away from things and has been known to say things that could hurt others feelings, For my I find myself attracted to those who are gentle and sweet maybe even really shy cause they counter my brashness and it also lets me be there protector where as I don't need protecting"
Pinkie sat back and pounder on the information before a light went of in her head " Just like Fluttershy she would be perfect for you1" Luna thanked her lucky stars that her coat hid her blush very well before nodding. Pinkie jumped up and hugged her with glee "Oh thank you so much Lun I know what I need to do you are great." Before Luna could speak Pinkie was gone in a puff of dust rushing off to her new adventure.
Luna smiled "She is pretty smart when she wants to e I hope she can accomplish her task cause with it will come great change hopefully good change."
Pinkie hummed and skipped her way through town she was so excited about her knew plan for her friends. She had stayed up all night thinking of witch pair of her friends where complete opposites of each other then it hit her like Pound Cake would when he flew into her head. No other pony's where more different then her good friends Rarity and Apple Jack those two couldn't be more different.
She smiled as she reached her destination the Carousel Boutique she figured out of the two of them Rarity we be the most open to talk about romantic interest. As she entered the building she shouted "hey Rarity are you busy I would really like to talk to you?"
Rarity at the moment was caught between two clinents one complaining about a new dress that wasn't exactly like she wanted and the other was just asking stupid questions " Oh dreadfully sorry dear I would love to chat but as you can see I am really busy can it wait?'
Pinkie's smiled faded as she looked down crushed "Ohh its okay Rarity we can talk about falling in love with somepony another time.'
Rarity stopped and stared with her mouth agape "Every pony out of my shop now except you Pinkie this is an emergency." Before the clients could protest they were pushed out the door and had it shut in their face with a sorry where closed sign. Pinkie just stared in awe as Rarity closed all of her curtains and proceeded to grab tea from the kitchen quicker then well her chasing down Rainbow dash.
" Now that they're out of the way tell me about this love interest off yours?" Pinkie didn't know to either smile or flee in terror from the gleam in Rarity's eyes.
