The Park, Most of Sunday

[fh_thumbprick]

Had the carnival changed? Retreated? No, but perhaps it had filled up even worse over the past twenty-four hours or so.

The look on that mustached man's face certainly exuded a certain amount of triumph as the lights went on again early on Sunday morning. He stabbed the ground with his cane and watched; if experience counted for anything, then there would be yet more pouring into his carnival today.

The feeding was good, here.

That scent of cotton candy rolled over the island once more, and the carnival's music touched what it could not.

It's a new day, Fandom. Come, enjoy it.

"Deal with it," Derek muttered, going in for the kill. The huggy, huggy kill.

"Hey, what! What are you doing?!" Pinkie squeaked. As in let out a little noise when squeezed not unlike a dog's chew toy. She flailed all four hooves and tried to squirm away. "Leggo!"

"Hold still!" Why wasn't this working?

Re: Pony Rides

"Leggo!" Pinkie yelled again. She braced her hooves against him and tried squirming her way out. "Leggo leggo le . . . huh."

Well. She stopped squirming, at least.

"Are you still acting strange?" A beat. "Er. Stranger."

"You're hugging me," Pinkie noted.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand then Derek was getting squeezed back, possibly within an inch of his life. "YAY HUGS!"

Was that your answer?

Re: Pony Rides

[justlurkinghere]

It totally did.

Derek immediately dropped his hold for that. "Great."

Re: Pony Rides

[locointhecoco]

Sorry, Derek, Pinkie was not done hugging yet. She sighed happily, apparently entirely unconcerned with the whole evil-cotton-candy-turned-into-a-kelpie thing. "I love hugs."

"I know." Derek ended up giving her a quick pat on the back.
