004 Bushels ❦ [Video]

[buckyouup]

Hey y'all. I hate to ask this, but I kinda need a favor. A whole bunch a' my friends have showed up lately, an' we're all scattered around Johto. Since Nightmare Ni-- I mean, Halloween, is tomorrow, I'd kinda like to celebrate with all a' them, in person.

...So is there any chance one of you fellas with Fly to go collect 'em for me? I'll repay ya kindly, for sure.

[The hero comes to the rescue! /o/]

Really? That'd be right kind of ya! I've got two friends in Mahogany, one somewhere on the way to Violet, and one just arrived in New Bark Town.

[She taps her chin.] ...But keen an eye out for another one in New Bark Town. She hasn't arrived yet, but if the rest of our group is here, she may be showin' up sometime soon.

Whoa, you'd do that, AJ?

[Man, she wasn't expecting a fast trip to the others!]

I'd spend every penny I have if it meant seein' my friends with my own two eyes. 'Sides, Nightmare Night's special. We should be spendin' it together.

[ALWAYS! \o\]

Got it! I'll have my team collect them ASAP.

[Said "team", consisting of a Staraptor, a Noctowl, a Skarmory and two Pidgeots, gathers behind Crow, ready for action. GOTTA LOVE THEM BIRD KEEPERS.]

So, where are they supposed to bring 'em?

[Always love the bird keepers!]

Ecruteak City, if ya can! [She quickly gathers up pictures of her friends, pointing her camera towards them.] Pinkie Pie an' Fluttershy are in Mahogany. Rainbow Dash is on the way to Violet. An' Rarity an' Twilight Sparkle are in New Bark Town.

[She blinks. In her excitement, she forgot to introduce herself.] Oh, an I'm Applejack. It's a real pleasure to meet ya', sir. I'll be sure to repay you however I can.

Be sure to bring him too! I certainly need to thank your guardian angel, huh?

[Aw, yay, brightens!]

Halloween's coming up? [He kind of forgot all about it in the exicetement of getting to Mahogany.]

[buckyouup.livejournal.com]

Of course, sugarcube. Now get ready to start pickin' out a costume, alright? I'm sure Pinkie Pie'll want to throw a party tomorrow.

Video

[buckyouup.livejournal.com]

Yes, sir! It's tomorrow, in fact.

[you mean we're actually going to celebrate it? DDD:]

[She smiles reassuringly.]

Now don't you worry. I ain't gonna make you do anythin' you don't wanna. But I could sure use a cheerin' section for the pumpkin carvin' contest! Plus, I'm sure designin' a costume would sure help Rarity calm down about becomin' a hue-man.

[rooster-shout.livejournal.com]

OH BOY I DON'T HAVE A COSTUME! [No costume means no candy, nevermind what he's wearing right now.]

[video]

[darkenedgales]

Ecruteak, huh? Funny, I'm staying here too! [He grins as he recognizes one of the pictured figures.] Hey, that's pony girl, isn't it? [... Yeah, probably not realizing that could apply to like. ALL OF THEM.]

Nice to meetcha, Applejack! The name's Crow Hogan. And don't worry 'bout that; you said you wanna celebrate with your friends, right? Well, I guess I can make this one free of charge! [Bonds of friendship are priceless, after all.]

...You could always go as a chicken?

[video]

[buckyouup.livejournal.com]

They're all ponies! I am too, in fact! But I can't just ask you to do this for nothin'! Pinkie's pokey-mon's been learnin' how to bake. If anythin', let me whip you up some sweets to celebrate~.

[She still looks a little unsure, but she can't refuse to help her friends.]

Then after that, we can all pile into my room at the Inn and we'll have ourselves an old-fashioned sleepover!

[Operation Reassure Fluttershy is go!]

[rooster-shout.livejournal.com]

...No that would be silly. I have to think of something different.

Video

[buckyouup.livejournal.com]

You could always let Rarity figure somethin' out for ya. If anypony knows outfits, it's her.

video

[3-butterflies.livejournal.com]

[Success!]

video

[buckyouup.livejournal.com]

[She chuckles awkwardly.]

Yeah. Me too. Last time we tried, the outside kinda came in, too.

[rooster-shout.livejournal.com]

If I ask her you'd think she'd do that for me?
