1) Probably Snips. That colt is unpredictable. Although, I could see Scoots backing up her bark with some bite.

2) I don’t have any meat.

3) Sure. But not anymore.

4) I’ve never heard of that.

5) Well, I’m glad my interests can amuse you. I play on Ponytector. I guess for you that would be Protector. And actually, I recently made myself in the game!

Heartstrings! Street Justice/Ninjitsu Stalker! I’m… I’m not really a Ninja, I just wanted a secondary that had fear protection and I already have a character with Willpower.

Started off as a Villain so I can unlock Demonic/Eye of the Magus early off. Then I’ll switch to Hero. Maybe Vigilante.

But yeah, if anypony wants to play with me, my global is @Demon Shell! I don’t play all the time, though.

6) Because you said unpleased instead of displeased.

7) I’m afraid the name doesn’t ring a bell. Sorry.

8) You’re probably looking at this, and expecting us ponies to have the same setup. Keep in mind our entire legs are, at scale, about three times the circumference of a horse in your world. Our sole doesn’t take up that much of our hoof and the frog is much larger. That’s what you’d be gripping the door with.

Are you done questioning me about my own anatomy yet?

1) Then make up some new headcannon, or give up.

2) Would you believe this isn’t the first time I’ve been asked this? Isn’t even the third.

3) I haven’t the foggiest how you managed to do that.

4) I don’t favor any team. I just watch for the spectacle.

5) Because life isn’t that simple, Star.

How many times am I going to be asked this? I’m not trying to be rude but it really isn’t anypony’s business.

I’ve heard things are going better for you, Star.

1) Sorry, Boscov. I already had dinner.

I mean, I’ll still come over. I’ve just already ate.

2) Well, that’s an answer. Certainly more than I expected. Thanks!

3) No. Because I don’t have a human obsession. The most I think about humans as a species is when I get messages that say, “You’re obsessed with humans, right? I bet you want to touch my hand!” Or some stupid crap.

Edit: WOOPS! I read that wrong! Sorry Boscov! I’d be delighted to come over for dinner tomorrow!

image

1) [Sip]

Delightful, I look forward to it.

2) Your memory has a lot more cohesion than I do with most of my dreams.

3) Pedophiles are mentally disturbed. Sociopaths are mentally ill. No, they aren’t evil. Something’s just wrong with how their brain functions.

Edit: Why is everypony so interested in my personal theology?

Some sage advice I think everypony could stand to hear.

Oh Cels…

image

Is it that time of the month already?

image

Must be what it’s like for human women…

image

Certainly very different. Doesn’t even look like a Call of Cutie game. I’d probably like it. I mean, I like future stuff. But yeah, I can see the reason for the series’ fans feeling betrayed.

image

Here we go…

image

Actually this wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be. I hadn’t seen that trailer yet, so thanks for that.

We shouldn’t, because we’re better than that.

And yeah. I know exactly how close we came to being utterly destroyed. Not even. Like I said, we’d have been a lot worse off, pony’s lives were in jepordy, but we were never in danger of being taken over.

The public seems to forget too often that for one thousand years the Elements of Harmony were unusable. Think for five seconds about all the times Canterlot and Ponyville alone have been attacked in the last two years. If they- the elements, were the only line of defense we had, how would we have survived that long? Princess Celestia is a fair and just ruler, but she’s not a fighter. Not a defender. Up until a few weeks ago I’d just assumed the rumor that she’d taken a vow of non-violance was true.

Here’s a little secret. By the time Princess Cadance had freed Shining Armor and he had used his barrier to repel the changlings, the treasury holding the Elements of Harmony had been secured again. There was a unit starting its way to the throne room. Could they have stopped Chrysalis where Princess Celestia had failed? Probably not. But they could have freed and empowered Shining Armor and Princess Celestia faster than Chrysalis could have bat them down.

That’s not even counting the group that was advancing to awaken Princess Luna.

Equestria’s safety does not rest on a needle’s point. We don’t resort to acts of cruelty because we’re stronger and better than those that do.

1) Really? All the things you humans know about us; all the perverse stuff you write and draw and you don’t even know something basic like that?

Our “naughty bits” mesh when not in use. Male sheath retracts into the body and the left and right walls of the opening close together the same way the female opening and anus do. The mesh is almost perfect on it’s own and fur coat covers the rest. That’s it.

2) Who now?

3) I’ll have to come back to it later again. I have a commission to do!

4) Yeah, I don’t think it would have mattered. You preformed a successful hug anyway.

Interesting. You know, if you want to heal, buff, and debuff, Thermal Radiation can do all three (so can Radiation Emission, but it favors debuffs over buffing and healing). Thermal is basically Sonic Resonance and Empathy combined. There’s some differences from Cold Domination, though.

Looking back, this is a little bigger than I intended. Going to put the rest after a break.

e-the-pony replied to your post: 1) Oh I believe I can… do a little more than…
When did you get those?!

1) Like this.

2) Sorry. Sometimes I swear a little too much. I try to reel it in if somepony points it out.

3) I can’t keep track of your stats for you, Strawberry. You gotta remember this stuff during the action. It’s over. You’ll just have to remember it for next time.

4) Still trying to sort everything out with Boscov’s inventory. Almost done, though. Should finish with that middle of next week. He keeps good records of what he has, just needed to update present-day worth, amount left, et cetera.

Been working on and off with a piece in between other things, just not sure what to do with it. Not coming out like I’d wanted.

5) Look. This is very simple. Door is spring-loaded. Place hoof on doorknob. Turn doorknob. Pull hoof back. Spring pushes door open. Not that complicated.

6) Don’t really feel like looking up the reference. Anypony want to give me the abridged version?

7) You disgust me.

8) Just about every bit of legislation in the entire country goes through Princess Celestia’s office. Every financial report, every threat report, every agricultural report, every surveillance report, every every report. So yes.

9) I don’t understand how that would work. Organic means it has carbon, right? I have carbon. What is it that would make me a robot?

10) Relax. Just a drawing, right? Nothing to worry about.

I can certainly understand the desire to continue using Cold Domination. Novices or faux-vets from other MMOs might want Empathy or Pain Domination for heals, but real vets understand that City of Ponies is a game about buffs and debuffs. And Cold Dom not only has a lot of both, it’s the only support that can boost an ally’s maximum health. If you want to make a new character with Cold Domination I still recommend a Defender, or a Controller if you have that AT unlocked. Corruptor may be the AT in which Cold Domination was first introduced, but it’s the least optimal of the three available.

So… What were you looking to do on this new character? Support? Damage? Tank? Some kind of combination?
