A Housewarming Party for a Castle

[sunlightsister]

Celestia's new home was a grand residence indeed: the citadel of Camelot, a place which featured heavily in the myths and legends of Earth. Not that Celestia was familiar with these myths, of course.

Guests were free to wonder around the castle at will, but Celestia had decided that today, the courtyard would be a lovely place for everypony to get together. There were a few tables set up, with the treats Hoshi and Applejack had so generously made, and Rarity's beautiful decorations. And later, Celestia planned to invite her guests to ride on the Ferris wheel that happened to be located just outside the castle.

The crewmembers had suffered a great loss recently, but she hoped that this would bring them some small amount of joy, and the comfort of friendship in this time.

[[ooc: Sorry this is a day late guys, uni ended up being much more hectic yesterday than I expected. Anyways, I've put up a subthread for Celestia greeting visitors and rides on the London Eye. Those that ICly helped out this party can also set up sub-threads for the food tables/games/whatever as well, if you guys want to. (Edit: The sub-thread for Hoshi & Applejack's nibbles is up here!)

But other than that, feel free to start your own threads and tag each other. People can also wonder around and explore the castle - it's the BBC Merlin version of Camelot, but only the citadel itself (as opposed to the whole city).]]

"I'll call you whenever I see somethin' interesting, then. When it sprouts, first apple, first leaves..."

That sure sounded nice. And not necessarily in that order.

"Good. Now I can eat pie without any guilt at all." And to prove the point, he grabbed a piece with a grin.

"Why would you be worryin' in the first place?" Applejack wondered. "It's not there to look fancy, it's there to get eaten."

People were being so strangely reserved about the food. Sure, there was only a little of it, but that's all the more reason to eat what you can! In her mind, anyway.

"Because I've already had a pie all to myself already, and I want to make sure everyone gets a taste. It's worth it." He was making a point of eating slow and savoring, too. "Trust me, there won't be any left no matter what happens."

[appletastic]

"Then I'll just have to bring more 'round when your little magic tree grows," Applejack promised, looking excited by the prospect. "Maybe we'll even have enough for apple cupcakes!"

[morganknight]

"I hope so! I'd like nothing more than to get enough apples for everyone to be able to eat better than slop at least semi-regularly." As nutritious as the stuff might be, man, it just wasn't food.
