DM: Which means it's now Pinkie's turn. Are you... still messing with that one changeling?
Pinkie Pie: Yepperoni! Pinkie has never seen this before! She's fascinated!

Pinkie Pie: Heeheehee! Betcha can't do me! C'mon, turn into me, turn into me!

Rainbow Dash: Found the ex-goth.
Note: Guest comic submissions are now open! Guidelines here. Current deadline: 4/1/21.
