Shiny things. Sparkly things. I love them all.

Not just because they’re shiny and sparkly, but because they’re tasty, too. I’ll always jump at a chance to go where I can eat them.

So when Discord asked me to be his...what is it, plus one? to the Grand Galloping Gala--whatever the flupper that means--I of course said yes. Because even though I had never been, I’ve heard about it being held at a castle. And as everyone knows, castles = shiny, sparkly things.

I made sure to dress nice. After all, can’t go and eat out looking like shplubber.

Discord left me outside. I didn’t mind. Lots of pretty things outside. Including that pony.

She wasn’t too happy when I tried to eat her. But it’s not my fault; I thought she was a shiny thing.

I forgot how good regular food was.

Discord locked me in a closet then. I was going to offer him some of my food, but I guess he was too busy. Something about a “Fluttershy,” whatever that was.

Turns out that closet wasn’t a closet.

Who locks up valuables in an exposed area?

Doesn’t matter, because I was in heaven.

After eating everything in there, I oozed out of the room, which caused a big fuss. I just wanted to eat! What’s the big deal? They even tried shooting me with their horns! Don’t ponies know anything about Smoozes?

Luckily, that one pony sang, and that calmed me down. I can’t tell ponies apart, but I figured this one was why Discord was so upset. He’s always been so uptight. I don’t know what I’m going to do with him.

Everything cleared up afterwards, but I was still hungry. I decided to search the castle. I encountered what I thought were a few guards. Were.


I could feel something kicking around, but I ignored it. I’ve found that sometimes my food doesn’t always agree with me.

The carpet began sticking to me, but I didn’t mind; I just kept flowing and ate it on the go.

I had no clue where I was going. I think it might have been up, because all of a sudden, the ground became inclined and bumpy. A couple ponies were coming down. Their clothes tasted stale, so maybe they were diplomats.

I finally made it up to the very top, where there was a larger pony. She told me to stop and release the ponies I’d eaten. I just faced her direction, confused.

She tried to use her magic. It didn’t work. Silly ponies.

Then that Celestia pony arrived. She told me to stop or she’d call the guards. Guess she didn’t realize I ate them all.

I didn’t mean to. They were just in my way. But I didn’t regret it.

Just like I didn’t regret slimeing the two and continuing on my journey for much more delicious, kicking food.
