Pinkie Pie's clone played a game of hide-and-seek with Apple Bloom. The clone does her best to win, and hides and overhears Twilight send the rest of the clones to the Mirror Pool, from inside a barrel outside the Golden Oak Library.

Seeing that Twilight was trying to send her to the Mirror Pool, the ponies in Ponyville don’t want her around, and that she wasn’t having much fun, the clone chose a new name, went to Manehattan, kept hidden, got a job, and did whatever she could to make sure that nothing and nopony could stop her from having fun.

Contains Death tag for references to sending other Mirror Pool clones back to the Mirror Pool.

Seriously, why did I have to have Pinkie’s appetite but not her metabolism?

Unfortunately... we cannot determine how much you eat and exercise in comparison to the original... we don't have data on either of you.

To clarify Pinkie's question/frustration about that if any other readers had similar comments about the Mirror Pool clone's behavior:

In the story, she doesn't have Pinkie's memories, so what she thought about them are best guesses, and she had limited knowledge of the world. She guessed that Pinkie had an excellent metabolism, because Twilight's journal would have mentioned things such as the original Pinkie Pie eating large amounts of desserts without gaining weight (E.g. eating an enormous cake in one bite).

I didn't want clarification... why... so many whys. Why hide your text behind black lines? Ashamed of what you wrote? Don't want to spoil? Then why comment at all. Why did you comment? Did I not get the joke? I still don't want clarification...

My previous comment contained mild spoilers to a comment I misunderstood the intent of. Black spoilers were originally there to avoid spoiling events in the story for anyone who hasn't read the story, and I agree they were unnecessary. Other parts of the response were removed since that turned out not to be a request for clarification.

Ooh, this looks interesting. Why the Teen rating, by the way? The description implies that the only death stuff is what happens in the show; if it's for the Death warning tag, note you can just set the story to Everyone and keep the Death warning on.

Stories from the perspective of a Pinkie clone are always such fascinating fics.

One of my favourite fimfic stories of all time was a Pinkie Clone story.

Thanks!

Death - Stories with characters who are in the process of dying or feature death as a prominent theme.

I'd consider it as a prominent theme, for being outside the Library and hearing every other one of your kind getting banished, fear of death/mortality, ponies arguing whether the clones are dead (a children's show would use euphemisms such as "gone"/"away" with more room for parents to reassure their children that the character(s) could be okay), discussion of mortality in general, etc.

It's much less of a story for Everyone if it focuses on the perspective of the victim, and I'd rather not have complaints about a tag being missing.
