Rocky tilted his head to the side in quiet amusement, watching Jolly Roger and his soft exclamation, taking the sound as the other being disappointed. "I've heard tale that t'be the best at what you do, you gotta be the best innit. So makes sense yer the shiniest treasure, don't you think, darlin'?" He chuckled, meandering the fine line between losing his character accent and trying to get his point across with his own ways.
"I shoulda dressed as a dragon. Then we'd be quite the pair." There wasn't much that was off limits to the draft, especially with the pirate's silence only acting as an encouragement...

Out of Orbit's eyes widened quite large as she looked at her two companions. They must have had magical mind-reading powers! Or maybe they figured things out from her stack of chips.
Nope.
Clearly they had mind-reading powers! Though she was surprised, the filly wasn't scared.
Slowly, she offered "I...wouldn't mind some cheese..."
Remaining perched upon Totoro, the little filly tucked her chip-stash closer to herself with her hooves, pressing them delicately towards her chest (but careful to not crush them). Now that the chips were safe in her makeshift cradle, Out of Orbit nodded her head and chirped "Okay, I think I am ready!"

When he was certain their observer had wandered off (the less eyes to see how ridiculous and awkward this whole thing was, the better), Jolly Roger turned his attention back to Rocky Road and tried to puzzle through yet more strange words. It was as if this conversation was a trap and Jolly Roger had no idea where to step not to fall into it. It didn’t help that he found the others smile extremely distracting. "No," he grumbled, "it doesn’t." A treasure seeking treasure, such nonsense.
And then missing the point entirely, he griped, "a dragon and a parrot would be make no sense at all."

"A restaurant?" Boss repeated, tilting his head. "How'ddya manage that? Is that hook real?" He was tempted to reach out and touch it but refrained. "What restaurant? Is the food good?" It was weird for him to hear of a foal working, though he thought he knew other foals who helped out their parents sometimes. Maybe this was one of those situations.
Most shocking of all, though, was what he heard come out of Hook's mouth next. His own jaw dropped. "You....you dunnp know what video games are?!" he exclaimed, gaping at the other colt with a mix of disbelief and horror. "Yer pullin' my leg, right?! You seriously dunno? Like...you've never played?!"
"My hook is real. I serve there. It can be." He shifted a bit. He didn't like to talk about where he lived. "Well there is an arcade... Does that count? I'm not sure what you mean by video games though." He took a sip of his drink.
It was a miracle. Happy Endings had somehow convinced Lovely Corpse to attend the party with him. The miracle about it was that she kept letting him escort her when apparently she wasn't having any fun on any of the dates he'd taken her on thus far. At this point the stallion was growing increasingly frustrated and spent hours searching for the perfect costume to match the mare. Not to mention pestering the heck out of her until she told him what she was going as.
All decked out, the stallion entered the party with his companion, taking in the loud thrum of the music. Bodies pressed together as the phony danced around and a few handfuls were scattered around the edges eating snacks. The flutter smirked and ran a hoof through his hair. He was in his element now. No more awkward gawking around at dead animals. He would show Lovely how great he was.

At least someone was still up for the slumber party! "Awwwww it's not just a mare thing!" Cotton echoed the adorable cow before deflating slightly. It seemed the males weren't comfortable and had already decided to push the conversation elsewhere. Smooth Swing had a good point though! They WERE at a party already and there was still plenty left to do and lots of night left to do it!
"Alirght then! I vote for dance!" Cotton beamed, raising a hoof and waggling it around in the air with a whoop. She glanced around for anyone willing to be her partner, letting out a giggle at the cows mention of the hatter dancing with a bunch of fruit on his head. Oh what a sight that would be!
Oh no. How could one Phony be this charming and adorably unaware at the same time? Rocky almost felt bad for monopolizing his time, but the simple truth was the pirate was allowing it. He wouldn't press if Jolly Roger seemed uncomfortable; that blush and his allowance of his continued presence said a lot.
"But you're the finest treasure," he finally decided on saying, not wanting to laugh and poke fun and instead lead the pirate along his thought process instead, "an' you know, dragons have excellent taste in it. Hoardin' and all. Or worse, I coulda been a pirate an' you'da really done me in." Rocky grinned, a touch sheepish, but only just. As thrilling as it was to have the other off kilter, he really wanted them on even ground -- so maybe, just maybe, Jolly Roger wouldn't write him off immediately.

Caramell giggled at her little companions, especially the cutest ballerina as she gently snuggled her chips to her chest ever so daintily. "She is ready oh great confetti, lead the way on our grand excursion through the vast wildes of the party tables!" Carmaell said in her best version of s noble voice. It was far from how Totoro actually talked but she figured that she couldn't just grunt and roar at phonies. Lest she wanted to just scare or confuse everyone here!

Little slow but I think I'll be able to post at least once a day <3
No special phony huh? The mare looked Bubbles over with a grin. "Well, you're certainly quite the catch." Her eyes flicked over to the rest of the group. At least the red stallion was trying to make the slumber party a bit more to her liking. But that didn't mean she was going to pass up her current opportunity to dance with a pretty mare.
Shaking her tail, Error gave a nod towards the dance floor. "I am quite ok with showing everyone else up, seeing as how i'll have such a lovely dance partner." With a wiggle of her hips she slithered between the gaps in the crowd in search of a place with ample space for herself and her dance partner.

Out of Orbit couldn't help but giggle at the voice Totoro used. If she were to guess, it was not "Totoro's" usual speaking voice. It made the filly wonder if she should attempt a different voice as well. Not that Out of Orbit had the volume for such a thing. It made her wonder what sort of voice a "cutest ballerina" would have.
Such contemplation required a snack. Fortunately for the little filly, she had such a thing tucked up against her chest! Leaning in a bit, she snatched up a chip with her teeth by the corner. Nibble, nibble, and then like some sort of chip shark, she gobbled up the treat in one gulp.
Nope, she couldn't think of any particular voice she could use to portray a ballerina.

"I don't think it's a 'mare' thing," Swing quickly assured the ladies. "It certainly sounds like something worth planning between us all eventually. I just thought it might be better to save it for another time since it would be a shame to not to savor what we have here and now."
He beamed at Sprinkles' dilemma and raised his brows in surprise at her comment. "Really? That sounds terribly tricky. I bet they'd need a lot of balance." The white pegasus looked away in the hopes that Macaron would not notice his involuntary snort at imagining him in a fruit hat. "Well...that one colt who seems to know Macaron is dressed as a banana. Maybe you could ask him about dressing up as other kinds of food, Sprinkles."
Cotton's raised hoof and proclaimed vote attracted Swing's attention and he laughed lightly. "Okay then," he said, glad what he thought might have been an awkward suggestion hadn't seemed to be in vain after all. He set down his round shield off to one side before trotting over to join the cheerful yellow mare and bowing politely before her. "Miss Moon...may I have this dance?"

Oh this mare was fun! Fish puns? Count her stars Bubble was blessed. "I know." She couldn't help but agree. Bubble was a catch. A catch of the day, (or night given the theme of the party) in her opinion. "Just keep in mind, the catch of the day is only here for a limited time." Another giggle as she made her way out to the dance floor, tail moving as if she might have been swimming in the air itself.
The music was just that perfect mix of casual and pumping. Enough beat without being overly demanding. The perfect warm up song to get 'grooving' to as they might say.
"I know how you feel. I'll have to keep an eye out for anyphony who might try to snap you up once they see how well we can dance." With that little quip, Bubble spin in the air, skull giving a little clatter as they bobbed in time with the beat. "You come up here often or just for special occasions. Don't think I've seen you out in the lake."
Confetti giggled and puffed out his chest, his camo helmet sitting slightly askew on his head. "This way then, fair maiden and trusty forest guardian! Let's follow our noses!" With a deep, exaggerated sniff, he began to trot along the table, his eyes darting across every surface. He sidestepped the still slightly damp area where the punch bowl used to b, laughing slightly to himself at the memory.
Then, suddenly, the scent hit him. It was so wondrous, so magnificent, so beautiful... it could be nothing other than... "A CHEESE FOUNTAIN!!!" he screeched with such joy and triumph that the entire party must have heard him. Pointing, he looked over his shoulder at his new friends, jumping in place, reduced to nothing more than sounds and yelps of excitement.

The pink hoodies mare's ears and eyes swiveled back and forth, looking for a source of cheese you goodness. She picked up the sounds of nibbling behind her, guessing that her filly friend had decided to dig into her stash of chips. But then!
Low and behold, Confetti Daze bounced in place, whooping and hollering as he pointed towards a most magnificent sight. Like a chocolate fountain but spilling glorious golden waves of gooey delicious cheese. "Jack pot! You've found the mythical cheese mountain, good job Confetti! I sure hope the cutest ballerina saved some chips for dipping." Caramell grinned, turning her hooded head towards the filly before prancing up the fountain, wide eyed. Wonder what Paws would think of this?!
It was true that if Jolly Roger had decided he didn’t want to be talking to Rocky Road, then he absolutely would not be talking to him. It was just a shame he couldn't seem to navigate this conversation as well as he could a ship.
"I am no treasure," Jolly Roger, shuffling his hooves in embarrassment and then noticing the gesture, stopped it immediately. His head lifted, willing himself tall and proud, even if the cowboy was still taller. "Would I? Impersonating a pirate is a fine crime. You’d join me crew by the end of the night or walk the plank."
