Title: RAOPK - in person!
Post by: ClawHeart on October 14, 2012, 01:44:15 PM
Today was a really good day for me.  I was able to meet up with a good friend who was in town for the ComicCon, and spent a couple hours hanging out with her.  Also bought some ponies off her, which I'll be adding to my collection and sending out. 

But after I walked her back to the Con, I head to the TRU in Times Square.  I go there to get a few blind bags since they still had some ser1 bags.  As I'm checking for the ones I need (yeah I know the codes), this one girl who's maybe 14 or 15 starts feeling through the bags obviously looking for a specific pony.  I overhear she is a huge Pinkie Pie fan as she talks to her family.

So I tell her about the codes and help her look through them.  There is one #22: the special edition Pinkie Pie.  She looked a little unsure of it, so I bought it for her myself.  After I paid for it I opened it up and dumped it into her hand.

I was right.

She and her family were so thankful and so amazed that I would do something like that for someone I had never even met before.  But the smile and wonder on her face?  That was exactly why I did it.

:) Such kindness. Good for you ~
I have a theory if you do something sweet for someone, maybe one day they'll remember that sweetness and do something for someone else too.
