Seventeenth Party

[elementoflol]

[Pinkie had received a special gift from the castle at Christmas - unfortunately, said gift had spent most of the last month under her bed, being too shy to come into the castle populace at large.

In order to try and remedy this and show Gummy that there was no need for fear, Pinkie had (logically...) decided to dress herself in an alligator costume as encouragement. Anyone walking through the lobby today would see the peculiar sight of a small pink pony dressed in a green costume, with a small (and slightly dopey looking) baby alligator stood by her side.]

See, Gummy? The lobby is a super fun place for alligators to alligate!

[Allen, your leg is getting HUGGED now]

Thank you so much for saving her, she's a really important pony and we need her to keep the laughter going.

[No. Really]

When can we see her? I know the other ponies will be real worried about her.

[save_the_souls]

[AWWW, SO CUTE. He'll reach down and pat his head very lightly]

It's no trouble, I'm glad we were able to help.

[You know, help her be saved by House's DUMBASS MOVE; but he'll keep that in his head]

She needs rest for right now, but I'm sure she'll be happy to see you in the morning.

[huffythedragon]

[Yes, never tell Spike this or House will be hounded for the rest of his days]

Okay, I'll let everypony know and thanks again! You guys are real heroes.

[save_the_souls]

[Oh who said he's letting off House easy?]

We're just doing our jobs, really.

But before you go, there's something I wish to say. [He pulls out a prescription bottle of pills out from his pocket] Do you know what these are?

[atrophied]

[Don't think House isn't listening in. He's not above clocking you with the door "accidentally."]

[huffythedragon]

[Spike leans up to look at them, before shaking his head]

Nuh uh. Is it some kind of human medicine?

[save_the_souls]

Mm, that's right.

They're pills that are meant to help people when they're ill, but they are very strong so you never want to take more than what's directed to you by a doctor and you certainly don't want to take medicine that is meant for someone else.

Your friend didn't know this and she choose to eat an entire bottle of strong painkillers. She got off very lucky, but if it happens again there's no telling if that luck will hit twice.

So it's very important that she or yourself don't do this again. Do you understand?

[huffythedragon]

But...the old guys said they were vitamins. Why would he lie? I mean, he looks like he knows what he's talking about...

[A scoff] Trust me, I'm not stupid. I don't take anything that's not naturally in the wild.

[save_the_souls]

[Because he's an arse...]

Probably because we were in the middle of an emergency and vitamins seemed easier to explain. [he shrugs at the lie. The last thing we need is the kid convinced the doctors are out to kill them]

Good. Then can I trust you to make sure your friends are more careful too? It's a very important task.

[atrophied]

[Right around this time, the door suddenly swings open. If you were behind it, Allen, House is not sorry. He's managed to wheel the bed with Pinkie Pie on it toward the door.]

Walker!

[huffythedragon]

There's kind of a big difference between them...

But I'll make sure we're all safe. Not everypony eats everything like Pinkie does.

[OH SNAP, WHAT'S GOING ON]

Is everything okay? Has something happened to her?

[save_the_souls]

[Sorry he's busy getting hit by the door and falling forward]

AH!

[atrophied]

[Frowning at that undignified squawk.]

Who said you could lie down on the job? Get her into recovery. She can't stay in here.

[And to Spike:]

She's fine. She'll spend a few hours in recovery before being moved into the main room. Once there, you can stay with her until she's released.

[huffythedragon]

That's good.

[Looking up at him with BIG SAD DRAGON EYES] So it was an honest mistake right? With the tablets she took?

[save_the_souls]

[He makes an annoyed sound as he gets up]

You didn't have to hit me with the door...!

[And you can cover your own ass with the second part House B\ ]

[atrophied]

Yes. [What? You expected him to have qualms lying to an innocent child?] And you didn't have to be standing behind it. Who does that?

[huffythedragon]

Well, it's okay now that she's healing. [House you are getting a leg hug. Yes. Yes you are] Thank you for saving her!!

[save_the_souls]

[He meanwhile is just giving House a death glare as he's getting up to head into the clinic area to wheel Pinkie to recovery B| SAVE HER? HE CAUSED THE PROBLEM]

[atrophied]

[Ignoring Allen! Your opinion is forever unimportant. Also HOW DOES I DETACH BITTY DRAGON?]

Yeah. Okay. If you really want to thank me, make sure I never have to see you or your friends in here again.

[huffythedragon]

[Answer: you don't]

I'mm make absolutely sure everypony knows not to take those tablets, or any other tablets without your say so.

[atrophied]

Good. Now get off my leg.

[He pokes Spike with his cane.]
