crossover_chickI'm gonna give your fic its own short entry. :D I hope you enjoy!
“NOOOOOO!”
Twilight’s head jerked up from her volume Pegasi and Flight: An Illuminated Guide. Before she could actually go and investigate the scream, however, Pinkie Pie was already in her face, blue eyes wide with horror. “There’s not enough light, Twilight! Not enough light! Homes are going dark and ponies are revolting and Ponyville is dooooooomed!”
For just a moment, Twilight came close to panic. Then rationality and memory set in, and she frowned. “Pinkie, are you talking about the real Ponyville or that simulated game one I made you?”
Pinkie at least had the decency to look embarrassed about nearly causing the new Princess to stampede through the streets yelling for help. “The sim one. The candle-making factory’s not producing near enough!”
“There’s an upgrade, Pinkie. Just look in the volume on upgrading utilities. There should be a bigger, more efficient one for about 2,000 simulated bits.”
“Oh! Okay then!” Pinkie said, all bright smiles again. “Thanks Twilight!” She bounced off, singing to herself about “happy little ponies making candles today.”
Twilight shook her head with a laugh. “Oh Pinkie. . .I don’t know if making that game for you was the best or worst idea I ever had.”
Inspired by our mutual fondness for My Little Pony and our last conversation, where you were complaining about the power company not providing near enough light for your citizens in your Sim City Hill Valley. :P I thought it would be funny to have Pinkie Pie freaking out over the Ponyville equivalent. I imagine her version is played a lot more like a solo tabletop game of sorts with magical model-making an the like.
For the rest of you, I should have a different story update later! And more from DragonVale, because that's what I do now.

Sadly my Sim Hill Valley is still in danger of running out of power! I need to get some better tech and quick!
