This is Nightmare Night

Who: Everypony!
What: Welcome to Nightmare Night Extravaganza!
Where: Ponyville. All of it.
When: Forward-dated to Nightmare Night
Warnings: None

It doesn't matter who you are. It doesn't matter where you lay your hat. You got an invitation.

You're Invited to PINKIE PIE'S WELCOME TO PONYVILLE NIGHTMARE NIGHT EXPLOSION OF AWESOME PARTYRIFFICNESS!!!


Sometime when no one was paying attention, all of Ponyville became absolutely draped in holiday decorations. The empty town was practically begging to be filled with something, Pinkie thought, so it only made sense that she should be the pony to do it. She's stuck to the traditional Nightmare Night color scheme, though native ponies might notice that the usual Nightmare Moon silhouettes are absent. She had, after all, agreed to keep that a secret.

Town Square is where all the refreshments are, as well as the usual Nightmare Night games: spider toss, pumpkin chunkin', apple bobbing, and even a little stage with a sign reading Costume Contest 7:00. There's also a particular bowl of spiders set aside, labeled Princess Luna's Spiders. Huh.

Pinkie herself can be found wandering about in what appears to be a paper-mache elephant's head, a costume which makes much more sense when she's perched atop her similarly-painted Meowjesty. Toothy, meanwhile, is painted to look like a meerkat. Hopefully everyone else knew to get costumes as well - humans have Nightmare Night, right?

Spiders are about the exact opposite of aerodynamic. Not that Nepeta takes any sort offense at being bombarded by by fake spiders. She's had worse things coming at her, and even if she hadn't, she's not the sort to be terribly bothered by most things.

"It's alright. It hasn't hurt anybody. They're only spiders, after all."

That said, she bends down to pick up the spider, and if she's using her mouth to do it well, that probably has a lot to do with the fact that she was raised by a cat, even if hooves being awkward to hold things with doesn't hurt either.

Yeah, for all his vaunted Spartan skills, Emile hasn't figured out how ponies pick things up without fingers either. He motions for his Spirit to move to the side.

"You want to try?"

Nepeta is pretty certain there's some trick to it, but what that actually is, she's not too certain. Besides, she can manage well enough as things are, even if it's not technically ideal.

"I supawse I can try," she manages to mumble around the spider.

Her aim, unfortunately, is not really all that great. It's her first time not using her hand to throw something, and while she gets the spider in the general area of where it out to go, she's not going to be winning any prizes either.

Spikes the Hebby Repp squaks and rushes over to pick it up. Like ponies he doesn't have any hands, so he picks it up with his mouth to hand it back to Nepeta. Luckily he doesn't drool.

"Ain't as easy as it should be. Needs more weight to get any kind of accuracy."

Emile grumbles a little, more used to projectiles shaped like, well, projectiles. But he's determined to see someone actually win at this, even if it's not him.

"Not bad. Maybe a little more force, higher arc."
