 When Cherpumple came into the bakery, Candy wasn't sure what to expect. She had never met him before. But she put on a smile and offered him some sweets. Which he took with glee. She had never seen anyone eat that much! She watched, open-mouthed while he gobbled down cake, doughnuts and cupcakes with speed. Eventually it ceased to shock her, and she went outside. It was a lovely day, one that she should be spending outside anyway. She watched the birds spin circles in the air and smiled. Sometimes she thought it would be nice to fly.

And how nice it WAS to fly! Midnight Snack hovered around outside, flapping his wings gently, checking out the bakery's goods in the window. He did not move much as the door open and the other little foal came out, only flitting his eyes down to her briefly. He smiled a friendly greeting smile at her, thinking she was looking up at him, and then traced her gaze to the birds flying up behind him -- whoops! Oh, well, at least he'd been sociable all the same, right?

Candy noticed that one of the birds seemed to be a lot bigger than the other ones. She squinted, and realized that one was not a bird, but a pegasus floating above her head. Lucky! He got to fly with the birds! She waved and called out "Hi there! What's your name?"

And then she did look up at him! Midnight fluttered down as the other phony spoke to him, landing not very far away from her. He smiled his wide, friendly smile. It was always nice to meet another foal, and who knows -- maybe this'd be something nice he could do to fill up an otherwise boring afternoon. "Heya, I'm Midnight Snack," he said. "Nice day out, isn't it? Makes you wanna get a nice treat and sit in the park a while."

The pink filly smiled as the other phony landed and introduced himself. She really liked his mane and the fact that it was two colors. She wished hers looked like that! "My name's Candy Dandy. You can call me CD if you want to." She added, knowing that her name was kinda long. Thought Midnight Snack was just as long as her's. When he mentioned treats, her ears perked up. "I was just inside with all of the treats!" she exclaimed, pointing behind them at the bakery. "My momma owns this place, and I like to help her out with customers and baking." She thought back to the large phony inside eating his way through their stock and grimaced a little. She was going to have to cook a lot of cookies to make up for him!

"CD? Nice to meetcha. You can call me Midnight -- easier than a whole mouthful of name," Midnight Snack said with a laugh. He looked over to the bakery, checking out the window displays again. So many treats and confections, each looking more perfect than the last! How anyone could decide what to get was beyond him. "You get to work in there? That's awesome! I would probably eat way too many treats every day if I worked in a sweet bakery like this one."

Candy nodded proudly, puffing out her chest. She was very proud of her job, and her mama's bakery. "I usually just eat until I am full, then I don't eat too many sweets!""I am going to have my work cut out for me though here soon. There is someone in there that is eating everything we have!" she exclaimed, running up to the window. Past the cakes and bread, Cherpumple could be seen making his way through an order of cookies. "How can he fly when he eats that much?" She giggled, covering a hoof with her mouth.

Midnight grinned as C.D. talked about her bakery, trying to imagine just who could eat their way through the sweets shop. It would have to be someone who had a special talent for eating, or else some foal way too excited about getting to have sweets without any restrictions for the first time. He let out a little laugh: "That sounds awful."
He trotted toward the bakery windows again. "Are they still eating? Which one?"
As he looked inside, though, Midnight fought back the urge to groan. He didn't have to ask which one. He knew exactly who it would be that could eat their weight in cookies. The one whose genetic information he was carrying.

"Yeah they are!" she said eagerly, joining Midnight Snack at the window. They both watched the pegasus eat, and Candy began to laugh. "He has to be the world champion of eating!" the filly exclaimed, bouncing up and down with mirth. She had no idea that the phony inside and the one that she was with outside shared anything in common, let alone genes. All she knew was that he was quite funny with crumbs all over his mouth.

Midnight Snack colored slightly as Candy started to laugh and leaped up and down. Part of him wanted to groan and float away in an embarrassed ball. But another part of him puffed up on the inside with indignation. So what if his genetic-splice father was a champion eater? He was still responsible for Midnight Snack even being here! "That's -- that's actually my dad," Midnight Snack said, with a faint smile. "And yeah, he is a champion eater -- but everyone's gotta have some kind of talent, huh?" He looked fondly back in the window. "I guess it just means the stuff you guys bake must be really good." Well... that may have been an exaggeration. From all accounts, it didn't seem like good ol' dad was all that exacting in his standards.

Her jumping stopped when Midnight said that the hungry phony was his dad. THAT bottomless pit was Midnight Snack's dad? They didn't even look alike! Candy's gaze flitted back and forth between the grown up phony and the small pegasus. "That's.....your dad?" she said incredulously, not truly believing him. "But, you aren't big like he is. And you aren't even the same color!" Genetics were a loss on the pink filly. And apparently, so was tact.

"That's right," said Midnight Snack with a nod. "Same eye color, and I get my yellow streaks from him." He lifted a hoof and indicated the goldenrod strands of hair in his mane. "And, well -- I don't eat nearly as much as he does, but that doesn't matter, anyway. That's my good ol' Pop." ... not that he spent all that much time with Cherpumple, or really knew if the older pegasus actually understood what had gone down in that genetic splicing business, but genes were genes! Regardless of anything else, Cherpumple was his dad, and Midnight Snack was going to stand by him. He gave C.D. a big grin to go with his nod, just to seal the deal.

Candy was confused for a moment. He wasn't embarrassed by his dad's eating habits? He didn't care that phonies might tease him for it? Nope. That smile showed that he was going to stick by his family no matter what, and Candy admired that. She loved her family, even if her dad was the infamous TACO, and her mother was a little bit ditzy. It must be the same thing for Midnight Snack. Loving them no matter how they act. Candy smiled, saying "You're a pretty loyal kid you know that? You wanna be friends?" She didn't have any friends that were colts, Midnight could be the first one!

Midnight Snack saw the filly's expression of confusion for a moment, but the comprehension seemed to dawn on her. She hadn't said what she did out of malice, he thought, and his own response seemed to make sense to her -- there was no reason to be cold or hold a grudge. So instead Midnight Snack gave C.D. a big grin. "Sure thing!" he said, putting out a hoof. "Come on. If there's any cookies left, I'll buy you one." Blue Eyed Melloon I think we can end it here, actually! > U< Thank you for the RP!
