My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic

Oh, Princess Twilight,

everypony at the hospital is so excited for visit today.

I'm never too busy to visit sick foals! I can't believe

a whole class just came down with the Horsey Hives.

On school picture day, too!

Oh! The poor dears really do need cheering up.

We'll bring snacks; I'll read to them and get them gifts.

Food and presents always cheer me up!

We'll see you soon.

OK, if we want to be at the hospital by lunch,

then we have three hours to buy get-well presents,

borrow a book from the schoolhouse

and pick up treats.

It's a lot, but if we stick to the schedule,

I know we can get it all done.

Yeah, knock on wood!

Surprise!

Oh! Oh, my gosh!

How's my favorite niece?

I'm good! I was hoping my favorite aunt

could watch me for a few hours!

I hope you're not too busy!

Actually, we kind of are...

Busy? Psh! Would the Best Aunt Ever be "too busy"

to spend time with this adorable little one?

No!

Flur-ry, I've got a surprise for you!

Just a couple of toys that reminded me of Flurry!

I've done some shopping for Flurry Heart!

You're so sweet. You didn't have to do all that!

I know, but I can't help myself!

Best! Aunt! Ever!

Open this one, Flurry!

Exactly! They're bears! You're one smart cookie!

We'll just put Flurry's things over here, Twiley!

Uh huh, totally!

Mashed peas: her favorite.

And diapers, extra diapers, oh and backup extra diapers.

Mashed peas: her favorite. Wait. Did I say that already?

Uh-huh.

Oh! And this is the most important thing of all!

Her "whammy".

I take it Flurry named it?

Yup. If she gets fussy, just give her the whammy

and she'll calm right down.

You getting all this, Twiley?

Whammy! Got it!

You remember my friend from the royal guard, Spearhead?

Honestly, all of your friends' names are very similar.

Well, he has a pop-up art show at the Ponyville Cafe

and we decided to go at the last minute.

We're not exactly art enthusiasts

but we could really use a night out.

That's what I said. Isn't that what I said?

Either way, are you sure you can watch her?

Uh uh uh!

Have no fear! The Best-Aunt-Ever has everything under control!

Thanks again, Twiley!

OK, let's grab that wharmmy thing and go!

Ooh, you wanna pretend we're the bears?

I suppose we have time for a quick game.

Do we though?

Hey!

All right, rawr! I'm gonna getcha!

Agh!

You should catch her soon cause we've got lots to do!

Horsey-hive covered foals counting on us, remember?

Got it. Rawr, rawr! I'm catching up! Rawr!

RAWWWWWR!

Uh oh. Sorry, bug. Did that scare you?

It's OK! It's just Auntie Twiley!

You know, that was a very advanced spell

for somepony your age.

Looks like you're already taking after your Auntie Twiley!

All right, that was pretty adorable. But now...

I know, Spike. We're leaving.

I just have to feed her real quick.

Is this art... or a mistake?

I have no idea.

But who cares? We're not changing diapers.

Shining Armor! Cadance! How are the new 'rents?!

Give me some hoof!

It is so! Good! To see you dudes! Thanks for coming!

Of course! We're having a great time!

Loving all the art!

Uh, that's a trash can.

So it is. I knew that!

But hey, who's to say it's not art?

Art can be anything that speaks to you.

It changed my world.

This is my latest piece: A Thousand Nights in a Hallway.

Wow, I guess nighttime in a hallway can be pretty dark.

There is none more dark.

Yeah. Totally.

We're just so happy to be here!

Usually we're covered in mashed peas by now.

When they said mashed peas were her favorite...

did they mean her favorite thing to decorate a room with?

Aw, come on, Spike. That wasn't too bad!

Yeah and we're only twenty minutes behind schedule.

Twenty minutes? It's fine. We can totally do this.

OK, we just need to grab some toys and we are out of here!

Rawrr!

Well, I know a game that's even more fun...

and more efficient.

Playing race cart! Ha ha!

Woohoo!

Hey, nice thinking, Twilight!

Best-Aunt-Ever!

Hang on, Flurry. The race cart's taking a pit-stop.

I'm not a detective, but I think we've got a suspect.

Ah!

Well, we'd better get to cleaning.

We've got no time to waste!

Thanks, but they were organized by color.

Yes! We gained back a whole five minutes from running here!

Yeah, but if you add that to the 40 minutes

we were already behind, we're still... 55 minutes behind.

I mean... yay, team?

Mmhmm!

Thanks for helping us out, Cheerilee! Sorry we were late.

Oh, no problem!

But I gotta say, I'm surprised you came to me

for a book. Don't you have a huge collection?

Yes, but... sorry, one second...

I didn't think the foals would be interested

in The Unabridged History of Amulets in Pony Latin.

Yeah. It was good you came to me.

How about the complete collection

of "Ponyville Fables and Stables"

Mm, too long.

"Alien Alicorns vs. Space Pirates"?

Well, the science there is preposterous.

How about Burnferno: Warrior from Within?!

It's about a handsome dragon warrior who slays evildoers

with his breath and his snappy comebacks!

Let's borrow that for you and keep looking. What else?

How about "Gusty the Great"?

Ooh! That was one of my favorites

when I was a filly! We'll take it!

Um... should I go with something more current?

Cheerilee! I am so, so sorry. I didn't even hear her leave.

There! All clean!

Great. Now I'll just write it up again. With my mouth.

This one's called 'A Kitchen Guard's journey'.

Oh...

This reminds me of the time

Flurry got into the chocolate pudding

and we found little chocolate hoofprints all over the carpet.

That took forever to clean up!

But remember how cute her little face looked

when we caught her?

Yeah she was like... uh oh!

Whoa! Art is so evocative.

I wasn't even going for that memory! Score!

Honestly, Twilight, I don't even want to tell you

how late we are.

Should I just cancel our visit to the hospital?

What? Cancel? We can't cancel, Spike!

The sick foals are counting on us!

And the B.A.E. would never throw in the towel like that!

B.A.E.?

Best-Aunt-Ever!

Besides, this errand is going to be different!

How do you figure that?
