Pinkie plot preplay

At some point, this plot will get slightly less alliterative. . . .

Nahhhhh.

Derek was already regretting his decision to cut though the park to get home. Already regretting it.

"Stop making the pony cry," he ground out, unable to keep from--ugh--doing the right thing.

//Hey, don't look at me,// Jono said, holding up his hands. //I'm trying to keep the peace, here.//

A beat.

//She's pretty convinced she's managed to bring about some manner of ponypocalypse, I think.//

Drac had his hat firmly back on his head. He had no choice, really. The alternative was, well, Jonothon. Except dead.

"I assure you, I have no wish to make Ms Pie cry. But."

And he pointed to his hat.

Derek still crossed is arms at that. Because you don't talk shit about Pinkie Pie. Not while he was still grudgingly alive.

"That's a very pretty hat," Pinkie said. "Did one of the other Pinkies give it to you?"

Drac was glaring right back at you, Derek. There were FLAMINGOS on his head. Flamingos.

...Wait.

"'Other Pinkies'?!"

//Did you somehow miss that they're all over the place today, mate?// Jono gave Drac a bit of a side-eye, and then shrugged his shoulders. //This is Fandom. If Pinkie's so upset and we're a touch overrun, I imagine it's not something that can't be fixed.//

Jono was really hoping this was something that could be fixed.

Drac sighed and then stood straight again. "I assumed it was all Ms Pie's doing. She is a very capable young pony, after all."

Derek rolled his eyes because he was a big drama queen. But was also patting Pinkie's shoulder consolingly. Mostly out of self defense.

Those tears were terrifying.

"How about doing something useful like help with a solution."

Pinkie's tears abruptly stopped, as though someone had flipped a shut off valve in her head. She sniffled. "Y-you think we can fix it?"

She'd been pretty stuck on "I have destroyed everything." The idea of a solution hadn't even been a glimmer in those freakishly large eyes.

//Here,// Jono offered, patting Pinkie's other shoulder, //what if we let her show us what she did to start all this mess, and then see if we can fix it from there?//

Reverse-engineer the crazy!

"A wonderful idea." Drac nodded at Pinkie as he handed her a handkerchief. "I'm sure between the four of us we can fix it with no difficulty. Do you happen to remember how it all began?"

Pinkie tipped her head thoughtfully and was quiet a few moments.

"Weeeeeeeeell . . . it probably started when I went to the library and the Special Collections opened up and I went in and found a horseshoe book that had a cloning spell in it that I used to make two of me so I could have fun in multiple locations at the same time."

You know, probably.

"So I guess we could go there and see if we can find the book again. It might have a reversal spell. That's what Twilight would do. She's the cleverest pony I know."

Admittedly, this was not actually that hard to do.
