Lyra: Oh, say Bon-Bon.
Bon-Bon: Mmhm.
Lyra: Remember that time Rainbow Dash flew in out of nowhere and ruined our souvenir photos while screaming like a mad mare?
Bon-Bon: Well, if I ever manage to forget we have the photos to remember it by.

Alternate dimensions are weird.

Missed my Tumblrversary again! Last Friday was 5 years!

At least this time I had already started working on something to post. Can’t say when it’ll be done, but I hope soon.

Well, this was the last night. Everypony else has gone home and we head back early tomorrow. Have to be home before school lets out for Liza. We had such a good time though! Got to do so much nerd stuff! We played this super hero card game, some new colony came called Catan, Yoshi game, we even got to see the new Star Wars!

We got to eat at a few places, hang out at a few shops, and just generally wonder around Rainbow Falls without all the fanfare of the Trader’s Exchange.

I wish it hadn’t ended so soon, but I’ll remember this trip fondly and it was a nice way to start the new year! See you all soon!

1) While I’ve played Shadowrun Returns, I don’t really know much about the P&P game. I assume a lot of the choices were made for optimization reasons.

I’m not really that agile, though. And begging your pardon, but I am always very logical.

2) I know basically nothing about Mad Max, but I’m glad you liked it! Also, this Imperator seems to have some delayed motivational issues.

3) No kidding. As if there isn’t enough going on at any given time. Those yaks were furious when they got their tickets. And they didn’t even have to pay for them!

But Pinkie Pie must have done something Pinkie Pie-ish, because everything seems alright now. So if you’ll excuse me, there’s a party going on outside and I think I see a ball bouncing around!

While you sit in silence waiting, something starts to dig uncomfortably into your back. You reach your hand up and realize that the straps on your shoulder aren’t part of your outfit and slide right off. Evidently you were wearing some sort of hiking pack. You push it into the floor next to you, but can’t seem to get your fingers to cooperate and pick it up.

Silver Spoon sees what you’re doing and, with some difficulty, picks up the pack and puts it on the table. Water immediately pools around where it was placed. You must all be soaked.

She opens the bag up and shouts, “A towel!“ She shakes the belt off of it and pushes it over to you. At first you don’t know what to do with it, but she picks it back up and puts it in your hand, “Put it on your head!“

She must mean the cut. You turn your wrist up, still gripping the towel, and place it where the throbbing is. This sends a shiver of pain shooting across your whole body! Good night- does that ever sting!

While you fight against your body to keep still from the rolling pain, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon pull everything out of your pack. Three more wash cloths, the four belts, the knife and holder, and the water bottles. And they’re all bone dry. You had no idea your saddlebag was so water resistant! Or, maybe it’s only water resistant in this world? Wait, did your saddlebag really turn into a hiking pack? That’s ridiculous. You wonder if it’ll turn back when you leave.

You wonder if you’ll turn back when you leave.

Lyra: -ied to me! Lied to my face!

Bon-Bon: I know! I’m-!

Lyra: It’s a breech of trust!

Bon-Bon: I’m sorry!

Lyra: Sorry about what, Bon-Bon?! There’s so much! Sorry about what?! You lied! You withheld information-! All that wasted effort trying to act civil to that polished turd! The next time I see your sister I’m going to tell her exactly where where she can shove it!

Bon-Bon: Lyra no!

Lyra: You told the whole [omitted] internet-!

Bon-Bon: I’m sorry!

Lyra: -Told in confidence! Taken out of context!

Bon-Bon: I didn’t mean to!

Lyra: And then-! And then you tried to cover it up by hacking my XKit blocker! You blocked one of my own tags! Then you blocked somepony else’s! Were they trying to tell me the truth, Bon-Bon?! Huh?!

Bon-Bon: I was just-!

Lyra: How many times did somepony send a message and you intercepted it before I could see?!

Bon-Bon: I-

Lyra: What’s wrong?! Nothing to say?! You just couldn’t stop yourself before!

Bon-Bon: Why don’t you just come out and say it?! You mentioned everything else! Why don’t you just say what you’re really so upset about?!

Lyra: What?

Bon-Bon: You don’t like me! You can’t stand that I still have feelings for you!

Lyra: That has nothing to-!

Bon-Bon: Yes it does! You said you’d date Gilda! You know what that means?! [Sniff] It means you’re not into older guys! You’re not into guys at all! You just don’t like me!

Lyra: That’s because you’re like-!

Bon-Bon: I don’t want to be like a sister to you! [Sob] I never wanted to be your sister! Why can’t you just love me?! What’s wrong with me?! … [Sniff] You went out of your way-… Out of your way to never give me a chance! [Sob] And now it’s too late! [Sobbing]

Lyra: … Bon-Bon, I-…

Bon-Bon: Don’t touch me! Keep your stupid website!

Lyra: Bon-Bon, wait!

[BLAM!]

Lyra: Bon-Bon!

[Rushed door opening] [Fading hoofsteps]

Hey! Uh, I have news! I’ve sort of been holding it back because… Well because I’ve been waiting for something to go wrong.

I have a new job!

I work at Ponyville’s train station! I started this week! I sell tickets and give information! It’s not great, but I’m getting money! More money then I’ve gotten in a long time!

Anyway, that’s why I’ve been so busy. So I’m not ready to answer the Tell messages yet. But I should be able to get to them tomorrow! Thanks!

image
1) Thank you! Those were great!

In particular I’d never heard The District Sleeps Alone Tonight, and it was great!

2) Sure. You don’t need this much time, but I’m gonna be kind of busy for a few days (I’ll explain later, it’s kinda late). So I’ll post the answer on the twenty-second. You have a week. I’ll reblog the rules after this.

3) Yes I did! He was nice! Why, did you know him?

image

1) Oh no! I don’t think you had to do that! Unless they removed the function in X and Y, any legendary you beat on accident will respawn after you defeat the Elite Four and Champion again!

I’m so sorry! I’d have told you if I knew you had a problem!

2) B: I didn’t say the talent got little attention, I said the mark did. You might not understand the meaning behind the mark. You’re looking for a picture.

B: And… I don’t know if I will or not. I shouldn’t, but I might.

3) I don’t know! I’d like to hope we’d have a library somewhere in town. But for all we know Prin… Twilight might convert part of her castle into a public library. I could see her doing that.

4) B: And you would spread unrest under covert military conditions where every minor outburst must be treated as though an insurmountable front could result from inaction.

5) Lyra: Sure! I’ll try to get a picture later of him. All the ones we have are pretty old.

Bon-Bon: Oh, I’ll live. But hey! Thanks for thinking of me! And the store is fine. Just in that gentle lull between major sale periods. Gives me more time to read.

1) Oh! Why thank you!

2) If I may stop time for just a moment. Given the information that you are a human, the answer to the first posed question would be yes. You.

I saw a human once. His name was Marty.

3) Lyra: Thanks!

Bon-Bon: Thank you! You too!

4) Things would have to have taken a grimdark turn if those were discussed regularly. Also pancreas is a funny word.

5) Not that I know of. I mean, I’m sure they’re symbolic of something but I don’t know it. Hands are just a strange thing. Some ponies, like humans, are interested in things that are foreign to their understanding of the world.

Or maybe I imagined the whole thing and there is no such thing as a glass minotaur hand. I have some… I have some kinda dreams.

image

1) Don’t project yourself onto me.

2) Equestria. Ah-quest-tree-ah.

3) Huh. I wasn’t aware the Griffon Kingdom was an actual, you know, monarchy. I thought it was just an autocracy. Alternate dimension or maybe I was just misinformed.

Be nice, be considerate of pony customs, and have patience. Patience and courtesy will win over individuals and unless you’re running for office, that’s all you ever really need.

4) Can’t even remember the date of something that happened this year… I’d say it’s a wonder I can remember my own birthday, but well…

5) Alright, there’s a button on the top left corner of my tumblr page, if you’re really so invested.

6) Will do, though I think she got the message earlier.

7)

Second Chance

Tech guy fixed mai computa!

Back in business! And I can play City of Ponies again!
