"Whoa, chill out!" Thunder Bird laughed at Catwalk. "Is this your first time in charge of anything?" She shook her head, though she was smiling. Without another word, she took it upon herself to figure out how to fill the balloons and tie them off. All of these things were difficult without any magic... or thumbs. "I think the real charity at this point," she said the room at large,"would be to show me how exactly I'm supposed to do this."

" My efforts are put into success. You want someone to hoof-hold, you're barking up the wrong tree." The words were probably a bit more flippant than they should have been, aimed at Dragonfly. Besides, 'freak show' was only negative if you took it that way. Honestly, it said a lot more about the other than herself. Honestly. She knew she was a delight. Sugar coating was best for bakers, not a Phony of her caliber. Her eyes slid sharply to Thunder Bird. " No." She trot over to the food area, using her nose and a heft of her withers to get it up and stable. The second question from the balloon-Phony made her sigh sharply. " Blow in it if there's no canister. And if there is, ask Birdy over there." Her tail flicked towards Shrill X. She worked in fashion, not...obnoxious and loud and gaudy things. Ugh. Balloons. Truly a sour spot in the history of amusement parks. That one Phony though, that...brightly glitter-filled mer-thing was dazzling in a way that gave her an idea for some high end chew toys. Going off about videoing and looking good -- now that was a girl after her own heart. She was spared only a vaguely approving glance before Catwalk continued her work, getting one of the legs unfolded for the table. Scaramouche Fandango YES. PLEASE. NEED ANY ELEMENTS? ;D Syrcaid Q//v//Q I LOVE YOUR FACE.

Velvet's eyes widen as she saw, not one....but TWO merphonies gathered in. She hadn't met any merphonies her aged before. But... She stared at the sassy star merphony who talked backed Shrill X and her gaze turned to the other one who looked at the fog machine with a mischievous glint in his eyes. This cannot be good. Velvet heard the black merphony what this gathering is for and she slid over, blocking the fog machine. "Uh...It's for Charity! It's to help those who are less fortunate for us. Be it other phonies who are not doing so well to helping and caring for pets." She said with a smile as she looked at him then quickly looked at the other merphony, before glancing back.

Dragonfly scowled and glared at the earth filly, staring into those glossy dark eyes. "If you think that common decency and hoof-holding's the same thing, you got a lot to learn about leadership. And courtesy. An attitude like that's just... tacky." She used a glowing tendril of magic to lift her dustpan, tipping it into the garbage before setting it and the broom down. "I'll help you," she said to the orange pegasus, giving her a sweet smile. "I can blow them up for you if you want- I can at least tie them off," she suggested while sparking her horn, the pale gold glimmer twinkling against her dark fur. "Since you're probably better at flying than me- I mean, you study it and all- you can get them hung up and arranged. I don't know if there's an actual helium canister- and the adult who's... ostensibly in charge? She seems pretty distracted. Might be better to just blow them up the normal way and then use 'em from there." Chrystali i DO need elements- kindness and laughter! how about you?

Like Frankenstein and his monsters, Shrill X watched her creation rise and begin to terrorize the villagers with a smug little smile. Catwalk was a delight, she’d hardly needed any prompting at all to become the perfect little dictator. Dragonfly’s direct question had briefly worried Shrill X, some unconvincing version of ‘probably hungry animals maybe?’ about to slip out before Catwalk straight up murdered the Alicorn. “I can see you’re working marvellously together already,” Shrill X spoke chipperly over the top of the chattering kids, not really caring if they listened. Catwalk getting them started conveniently gave her the chance to focus on the obstinate little Mer. It was, she had to admit, highly amusing, but she made a show of frowning as she crossed her arms over her chest and loomed over Cosmic. “Look, kid, I’m all for artistic expression but charity and generosity isn’t about appealing to your two followers. You don’t get to make deals. Keep it off, or you can go film the wall outside.”She stared back at the Mer Babby, just as obstinate and not about to take the risk of having her naptime filmed.

"Hey, thanks!" Thunder Bird said to Dragonfly. "I guess the first thing to do is blow them up with our own hot air. Do you think Miss Bossy Hooves has enough to spare?" Her eyes glanced towards Catwalk, nodding her way. "I don't know about you, but I'm beginning to smell shenanigans," Thunder Bird said, "I don't know what's gonna happen after we get this all set up. My curiosity is going nuts right now." "What's everyone's name!??" she called into the general public.

" Hey Birdy," Catwalk spoke up crisp and dry before Dragonfly was even done trying to insult her. " Someone's gunning for a Merit Badge." Misguided righteousness, personal attacks, catty attitudes -- all large reasons she preferred animals over Phonies. The dark-eyed filly wasn't about to be talked out of her methodology just because someone's tail was in a knot over her choice of words. It's not like they'd ever see each other outside of today anyhow, and the likelihood of her even remembering anyone else was slim at best. The table was set upright after a little bit of a struggle, in which she promptly began to yank out the table cloth to set up. " Catwalk," she replied to the loud question with the cloth between her teeth, not bothering to ask in return. They'd remember her, and that was all that mattered. She liked to imagine they'd see her name in lights one day and recall the day they were so lucky to have her direction. With a flick of her head, the table cloth billowed out and over the table. Content, she set about trotting between the corners, adjusting them just so. Scaramouche Fandango Everything but Loyalty and Generosity, now XD Ruriska Shrill you awful influence I love you

So what if I am? Dragonfly wanted to shout. The nerve of that spoiled little so-and-so! What gave her the right to treat others as inferior? She hadn't even gotten to know them before acting like she was the high queen of phonyland. Perhaps cat was the wrong animal to have named her after- but then Dragonfly stopped her train of thought there, because it was decidedly uncharitable to get caught up in what would just be mental name calling. Instead, the alicorn made a pointed effort to ignore her- they were here for charity, not a fight, which was what she would have loved to start. She knew that between her training and her tenacity, she could grind that prissy little ninny into the dirt. But as much as the other filly got under her skin, there were others here with good intentions. Best to just forget about her and move on. If she was like other bullies, she probably thrived on attention. Grinding her teeth, she tried to smile at the pegasus. "I think if we asked her to help, she'd probably just huff about how the air in her lungs was too important to be used on balloons. Maybe one of the others might be interested, whoever they are. Which- huh, I should say who I am, too." She reared up on her hind legs to call out. "I'm Dragonfly!" she hollered, though not so loud as the orange filly had. She held out a hoof to her partner for a shake. "It's nice to meet you!" Chrystali do you use discord or skype or want to take plotting plans to PMs?

From one silly question to another pleased to answer his own, Hoax narrowed his eyes trying to judge just how naive one bab was from the other. "How I hover about on land? Well it's my special super ability, you know magical skills enhensnces by these mystic bracelets." Hoax showed the hover bracelets as he lied through his teeth. The bracelets were standard park issue for the mers that wanted them. Hopefully the other met in the crowd wasn't about to give him away. To the other bab, "charity huh? So,what if like I need some cake? Can I just take it? I don't have cake, you can help me get some then right? In the name of charity?" Hoax's eyes drifted back to the fog machine, "think it'd be charitable to hand the fog machine from the ceiling so it rains down mist? Or would that be bad for you getting me cake?" Bossy mer teased, wondering if the bright pink phony might actually get him cake.

Cossi felt like the older pony was saying exactly what she knew would be said. She wasn't afraid of her but had no time to pick a fight with her. She needed awesome video clips, and fast. crossing her arms followed by an angry grumpy face, the merbab laid down on her back on her hoverboard and slowly floated away from under Shrill. "You win this time, only because i don't have much time left to film..er help out and do some charity things." Turning her head slightly, she made sure she was floating in the direction the other mer and red earthling phony were standing. Looking back at Shrill, she rolled her eyes. Filming in front of a wall is so boring!" Only losers would do that." Cossi drifted further away from the adult and towards the other babs. Unfortunately, by the time she got there she missed most of it except for the raining mist and getting cake part. "Who's nice enough to hand out cake? Cake sounds delicious," she jumped into the convo, rubbing her belly, "I'm hungry now."Looking up at the ceiling and back to the fog machine, she started to giggle. "We should put it up there when those guys are not looking," she told the other mer and earth bab while pointing a hoof at the adult phony and the other group of already helping out babs. "This charity thing doesn't seem legit to me, what do you two think?"From between the dark one and the white one, the merbab noticed an orange flying one shout out to them from the crowd of three. Looking directly at her, in the middle of pointing her hoof, she shouted back, now happily waving as her leg sparkled on "Hi! I'm Cossi! What's your name? And theirs?" She also noticed the balloons and kind of wanna go over there and pop them.

"If she's 'Birdy', I get to call you 'Catty'," Thunder Bird declared to Dragonfly. "I'm Thunder Bird and I'm glad at least some of us want to play nice." "I suspect mers would have to be innately magical to some degree," she mused to Hoax. "I mean, otherwise your lungs would collapse in on themselves from gravity. Your skin doesn't dry out, either?" "Hi, Cossi! I'm Thunder Bird, I build flying machines. Do you fly with bracelets, too? And I know that look, my parakeets make that same face, pop those balloons and I'll make you replace them!" Chrystali Catwalk reminds me of Ethel Harrow from the Worst Witch series. XD!! zippedsiren Thunder Bird thinks Hoax is a dolphin FrostyPeaches Thunder Bird's dad is Flits N Giggles

Velvet looked at the other merpony joined them, the other one who was arguing with Shrill X. "I dont know for sure, but there were a bunch of flyers and my Mommy encourage me to come. If there isnt any charity going on as as result, she'll have some words with Ms. Shrill X." Velvet then turned to the one who was, she felt, trying to provoke her. She gave him a look that said she wasn't having any of that. "And boy, I can bake you a cake if you wanted. So all you need to do is ask politely and I can use my Mama's kitchen to bake you a delicious cake. Besides, that isnt the point of charity. It is doing something nice when you know the other phony doesnt have anything and didnt ask for anything. In return, you dont expect anything back." She nodded at him, thinking she was close to the definition. Though she does have kindness and generosity confused a lot. She hopes by attending this, she will have a better understanding.

" Sure," was all she said to Thunder Bird, not even sure if she meant Catwalk herself but not all that invested in caring. She set about carefully folding the napkins into origami cats, as well as setting what dishware she could find in an easy place. The rest of the food could go up when it was ready. She even managed to find a few flowers to adorn the table and, satisfied, she looked over her work and nodded to herself. That was a job well done, especially for a Phony that had no magic to speak of. Trotting towards Shrill X, she glanced over to Thunder Bird and Dragonfly. " If you're done gossiping about how awful I am, maybe you can actually be productive. Seeing as I've already helped out and you haven't blown a single balloon." They could say all they wanted, but Catwalk produced results, and damn good ones, too. Even in the face of clear adversity. But, she was quite done, in more ways than one. Stopping in front of Shrill X, she looked up at her calmly. " I did my part. I don't care what the 'charity' is for, or who," there was what could have been the barest flicker of a smile, but it was gone before it manifested, " but remember who actually helped you out, Birdy. The rest, I'm afraid, is on your hooves." 'The rest' being the babbens in various states of doing nothing, but she was sure the cool-haired chick knew that. Catwalk wasn't sure if she'd missed this one's name, but the other didn't seem offended by her nickname and they were on the same page for getting things done with the nitty gritty details left unsaid. She waited to see if anything else would be said by the mare, content with her efforts for the day. Ruriska i love you and Shrill tysm for this XD
