Did you see?! What an amazing effect on top of an amazing performance! How did they do that?!

Okay… Okay so, why did Gerald reach for the stolen lockbox? That thing had sat there for untold decades, maybe centuries! He couldn’t wait two minutes to finish pulling up Pinkerton and Rainart? They could have helped him get it! Instead he dislodged it and it sank into the abyss.

If from a writer’s perspective the lockbox needed to be lost (which I would understand perfectly), why not something that doesn’t make Gerald look like an idiot? Here’s an idea: Gerald does retrieve the lockbox, but Pinkerton and Rainart are too heavy to lift. So he uses the lockbox, heavy with gold, as a counterweight to help lift Pinkerton and Rainart back up (Pink and Rain on one end of the rope, treasure on the other, ledge as the fulcrum). Then, when all three are safe, they go to pull the lockbox back up, but it slips out of the rope and then it’s lost.

That way, Gerald would have looked both selfless and smart for literally using the treasure to save his friends!

You got something in your eye.

Oh my God! Oh! My! Go~d! This is the coolest thing ever! Thank you so much! I got this hours ago and I’m still freaking out! It’s so amazing!

I ship the everloving [redacted] out of this. But, I opted to draw them in a less shippy way. Because I care.
Now, I’m going to bed.

Edit: Did I mention that this was all an exercise in fixing how I draw bodies? Because I hated it before, but this one came out nice.They usually come out too stocky and I can’t stand it.

Bon-Bon would love this!

I wish she’d post every once in a while.

Y’alls have got to understand that I’m very, very old. So old, in fact, that when Applejack was a little filly, I was still as old looking as I am now.

Now that I think about that, I’ve got to pick up more makeup.

My old hip prevents me from being out in the fields, and that includes being with the cattle. It slips my mind that we even have cows sometimes, because I’ve only heard Applejack mention them a couple of times. Sorry, everypony!

I just figured you were trolling the young'uns. I thought it was hilarious!
