00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:38,040
I said oh shit, let me try
again.
8
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,560

14
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,200
spike.
I could I?
15
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,720
Could say.
This a lot from saying it.
16
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:22,160
Hello ladies and gentle Colts
and NB Corns.
17
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,880
Welcome to Daniel's delightful
Tales.
18
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,680
And also Tales is spelled like a
thing a pony has this time too.
19
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:40,000
And this week we're going to be
playing the My Little Pony
20
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,000
tabletop RPG.
It's going to be a good time.
21
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,000
We're going to be a bunch of
colorful cartoon horses, and
22
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,560
it's not going to be too
horrible.
23
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,600
If you want horror and death and
murder, please tune in any other
24
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,400
week.
We also have some special guests
25
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,000
joining us this week, but we'll
find out about them in just a
26
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,800
moment.
Let's go around and I'll
27
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,240
introduce ourselves.
I'll go first, just real quick.
28
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,759
My name's Daniel Fernandez.
He him, and I'm going to be your
29
00:02:08,759 --> 00:02:10,960
game Master.
There's no special name for the
30
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,520
game Master in My Little Pony.
I'm going to be your Celestia.
31
00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:20,480
Stable boy.
No, no, I think Dan has at least
32
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:26,160
earned a stable man.
But I I am pretty stable I I
33
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,200
solid income I could pay my rent
bro.
34
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:30,400
You.
Didn't.
35
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,760
Have to throw me under the bus
like that.
36
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,280
OK, Christ.
OK, I wasn't trying to attack.
37
00:02:38,920 --> 00:02:40,440
Hi, everybody.
I'm Nathan.
38
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,680
OK.
Hey, Nathan, you introduced
39
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:43,200
yourself.
Go.
40
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,840
Yeah, I'm Nathan pronouns he
him.
41
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,200
I'm a regular here on on this
lovely podcast and I will be
42
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:56,880
playing the earth pony character
Blank Page, who is a detective
43
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,440
and his cutie mark is a
magnifying glass because he's a
44
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:05,040
detective and I didn't consider
what color he would be before
45
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,720
this.
I guess I've just pictured him
46
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,520
as red this whole time.
So he's red and you know, he's
47
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,360
got the deer stalker cap.
You know he's a cartoon pony
48
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:17,720
detective.
Now deer stalker spelled DEER or
49
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,440
DEAR.
I think it has to be DEAR
50
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,280
because that other otherwise it
would imply that they do hunt
51
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,400
deer in this universe.
This one, you're just hunting
52
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,440
like somebody who was dear to
you.
53
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,680
Yeah, but.
When you're stalking someone
54
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,760
dear to you, what hat do you
want to wear?
55
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,920
That sort of fedora.
I'm the element of kindness.
56
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,720
Everyone is dear to me.
Well, there you go.
57
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,800
No, I was picturing it more like
a love letter.
58
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:48,760
Dear stalker.
I heard, I mean, I've heard a
59
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,480
lot of voices, but Renee, tell
the people about yourself and
60
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,280
your pony.
Which one am I again?
61
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,720
All right, Yes, hello.
I am Renee.
62
00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,280
They sometimes she pronouns.
I don't know.
63
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,360
Anyway, I will be playing doctor
Honey bowl electrod.
64
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,760
I don't think I'm legally
allowed to say on this episode
65
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:14,760
that a pony is hot, so I am not
going to say that, Renee.
66
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,279
Come on the show and we'll let
you say that there's no.
67
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,839
Rules against him.
You're allowed to say the pony's
68
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,720
hot.
I would rather say that Doctor
69
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:28,920
Electrod is one of those ponies
that is going to have kids
70
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,720
discover something about
themselves later on in life as
71
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,120
they as they look back on this
episode of.
72
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:41,640
He is a light tan almost Peach
colored Pegasus with Hazel
73
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,160
blonde short mane, same color
eyes.
74
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,840
He is incredibly smartly dressed
tweed three piece silver mother
75
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:51,760
of Pearl cufflinks and a magic
taipan.
76
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,160
And his Cologne smells like wild
Heather and dark honey.
77
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,360
OK.
And he is a psychiatrist?
78
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,480
What's your cutie Mark?
His cutie mark is a red book.
79
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,200
I'm very hopeful that somebody,
somebody will get the reference.
80
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,080
What's your element of harmony?
Generosity.
81
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,480
I very much enjoy cooking for my
friends.
82
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,080
Oh boy.
I'm sorry.
83
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,880
Oh.
Let's get our last regular voice
84
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,040
you may have heard on the show
introduced here.
85
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,160
Hello, I'm Russell, a corporate
guy from this frenemy forge.
86
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,120
Also, I'm on Daniel's dread
tails, right?
87
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,600
I will be playing Mythic Spice
once more.
88
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:32,680
Who are is a lovely cinnamon
orange colored Unicorn.
89
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,240
Element is laughter, of course.
My cutie mark is a spilled salt
90
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,440
shaker.
Oh, and I'm a Unicorn God.
91
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,880
Damn it.
Thou you may have heard their
92
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,200
voices.
You've definitely heard their
93
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,680
voices already.
You can't keep us contained.
94
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,280
All right, we'll have Theo go
first because you're the one who
95
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:54,600
just talked from the Friendship
Factory podcast.
96
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,640
Theo, tell us about your pony
and yourself.
97
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,400
Hello, yes, my name is Theodore
Monk.
98
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,680
Pronounce he him, and this week
I'm doing my running gag on the
99
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,480
wrong podcast.
Specifically I am playing Balder
100
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,600
Dash, a Unicorn con mare.
In the element of honesty of
101
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,640
this party, I was about to say
element of honesty because I was
102
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:17,480
just reading my notes verbatim,
but yeah, she is, as I said, a
103
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,040
con mare.
We have decided.
104
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,080
I will figure out how that
meshes with being the element of
105
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,600
honesty in terms of what sort of
pony she is.
106
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,080
I have decided because I am not
the most visually a cute person.
107
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,320
I kept it pretty
straightforward.
108
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,480
She is a light blue Unicorn.
Her mane and tail are like
109
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,000
darker blue with almost sort of
purplish with a streak of golden
110
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,480
yellow going throughout it.
The main style, something I
111
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:45,560
would call anime Bob cut and her
cutie mark is a very sort of
112
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,360
generic looking green yellow
flare of light.
113
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,080
It's vagueness definitely
doesn't play into her con artist
114
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:51,920
tendencies.
I.
115
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,440
Mean it takes one to no one
What?
116
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,880
The fuck you say to me?
Kane, tell us about yourself and
117
00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,840
your pony.
Hi, my name is Kane.
118
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:03,800
My pronouns are they and it I am
super jazzed to be here today.
119
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,640
I'm going to be I'm I forgot to
do the the friendship factory
120
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:08,680
this week.
My job is bit.
121
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,040
I was going to do the same bit
as Theo.
122
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,440
I've already failed this.
I'm going to be playing
123
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,360
heartstrings, who is an earth
pony.
124
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,760
She has like a reddish kind of
almost pink coat and an orange
125
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,480
mane and like freckles.
She's very cute.
126
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:27,680
Her Kitty Mark is like a heart
with like baby bottle in it.
127
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:32,760
Her special talent is child care
and she works as a general
128
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,200
purpose nanny slash babysitter
in Ponyville.
129
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,160
Would she describe it as full
care, given the idiosyncrasies
130
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,200
of this universe?
She would, but I won't.
131
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,680
And what is your element of
harmony?
132
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,080
Heartstrings element is also
generosity.
133
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,200
We're a double generous group.
So we're a very generous group.
134
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,840
She also most of us are not
talking about perks but it's
135
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,120
notable she also has the wealth
perk.
136
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,280
Definitely normal circumstances.
I was wondering if you were
137
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,840
going to take that, but yes,
because we talked about your
138
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,520
pony being rich, you remember to
take the wealth perk.
139
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,760
I love it.
OK, OK, well, your character
140
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,080
sheets are all a little bit more
complicated that, but we don't
141
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,520
need to talk about everybody's
scores and backgrounds and all
142
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,200
that crap.
So let's get into things.
143
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:25,080
It is a typical morning in
Ponyville.
144
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,040
This takes place in Ponyville,
by the way.
145
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,000
That's about their place.
It's not Manhattan or something
146
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,919
like that.
And the birds are singing.
147
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,159
Young Colts are delivering the
latest copy of the Ponyville
148
00:08:36,159 --> 00:08:38,679
Chronicle.
People are packing up their
149
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,520
carts to go to the market.
The sun isn't quite up yet, but
150
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,000
they're they're all getting to
work.
151
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,680
The owls are tucking into their
hollows to sleep.
152
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,480
That's what happens every day in
Ponyville.
153
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,680
But today in Ponyville is a
little bit different.
154
00:08:53,680 --> 00:08:58,040
Because you see, normally the
sun begins to rise around this
155
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,720
time.
And today it doesn't.
156
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:07,960
No morning dawns on Equestria.
Darkness envelops the land, and
157
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:14,120
the citizens of Ponyville panic.
With no light, ponies collide
158
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,080
into each other in the middle of
the street, Flying pegasi are
159
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,520
crashing into bushes, Farmers
and artisans are like spilling
160
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,240
all their goods that they're
supposed to deliver to the
161
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,520
market.
Mayor.
162
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,480
Mayor calls out from their
window, trying to keep everybody
163
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,040
calm, but nobody can hear above
the noise.
164
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:35,040
Ponyville is a mess.
Also, the sun hasn't risen.
165
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,280
Are the street lights like on a
fucking timer that they just
166
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,680
like turned off but the sun
wasn't up yet?
167
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,840
Look, they're very they they got
their routine in Ponyville.
168
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,640
Everybody's doing their routine
and they're all expecting the
169
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:50,800
sun to rise.
And then it did.
170
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:56,200
And now chaos in the streets.
My question for you is, we'll go
171
00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,840
around and I want you to tell me
real quick, what are you doing
172
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,000
in the morning?
Maybe you wake up this early
173
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,080
around sunrise, or maybe you
will be woken up by a cart
174
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,960
running into another cart or
something like that near your
175
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,040
place.
Just give me a quick snippet of
176
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,640
what your character is doing
because I need to get you all
177
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,160
out into the darkness to try to
deal with the things that are
178
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,080
going on.
Oh, I suppose I should also
179
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,000
note, you hear maybe one or two
people running in the streets
180
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,760
saying, where's Twilight?
Isn't she supposed to solve this
181
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:32,000
sort of thing?
And then somebody else says, I
182
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,160
think she's in the Crystal
Empire.
183
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,320
Yeah.
Is that to ask if this was like
184
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,240
a Ponyville timeline where like
the main 6 have been a thing or
185
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,760
they haven't been a thing yet or
they just don't exist or they
186
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,600
leave?
No, it's it's clearly the
187
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,240
timeline with people in it.
Oh, we're doing Equestria Girls.
188
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:49,440
Got it, got it, got it.
No, no.
189
00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:52,000
No, we're not doing well.
Equestria Girls exist in an
190
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,840
alternate universe.
You just have to step through
191
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,000
the magic mirror.
But we're not doing that right
192
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,760
now.
We don't need to go to Cancer.
193
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,880
Lot High.
Oh, I will turn away from the
194
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,520
magic mirror then.
OK, so anybody, if you have an
195
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,160
idea of what your character
might be doing, let me know.
196
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,800
We're going to go around, tell
me what you're doing.
197
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,480
So I want to volunteer earlier
that I don't in case someone
198
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,600
like Heartstrings or someone
else wants to come get me.
199
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,000
I think Balderdash is such a
disaster that she is like true
200
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,520
to the stereotype of like almost
a Kristen Bell type character.
201
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,280
There's all the disasters
happening outside and she, like,
202
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,520
wakes up hearing, like, a car to
scratch another part and then
203
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,400
just immediately goes back to
sleep and, like, pulls the cover
204
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:30,880
over her head.
OK?
205
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,480
Like there's an empty bag of
chips spilling like crumbs out
206
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:34,920
onto the floor nearby.
Love.
207
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,760
It perfect.
OK, well I guess this will be a
208
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,120
very easy adventure for you if
you remain adventure.
209
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,000
I mean I will join, I just
wanted to establish.
210
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:46,880
No, it's totally fine.
I love it.
211
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:47,720
I love it.
I love.
212
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,920
It no, I mean this is your out.
All right.
213
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,080
Yeah, See ya.
I think, I think since
214
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,320
Heartstrings was invoked, I kind
of have an idea.
215
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,800
I think maybe one of her many,
like various small babysitting
216
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:08,120
gigs is that one of the kids
that she cares for, she's
217
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,720
responsible for getting them
awake into school on time.
218
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,480
I don't know if in Ponyville
kids also have to be up and at
219
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,720
school at a very ridiculously
early hour, but that makes.
220
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,800
You have to go see cheerily at
some point, yeah.
221
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:26,600
Yeah, so and I think she is
struggling because little kids
222
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,880
don't function well when the sun
doesn't go that time that it's
223
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,000
supposed to go, Yes.
So I think she's desperately
224
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,480
trying to keep, like, a very,
very sleepy little kid.
225
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,640
Or Fuller Philly, I suppose, on
schedule.
226
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,240
Well, it's just pitch black
outside, OK.
227
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,960
And then if no one else goes to
get balderdash, I'm sure she'll
228
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,440
pick up the slack.
I can have her drag herself out
229
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,520
of bed if everyone else has.
Everyone else has their own
230
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,320
thing to do and doesn't want to
cater to me.
231
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:59,120
The protagonist of the.
Here's a question balderdash.
232
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,840
If you're this much of a mess,
are you in therapy by any
233
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:07,240
chance?
Oh my God, I want to propose
234
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,800
something to you, Renee.
Go ahead.
235
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,120
We establish that Balderdash is
such a shitty con artist because
236
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,480
she has a conscience and so
she's constantly broke.
237
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:19,320
What if, like, Honey Bowl
insisted on giving her therapy?
238
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,640
Like saw like like.
The pro bono.
239
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,520
He who shall not be named style
saw her as someone he could
240
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,680
like, manipulate into being a
better person or better pony.
241
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,800
Who says anything about
manipulate?
242
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,280
I'm doing a pro bono, of course,
Yes.
243
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:37,160
Of course, very, very.
Night out of us very generous I.
244
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:38,600
Think it would be, really.
Yeah.
245
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,800
I think the answer is yes if you
agree to the idea that like it
246
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,960
was him insisting on her coming
to therapy.
247
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,160
I love it.
Renee is completely on board
248
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,880
with it.
Doctor Lectra is standing by his
249
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:56,120
window, second story, drinking a
very aromatic cup of dark
250
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:00,320
roaster Arabica espresso and
looking at all the chaos with no
251
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,560
motion visible on his chiseled
face.
252
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:07,880
In a few minutes, he puts the
cup down, gets dressed and goes
253
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,320
to find either one of his
patients.
254
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,280
The other of his patients is
busy marshalling together a
255
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,480
street gang very inspired by Mad
Max, saying that this is clearly
256
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:21,000
the end of the world.
Oh boy, I think I might need to
257
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,920
find you first.
I'm not.
258
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,680
Experienced with therapy, is
this good?
259
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,480
Was that a joke, Mythic spice
that you're putting together a
260
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,120
street gig for the end of the
world?
261
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,200
This is just something that's
happening off in the background.
262
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,480
Oh, it's like Pinky's doing
something stupid in the
263
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,120
background.
Exactly.
264
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,480
OK, you know what, I'm actually
curious what will happen with
265
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,600
Mythic Spice, so I'm just going
to let her go at it for a bit
266
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,600
longer while I go and find
Alderdash.
267
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,880
We've strapped tires and spikes
and stuff to a carriage.
268
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,920
Spike.
Spike went to the Crystal
269
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,000
Empire.
He's not here.
270
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,800
Oh, so I guess it's just metal
protrusions then.
271
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,480
OK, yes.
Yeah, you're marshalling
272
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,880
together, people.
You see a honey bowl just
273
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,200
gliding overhead, just looking
at you.
274
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,240
I wave tearfully.
I give a reserved.
275
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,000
Nod, and then I go back to
bolting things onto a carriage.
276
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,160
If you can even see each other
in the dark.
277
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,360
Wait, we don't have dark vision?
No, you don't have dark vision.
278
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,600
Do we have flashlights?
You don't have a flashlight.
279
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,800
In fact, if you would like to
see well in the darkness, I need
280
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:32,000
you to make a difficulty 15
alertness skill test to operate.
281
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,640
I am pulling up right now to
prove if Ponyville does or does
282
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,800
not have lampposts.
OK, I don't see.
283
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,280
Anything.
I don't think it does.
284
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,760
I don't think it does either.
I was doing some research.
285
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,120
Mayor Mayor once again pocketing
Public Utilities funds.
286
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,480
Well Dang, I only have AG4IN
alertness.
287
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,360
Yeah, you roll D20 plus the D4.
That's how the the dice roll.
288
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,880
You always roll D20 and then you
add your skill.
289
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,560
So this will be our, if you want
to, this could be our first
290
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:57,960
roll.
This could be sort of a sample
291
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,320
roll.
Failing will not be too deadly.
292
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,200
You might run into somebody as
you're flying through the air,
293
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,280
definitely, but.
I rolled the 14 so while I see
294
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,200
something up there, I'm just
waving to be friendly.
295
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,240
Errol the 19.
OK, there you go.
296
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:15,000
You see Mythic Spice getting up
to whatever nonsense they're
297
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:19,400
getting up to.
You also see that there is a
298
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:25,240
little Pegasus stuck in a tree
nearby saying help some pony
299
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,480
please help me.
Maybe it's because I haven't
300
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,280
watched this show in 10 years,
but still hearing where somebody
301
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,520
say stuff like every pony does
put a mild fight or flight in
302
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,880
me.
Buddy, you're gonna get ready.
303
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,720
Oh boy.
You can just feel your brain
304
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,480
starting to rot.
Let's do this, but before we do
305
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,320
any of that, Nathan, what is
Blank Page doing?
306
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:52,160
He hears a bit of raucous steps
out of like his house, looks
307
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:56,240
outside, immediately closes the
door you hear shuffling around,
308
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,640
and then comes back out with an
old timey like gas Lantern.
309
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,120
Because you've given me the
perfect opportunity to go the
310
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,680
full Sherlock Holmes aesthetic,
and I will use it.
311
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,079
OK, I'll let you.
Yeah, sure.
312
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:09,160
You got your gas Lantern.
The game is afoot.
313
00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:12,960
From you it would sound like.
Go over a foot.
314
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,560
Because you would have to be
carrying the gas Lantern in your
315
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,760
mouth.
OK, so I have to have this in my
316
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,280
mouth and do the southern accent
at the same time.
317
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,119
Just a moment, no?
No, you don't need.
318
00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:25,800
To the guns are hot.
There you go.
319
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:31,400
Not bad, not bad, Pretty good.
The key is to just bite down on
320
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,520
my hand while I'm doing it and
it works.
321
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,640
As you step outside you see
chaos in the streets.
322
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:44,440
Standing in the middle of the
street is an old green pony with
323
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,600
white hair.
You maybe recognize her as
324
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:51,240
Granny Smith saying Oh my gosh
darn, what's every pony hopping
325
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,760
and hollering as she is trying
to cross the street and is
326
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,320
having difficulty?
My God.
327
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,560
OK, step one, help this lady
cross the street.
328
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,600
Step 2.
I figure out what's going on.
329
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,240
Let's start with step one.
All right, what sort of skill do
330
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,680
you want to use to help this
lady cross the street that's
331
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,480
full of people who don't know
where they're going?
332
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,600
You do not need to make an
awareness check to see however,
333
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:13,960
because you established you have
a Lantern.
334
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,120
Actually, because this is about
like navigating through a
335
00:18:17,120 --> 00:18:21,400
situation, could I use alertness
as the scale for this?
336
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,000
2C Things is not going to
actually get Granny Smith across
337
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,240
the road.
OK.
338
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,400
I do have to actually.
Yeah, yeah, right.
339
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,120
You could do maybe a Braun or
Finesse tech, or you can even
340
00:18:32,120 --> 00:18:35,200
try to persuade her to cross the
road herself and not be afraid I
341
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,920
guess.
I'm I'm almost OK at finesse.
342
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,280
I'll do that.
What's the difficulty?
343
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:46,920
It's like difficulty 10.
All right, rolled a 12 without
344
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,160
even adding my bonus die from my
skills so.
345
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,040
OK, that's great.
Let me help you across, ma'am.
346
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,560
These seem to be dark days, if
you pardon the expression.
347
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,840
Where did the gosh darn sun go?
What Darnay should happen to it?
348
00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:05,680
That is an excellent question
and I will be trying to find the
349
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,440
answer.
What I want you to do, you're a
350
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,520
detective, right?
You're a detective.
351
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,560
I am.
All right, I had been saving up
352
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:16,560
all my bits for, well, a
surgery, it doesn't matter, but
353
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:21,400
I want to hire you to find what
happened to the sun and wear
354
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,160
that angry Stampede that almost
ran me over when they were
355
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,760
running towards San for free.
There he goes, young and seen a
356
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,840
good talking to I tell you what,
and she gives you a a bag of
357
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,520
several bits.
I am crazy.
358
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,880
Definitely giving these back to
her by when this is over, She
359
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,400
said.
This was for a surgery.
360
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:46,000
Got to get that hip replaced.
It's crazy that this universe
361
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,960
has magic but no universal
healthcare.
362
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,000
I was about to say yeah,
healthcare in Ponyville sucks
363
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,200
apparently.
Rainbow Dash is still paying off
364
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,400
those few days in the hospital.
This feels like a good moment
365
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:02,000
for Mythic Spice to appear.
OK, the street gang is what they
366
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,480
were crossing the street in
front of.
367
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,040
We were all waiting, politely of
course, but Mythic Spice sees
368
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,400
Granny Smith hand off these bits
and old people money that should
369
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,480
be in my funeral home's pockets.
Jesus.
370
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,000
Oh.
My God.
371
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,560
Mythic spice.
I'm going to need you to tone it
372
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:23,480
down to several degrees.
This situation calls for calm.
373
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:29,320
Calm, calm.
Got 2 honey bowl knocking on
374
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:48,440
Balderdash's door very politely.
When she finally opens the door,
375
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,840
I think she has the thing
Twilight sometimes has in the
376
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,280
show when like she's navigating
the dark, like the big sort of
377
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,120
like glowy bit at the end of her
horn.
378
00:20:55,120 --> 00:20:57,040
She's just like, God what is it
dude?
379
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,760
Do you know what time it is?
I think that's another part of
380
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,440
why Doctor Electrod went to find
balderdash in the first place.
381
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,440
Yeah, you're gonna, but it's
like that to being a flashlight.
382
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,840
That OK would be really funny if
the only reason Balder is like
383
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,640
gang pressed into helping on
this adventures because she's
384
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,360
the only one who can.
Fuck, that's not true.
385
00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:18,480
We're friends.
We're.
386
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:23,640
Friends.
Yeah, Rudolph and Santa, we're
387
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,760
friends.
Jesus.
388
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,720
I think it's like everyone else
wants to go and fix this problem
389
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,440
and she's like, I'd like to stay
at home.
390
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,080
And they're like, no, you're
coming with us.
391
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,520
You're the only one who can
function as a light.
392
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,880
Honey bow goes well.
There seems to be some commotion
393
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,840
in the street.
I just wanted to check on you.
394
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,800
Yeah, Doc, I'm, I'm doing just
fine, thank you.
395
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,960
And she's already like, trying
to close the door, like.
396
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,320
Very slowly.
I just want to establish one
397
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:59,960
more time there is a little
Philly Unicorn in a tree yelling
398
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,120
some pony.
Please help me.
399
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,440
First of all, you said Pegasus.
Second of all, I heard you
400
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,040
perfectly well.
Yeah, they're not going
401
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:08,000
anywhere.
I know.
402
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,880
I just, I just wanted to make
that pony show up again.
403
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,520
I know you heard it.
I'm really scared.
404
00:22:14,120 --> 00:22:15,840
OK.
Yeah, I think with that, Boulder
405
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,080
does stop closing the door.
I think she actually, I think
406
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,480
she stops, starts to close it
again and then like the Philly
407
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,840
once again, like starts like
calling for help.
408
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:28,360
And then she finally rolls her
eyes, opens the doors, and like,
409
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,960
trots past Honey Bowl toward
wherever like that fucking tree
410
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,640
is presumably like, keep
conversing with him along the
411
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,560
way.
I think it is our duty as
412
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,800
citizens of Equestria to assist
in any way we can.
413
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,560
You said duty, she says that she
I know you're going to make me
414
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,200
roll for this stand, but I think
she is going to try and use like
415
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,640
rudimentary Unicorn telekinesis
to get the little Philly down.
416
00:22:52,120 --> 00:22:53,880
OK.
What do you get a role for that?
417
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,320
I don't have any specific spells
that work for this, but I think
418
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,840
I do just straight up have yeah,
telekinesis.
419
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,720
You could use your telekinesis,
you could use your magic.
420
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,200
You could also use like finesse
to like try to control like
421
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,200
bringing them down.
Suppose you could also like
422
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,800
bring over a ladder and climb
up.
423
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:10,880
Or I mean, maybe you don't even
need to do it.
424
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,560
Maybe Honey Bowl could fly up
there and help him get out of
425
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,000
the tree and you could just like
the way.
426
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,680
I I was going to say I.
Will observe for now.
427
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:19,480
OK.
All right.
428
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,320
Observe OK.
You got this homie.
429
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,120
I think I am going to use
telekinesis.
430
00:23:26,120 --> 00:23:28,600
I think depending on how tall
you imagine this tree, we may be
431
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,560
fudging it because it does say
that I can maneuver any object
432
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,840
from about 10 feet away, but
whatever.
433
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:35,200
There aren't feet in this
universe.
434
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,080
I don't think it matters.
That's hooves it says.
435
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,440
I use smarts set of strength to
move it and any skill test to
436
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,680
manipulate it uses alertness
instead of my door.
437
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,760
Bronze, right?
OK, thank you for checking that.
438
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,000
I forgot that that's how that
worked.
439
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,640
I have already forgotten how
anything works in this game.
440
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,880
What do you need me to?
Roll alertness.
441
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,720
So that'll be you.
Roll AD 20 and you add the die
442
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,160
that you have for alertness.
What?
443
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,120
What do you have for alert?
It looks like I have AD 4.
444
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,800
OK, so you roll D20 and AD 4 and
add them together.
445
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,920
Fuck me, that is A9.
I almost flew into a windmill
446
00:24:10,120 --> 00:24:11,960
and now I'm here and I don't
know how to get down because I
447
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,240
can't leave the mob and it's
like really dark.
448
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,160
This is so funny, help me
please.
449
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,320
Maybe this isn't what you're
going for, but can I make a
450
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,400
suggestion for Alec that role
manifests?
451
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,360
How does it look?
I do pull her off the branch,
452
00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:26,160
but I accidentally drop her on
my head.
453
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,960
Can I catch her in the air?
Yeah, difficulty 8 Acrobatics
454
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:36,160
flag check to catch her.
OK, I get a edge on action skill
455
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,160
tests as a Pegasus when it
involves acrobatics.
456
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,680
Yes, so would edge means you
consider yourself to have a one
457
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,160
die higher for your bone to die?
Perfect, huh?
458
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,960
I rolled another 19.
Very nice.
459
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:49,760
OK.
God damn you easily catch her.
460
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,400
Yes, very graciously, gracefully
and graciously, I suppose.
461
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,560
Yeah, this was an act of
benevolence.
462
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,040
Golly, Mr. You're.
You're so nice.
463
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,600
And.
And you too, I guess.
464
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,840
Yeah.
My name's Cotton Cloudy and I'm
465
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,240
trying to go to school, but I
don't even know how to get to
466
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,480
school.
Do I know where the children's
467
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,080
school is?
Yeah, there's like 1 school it's
468
00:25:16,120 --> 00:25:17,920
on.
I always imagined it's kind of
469
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,640
on the edge of town.
You don't see a lot of houses
470
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,480
around it.
That makes sense to me.
471
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,040
Also, they run through a forest
while they sing a song.
472
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,560
If they're going to it, you're
in a much later episode, but
473
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,640
whatever.
I think this may be where the
474
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,320
the button gets pressed that I
was alluding to earlier that I
475
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,400
think Balder's first instinct is
when, like the little girl is
476
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,320
saying to Honey was like, I need
help getting to school.
477
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,640
She's like, all right, cool, you
can handle this, see you later.
478
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,360
But then like however the
characters involved pointed out
479
00:25:42,360 --> 00:25:44,800
realize, oh, they won't be able
to see where they're going
480
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:46,280
unless I come with them.
Yes.
481
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,520
Unless there's a crowd of
children she can follow.
482
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,040
There is not actually.
Maybe somebody specialized in
483
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,160
child care?
Yes, that is somebody
484
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:56,480
specialized in child care.
I was.
485
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,920
Actually going to have you guys
meet her at the school is kind
486
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:02,560
of the thing that I was leaning
towards there, yeah.
487
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,440
Come on, let's get you to
school.
488
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,840
I'm a corona adult, why am I
waking up on time for school
489
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:08,720
all?
Right.
490
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:11,240
Fair.
Nod.
491
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:16,200
Heartstrings, yes.
So you are bringing your charge
492
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:23,360
to school and as you are going
along it is dark but you know
493
00:26:23,360 --> 00:26:27,040
the way even in the dark.
But all of a sudden jumping out
494
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,920
in the trees it's a vampire
fruit bat.
495
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:34,840
The fuck?
Oh wait no, Oh no.
496
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:39,520
God damn it, it snips and snails
dressed as vampire fruit bats.
497
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,840
How did they get this in so so
little time?
498
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,160
Did they have this ready?
They're old nightmare night
499
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:55,320
costumes.
That's you boys.
500
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,520
Wow.
Very talented.
501
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:04,920
Never, never do that again.
We got you, We got you.
502
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,080
You got me.
You got me really bad.
503
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:14,120
Do you want to try to like teach
them a lesson or anything like
504
00:27:14,120 --> 00:27:17,360
that?
Or or you could be scared.
505
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,120
Either 1 is fine, I don't care.
I think my ability to do
506
00:27:20,120 --> 00:27:22,680
something is somewhat limited by
it, like I'm not the boss of
507
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,720
them.
But this is true, OK.
508
00:27:25,120 --> 00:27:27,960
Heartstrings just goes cold and
it's like get me a switch.
509
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:35,320
Unless you're going to do like
intimidation or I guess Braun,
510
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,520
but no, we're not going to beat.
Up.
511
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,640
No, I don't.
I don't think heartstrings is
512
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,120
that kind of person.
I do think, I think she, I, I
513
00:27:41,120 --> 00:27:44,880
think she's like, you know, I
have a very strong and powerful
514
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,120
heart.
But if you do that to the wrong
515
00:27:46,120 --> 00:27:48,160
pony, you could really hurt
them.
516
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,760
So I'd I'd be careful about
that.
517
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,800
If you'd like, you can make a
persuasion test.
518
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:58,000
My persuasion's pretty good.
I do have a specialization in
519
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,800
understanding.
Is there any chance that that
520
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:02,720
could apply here?
Not really.
521
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,520
Nope.
Yeah, you're that's fair enough.
522
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,120
OK, just normal style then.
Well, that's 22O.
523
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,080
OK.
This is my best stat.
524
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,640
Go to childcare I guess, OK.
Oh fuck right, this is also a
525
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,160
childcare role.
So we didn't even factor in that
526
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,720
you would get a bonus because
it's childcare.
527
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,000
Yeah, maybe.
Yeah, my special talents is in
528
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,880
childcare, which gives me an
upshift on any action, so it's
529
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,640
actually a higher role than
that, but I'm not going to
530
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:27,640
bother.
OK.
531
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,880
Oh, yeah, I guess that was kind
of mean.
532
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,480
It was his idea.
Oh, OK.
533
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,520
And they sort of take it off
their costumes.
534
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:42,280
And I guess should we go to
school then?
535
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,960
Or probably is school even
happening today?
536
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,600
You know, I haven't heard
anything to suggest that it
537
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,400
isn't.
So the worst things that happens
538
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,120
is we all go and they send you
home and you have a day off.
539
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,360
A day off.
I go boy, fuck you.
540
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,240
What have you done?
Well, I guess it would be a
541
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,240
night off considering there's no
son.
542
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,040
She's got a child here, she's
not immune, so making.
543
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:10,920
Mistakes.
It's like saying treat around a
544
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,400
dog.
That Snips who says that and
545
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:19,280
runs towards the school and
Stale says do you know why the
546
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:24,720
sun's not here?
You know, I don't, and I know
547
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,840
that can be a little scary, but
I'm sure there are some very,
548
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,720
very smart ponies working their
hardest to find out why.
549
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:37,320
Well, I there's that inventor,
he's somebody, said The inventor
550
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,680
who lives on the edge of town is
the reason the sun didn't go up.
551
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,640
I saw an angry mob going towards
his house.
552
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:52,800
Is that so?
Yeah, well, bye, bye.
553
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,880
I've done my exposition, so my
role here is finished.
554
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,000
He runs after snips.
They are chewing bubble gums so
555
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,200
this might end up causing a a
problem.
556
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:09,480
But God, of course.
I think everybody sort of, well,
557
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,160
I guess.
Pony excuse you.
558
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,200
I was going to say Every Pony,
but I guess not Blank Page and
559
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:18,280
Mythic Spice.
Although make it through the
560
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,240
schoolhouse.
Somehow, Blank Page has been
561
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:26,080
roped into a gathering outside
Mayor Mayor's office, and Mythic
562
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,840
Mice is shouting Who knows,
booty.
563
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,960
Bell.
And waiting for people to chant
564
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,840
mythic spice or mayor and mayor.
Really, we're trying to figure
565
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,400
out what the peoples are feeling
here.
566
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,600
The polls are pretty rudimentary
in booty film.
567
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,960
Like 6 different genres of show
are happening across our human
568
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,920
right now.
That's My Little Pony, baby.
569
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:56,400
From some of the minds behind
Daniel's Dread tails comes a new
570
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,360
type of horror podcast that I
invented, that I'm calling the
571
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,240
audio drama, and I invented it
and nobody else does it.
572
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:07,280
The Mcmangus Archives.
We're going to do a spooky times
573
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,000
play for your year.
Holes like AQ tip.
574
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,960
It's scary, like a scary Q-tip
for your ears.
575
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,520
The Mcmangus Archives.
You remember how there were
576
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,600
there was there used to be radio
plays?
577
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,400
It's like that, but it lives on
your phone now and it's scary.
578
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:30,680
Real scary.
The Mick Magnus No, I'm reading
579
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:36,520
this wrong.
The Mick Mang Mick Mangus
580
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:40,120
archives.
The Mick Mangus Archives.
581
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,240
Is there a hole in your heart
that only.
582
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,760
Mcmangus Archives.
Can fill Does fantasy heroism
583
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,040
make you yawn?
Do good roles keep getting in
584
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,480
the way of interesting stories?
Mcmangus Archives It's.
585
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,880
The show for you?
Coming this scary season to your
586
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:01,160
phone not in AU two way but in a
that's how we listen to podcasts
587
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,080
way anyway.
It's a new story and little
588
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:09,280
places continuity, the Mcmangus
archives and that I do a kissy
589
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:16,560
face at the camera.
Yeah, a little bit.
590
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,800
We figure out Mayor, Mayor is
still technically in charge, and
591
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,360
Mythic Spice calms down the
street gang and says so weren't
592
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,320
we going to do something?
Well, I Mythic Spice, I am
593
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:38,040
officially deputizing you to be
the coroner for The Sun, but
594
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,920
hopefully the sun's not actually
dead.
595
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,320
Well, I am pretty good at
figuring out why stuff stays
596
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:49,760
down.
Yeah, Jesus, you and Blake Page,
597
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,240
you don't want to solve things
right?
598
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,280
It is true.
Well, the mayor of Ponyville
599
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,880
would be very grateful if you
did this for the town.
600
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,920
I'll bet she would Granny Smith.
Granny Smith went to the market.
601
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:02,200
She's gone now.
It's fun.
602
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,360
OK.
This is mayor, mayor, mayor,
603
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:05,960
mayor saying this to you.
Of course.
604
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,440
Yes.
Well, we'll do our best.
605
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:08,040
Mayor.
Mayor.
606
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,600
She also didn't offer any money
but.
607
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,200
I'm I'm not getting paid for
this one, am I?
608
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,320
I guess you never get paid for
the apocalypses, you know,
609
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:23,200
because like.
We don't need to say that a word
610
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,000
around here.
It's fine.
611
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,000
Everything's fine.
Everything's fine, Everything's
612
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,720
fine.
Please tell everybody that
613
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,520
everything's fine.
Ma'am, do you need a Xanax?
614
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,680
I thought recall was the word
we're not supposed to say around
615
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:38,000
you.
And she looks back out to the
616
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,280
the assembled citizens who are
outside her office, also
617
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:42,840
demanding things.
It says.
618
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,480
And don't worry citizens,
everything will be fine.
619
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:53,360
And somewhere, filthy rich is
plotting his plan to run from.
620
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,920
There, Jesus Christ, at what
point do me and Honey Bowl get
621
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,240
to the schoolhouse?
I don't know you.
622
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,120
You're there.
You're at the schoolhouse.
623
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:04,880
It's fine.
Everybody's at the schoolhouse.
624
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,400
Wow, almost everybody.
I think we got lost blank page I
625
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,080
think.
You got lost.
626
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,440
Let's litter around the
schoolyard until someone tells
627
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,560
us where we should go.
I think it might make more sense
628
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,440
for us 3 to go to the mayor's
house because we have no
629
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,159
business being here actually.
You're escorting the child to
630
00:34:24,159 --> 00:34:26,920
the school.
Yeah, yeah, they've done that.
631
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:28,960
Yeah, every.
Let's just have everybody go to
632
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:30,560
the school so we can get get
through it quicker.
633
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,880
Also, because there's one more
thing at the school, you get to
634
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,760
the school.
There are no Phillies or Colts
635
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,080
inside.
But you do see Miss Cheerily
636
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:46,199
sitting on the front porch of
the school saying, oh, hello,
637
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,080
we're supposed to have class
this morning, but none of the
638
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,840
foals are here.
Well, from what I can see you
639
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:57,880
have at least 2.
Oh oh it's so good to see you 2
640
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,120
go inside.
I guess we are having class
641
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:08,320
today.
Go read the next chapter in your
642
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:09,920
books.
Sniffs and sails.
643
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,040
Just look back at heartstrings.
You fucked us.
644
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,640
Heartstrings, you fucked us.
Yeah.
645
00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:20,720
We'll never forget about this.
I honestly thought Snips and
646
00:35:20,720 --> 00:35:23,920
Snails was 1 pony no?
Snips and Snails were two
647
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,840
different ponies.
OK, so you have. 3 ponies,
648
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,600
technically.
Yeah, there are 4 ponies sitting
649
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,800
in there.
Yeah, par strings waits for all
650
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,560
of the Foals and Phillies to be
out of ear shot and then she
651
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,120
goes.
I am so sorry, Miss Julie.
652
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,240
No, it's fine.
I just how am I supposed to
653
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:43,160
teach in the dark?
I'm not prepared for this.
654
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,440
I I don't know if I'm a very
good teacher.
655
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,840
Do you do you not have any
candles, Miss Shirley?
656
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:53,520
I actually have a flashlight,
but one flashlight is not going
657
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,760
to be enough for all of the
children to be able to read
658
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,720
their books.
Do you have a projector?
659
00:35:58,040 --> 00:35:59,920
Does your question I have
protectors?
660
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,120
I don't think we.
No, definitely do, because they
661
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,440
watch the fucking short film.
They watch the short.
662
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:05,960
Film how to do they do have
protectors.
663
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,120
They slurp up all the water to
Cloudsdale well.
664
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,320
There you go.
Yeah, but they don't have one in
665
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,480
the school.
Right into the school, yeah.
666
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,920
Underfunded.
Madam, I think in these
667
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:23,360
circumstances your primary duty
is to keep these children safe.
668
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,080
Heartstrings nods.
A school A school should be the
669
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:28,840
safest place in the city, is it
not?
670
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:32,240
Yes, yes, you're right, it
should be.
671
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,080
Maybe I just hope I can keep
them safe.
672
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,040
We're going to need to make some
sort of social check to inspire
673
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:39,680
her, or some other check I
guess.
674
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:46,720
Oh, Persuasion, Yeah.
Can I help with this in any way?
675
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,080
You can.
Friendship circle you.
676
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,600
Help people.
You can do a friendship circle.
677
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:57,360
I could or I could just, I could
use generosity of spirit.
678
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,280
I'm not sure if that's the time
to use this.
679
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,680
I could step in with in the
spirit of honesty as well.
680
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,080
We do have a few and I would
gain a friendship point from
681
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,440
that.
Lend assistance When multiple
682
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,920
ponies work together on a single
task, 1 pony takes the lead and
683
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:13,840
everybody else helps.
The leader is the one who makes
684
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,320
the role for the helpers.
Leading assistance is considered
685
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,840
a standard action, and each
helper gives a plus one shift to
686
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:24,080
the roller's role.
My persuasion gets AD 6.
687
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,320
Well, so you start with AD 6 and
for everybody who helps, they
688
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:30,760
have to have at least AD two in
the skill that they are helping
689
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,360
with.
And this is.
690
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:33,520
I do.
Persuasion.
691
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,840
Persuasion.
I have AD 4IN persuasion.
692
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,480
I also have AD 4IN persuasion
and I'm gonna use a charge of
693
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,960
those who know teach which gives
the benefits of my help for the
694
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,000
rest of the scene slash
encounter instead of just the
695
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,080
skill test.
Nice, great.
696
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,720
So what do I get?
Well, so how many people are
697
00:37:49,720 --> 00:37:51,160
helping here?
There's three of us total.
698
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,160
Two of us are helping, I think.
I think the other two are.
699
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,720
Still, So you're gonna roll AD
20 plus your What's your
700
00:37:56,720 --> 00:37:58,560
persuasion diet?
6.
701
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,000
So you're gonna upgrade it twice
to a 12?
702
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,120
Nice.
No, you're gonna shit.
703
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:06,320
Persuade.
This better at.
704
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:10,080
All this might be a. 10A little
10 Hey, we're figuring out the
705
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,800
mechanics.
Yeah, it's fine.
706
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,920
This is also why I wanted to do
these low stakes rolls to make
707
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,360
sure I remember how everything
worked.
708
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,960
What's the difficulty?
The difficulty is 14.
709
00:38:22,720 --> 00:38:24,440
I unfortunately rolled like
garbage.
710
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,320
I rolled an 11.
Oh no.
711
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,160
Oh, this is a perfect time for
Mythic spice to arrive.
712
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:32,800
OK.
Well, if they can't read their
713
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:34,840
books, you can teach them about
the darkness that dwells in
714
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,120
every pony's soul.
Hi, Mythic Spice.
715
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,360
Hi Heartstrings.
You'll have to forgive our
716
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,800
arrival.
We got lost.
717
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,400
Or rather, I got a little lost
and Mythic Spice has been
718
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,720
following me for the past 15
minutes.
719
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,520
Honey bull, you're here too.
You could be a special guest
720
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,760
speaker on the topic.
Well, as I do, always teach, the
721
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:59,640
only way to combat the darkness
inside you is to embrace it.
722
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,520
Cultivate it as the inspiration
that it is.
723
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,520
That doesn't sound right.
Your patient is looking at you
724
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,720
like what the shit are you
talking?
725
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,680
About another patented Honey
Bowl lecture, as it were.
726
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:18,240
Very inspiring my friend.
I don't know enough about
727
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:23,000
therapy to dispute it.
I will say that Honey Bowl was
728
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,600
unsuccessful at cheering up
cheerily if somebody, somebody
729
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,720
else could try to do it.
But it can't be anybody who just
730
00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:32,680
tried to help cheer up cheerily
as well, because you were also
731
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:33,800
giving your.
Yeah.
732
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,960
So the two people just came in.
You could try to persuade her or
733
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,040
provide an alternate thing to
her.
734
00:39:40,240 --> 00:39:43,440
Or else you could just be like,
well, good luck, cheerily.
735
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,720
I I don't have any, I don't have
any infersuation.
736
00:39:49,720 --> 00:39:52,960
I would just be rolling this
straight D20.
737
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,800
You know what, you can make an
alertness check if you would
738
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,320
like.
To I'm so good at that help.
739
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:04,800
So I so I so I I rolled it.
OK.
740
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,080
Did you add your other dye to
it?
741
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:15,480
Yeah, hold.
On cheerily sighs.
742
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,640
Thanks for bringing the ponies
to school.
743
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,040
She puts her head in her hooves
for a second.
744
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,720
It stands up, takes a deep
breath, and goes back inside.
745
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,360
Grabs her flashlight, which she
might have given to you if you
746
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,720
would help cheer her up or
helped her in other ways, and
747
00:40:31,720 --> 00:40:35,160
begins to walk around, pointing
it at things that students are
748
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,520
supposed to be looking at in the
beret.
749
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:42,800
One day at a time, cheerily.
Yeah, yeah, it's too bad I
750
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,920
couldn't use my specialization
in cheering ponies up there.
751
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:46,760
Oh well.
I mean, you could.
752
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,640
Would you like to make a roll?
No, it seems like the moments
753
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:54,400
past now.
I kind of wish I hadn't helped
754
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,960
because I do have a thing of
acting in the spirit of honesty
755
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,120
to gain a friendship point.
And I think I could have like
756
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,280
done a like a brutal honesty
moment with Cheerily.
757
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,320
Let's, let's.
I think we've seen enough of
758
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:11,440
cheerily for darkness.
Surely you're the new 6th member
759
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,520
of the squad?
We'll leave the kids here.
760
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,160
It's fine.
Quit your job.
761
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:20,040
That's our inventory party.
Hold and secure, Charlie.
762
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:23,880
Hold and secure.
The Cutie Rock Crusaders can
763
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:24,720
handle it.
It's fine.
764
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,480
Put them in charge.
Don't supervise them.
765
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:28,920
It'll be like the paper.
It's fine that.
766
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,000
Works.
So well, that work done so well.
767
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,960
Surely might not be good at her
job actually.
768
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:40,560
So the gang is all together, You
guys are all friends with each
769
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,160
other more or less.
What would you like to do?
770
00:41:43,240 --> 00:41:46,520
Some of you have been hired to
solve the darkness problem.
771
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,560
Right.
I'm going to deputize all of you
772
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:50,920
as well, and we're going to
institute martial law first.
773
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,000
We are not going to institute
martial law.
774
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,920
We do not have the authority to
institute martial law.
775
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,560
That's why you're the good cup.
I am not a police officer and
776
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:04,040
neither are you.
Baldur leans over to
777
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,040
heartstrings and just whispers.
We could leave right now and I
778
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:11,720
don't think they'd notice.
I would I would bald the dash.
779
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,320
I've got mine say anything that.
Wouldn't be very responsible.
780
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:21,560
Heartstrings would pass along
what she heard from Snips and
781
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,000
Snails about the inventor on the
edge of town.
782
00:42:25,240 --> 00:42:27,040
So that everyone else also knows
that.
783
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:32,720
Yes, yeah, and likewise
everything that blank page heard
784
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,000
from Granny Smith as well.
Yeah, and from Mayor.
785
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,600
Mayor.
You also see going by at this
786
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:41,080
time, as you're chatting and
getting your injury, you see
787
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:45,160
that mob that Granny Smith
mentioned and one of them leads
788
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:47,600
over Good.
Who's a pony would get pulled
789
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,160
into a mob in Ponyville.
It's bulk bicep.
790
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,960
Bulk, bicep.
Yeah, it's over.
791
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,080
Let's go.
I heard that this is Widget's
792
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:57,960
fault.
He built a thing of a jig that
793
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,840
broke the sun.
Yeah, let's go.
794
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:03,400
Yeah.
See this Bob of ponies is
795
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,720
holding torches as they're going
towards the edge of time.
796
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,480
Now hold on, hold on, now hold
on.
797
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,040
How do they get those ready so
fast?
798
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:20,360
I honestly thought that was you
mythic spice at the front of the
799
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,000
mob.
Are you guys coming or what?
800
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:27,760
Oh my.
God no.
801
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,200
I don't know that it's
responsible to all of the
802
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:35,080
information necessarily.
Oh, I know a lot of information.
803
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,040
What do you want to know?
Information is woke.
804
00:43:38,240 --> 00:43:42,680
Oh yeah.
Am I the only Pegasus among us?
805
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,560
Yeah, you are, yes.
I believe so.
806
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,560
Well, both biceps of Pegasus.
He doesn't have very big wigs
807
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,480
though.
Can I extinguish their torches?
808
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,640
What skill do you think you
would like to use for that?
809
00:43:53,720 --> 00:43:56,240
Probably acrobatics.
Now you just get to fly around
810
00:43:56,240 --> 00:43:58,680
and just like, start taking out
their torches.
811
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:03,680
No, I'm going to cause a gust of
wind powerful enough to do that.
812
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,440
Yeah, I guess with Pegasus
flying is kind of all under
813
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,080
acrobatics.
Flag is a specialization of
814
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:13,760
acrobatics, so.
And does my those who know teach
815
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,640
still apply or is this the?
Like we could say it's the same
816
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:18,920
scene.
We could say it's the same scene
817
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,480
because you've spent your, your
powers, the guys.
818
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:22,040
Expected.
Yeah.
819
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:26,280
So you still, you still act as
though I'm helping, even though
820
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,360
there's no conceivable way our
streaks could be helping here.
821
00:44:31,720 --> 00:44:34,320
Immortal support.
I just need you to make me a
822
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,240
difficulty 10 acrobatic skill
test.
823
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,400
Ten, yeah.
So I get AD four and then
824
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,040
upshift it again, Yes.
Oh yeah, from the health.
825
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,360
You're helping.
That is a 17.
826
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,520
All right, I'm not going to say
you've put out every single one
827
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,480
of the torches, but you've
definitely sort of dispersed
828
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,920
this mob a little bit.
Maybe a dozen of them are still
829
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,920
going to make their way towards
their destination, but the angry
830
00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:00,680
mob of like 70 people is not
going to run at this one pony's
831
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,800
house on the edge of town.
Today we have prevented mob
832
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,480
justice.
Well, but not yet, because
833
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,280
there's still a miniature mob
headed that way.
834
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:10,760
OK.
Well, yeah.
835
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,560
We have mitigated mob justice.
We have to work a little harder.
836
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:18,320
Hey, where'd my torch go?
Oh, he's not bright, is he?
837
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:19,480
Not without a torch.
His.
838
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,760
Name is Burley.
Bicep, bulk bicep.
839
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,360
But yes, that's.
Worse.
840
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:26,680
Yeah, Burley Bicep is his
brother.
841
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:29,920
Don't you know?
Widget says he's got an advice
842
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:35,240
that causes the sun sun to rise.
And also, didn't you hear the he
843
00:45:35,240 --> 00:45:38,320
got banished outside the town
because his experiments kept
844
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,440
blowing up.
And mayor, mayor said he
845
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,480
couldn't do the experiments in
town anymore.
846
00:45:42,720 --> 00:45:46,960
So somebody told me that that
meant that he made the what?
847
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:48,680
I guess I didn't see anything
explode.
848
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:50,960
He's got a device that makes the
sunrise.
849
00:45:51,240 --> 00:45:53,640
Isn't that heresy?
Wait, yeah, I guess.
850
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,520
I guess Richard doesn't make the
sunrise.
851
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:02,560
Now, Bicep, yeah, I understand
that many things which nature
852
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:06,960
makes difficult becomes easy to
the pony who uses his brains.
853
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:12,800
I understand why things might be
a bit extra difficult for you,
854
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:17,040
but trust us, we will figure
this out.
855
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,680
Oh, can I use persuasion?
I don't think you need to roll.
856
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:25,400
I think he's ready to go.
Like he's like, OK, OK, fine.
857
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,280
Yeah, I guess so.
Those words were too
858
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:30,600
complicated, and now it's nap
time for both biceps.
859
00:46:33,240 --> 00:46:36,120
Yeah, maybe if I brought out a
treadmill I could make
860
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:40,040
electricity.
No, that might be too smart for
861
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,120
me to figure out.
Whatever.
862
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,880
I'm out here.
I'm going to go do some creatine
863
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:53,240
about this later.
Dodge drink my stupid man.
864
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:54,640
My.
Protein latte.
865
00:46:56,200 --> 00:47:01,160
I do think maybe we should go
check out the inventor's cabin
866
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:05,000
though, just in the name of
maybe preventing some violence.
867
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,720
Yeah, that sounds about right.
You turn around and just see a
868
00:47:08,720 --> 00:47:11,680
little yellow dot in the
distance, already walking toward
869
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,200
that adventure.
She, Valder, was so fucking
870
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,840
exasperated how stupid that
conversation was.
871
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:18,560
She started going.
On wait balder that.
872
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,680
Yeah, and Spice is already there
because they were.
873
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,200
They joined them all.
One step help us I guess.
874
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:30,040
Unless mythic spice is gonna
redirect the mob from inside.
875
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,400
No, no, I'll go up with them.
You go up with them.
876
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:36,120
Well, you're the first one who
sees it, but everybody else will
877
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:39,320
see it eventually.
Though mostly in shadow from the
878
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,520
lights of the few torches that
are remaining.
879
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:46,520
Widget's house sits between 2
trees shaped like Tesla coils,
880
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:50,160
with tall, thick branchless
trunks and a crown of spiky
881
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:53,600
branches resembling sparks.
It doesn't make sense, but
882
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:55,880
they're trees that look like
Tesla coils with sparks coming
883
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:57,960
out of them.
Utopiary thing.
884
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:03,280
OK, it's a gothic style home
with long pointed arches, slim
885
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,480
columns, elaborately patterned
windows, and a single tower that
886
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,440
reaches into the sky.
The mob of ponies.
887
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:13,440
Well, the group of ponies.
It's not really a Bob anymore.
888
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:17,040
The group of ponies with torches
and pitchforks already surround
889
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:23,000
the home, saying come outside,
fix the sun, come outside, fix
890
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,800
the sun.
Mythic Spice is just gaping an
891
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,840
eye at this property and has
discovered that it is her jam.
892
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,640
Yeah.
There's a mini evil scientists
893
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:35,240
castle on the edge of town.
Look, I've been waiting when
894
00:48:35,240 --> 00:48:37,840
this property comes on sale for
years.
895
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:43,360
Getting life.
It just feels like such a great
896
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,240
place to work on dead bodies.
On what?
897
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:47,760
I mean, you do work on dead
bodies, your corridor that's.
898
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,520
Yeah, like.
Maybe we could share?
899
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,520
I will say this, I'm not going
to require you to make any
900
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:56,880
additional rolls to scare off
these ponies.
901
00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:59,840
I think just like tell them get
out of here is going to work OK?
902
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,280
It's those two like gossipy
ponies.
903
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:06,720
It's like Lily and Daisy and
Rose, the annoying ones that
904
00:49:06,720 --> 00:49:09,840
like run the flower shop.
I could sing a song to cheer
905
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:11,760
them up.
But do you have a song ready or
906
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:15,960
you get a Because, Russell,
sometimes you just have songs
907
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,880
that you know, that you've like
written out dramatically.
908
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,160
I don't think that you have that
in this situation.
909
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:29,960
It's all over.
I hope you got everything off
910
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:33,680
your chest.
It's all over.
911
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:43,760
Back up your things, go home and
rest, because everyone of us is
912
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,560
going to die.
So is this really how you want
913
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:51,720
to spend your time?
It's all over.
914
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,880
We'll all go.
Just wait and see.
915
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,880
Got yourself some neat new
memories.
916
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:04,240
It's all over.
I'm counting around and counting
917
00:50:04,240 --> 00:50:11,280
3123 because everyone of us is
going to die.
918
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,400
Completely unavoidable.
Don't even try.
919
00:50:14,720 --> 00:50:18,440
Chat amongst yourself.
Just say goodbye now, just one
920
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:25,440
more time to emphasize it's all
over.
921
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,320
I used to be a pop star, so I've
always got a song in my heart,
922
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,880
even if I am frequently looking
at hearts that aren't beating.
923
00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:41,280
Yeah, instead of dispersing the
mob in like a grumbling going
924
00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:44,040
back to their homes, you can
disperse the mob and have them
925
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:45,720
be happy about it.
And they're feeling a little
926
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:49,560
cheered up and also a little
concerned because of the content
927
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,160
that was a 12.
You know what great?
928
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,880
A pretty good song.
All right, I can write a pretty
929
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:56,160
good song.
Yeah, maybe.
930
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,600
Don't write an amazing song,
write a pretty good one.
931
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,320
You didn't roll well enough for
it to be amazing.
932
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:05,120
Thank God.
Anyway, the mob has been
933
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:08,640
dispersed.
So it is so fucking off the
934
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:11,840
rails.
I I think as it disperses,
935
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:14,760
Balder just kind of like
maneuvers her way through the
936
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,160
crowd, rolls up in front of the
door like everyone else.
937
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,840
Every pony else is still like
approaching or like waiting for
938
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,840
a clearer path.
And I think up to this point
939
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,280
she's had like the same just
kind of dead eyed, tired
940
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:28,760
expression on her face.
But before knocking, she takes a
941
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,880
deep breath, closes her eyes at
when she opens them.
942
00:51:33,240 --> 00:51:36,480
Completely different pony.
Like, not literally, she has not
943
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:39,960
cast an illusion, but it's like
she has put on a sort of like
944
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,760
sales pony persona.
It almost looks like like just
945
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,080
in her expression.
And that is the point at which
946
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:47,920
she finally knocks on the door.
Honey Bowl observes with a
947
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:50,440
quarter of a smile.
Very true to the character.
948
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:54,040
Go away.
Sorry, are you a professor?
949
00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:57,840
Is it Professor widget?
Yeah, go away.
950
00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:00,440
I I don't know.
I think I broke the sun.
951
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:01,320
Go away.
Well.
952
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,000
If you broke the sun, we'd very
much like to help you in fixing
953
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:06,640
it.
It's broken.
954
00:52:08,720 --> 00:52:13,400
Knocks again.
As a fellow person of
955
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,400
intelligence, I know exactly how
to reach people like this.
956
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,480
Yeah, that's what people of
intelligence call themselves.
957
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:20,640
People of intelligence fuck.
You.
958
00:52:24,720 --> 00:52:26,800
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
959
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:32,600
No.
But professor, is it true that
960
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:35,680
frogs are reptiles?
What?
961
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:38,800
If if you say something
factually incorrect and are so
962
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,600
certain about it, it gets
somebody to come out every time.
963
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:43,560
Is it true that frogs are
reptiles?
964
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,920
Because I'm pretty certain that
frogs are reptiles.
965
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,520
I have this running bet going
with my friend you see.
966
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:55,000
The door opens.
Ah, professor, there you are.
967
00:52:55,000 --> 00:53:01,000
Inside you see Widget.
Widget is a Gray earth pony with
968
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:06,040
a messy white mane and tail.
His cutie mark is like 3 gears
969
00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,280
that are also sort of in the
shape of a lightning bolt.
970
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:12,480
He is wearing a lab coat and has
goggles on the top of his head.
971
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:14,840
Wonderful.
Works every time.
972
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,080
Wow, they're amphibians, he
says.
973
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,280
And he does open the door for
you guys because you guys are
974
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:25,040
trying to get his attention, but
he doesn't really talk to you.
975
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,160
He sort of just walks back
towards his bedroom and lays
976
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,320
back in bed.
They're both wrong.
977
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,520
They're meat.
What does the inside of his
978
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:36,480
house look like?
Inside the front door is a sort
979
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:40,600
of living room kitchen area.
There's dusty books piled over
980
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:43,840
every surface.
Random bits and bobs of hardware
981
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:47,840
like gears and screws, knobs,
fasteners are all over the
982
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:49,760
couch.
Seems like he doesn't sit on the
983
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:52,520
couch much.
Pin to the walls are diagrams of
984
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:57,720
gadgets and scribbled notes, and
there is a sort of foul smell
985
00:53:57,720 --> 00:54:02,000
coming from the kitchen, coming
from a pile of dirty dishes next
986
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:06,240
to the sink, as well as a
spoiled glass of milk next to
987
00:54:06,240 --> 00:54:09,640
it.
Jesus delicious.
988
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:14,920
I can't take this.
There's like a little library,
989
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:17,280
he would call it a library, I
would call it maybe 3
990
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:19,320
bookshelves in the corner of the
room.
991
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,080
It's like bursting full of books
and papers.
992
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,440
And there's like, there's a
little hope chest next to it as
993
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:28,240
well.
Oh wow, I love your picks of the
994
00:54:28,240 --> 00:54:30,920
milk.
Snipset almost vomits and it's
995
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:34,680
like love your house, professor.
I cannot take a dirty kitchen,
996
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:37,240
can I, in the spirit of
generosity, go and do his
997
00:54:37,240 --> 00:54:40,240
fucking dishes.
Yeah, that's, that's totally
998
00:54:40,240 --> 00:54:42,320
fine.
Yeah, that is going to be
999
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,160
helpful for him.
Do I get a friendship point?
1000
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:46,160
Oh yeah, I guess I'll get you a
friendship point.
1001
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:47,880
Yeah, absolutely.
A friendship point, yeah.
1002
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,560
Yeah, so Honey Bowl, without
saying a word, just starts
1003
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,800
gathering up the dishes and
hauling him into the kitchen,
1004
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:56,560
and you hear him clatter with
the pots and pans.
1005
00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,240
Somehow there's Mozart playing
in the background.
1006
00:54:59,240 --> 00:55:00,440
You're not sure where it's
coming from.
1007
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:05,280
Jesus.
His bedroom, however, is
1008
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:09,240
upstairs and you hear him sort
of half heartedly calm down.
1009
00:55:09,240 --> 00:55:14,200
Things don't break anything.
I am incensed, but I'm not going
1010
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:18,080
to show it.
Brother is not doing well.
1011
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:21,080
No, clearly not.
All right.
1012
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,600
Where's this sun making machine?
That was that was why Forestryx
1013
00:55:24,720 --> 00:55:27,320
was about to.
Ask where's the?
1014
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:30,320
Sun making machine.
Maybe not in so many words.
1015
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,360
Well, you're gonna have to go up
to like his his bedroom to talk
1016
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:35,160
to him.
Unless you're just.
1017
00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:37,200
Oh, he's up there in the
bedroom.
1018
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:39,240
Yes, that he's.
Got up to his bedroom.
1019
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:41,360
Yeah.
Yeah, I think Baldur is behind
1020
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,120
heartstrings immediately.
She's kind of employing con
1021
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:48,160
artist mode here to try and if
they need to charm this this
1022
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,720
pony into helping them, she's
going to do that.
1023
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,240
Our space in her head is like
wow Baldur really like gets her
1024
00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:56,600
shit together when she's talking
to other people.
1025
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:05,120
You also see that the stairs go
up to a third floor as well, but
1026
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:08,200
you're not quite up there yet.
I like this place already.
1027
00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:12,560
The door is closed.
I would like to knock on it.
1028
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:24,840
Hi, I'm sorry I broke the sun.
Please go away.
1029
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:29,360
Well, I unfortunately, I don't
think we can really do that
1030
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:32,360
necessarily.
You said you broke the sun.
1031
00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:33,800
Can I open the door?
It's not.
1032
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:37,800
It's just a little rude to talk
through the door.
1033
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:40,800
Thank you.
Opens the door A.
1034
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:45,440
Chair is pushed up against the
door to keep you from opening
1035
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:47,600
it.
Can I use?
1036
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,200
Kinesis to maneuver the chair
out.
1037
00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:53,680
Of blocking the door.
You have to be strings hard.
1038
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:55,400
Strings.
Hard strings.
1039
00:56:55,680 --> 00:57:00,040
Hard strings hard.
Strings hard strings I OK so
1040
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,600
Blaster so heartstrings is going
to open the door, but like she
1041
00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:05,720
doesn't think she's forcing it
open.
1042
00:57:05,720 --> 00:57:11,480
She's just strong.
What's that what's that broad?
1043
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,920
OK yeah cool.
I've got that was.
1044
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:19,160
Oh, that's a big.
No, that's not going to get the
1045
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:20,040
door open.
I'm sorry.
1046
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:22,080
That's all right.
Yeah.
1047
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:24,240
What's that door made of?
Wood.
1048
00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:28,360
But you know, it's heavy wood.
You weren't deliberately trying
1049
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:30,760
to push it down yet.
I'll spare you the first one of
1050
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:33,520
the stress, but yeah, because
you were just trying.
1051
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:35,160
To what do you mean stress?
Where's that?
1052
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,960
Is that damage?
Yeah, it'll count as damage, but
1053
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,640
we don't, OK, We call it stress
in this system most of the time
1054
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,440
because, you know, you're not
really, you're not really
1055
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:46,200
getting killed.
That's all.
1056
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:47,360
That's all right.
We can talk through the door.
1057
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:52,200
So you said you broke the sun.
Can you?
1058
00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,120
Maybe.
I know that this is probably
1059
00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:58,720
really overwhelming, but is
there a way that you could
1060
00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:00,880
specify a little what you mean
by that?
1061
00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:04,760
I'm not that technically savvy
so I'm afraid you'll have to
1062
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:07,680
catch me up.
I don't know.
1063
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:12,120
It's my dad's thing.
It doesn't.
1064
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:14,520
Why won't you just leave me
alone?
1065
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:16,760
I'm a failure and everybody
hates me and I can't do anything
1066
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:17,280
right.
Go away.
1067
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:19,040
Let me sleep.
Oh no.
1068
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:22,600
Well, yeah, so let us fix it.
My friend, we do not hate you.
1069
00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:26,560
On the contrary, we find your
genius impressive.
1070
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:30,760
I can't even get I can't even
get my life together.
1071
00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:36,720
My house is a mess.
I'm So what am I doing with my
1072
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:39,800
life?
Mythic Spice is holding a card
1073
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:41,560
for the Stiffs and Stones
Funeral Home.
1074
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:45,680
Why?
In case you need this later.
1075
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,840
Oh, you know what?
If you've been involved in the
1076
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:52,480
Funeral Home, you remember his
dad died a month ago.
1077
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:54,520
Oh shit.
Oh yeah.
1078
00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:58,880
OK.
It was a nasty one too.
1079
00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:02,080
No, he died quietly in his
sleep.
1080
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:04,520
Yeah, but there was blood
everywhere.
1081
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:12,120
The death was not messy, it was
the autopsy.
1082
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:15,600
Mythic spice just really fucked
it up.
1083
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:21,720
Horror podcast, I guess guys, I
can't even organize my I can't
1084
00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:23,920
even figure out how to live a
life.
1085
00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:27,440
I'm so pointless and now I broke
the.
1086
00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:30,400
Sun Well, we'd certainly like to
help you get things back on
1087
00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:32,720
track.
I'm in the kitchen doing dishes.
1088
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:34,960
There's Mozart playing.
There's a.
1089
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:38,120
Oh, you're playing music?
I actually like the idea of you
1090
00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,160
playing music.
It's like what, You know what,
1091
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,600
he's got like a Petrola, like
he's got like a record player
1092
00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:44,960
there.
You go.
1093
00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:46,760
Yeah.
So I put on Mozart.
1094
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:51,480
There's a bouquet of lavender on
the freshly cleaned counter.
1095
00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:54,360
There's coffee brewing.
I brought some eggs for
1096
00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:56,560
breakfast.
What is that music?
1097
00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:03,480
Oh, that's that's Mozart.
But what's the horse equivalent?
1098
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:08,520
I often is.
That eggs.
1099
01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,880
Eggs and bacon.
Be careful, the kitchen's a
1100
01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:16,280
mess.
He actually like, opens the door
1101
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:18,920
to come downstairs to make sure
that, like, you don't mess up.
1102
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:21,440
And he's like, what?
Yes, I'm wearing a white apron.
1103
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:23,200
You don't know where any of this
came from.
1104
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:27,320
I'd also like to point out you
can't be cooking bacon.
1105
01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:30,920
Hay bacon, that's fine.
Yeah, it's it's hay bacon.
1106
01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:35,400
Bacon, Bacon.
Smells like the real deal.
1107
01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:39,280
But being terrible has to be
harder when everyone is in a
1108
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:42,040
herbivore.
Yeah, it's it's bacon.
1109
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:43,960
It smells like the real deal.
Where'd it come from?
1110
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:44,800
There You.
Go.
1111
01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:49,600
Not that any pony would know not
have any frame of reference.
1112
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,760
For it true, I do have a
question.
1113
01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:56,200
Does Heartstrings know that his
dad died recently?
1114
01:00:56,680 --> 01:00:59,160
Yeah, not unless Mythic Spice
said anything about it.
1115
01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:01,520
Yeah.
Oh, definitely, yeah.
1116
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:04,280
Yeah.
OK.
1117
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,120
Oh, he's probably sad because
his dad died.
1118
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:12,440
That is what people do when
their parents are dead.
1119
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:17,000
Yeah.
Yes, yes it is.
1120
01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:20,040
Bald her to herself with very
alive parents.
1121
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:23,240
I'm not sure I will.
She said.
1122
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:28,840
Well, thanks for helping clean
up a little bit.
1123
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:33,960
I mean, I guess I probably
doomed the world to eternal
1124
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:36,840
night, but.
Nah, we've all been there.
1125
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:40,440
Yeah.
Statistically, probably
1126
01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:45,840
heartstrings is like, I think
maybe he he's, he's out of the
1127
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,560
room now, right?
The bedroom, you can talk to him
1128
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:50,040
if you would like or not.
Your call.
1129
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:52,840
You also, he's gone down to the
kitchen, if you would like.
1130
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:54,560
You could look around his
bedroom if you would like.
1131
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:58,400
Yeah.
I think her first instinct is to
1132
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:00,920
go talk to him.
I think that that does leave an
1133
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:03,840
opening for anyone else who
wants to Snoop to do that.
1134
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:04,960
Yes.
Exactly.
1135
01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:06,760
Definitely.
Snooping time.
1136
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:09,880
Yeah.
She can talk to him off screen
1137
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:11,760
if people want to be like poking
around.
1138
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:15,240
Well, we could get back to the
talk to him in a second, but you
1139
01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:17,720
guys could poke around the the
bedroom if you'd like.
1140
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:20,480
And I'm going to poke around the
third floor when we're done with
1141
01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:23,080
this if I can.
The third floor is his
1142
01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:25,000
laboratory.
Bedroom first.
1143
01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:28,200
Do you think I sneak in first
and you comment on it or you
1144
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,520
sneak in first and realize I
have come in after you?
1145
01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:35,080
I think the latter.
Baldo, what on earth are you
1146
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:37,840
doing?
Trying to see if this guy has
1147
01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:41,120
anything about like what he did
and how we can unbuck it.
1148
01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:43,840
Like come on, do we want, do we
want to spend all night doing
1149
01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,200
therapy with him in Honey Bowl
or do we want to go ahead and
1150
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:48,920
solve this stupid problem so we
can go back to bed?
1151
01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:53,480
I know which one you need.
Sorry, that was out of pocket.
1152
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:56,480
Let's let's look.
Yeah, Buck, you too, dude.
1153
01:02:57,320 --> 01:03:01,440
Cut 2 honey bowls serving this
guy eggs Benedict with
1154
01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:04,280
hollandaise and bacon.
The perfect way to remember your
1155
01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:04,800
father.
Jeez.
1156
01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:06,600
Oh.
My.
1157
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:10,720
God, yeah.
It's really sweet and super
1158
01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:14,000
creepy just because of who
you're who you're parroting when
1159
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:18,320
you do it.
Sprinkling herbs over top.
1160
01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:21,680
Rosemary for remembering.
I want to bet you in the room
1161
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:25,280
when you're looking in the
bedroom there are several boxes
1162
01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:27,400
that are in the corner that are
covered in dust.
1163
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:31,520
One of them has been opened
relatively recently and looks
1164
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,280
like he was tearing it apart
trying to find something.
1165
01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:38,640
Also, he has like 4 or five
journals on the desks that he
1166
01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:40,680
seems like he was looking
through trying to find
1167
01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:43,280
something.
As you look at the journals,
1168
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:46,840
they are not his own journals,
but his father's journals
1169
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:52,320
detailing various inventions.
So it's journals.
1170
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:56,560
And also a box full of seemingly
half complete inventions as
1171
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:58,840
well.
But actually, as you're looking
1172
01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:05,400
around, you see one more thing.
There is a mostly empty box that
1173
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:09,040
is shoved under the bed.
It's sticking out just a little
1174
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:13,720
bit, and inside of it is a
clearly smashed invention of
1175
01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:15,160
some sort.
Huh.
1176
01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:17,560
Put a weird thing to serve in a
box under a bed.
1177
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:20,640
I I figure there's not going to
be a label on it that says son
1178
01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:26,800
fucker 6000, but like, is there
anything in it that like is
1179
01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:28,920
there anything we can tell from
the smashed invention?
1180
01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:32,920
Look, it has a lot of gears,
metal springs and screws and
1181
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:36,240
stuff like that.
Broken shards of transparent
1182
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:39,520
rock with sparkling flecks of
orange and gold.
1183
01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:43,240
I guess I should note note not
this box, but the other boxes in
1184
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:46,120
here as you're looking around.
They're labeled Dad's stuff.
1185
01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:52,280
I could use my technology skill
to look at this smashed up son
1186
01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:55,680
fucker 3000 or whatever it was.
Yes, let's talk about that in
1187
01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:57,320
just a second.
I want to go downstairs to the
1188
01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:00,280
conversation.
I was honestly expecting mythic
1189
01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:02,800
spice to look at those boxes
labeled dad's stuff and go I
1190
01:05:02,800 --> 01:05:07,080
know how to help with this and
just cross out dad my.
1191
01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:11,800
So heartstrings, you said you
had something you wanted to say
1192
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:15,720
to widget here.
I do think probably pretty much
1193
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:19,480
every pony in town is aware that
Heartstrings lost her parents
1194
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:22,480
when she was very young.
This is also me informing the
1195
01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:25,520
audience that Heartstrings lost
her parents when she was very
1196
01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:27,720
young, so she probably.
I remember that one.
1197
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:30,440
Need to introduce the concept?
Of course you do.
1198
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:35,600
That's why we're friends.
So I think as they sort of,
1199
01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:39,240
like, make their way downstairs,
the smell of delicious cooking
1200
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:42,000
foods setting the tone for the
conversation, she says.
1201
01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:47,720
You know, I don't think anyone
is expecting you to have
1202
01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:51,000
anything together under your
circumstances.
1203
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:57,080
It can feel like you have to
pick up the slack when you're
1204
01:05:57,080 --> 01:06:01,640
left all alone, but you have the
right to not be OK.
1205
01:06:03,080 --> 01:06:08,840
Well, maybe, but now I'm
affecting everybody because, you
1206
01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:11,600
know, I made it so the sun
doesn't rise anymore.
1207
01:06:12,320 --> 01:06:16,400
That might be true, but every
pony makes mistakes.
1208
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:21,160
And let's be honest, around
here, every pony makes pretty
1209
01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:27,160
big mistakes all the time.
So much you're hardly alone in
1210
01:06:27,160 --> 01:06:30,480
this.
But I I dropped it and it it
1211
01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:35,360
shattered into pieces and now
the sun isn't ever going to rise
1212
01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:38,520
again, no.
No, no, no, Mr. Widget.
1213
01:06:38,720 --> 01:06:41,440
It's only things that we do for
ourselves that die with us.
1214
01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:44,400
Things we do for others, well,
they're beyond us.
1215
01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:51,680
OK.
I think that's comforting.
1216
01:06:52,160 --> 01:06:57,080
I'm gonna try to maybe make a
role if you think a role is
1217
01:06:57,080 --> 01:06:58,760
appropriate here.
Yeah, you can roll.
1218
01:06:58,760 --> 01:06:59,440
What do you get?
A role.
1219
01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:02,440
Can I use persuasion with
understanding on this one?
1220
01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:04,160
Yes, you can.
Yes.
1221
01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:06,320
Can I assist?
You have persuasion?
1222
01:07:06,400 --> 01:07:07,280
Yeah.
Yeah, you can assist.
1223
01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:10,280
Her, yeah.
OK so that I have a
1224
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:15,640
specialization which means I add
AD four and AD 161718.
1225
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:18,400
His living space is a little bit
cleaner.
1226
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:22,320
You guys are being very nice
about knowing that it's OK that
1227
01:07:22,320 --> 01:07:25,840
he can't quite get it done.
He does still feel bad because
1228
01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:27,840
he definitely thinks he broke
the sun.
1229
01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:32,080
But you know, he's like, OK,
you're right.
1230
01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:34,840
This isn't.
This isn't what he would have
1231
01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:38,400
wanted anyway.
Is there any possibility that
1232
01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:42,600
the sun going out and the thing
you broke are not related?
1233
01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:46,360
What?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
1234
01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:51,400
See, when I was a kid, my dad
showed me the adventure that he
1235
01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:54,480
made, which brings the sun up
every day.
1236
01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:58,480
So every night, but when I would
go to bed and I would be worried
1237
01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:02,560
that the sun wouldn't come up,
he would turn it to make sure
1238
01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:06,520
that the sun would come up.
Every morning he helps Princess
1239
01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:12,120
Celestia, and without his help,
without this device's help, the
1240
01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:15,320
sun won't come up.
But I was trying to figure out
1241
01:08:15,320 --> 01:08:18,720
how it worked because it's very
impressive, and then I dropped
1242
01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:22,080
it.
What Is there a possibility that
1243
01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:25,040
your father was just being a
very good parent, trying to
1244
01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:30,080
alleviate his child's anxiety?
I'm sorry, what?
1245
01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:34,359
Not even it has not occurred to
him ever in 1000.
1246
01:08:34,359 --> 01:08:36,520
I want to ask.
A quick question I want to
1247
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:39,600
establish a quick point of order
that we kind of breezed past
1248
01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:42,520
earlier and now we need to
establish Yeah, looking at
1249
01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,399
Widget from our perspective as
ponies live in this world and
1250
01:08:45,399 --> 01:08:50,800
can roughly gauge the age of a
person, how old in human years
1251
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:54,279
does Professor Widget seem to be
He's. 28.
1252
01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:57,600
Literally older than very Rd.
ass man.
1253
01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:03,520
That was important to note.
Older than me, older than me,
1254
01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:06,319
Nathan, the real everyone.
Older than you.
1255
01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:10,399
Yeah, literally.
But we didn't say this in our
1256
01:09:10,399 --> 01:09:13,600
introductions.
Heartstrings is pony 21 maybe?
1257
01:09:14,399 --> 01:09:17,760
Yes.
Yeah, and I I had to know
1258
01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:21,240
because I was realizing hold up.
Either way, this is sad.
1259
01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:26,880
But is it like sad or sad?
Is this like a very young man
1260
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:30,760
who is like not finished growing
up or is this a fully a grown
1261
01:09:30,760 --> 01:09:32,960
ass pony?
Yes.
1262
01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:39,040
I want to know if if the like
the thing that he's describing
1263
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:42,319
squares with my understanding of
how Celestia raises the sun.
1264
01:09:42,319 --> 01:09:46,160
But looking at my stats, I.
Celestia just raises the sun.
1265
01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:48,479
Everybody knows Celestia raises
the sun.
1266
01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:52,800
She's magic.
Yeah, that's that's about what I
1267
01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:56,000
thought.
So I I got it, yeah.
1268
01:09:56,440 --> 01:09:58,520
Yeah, go ahead, You're smarter
than me.
1269
01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:00,880
No, no, no, no.
I mean, I mean, I understood
1270
01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:03,600
what was happening there, yes.
Yeah, yeah, no, this is
1271
01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:06,480
something that the dad made to
make his kids feel better.
1272
01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:10,000
That does raise the question of
why the sun is still not up.
1273
01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:12,280
Yeah.
That just raises does raise this
1274
01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,840
question so.
Yeah, I was gonna say, this kind
1275
01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:17,840
of puts us back to square 1.
OK.
1276
01:10:18,360 --> 01:10:22,200
Wait, so are you telling me no,
we need to fix it?
1277
01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:26,080
Maybe we can fix it.
If we find my dad's notes and we
1278
01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:28,360
put everything together, we'll
be able to fix it.
1279
01:10:28,480 --> 01:10:30,160
And if we fix it, we can make
the sun go back up.
1280
01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:35,640
So.
I'm going to pull you aside hard
1281
01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:38,360
strings and I'm going to say I'd
imagine it would be very
1282
01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:41,760
therapeutic for him to find the
notes and try to fix it.
1283
01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:44,120
So why won't we leave him to do
that?
1284
01:10:44,600 --> 01:10:46,760
Well, we figure out the real
reason you.
1285
01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:54,560
Know you make a very good point
that is probably fine she's like
1286
01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:59,200
she's she's fighting down the
impulse to insert herself into
1287
01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:02,600
the situation because she finds
it relatable but.
1288
01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:05,480
Yes, well, if he and The thing
is who's.
1289
01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:07,600
Right.
He is not going to be able to
1290
01:11:07,600 --> 01:11:10,000
fix it by himself.
He's going to need help to fix
1291
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:10,880
it.
Interesting.
1292
01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:13,080
OK.
Meanwhile, back upstairs, I'm
1293
01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:15,160
going to go back upstairs to the
people that we're looking at the
1294
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:19,080
the broken device.
So this seems to be a clockwork
1295
01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:23,080
device that has like a little,
there's like a timer involved in
1296
01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:24,240
it.
And after a certain amount of
1297
01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:28,120
time it would move the
something, maybe with the
1298
01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:31,240
sparkling orange and gold like
flecks of something of the
1299
01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:35,440
transparent rocks like that got
moved around or something in
1300
01:11:35,440 --> 01:11:37,680
this little device.
OK.
1301
01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:40,640
Yeah.
I'll fix it.
1302
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:43,760
Oh, you're just going to fix it
right now?
1303
01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:46,080
You're going to fix it.
And the spirit of laughter.
1304
01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:49,440
OK.
What?
1305
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:55,720
Just straight trying to fix it
right now is ADC 20 science
1306
01:11:55,720 --> 01:11:59,480
check.
If we work with other things to
1307
01:11:59,480 --> 01:12:02,960
try to put it together, we might
be able to to fix it in another
1308
01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:05,200
way, but you can just try to fix
it right away.
1309
01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,360
OK, DC 20 probably.
I can't get that.
1310
01:12:08,480 --> 01:12:10,920
So I'll, I'll just keep it in my
back pocket for the moment.
1311
01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:12,720
OK, no roll.
See if you create.
1312
01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:18,720
I'll come down with this box of
stuff that levitating it with
1313
01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:20,040
telekinesis because I'm a
Unicorn.
1314
01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:23,680
Yeah, well, we can try and fix
this, but I don't even know what
1315
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:26,360
it looks like.
In the meantime, can I poke
1316
01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:27,960
about their laboratory a little
bit?
1317
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:30,760
Yeah, absolutely.
You know, I'm just curious.
1318
01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:32,520
Looks like a Frankenstein
laboratory.
1319
01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:36,840
Yeah, that doesn't shock me.
Anything of note in here or is
1320
01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:40,120
it just funky science stuff?
You probably.
1321
01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:43,040
Can't identify anything unless
you're all be a technology or a
1322
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:46,320
science check.
I do have technology so.
1323
01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:47,960
OK bro will be a technology
check.
1324
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:50,800
Oh Christ, the dice roller hates
me today.
1325
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:52,920
That's an 8 total.
Woof.
1326
01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:56,680
Nope.
Yeah, I didn't think so.
1327
01:12:57,360 --> 01:12:59,640
Well, I hope the solution to the
mystery isn't up here.
1328
01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:04,000
Some sort of fake horn?
Can you?
1329
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:07,880
Well, if you want to help me fix
it, I guess we could try to fix
1330
01:13:07,880 --> 01:13:10,640
it.
I have my dad's old notes, but
1331
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:14,000
it's hard to.
We need to like go into town and
1332
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:18,600
buy more supplies maybe.
Or I don't have everything we
1333
01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:22,760
need here and we need some
Sunstone and maybe somebody who
1334
01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:27,240
also knows about technology.
I don't know.
1335
01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:31,720
I would say maybe you could find
Starlight Glimmer, but she
1336
01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:34,040
doesn't exist yet.
At this point in the continuity.
1337
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:37,280
There's a guy, Doctor Hooves,
who might be able to help out.
1338
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:39,560
I don't know.
Nobody has the time for that.
1339
01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:43,080
I forgot about Doctor.
I forgot about the actual Doctor
1340
01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:46,680
Who Verity in this show.
Yeah, nobody has time for that.
1341
01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:49,200
What's your idea then?
I'm just making a time pun.
1342
01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:52,240
Oh God damn it, God damn.
It.
1343
01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:53,320
I don't know how you missed
that.
1344
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:57,120
Damn.
Here's what I want to do if you
1345
01:13:57,120 --> 01:14:00,040
guys want to help him fix this,
even if it's mostly just going
1346
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:03,000
to make him feel better.
Each of you should tell me what
1347
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:04,960
you want to do to help him fix
it.
1348
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:08,080
As he is saying, he feels like
he doesn't have all the supplies
1349
01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:10,600
he needs because they're really
expensive to replace.
1350
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:14,440
He feels that he doesn't, he
can't read his dad's old
1351
01:14:14,440 --> 01:14:17,160
handwriting.
And also just, you know, he has
1352
01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:18,760
technology skill.
But if you helped him with the
1353
01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:20,160
technology skill, that that
would help us.
1354
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,680
Well, any other ideas that might
exist is also fine.
1355
01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:26,160
But I'm saying give me an idea
of how you would help with this.
1356
01:14:26,600 --> 01:14:29,600
I could probably read cursive
with my culture.
1357
01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:35,200
And interesting, I never thought
of that as culture.
1358
01:14:36,120 --> 01:14:39,240
Fucking sure.
Yeah, no, that makes perfect
1359
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:41,720
sense to me.
Kids these days.
1360
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:46,840
He doesn't know how to read
cursive this 28 year old.
1361
01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:49,960
When this is all I'm just going
to leave my business card
1362
01:14:49,960 --> 01:14:53,280
inconspicuously on his desk
somewhere.
1363
01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:56,680
On top of mine.
On top of yours, yes.
1364
01:14:56,920 --> 01:15:00,640
OK, well it sounds like one
people want to help decode the
1365
01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:02,160
diagrams.
Who wants to make the role and
1366
01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:04,840
who's helping?
Oh, I will help by holding
1367
01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:07,320
things because this was an earth
pony and I have magic.
1368
01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:10,560
OK.
I think I'm just literally still
1369
01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:14,600
being a a pony flashlight
considering the situation.
1370
01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:17,440
You know what?
That is helpful and you're
1371
01:15:17,440 --> 01:15:20,080
saying the thing that you are
helping is just because he is an
1372
01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:23,200
earth pony, you are just
assisting by just lifting things
1373
01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:27,400
up for telekinesis.
Yeah, I'm holding 4 things for
1374
01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:29,800
him.
So Balderdash is sort of just
1375
01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:31,680
providing the power of the sun
in the palm of your hand.
1376
01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:37,480
OK, great Heartstrings.
Is there anything that you could
1377
01:15:37,480 --> 01:15:40,240
think of that you would like to
do to help repair this if you
1378
01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:42,480
would like to?
You said he would.
1379
01:15:42,480 --> 01:15:45,560
He didn't feel like he had all
the right tools and he didn't
1380
01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:49,880
have the money to get new ones.
Oh yeah, I guess that is totally
1381
01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,120
your thing, isn't it?
Yeah, yeah.
1382
01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:55,320
I can I got.
All this in here.
1383
01:15:55,320 --> 01:15:58,280
I can help with building.
You can get the stuff from town.
1384
01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:00,880
We've got a flashlight, we've
got someone who can read
1385
01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:02,800
cursive.
We can do this.
1386
01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:05,760
Blank page, Where did your
accent go?
1387
01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:08,640
Sorry I'm just checking how my
wealth perk works.
1388
01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:10,840
It's like a really long perk for
some reason.
1389
01:16:12,360 --> 01:16:14,200
You can.
Once per game session you can
1390
01:16:14,200 --> 01:16:15,720
automatically pass any skill.
Yeah.
1391
01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:18,360
Is this a skill test that?
Could be bought, you know, I was
1392
01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:19,840
gonna make you could just
achieve it.
1393
01:16:19,840 --> 01:16:21,720
I could say you can get it right
away with your wealth.
1394
01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:24,920
Yeah.
Great money is sometimes does
1395
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:26,760
impact to make the world go
around.
1396
01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:29,640
OK, Honey Bowl.
Doctor Electrode.
1397
01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:33,560
Yes, honey Bowl, if you would
like to make a culture check to
1398
01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:36,160
read cursive.
Yeah, I just did.
1399
01:16:36,160 --> 01:16:38,600
And Russell can confirm I ruled
another 19.
1400
01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:39,480
Yep.
Great.
1401
01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:42,720
Yeah, you're actually able to
read the diagrams.
1402
01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:45,680
What do they say there?
Are instructions on how to make
1403
01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:47,200
it okay, Sir?
Yeah.
1404
01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,840
And blank page you were, what
were you doing?
1405
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:51,680
Blank page.
I was going to assist with the
1406
01:16:51,680 --> 01:16:54,080
technology tech.
OK, that's great.
1407
01:16:54,440 --> 01:16:56,320
So he.
Actually, can I?
1408
01:16:56,480 --> 01:16:58,760
Can I take a friendship point
for generosity behavior?
1409
01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:00,480
Absolutely.
Get a friendship point.
1410
01:17:00,480 --> 01:17:01,240
Perfect.
Yeah.
1411
01:17:01,480 --> 01:17:05,640
Mythic, spicier holding stuff,
balderdash your lighting stuff.
1412
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:08,160
I think what we're going to do
is actually we're going to have
1413
01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:12,240
widget role to fix it, but we'll
give it a boost, Yeah, so.
1414
01:17:12,480 --> 01:17:14,960
If he fucks this up that's going
to be so sad.
1415
01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:17,400
The rate of mind boggling
insanity in corners really went
1416
01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:18,920
down when they kicked earth
boating this out of the
1417
01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:20,360
profession.
I say holding stuff.
1418
01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:24,320
He would have failed without
your shift because he rolled at
1419
01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:27,320
11, but he got a 10 because of
your shift.
1420
01:17:27,680 --> 01:17:30,440
So wow, you have to give your
assistant.
1421
01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:36,160
So he puts the thing together.
One of the the main thing that
1422
01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:40,640
you provided heartstrings as
well is you got a pretty rock to
1423
01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:43,800
put in there that's specifically
called a Sunstone.
1424
01:17:44,080 --> 01:17:47,360
And he's like perfect.
We did all right.
1425
01:17:47,400 --> 01:17:50,240
We fixed Equestria.
He inserts the battery into the
1426
01:17:50,240 --> 01:17:52,560
sphere with a soft click.
And by the way, this is all
1427
01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:55,920
taking place in the laboratory.
It begins to hum with activity.
1428
01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:59,440
The gears turn of the low whir.
The arm attached to the sphere
1429
01:17:59,440 --> 01:18:01,400
wiggles and jiggles and starts
to move.
1430
01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,640
He smiles, and he's crying a
little bit.
1431
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:08,360
Well, not full on crying, but
his eyes are brimming with tears
1432
01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:11,160
of relief and you know,
remembering his dad.
1433
01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:15,040
Balderdash uncomfortably looks
away because this is an outward
1434
01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:18,440
display of vulnerable emotion
and she doesn't like that.
1435
01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:24,360
And it's fixed.
But to maybe not your surprise.
1436
01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:27,480
But to his surprise, there is no
dramatic shift in daylight.
1437
01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:30,680
The black of the night continues
to cloak Equestria in darkness.
1438
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:36,760
However, the device itself
begins to jerk suddenly and
1439
01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:41,200
starts rattling as the arm that
sort of functioned as a clock
1440
01:18:41,440 --> 01:18:45,240
begins to spin faster and
faster, and then all of a sudden
1441
01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:48,840
it locks into position, pointing
S like a compass.
1442
01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:52,840
Oh, it's a compass.
What?
1443
01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:55,280
This is even stranger than I
expected.
1444
01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:58,160
It looks like the sun.
The sun is right where it's
1445
01:18:58,160 --> 01:19:01,200
always been.
The sun must be in the sky.
1446
01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:03,880
I don't think, Princess.
Oh, Dad.
1447
01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:08,040
We might not have fixed the sun,
but I think we made something
1448
01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:10,600
beautiful here today.
We may not have fixed the sun,
1449
01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:15,600
but we have fixed hoof on
shoulder the sun it's credits
1450
01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:17,440
are.
Wait, hang on.
1451
01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:20,640
I have questions.
That is so good.
1452
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:24,800
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
So 'cause if I and he, he runs
1453
01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:28,280
over to some other devices and
he starts figuring out and doing
1454
01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:29,520
some stuff.
Wait a minute, wait a minute,
1455
01:19:29,520 --> 01:19:30,920
wait a minute.
OK, OK.
1456
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:35,640
The sun is still in the sky.
The sun is shining right now.
1457
01:19:35,840 --> 01:19:39,040
I never even look to look at my
sun, Ometer, I just assumed it
1458
01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:41,720
was broken.
But but the light and energy
1459
01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:46,040
from the sun is being diverted
away somewhere.
1460
01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:48,680
It's sucking all of the energy
from the sun.
1461
01:19:48,680 --> 01:19:52,360
And also, have you all been
feeling a little less
1462
01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:55,200
enthusiastic today?
Nope.
1463
01:19:55,360 --> 01:19:59,200
It's just, it almost feel like
today is like kind of weird and
1464
01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:01,200
grimmer than normal in
Ponyville.
1465
01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:03,560
It's like sort of a weird vibe
that we're getting we.
1466
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:05,840
Haven't really noticed much I.
Just assumed that was.
1467
01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:09,520
I just assumed.
That was because of the sun not
1468
01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:13,240
being in the sky.
Maybe, maybe, but like, even if
1469
01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:15,920
the sun is in the sky, there
shouldn't be mobs of people
1470
01:20:15,920 --> 01:20:18,800
trying to.
I think someone's trying to suck
1471
01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:24,080
out all of the love from
Ponyville again.
1472
01:20:25,200 --> 01:20:31,640
OK, my device is pointing to
where the sucker is.
1473
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:34,240
We should go there and.
Sorry.
1474
01:20:34,520 --> 01:20:39,680
And turn off the sucker.
We'll get that sucker.
1475
01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:43,280
Yeah.
He sucked his last.
1476
01:20:44,400 --> 01:20:46,160
We we got to call it something
else.
1477
01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:51,760
No, it's too late, Heartstrings.
We're going after this sucker.
1478
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:55,480
Come my friends, the game is a
hook.
1479
01:20:55,480 --> 01:20:57,880
Once he's done sucking the love,
he's going to have to suck
1480
01:20:57,880 --> 01:21:00,280
something else, and we can't
have that happen all.
1481
01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:03,640
Right, we're going to need to go
through the ever free forest to
1482
01:21:03,640 --> 01:21:06,360
get there.
Everybody be careful.
1483
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:10,840
Sorry, no, the what Boulder
definitely like raises up when
1484
01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:12,800
he says that.
Oh, what?
1485
01:21:12,800 --> 01:21:15,400
You've never taken a nightly
stroll through the Ewa Free
1486
01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:17,800
Forest?
Come Balda, this will be fun
1487
01:21:17,800 --> 01:21:21,520
all.
Right as you go outside you see
1488
01:21:21,520 --> 01:21:25,920
that there's like 5 ponies who
are saying hey widget, why'd you
1489
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:28,840
break the sun?
Widget didn't break the sun and.
1490
01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:30,960
Said I didn't break the sun.
Get out of here.
1491
01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:33,720
Widget's dad broke the sun.
Go home.
1492
01:21:34,120 --> 01:21:36,760
To.
Other people, yeah.
1493
01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:40,040
Didn't we just go through this?
There was a song about and
1494
01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:43,960
everything.
It was a good song, not amazing,
1495
01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:46,040
but good.
Heed it's words or they'll
1496
01:21:46,040 --> 01:21:48,200
happen to you.
This is to show that Widget
1497
01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:50,680
could stand up for himself.
He's like, no, no, it's I didn't
1498
01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:52,600
break the sun, but we're going
to fix it right now.
1499
01:21:53,440 --> 01:21:58,280
And he runs off like at full
speed into the ever free forest
1500
01:21:58,600 --> 01:21:59,480
and if.
You don't.
1501
01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:06,560
And if you've somehow gotten
this far into this episode
1502
01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:09,800
without knowing about the
Everfree Forest, the Everfree
1503
01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:14,320
Forest is the part of Equestria
where everything is all crazy
1504
01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:16,880
and wild, the weather isn't
controlled and all of that.
1505
01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:19,800
There's like dangerous timber
wolves and stuff that live
1506
01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:23,840
there.
Timber Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
1507
01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:26,240
There you.
Go.
1508
01:22:26,440 --> 01:22:30,040
MLP Mozart.
So what's his full speed again?
1509
01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:34,800
He's going at a normal earth
pony speed, which is probably
1510
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:37,800
less fast than you as a Pegasus,
right?
1511
01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:40,800
My my ground is 15, my aerial is
45.
1512
01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:45,800
OK, so you can actually sort of
keep up with yeah cuz his is 45
1513
01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:46,520
as a yeah.
Oh.
1514
01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:50,000
There you go.
And you head into the ever free
1515
01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:59,800
forest.
Thanks for listening, Happy
1516
01:22:59,800 --> 01:23:02,080
April Fools, and if you enjoyed
this, you might enjoy The
1517
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:04,920
Friendship Factory featuring
Kane and Low Place's regular
1518
01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:07,360
Theo.
If you didn't enjoy this, our
1519
01:23:07,360 --> 01:23:10,040
regular episodes will be on the
same schedule as always, though
1520
01:23:10,040 --> 01:23:12,720
I guess I need to figure out
when to put out the second
1521
01:23:12,720 --> 01:23:17,600
episode of this.
Daniel was our jockey.
1522
01:23:17,600 --> 01:23:19,480
Kane played Heartstrings the
earth pony.
1523
01:23:19,480 --> 01:23:21,360
Theo played Balderdash the
Unicorn.
1524
01:23:21,440 --> 01:23:25,200
Renee played Honey Bowl, Lectra
the Pegasus, Nathan played Blanc
1525
01:23:25,280 --> 01:23:28,800
Page the earth pony, and Russell
mixed mastered in music the
1526
01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:32,240
episode in addition to playing
the Unicorn Mythic Spice.
1527
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:35,520
I will not be taking notes on
the song because deadlines and
1528
01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:39,360
toddlers are a terrifying mix.
We've got a 24 hour live stream
1529
01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:42,560
coming up April 17th that we are
twice as unprepared for as last
1530
01:23:42,560 --> 01:23:45,440
year, a Discord where you can
find out more about that, and a
1531
01:23:45,440 --> 01:23:47,840
Patreon where you can listen to
stuff that doesn't make it into
1532
01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:50,560
the main feed over at
patreon.com/dread Tails.
1533
01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:53,600
Again, thanks for listening and
until next episode.
1534
01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:59,440
I will forsake of time.
I thought there's I was
1535
01:23:59,440 --> 01:24:02,000
considering maybe having
confused Timberwolves attack
1536
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:05,560
you, but I think we'll we'll
skip that and.
1537
01:24:06,160 --> 01:24:07,800
You unless we want to make it a
2 parter.
1538
01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:10,240
No, no, but it.
Could it be easier if we just
1539
01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:14,560
split it down the middle here?
I mean, do we want we?
1540
01:24:14,560 --> 01:24:17,960
Could I feel like if we're going
to now is the time like and let
1541
01:24:18,440 --> 01:24:22,400
I I think the people at home
would prefer 2 decent halves
1542
01:24:22,400 --> 01:24:26,440
than one like hole that falls
apart in the last like 30
1543
01:24:26,440 --> 01:24:29,200
minutes to an hour.
Yeah, I wanna do a Timberwolf
1544
01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:34,120
attack.
I mean, I just, I want everybody
1545
01:24:34,120 --> 01:24:37,520
to know that I was ready to end
this in one session.
1546
01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:39,800
I was absolutely ready to end
this in one session.
1547
01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:43,120
People from my podcast are going
to be like, oh, what a surprise.
1548
01:24:43,120 --> 01:24:44,720
Dado couldn't keep it all in one
session.
1549
01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:47,400
Again, I'm gonna have you know
that I was going to have it
1550
01:24:47,400 --> 01:24:49,760
ready for one session and we
couldn't conclude it in one
1551
01:24:49,760 --> 01:24:50,800
session.
We.
1552
01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:56,840
Are lying and we know it.
It's OK Dan, I will know that
1553
01:24:56,840 --> 01:25:00,360
Theo bullied you into this.
Theo's done it to me plenty of
1554
01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:01,720
times.
Love you man.
1555
01:25:04,120 --> 01:25:06,680
Dang all our plans to never play
this again after this.
1556
01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:08,240
They're falling apart in real
time.
1557
01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:11,160
The.
Game we could I'll.
1558
01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:13,960
Wait.
Until after, What were you going
1559
01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:14,880
to say?
What were you going to say?
1560
01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:17,280
I was going to say, the game's
not that bad.
1561
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:21,680
No, it's fun, I think.
I think what Russell Russell is
1562
01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:24,720
saying is we clearly do want to
play more of this like we're
1563
01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:26,400
having a great time.
It's yeah.
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:04,320
Daniel's Dread Tales is a show
for grown-ups.
2
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:08,280
It may contain adult language
and adult themes.
3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,520
Please check the episode
description for content
4
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:18,760
warnings.
Last time on Eternal Line.
5
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:33,320
This is Daniel's Dread Tales.
There we go.
6
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,480
Did you say we clop at the
minute mark?
7
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:38,040
I said oh shit, let me try
again.
8
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,560
You can't say that.
You cannot say that.
9
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,600
There's no we're.
Not when's that episode.
10
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,360
For the plot, we're not, there
are no jars, we're there's
11
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:49,360
nothing.
OK.
12
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:06,520
Daniel's dread Tails.
So if we're all recording,
13
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,200
everybody's got their line,
everybody's got their solid
14
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,200
spike.
I could I?
15
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,720
Could say.
This a lot from saying it.
16
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:22,160
Hello ladies and gentle Colts
and NB Corns.
17
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,880
Welcome to Daniel's delightful
Tales.
18
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,680
And also Tales is spelled like a
thing a pony has this time too.
19
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:40,000
And this week we're going to be
playing the My Little Pony
20
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,000
tabletop RPG.
It's going to be a good time.
21
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,000
We're going to be a bunch of
colorful cartoon horses, and
22
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,560
it's not going to be too
horrible.
23
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,600
If you want horror and death and
murder, please tune in any other
24
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,400
week.
We also have some special guests
25
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,000
joining us this week, but we'll
find out about them in just a
26
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,800
moment.
Let's go around and I'll
27
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,240
introduce ourselves.
I'll go first, just real quick.
28
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,759
My name's Daniel Fernandez.
He him, and I'm going to be your
29
00:02:08,759 --> 00:02:10,960
game Master.
There's no special name for the
30
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,520
game Master in My Little Pony.
I'm going to be your Celestia.
31
00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:20,480
Stable boy.
No, no, I think Dan has at least
32
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:26,160
earned a stable man.
But I I am pretty stable I I
33
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,200
solid income I could pay my rent
bro.
34
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:30,400
You.
Didn't.
35
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,760
Have to throw me under the bus
like that.
36
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,280
OK, Christ.
OK, I wasn't trying to attack.
37
00:02:38,920 --> 00:02:40,440
Hi, everybody.
I'm Nathan.
38
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,680
OK.
Hey, Nathan, you introduced
39
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:43,200
yourself.
Go.
40
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,840
Yeah, I'm Nathan pronouns he
him.
41
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,200
I'm a regular here on on this
lovely podcast and I will be
42
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:56,880
playing the earth pony character
Blank Page, who is a detective
43
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,440
and his cutie mark is a
magnifying glass because he's a
44
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:05,040
detective and I didn't consider
what color he would be before
45
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,720
this.
I guess I've just pictured him
46
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,520
as red this whole time.
So he's red and you know, he's
47
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,360
got the deer stalker cap.
You know he's a cartoon pony
48
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:17,720
detective.
Now deer stalker spelled DEER or
49
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,440
DEAR.
I think it has to be DEAR
50
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,280
because that other otherwise it
would imply that they do hunt
51
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,400
deer in this universe.
This one, you're just hunting
52
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,440
like somebody who was dear to
you.
53
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,680
Yeah, but.
When you're stalking someone
54
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,760
dear to you, what hat do you
want to wear?
55
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,920
That sort of fedora.
I'm the element of kindness.
56
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,720
Everyone is dear to me.
Well, there you go.
57
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,800
No, I was picturing it more like
a love letter.
58
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:48,760
Dear stalker.
I heard, I mean, I've heard a
59
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,480
lot of voices, but Renee, tell
the people about yourself and
60
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,280
your pony.
Which one am I again?
61
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,720
All right, Yes, hello.
I am Renee.
62
00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,280
They sometimes she pronouns.
I don't know.
63
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,360
Anyway, I will be playing doctor
Honey bowl electrod.
64
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,760
I don't think I'm legally
allowed to say on this episode
65
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:14,760
that a pony is hot, so I am not
going to say that, Renee.
66
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,279
Come on the show and we'll let
you say that there's no.
67
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,839
Rules against him.
You're allowed to say the pony's
68
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,720
hot.
I would rather say that Doctor
69
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:28,920
Electrod is one of those ponies
that is going to have kids
70
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,720
discover something about
themselves later on in life as
71
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,120
they as they look back on this
episode of.
72
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:41,640
He is a light tan almost Peach
colored Pegasus with Hazel
73
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,160
blonde short mane, same color
eyes.
74
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,840
He is incredibly smartly dressed
tweed three piece silver mother
75
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:51,760
of Pearl cufflinks and a magic
taipan.
76
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,160
And his Cologne smells like wild
Heather and dark honey.
77
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,360
OK.
And he is a psychiatrist?
78
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,480
What's your cutie Mark?
His cutie mark is a red book.
79
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,200
I'm very hopeful that somebody,
somebody will get the reference.
80
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,080
What's your element of harmony?
Generosity.
81
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,480
I very much enjoy cooking for my
friends.
82
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,080
Oh boy.
I'm sorry.
83
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,880
Oh.
Let's get our last regular voice
84
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,040
you may have heard on the show
introduced here.
85
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,160
Hello, I'm Russell, a corporate
guy from this frenemy forge.
86
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,120
Also, I'm on Daniel's dread
tails, right?
87
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,600
I will be playing Mythic Spice
once more.
88
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:32,680
Who are is a lovely cinnamon
orange colored Unicorn.
89
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,240
Element is laughter, of course.
My cutie mark is a spilled salt
90
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,440
shaker.
Oh, and I'm a Unicorn God.
91
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,880
Damn it.
Thou you may have heard their
92
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,200
voices.
You've definitely heard their
93
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,680
voices already.
You can't keep us contained.
94
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,280
All right, we'll have Theo go
first because you're the one who
95
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:54,600
just talked from the Friendship
Factory podcast.
96
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,640
Theo, tell us about your pony
and yourself.
97
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,400
Hello, yes, my name is Theodore
Monk.
98
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,680
Pronounce he him, and this week
I'm doing my running gag on the
99
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,480
wrong podcast.
Specifically I am playing Balder
100
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,600
Dash, a Unicorn con mare.
In the element of honesty of
101
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,640
this party, I was about to say
element of honesty because I was
102
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:17,480
just reading my notes verbatim,
but yeah, she is, as I said, a
103
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,040
con mare.
We have decided.
104
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,080
I will figure out how that
meshes with being the element of
105
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,600
honesty in terms of what sort of
pony she is.
106
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,080
I have decided because I am not
the most visually a cute person.
107
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,320
I kept it pretty
straightforward.
108
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,480
She is a light blue Unicorn.
Her mane and tail are like
109
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,000
darker blue with almost sort of
purplish with a streak of golden
110
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,480
yellow going throughout it.
The main style, something I
111
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:45,560
would call anime Bob cut and her
cutie mark is a very sort of
112
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,360
generic looking green yellow
flare of light.
113
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,080
It's vagueness definitely
doesn't play into her con artist
114
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:51,920
tendencies.
I.
115
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,440
Mean it takes one to no one
What?
116
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,880
The fuck you say to me?
Kane, tell us about yourself and
117
00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,840
your pony.
Hi, my name is Kane.
118
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:03,800
My pronouns are they and it I am
super jazzed to be here today.
119
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,640
I'm going to be I'm I forgot to
do the the friendship factory
120
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:08,680
this week.
My job is bit.
121
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,040
I was going to do the same bit
as Theo.
122
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,440
I've already failed this.
I'm going to be playing
123
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,360
heartstrings, who is an earth
pony.
124
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,760
She has like a reddish kind of
almost pink coat and an orange
125
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,480
mane and like freckles.
She's very cute.
126
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:27,680
Her Kitty Mark is like a heart
with like baby bottle in it.
127
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:32,760
Her special talent is child care
and she works as a general
128
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,200
purpose nanny slash babysitter
in Ponyville.
129
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,160
Would she describe it as full
care, given the idiosyncrasies
130
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,200
of this universe?
She would, but I won't.
131
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,680
And what is your element of
harmony?
132
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,080
Heartstrings element is also
generosity.
133
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,200
We're a double generous group.
So we're a very generous group.
134
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,840
She also most of us are not
talking about perks but it's
135
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,120
notable she also has the wealth
perk.
136
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,280
Definitely normal circumstances.
I was wondering if you were
137
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,840
going to take that, but yes,
because we talked about your
138
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,520
pony being rich, you remember to
take the wealth perk.
139
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,760
I love it.
OK, OK, well, your character
140
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,080
sheets are all a little bit more
complicated that, but we don't
141
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,520
need to talk about everybody's
scores and backgrounds and all
142
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,200
that crap.
So let's get into things.
143
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:25,080
It is a typical morning in
Ponyville.
144
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,040
This takes place in Ponyville,
by the way.
145
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,000
That's about their place.
It's not Manhattan or something
146
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,919
like that.
And the birds are singing.
147
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,159
Young Colts are delivering the
latest copy of the Ponyville
148
00:08:36,159 --> 00:08:38,679
Chronicle.
People are packing up their
149
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,520
carts to go to the market.
The sun isn't quite up yet, but
150
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,000
they're they're all getting to
work.
151
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,680
The owls are tucking into their
hollows to sleep.
152
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,480
That's what happens every day in
Ponyville.
153
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,680
But today in Ponyville is a
little bit different.
154
00:08:53,680 --> 00:08:58,040
Because you see, normally the
sun begins to rise around this
155
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,720
time.
And today it doesn't.
156
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:07,960
No morning dawns on Equestria.
Darkness envelops the land, and
157
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:14,120
the citizens of Ponyville panic.
With no light, ponies collide
158
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,080
into each other in the middle of
the street, Flying pegasi are
159
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,520
crashing into bushes, Farmers
and artisans are like spilling
160
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,240
all their goods that they're
supposed to deliver to the
161
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,520
market.
Mayor.
162
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,480
Mayor calls out from their
window, trying to keep everybody
163
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,040
calm, but nobody can hear above
the noise.
164
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:35,040
Ponyville is a mess.
Also, the sun hasn't risen.
165
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,280
Are the street lights like on a
fucking timer that they just
166
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,680
like turned off but the sun
wasn't up yet?
167
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,840
Look, they're very they they got
their routine in Ponyville.
168
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,640
Everybody's doing their routine
and they're all expecting the
169
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:50,800
sun to rise.
And then it did.
170
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:56,200
And now chaos in the streets.
My question for you is, we'll go
171
00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,840
around and I want you to tell me
real quick, what are you doing
172
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,000
in the morning?
Maybe you wake up this early
173
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,080
around sunrise, or maybe you
will be woken up by a cart
174
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,960
running into another cart or
something like that near your
175
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,040
place.
Just give me a quick snippet of
176
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,640
what your character is doing
because I need to get you all
177
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,160
out into the darkness to try to
deal with the things that are
178
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,080
going on.
Oh, I suppose I should also
179
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,000
note, you hear maybe one or two
people running in the streets
180
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,760
saying, where's Twilight?
Isn't she supposed to solve this
181
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:32,000
sort of thing?
And then somebody else says, I
182
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,160
think she's in the Crystal
Empire.
183
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,320
Yeah.
Is that to ask if this was like
184
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,240
a Ponyville timeline where like
the main 6 have been a thing or
185
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,760
they haven't been a thing yet or
they just don't exist or they
186
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,600
leave?
No, it's it's clearly the
187
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,240
timeline with people in it.
Oh, we're doing Equestria Girls.
188
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:49,440
Got it, got it, got it.
No, no.
189
00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:52,000
No, we're not doing well.
Equestria Girls exist in an
190
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,840
alternate universe.
You just have to step through
191
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,000
the magic mirror.
But we're not doing that right
192
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,760
now.
We don't need to go to Cancer.
193
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,880
Lot High.
Oh, I will turn away from the
194
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,520
magic mirror then.
OK, so anybody, if you have an
195
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,160
idea of what your character
might be doing, let me know.
196
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,800
We're going to go around, tell
me what you're doing.
197
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,480
So I want to volunteer earlier
that I don't in case someone
198
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,600
like Heartstrings or someone
else wants to come get me.
199
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,000
I think Balderdash is such a
disaster that she is like true
200
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,520
to the stereotype of like almost
a Kristen Bell type character.
201
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,280
There's all the disasters
happening outside and she, like,
202
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,520
wakes up hearing, like, a car to
scratch another part and then
203
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,400
just immediately goes back to
sleep and, like, pulls the cover
204
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:30,880
over her head.
OK?
205
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,480
Like there's an empty bag of
chips spilling like crumbs out
206
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:34,920
onto the floor nearby.
Love.
207
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,760
It perfect.
OK, well I guess this will be a
208
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,120
very easy adventure for you if
you remain adventure.
209
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,000
I mean I will join, I just
wanted to establish.
210
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:46,880
No, it's totally fine.
I love it.
211
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:47,720
I love it.
I love.
212
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,920
It no, I mean this is your out.
All right.
213
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,080
Yeah, See ya.
I think, I think since
214
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,320
Heartstrings was invoked, I kind
of have an idea.
215
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,800
I think maybe one of her many,
like various small babysitting
216
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:08,120
gigs is that one of the kids
that she cares for, she's
217
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,720
responsible for getting them
awake into school on time.
218
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,480
I don't know if in Ponyville
kids also have to be up and at
219
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,720
school at a very ridiculously
early hour, but that makes.
220
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,800
You have to go see cheerily at
some point, yeah.
221
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:26,600
Yeah, so and I think she is
struggling because little kids
222
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,880
don't function well when the sun
doesn't go that time that it's
223
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,000
supposed to go, Yes.
So I think she's desperately
224
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,480
trying to keep, like, a very,
very sleepy little kid.
225
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,640
Or Fuller Philly, I suppose, on
schedule.
226
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,240
Well, it's just pitch black
outside, OK.
227
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,960
And then if no one else goes to
get balderdash, I'm sure she'll
228
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,440
pick up the slack.
I can have her drag herself out
229
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,520
of bed if everyone else has.
Everyone else has their own
230
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,320
thing to do and doesn't want to
cater to me.
231
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:59,120
The protagonist of the.
Here's a question balderdash.
232
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,840
If you're this much of a mess,
are you in therapy by any
233
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:07,240
chance?
Oh my God, I want to propose
234
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,800
something to you, Renee.
Go ahead.
235
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,120
We establish that Balderdash is
such a shitty con artist because
236
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,480
she has a conscience and so
she's constantly broke.
237
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:19,320
What if, like, Honey Bowl
insisted on giving her therapy?
238
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,640
Like saw like like.
The pro bono.
239
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,520
He who shall not be named style
saw her as someone he could
240
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,680
like, manipulate into being a
better person or better pony.
241
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,800
Who says anything about
manipulate?
242
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,280
I'm doing a pro bono, of course,
Yes.
243
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:37,160
Of course, very, very.
Night out of us very generous I.
244
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:38,600
Think it would be, really.
Yeah.
245
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,800
I think the answer is yes if you
agree to the idea that like it
246
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,960
was him insisting on her coming
to therapy.
247
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,160
I love it.
Renee is completely on board
248
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,880
with it.
Doctor Lectra is standing by his
249
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:56,120
window, second story, drinking a
very aromatic cup of dark
250
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:00,320
roaster Arabica espresso and
looking at all the chaos with no
251
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,560
motion visible on his chiseled
face.
252
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:07,880
In a few minutes, he puts the
cup down, gets dressed and goes
253
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,320
to find either one of his
patients.
254
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,280
The other of his patients is
busy marshalling together a
255
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,480
street gang very inspired by Mad
Max, saying that this is clearly
256
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:21,000
the end of the world.
Oh boy, I think I might need to
257
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,920
find you first.
I'm not.
258
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,680
Experienced with therapy, is
this good?
259
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,480
Was that a joke, Mythic spice
that you're putting together a
260
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,120
street gig for the end of the
world?
261
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,200
This is just something that's
happening off in the background.
262
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,480
Oh, it's like Pinky's doing
something stupid in the
263
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,120
background.
Exactly.
264
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,480
OK, you know what, I'm actually
curious what will happen with
265
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,600
Mythic Spice, so I'm just going
to let her go at it for a bit
266
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,600
longer while I go and find
Alderdash.
267
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,880
We've strapped tires and spikes
and stuff to a carriage.
268
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,920
Spike.
Spike went to the Crystal
269
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,000
Empire.
He's not here.
270
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,800
Oh, so I guess it's just metal
protrusions then.
271
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,480
OK, yes.
Yeah, you're marshalling
272
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,880
together, people.
You see a honey bowl just
273
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,200
gliding overhead, just looking
at you.
274
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,240
I wave tearfully.
I give a reserved.
275
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,000
Nod, and then I go back to
bolting things onto a carriage.
276
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,160
If you can even see each other
in the dark.
277
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,360
Wait, we don't have dark vision?
No, you don't have dark vision.
278
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,600
Do we have flashlights?
You don't have a flashlight.
279
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,800
In fact, if you would like to
see well in the darkness, I need
280
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:32,000
you to make a difficulty 15
alertness skill test to operate.
281
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,640
I am pulling up right now to
prove if Ponyville does or does
282
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,800
not have lampposts.
OK, I don't see.
283
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,280
Anything.
I don't think it does.
284
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,760
I don't think it does either.
I was doing some research.
285
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,120
Mayor Mayor once again pocketing
Public Utilities funds.
286
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,480
Well Dang, I only have AG4IN
alertness.
287
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,360
Yeah, you roll D20 plus the D4.
That's how the the dice roll.
288
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,880
You always roll D20 and then you
add your skill.
289
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,560
So this will be our, if you want
to, this could be our first
290
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:57,960
roll.
This could be sort of a sample
291
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,320
roll.
Failing will not be too deadly.
292
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,200
You might run into somebody as
you're flying through the air,
293
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,280
definitely, but.
I rolled the 14 so while I see
294
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,200
something up there, I'm just
waving to be friendly.
295
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,240
Errol the 19.
OK, there you go.
296
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:15,000
You see Mythic Spice getting up
to whatever nonsense they're
297
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:19,400
getting up to.
You also see that there is a
298
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:25,240
little Pegasus stuck in a tree
nearby saying help some pony
299
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,480
please help me.
Maybe it's because I haven't
300
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,280
watched this show in 10 years,
but still hearing where somebody
301
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,520
say stuff like every pony does
put a mild fight or flight in
302
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,880
me.
Buddy, you're gonna get ready.
303
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,720
Oh boy.
You can just feel your brain
304
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,480
starting to rot.
Let's do this, but before we do
305
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,320
any of that, Nathan, what is
Blank Page doing?
306
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:52,160
He hears a bit of raucous steps
out of like his house, looks
307
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:56,240
outside, immediately closes the
door you hear shuffling around,
308
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,640
and then comes back out with an
old timey like gas Lantern.
309
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,120
Because you've given me the
perfect opportunity to go the
310
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,680
full Sherlock Holmes aesthetic,
and I will use it.
311
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,079
OK, I'll let you.
Yeah, sure.
312
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:09,160
You got your gas Lantern.
The game is afoot.
313
00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:12,960
From you it would sound like.
Go over a foot.
314
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,560
Because you would have to be
carrying the gas Lantern in your
315
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,760
mouth.
OK, so I have to have this in my
316
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,280
mouth and do the southern accent
at the same time.
317
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,119
Just a moment, no?
No, you don't need.
318
00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:25,800
To the guns are hot.
There you go.
319
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:31,400
Not bad, not bad, Pretty good.
The key is to just bite down on
320
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,520
my hand while I'm doing it and
it works.
321
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,640
As you step outside you see
chaos in the streets.
322
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:44,440
Standing in the middle of the
street is an old green pony with
323
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,600
white hair.
You maybe recognize her as
324
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:51,240
Granny Smith saying Oh my gosh
darn, what's every pony hopping
325
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,760
and hollering as she is trying
to cross the street and is
326
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,320
having difficulty?
My God.
327
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,560
OK, step one, help this lady
cross the street.
328
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,600
Step 2.
I figure out what's going on.
329
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,240
Let's start with step one.
All right, what sort of skill do
330
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,680
you want to use to help this
lady cross the street that's
331
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,480
full of people who don't know
where they're going?
332
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,600
You do not need to make an
awareness check to see however,
333
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:13,960
because you established you have
a Lantern.
334
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,120
Actually, because this is about
like navigating through a
335
00:18:17,120 --> 00:18:21,400
situation, could I use alertness
as the scale for this?
336
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,000
2C Things is not going to
actually get Granny Smith across
337
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,240
the road.
OK.
338
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,400
I do have to actually.
Yeah, yeah, right.
339
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,120
You could do maybe a Braun or
Finesse tech, or you can even
340
00:18:32,120 --> 00:18:35,200
try to persuade her to cross the
road herself and not be afraid I
341
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,920
guess.
I'm I'm almost OK at finesse.
342
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,280
I'll do that.
What's the difficulty?
343
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:46,920
It's like difficulty 10.
All right, rolled a 12 without
344
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,160
even adding my bonus die from my
skills so.
345
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,040
OK, that's great.
Let me help you across, ma'am.
346
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,560
These seem to be dark days, if
you pardon the expression.
347
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,840
Where did the gosh darn sun go?
What Darnay should happen to it?
348
00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:05,680
That is an excellent question
and I will be trying to find the
349
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,440
answer.
What I want you to do, you're a
350
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,520
detective, right?
You're a detective.
351
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,560
I am.
All right, I had been saving up
352
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:16,560
all my bits for, well, a
surgery, it doesn't matter, but
353
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:21,400
I want to hire you to find what
happened to the sun and wear
354
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,160
that angry Stampede that almost
ran me over when they were
355
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,760
running towards San for free.
There he goes, young and seen a
356
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,840
good talking to I tell you what,
and she gives you a a bag of
357
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,520
several bits.
I am crazy.
358
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,880
Definitely giving these back to
her by when this is over, She
359
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,400
said.
This was for a surgery.
360
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:46,000
Got to get that hip replaced.
It's crazy that this universe
361
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,960
has magic but no universal
healthcare.
362
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,000
I was about to say yeah,
healthcare in Ponyville sucks
363
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,200
apparently.
Rainbow Dash is still paying off
364
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,400
those few days in the hospital.
This feels like a good moment
365
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:02,000
for Mythic Spice to appear.
OK, the street gang is what they
366
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,480
were crossing the street in
front of.
367
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,040
We were all waiting, politely of
course, but Mythic Spice sees
368
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,400
Granny Smith hand off these bits
and old people money that should
369
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,480
be in my funeral home's pockets.
Jesus.
370
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,000
Oh.
My God.
371
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,560
Mythic spice.
I'm going to need you to tone it
372
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:23,480
down to several degrees.
This situation calls for calm.
373
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:29,320
Calm, calm.
Got 2 honey bowl knocking on
374
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:48,440
Balderdash's door very politely.
When she finally opens the door,
375
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,840
I think she has the thing
Twilight sometimes has in the
376
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,280
show when like she's navigating
the dark, like the big sort of
377
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,120
like glowy bit at the end of her
horn.
378
00:20:55,120 --> 00:20:57,040
She's just like, God what is it
dude?
379
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,760
Do you know what time it is?
I think that's another part of
380
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,440
why Doctor Electrod went to find
balderdash in the first place.
381
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,440
Yeah, you're gonna, but it's
like that to being a flashlight.
382
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,840
That OK would be really funny if
the only reason Balder is like
383
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,640
gang pressed into helping on
this adventures because she's
384
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,360
the only one who can.
Fuck, that's not true.
385
00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:18,480
We're friends.
We're.
386
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:23,640
Friends.
Yeah, Rudolph and Santa, we're
387
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,760
friends.
Jesus.
388
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,720
I think it's like everyone else
wants to go and fix this problem
389
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,440
and she's like, I'd like to stay
at home.
390
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,080
And they're like, no, you're
coming with us.
391
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,520
You're the only one who can
function as a light.
392
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,880
Honey bow goes well.
There seems to be some commotion
393
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,840
in the street.
I just wanted to check on you.
394
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,800
Yeah, Doc, I'm, I'm doing just
fine, thank you.
395
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,960
And she's already like, trying
to close the door, like.
396
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,320
Very slowly.
I just want to establish one
397
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:59,960
more time there is a little
Philly Unicorn in a tree yelling
398
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,120
some pony.
Please help me.
399
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,440
First of all, you said Pegasus.
Second of all, I heard you
400
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,040
perfectly well.
Yeah, they're not going
401
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:08,000
anywhere.
I know.
402
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,880
I just, I just wanted to make
that pony show up again.
403
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,520
I know you heard it.
I'm really scared.
404
00:22:14,120 --> 00:22:15,840
OK.
Yeah, I think with that, Boulder
405
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,080
does stop closing the door.
I think she actually, I think
406
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,480
she stops, starts to close it
again and then like the Philly
407
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,840
once again, like starts like
calling for help.
408
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:28,360
And then she finally rolls her
eyes, opens the doors, and like,
409
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,960
trots past Honey Bowl toward
wherever like that fucking tree
410
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,640
is presumably like, keep
conversing with him along the
411
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,560
way.
I think it is our duty as
412
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,800
citizens of Equestria to assist
in any way we can.
413
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,560
You said duty, she says that she
I know you're going to make me
414
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,200
roll for this stand, but I think
she is going to try and use like
415
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,640
rudimentary Unicorn telekinesis
to get the little Philly down.
416
00:22:52,120 --> 00:22:53,880
OK.
What do you get a role for that?
417
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,320
I don't have any specific spells
that work for this, but I think
418
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,840
I do just straight up have yeah,
telekinesis.
419
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,720
You could use your telekinesis,
you could use your magic.
420
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,200
You could also use like finesse
to like try to control like
421
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,200
bringing them down.
Suppose you could also like
422
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,800
bring over a ladder and climb
up.
423
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:10,880
Or I mean, maybe you don't even
need to do it.
424
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,560
Maybe Honey Bowl could fly up
there and help him get out of
425
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,000
the tree and you could just like
the way.
426
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,680
I I was going to say I.
Will observe for now.
427
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:19,480
OK.
All right.
428
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,320
Observe OK.
You got this homie.
429
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,120
I think I am going to use
telekinesis.
430
00:23:26,120 --> 00:23:28,600
I think depending on how tall
you imagine this tree, we may be
431
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,560
fudging it because it does say
that I can maneuver any object
432
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,840
from about 10 feet away, but
whatever.
433
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:35,200
There aren't feet in this
universe.
434
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,080
I don't think it matters.
That's hooves it says.
435
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,440
I use smarts set of strength to
move it and any skill test to
436
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,680
manipulate it uses alertness
instead of my door.
437
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,760
Bronze, right?
OK, thank you for checking that.
438
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,000
I forgot that that's how that
worked.
439
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,640
I have already forgotten how
anything works in this game.
440
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,880
What do you need me to?
Roll alertness.
441
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,720
So that'll be you.
Roll AD 20 and you add the die
442
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,160
that you have for alertness.
What?
443
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,120
What do you have for alert?
It looks like I have AD 4.
444
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,800
OK, so you roll D20 and AD 4 and
add them together.
445
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,920
Fuck me, that is A9.
I almost flew into a windmill
446
00:24:10,120 --> 00:24:11,960
and now I'm here and I don't
know how to get down because I
447
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,240
can't leave the mob and it's
like really dark.
448
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,160
This is so funny, help me
please.
449
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,320
Maybe this isn't what you're
going for, but can I make a
450
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,400
suggestion for Alec that role
manifests?
451
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,360
How does it look?
I do pull her off the branch,
452
00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:26,160
but I accidentally drop her on
my head.
453
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,960
Can I catch her in the air?
Yeah, difficulty 8 Acrobatics
454
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:36,160
flag check to catch her.
OK, I get a edge on action skill
455
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,160
tests as a Pegasus when it
involves acrobatics.
456
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,680
Yes, so would edge means you
consider yourself to have a one
457
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,160
die higher for your bone to die?
Perfect, huh?
458
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,960
I rolled another 19.
Very nice.
459
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:49,760
OK.
God damn you easily catch her.
460
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,400
Yes, very graciously, gracefully
and graciously, I suppose.
461
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,560
Yeah, this was an act of
benevolence.
462
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,040
Golly, Mr. You're.
You're so nice.
463
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,600
And.
And you too, I guess.
464
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,840
Yeah.
My name's Cotton Cloudy and I'm
465
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,240
trying to go to school, but I
don't even know how to get to
466
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,480
school.
Do I know where the children's
467
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,080
school is?
Yeah, there's like 1 school it's
468
00:25:16,120 --> 00:25:17,920
on.
I always imagined it's kind of
469
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,640
on the edge of town.
You don't see a lot of houses
470
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,480
around it.
That makes sense to me.
471
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,040
Also, they run through a forest
while they sing a song.
472
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,560
If they're going to it, you're
in a much later episode, but
473
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,640
whatever.
I think this may be where the
474
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,320
the button gets pressed that I
was alluding to earlier that I
475
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,400
think Balder's first instinct is
when, like the little girl is
476
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,320
saying to Honey was like, I need
help getting to school.
477
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,640
She's like, all right, cool, you
can handle this, see you later.
478
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,360
But then like however the
characters involved pointed out
479
00:25:42,360 --> 00:25:44,800
realize, oh, they won't be able
to see where they're going
480
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:46,280
unless I come with them.
Yes.
481
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,520
Unless there's a crowd of
children she can follow.
482
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,040
There is not actually.
Maybe somebody specialized in
483
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,160
child care?
Yes, that is somebody
484
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:56,480
specialized in child care.
I was.
485
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,920
Actually going to have you guys
meet her at the school is kind
486
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:02,560
of the thing that I was leaning
towards there, yeah.
487
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,440
Come on, let's get you to
school.
488
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,840
I'm a corona adult, why am I
waking up on time for school
489
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:08,720
all?
Right.
490
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:11,240
Fair.
Nod.
491
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:16,200
Heartstrings, yes.
So you are bringing your charge
492
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:23,360
to school and as you are going
along it is dark but you know
493
00:26:23,360 --> 00:26:27,040
the way even in the dark.
But all of a sudden jumping out
494
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,920
in the trees it's a vampire
fruit bat.
495
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:34,840
The fuck?
Oh wait no, Oh no.
496
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:39,520
God damn it, it snips and snails
dressed as vampire fruit bats.
497
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,840
How did they get this in so so
little time?
498
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,160
Did they have this ready?
They're old nightmare night
499
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:55,320
costumes.
That's you boys.
500
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,520
Wow.
Very talented.
501
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:04,920
Never, never do that again.
We got you, We got you.
502
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,080
You got me.
You got me really bad.
503
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:14,120
Do you want to try to like teach
them a lesson or anything like
504
00:27:14,120 --> 00:27:17,360
that?
Or or you could be scared.
505
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,120
Either 1 is fine, I don't care.
I think my ability to do
506
00:27:20,120 --> 00:27:22,680
something is somewhat limited by
it, like I'm not the boss of
507
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,720
them.
But this is true, OK.
508
00:27:25,120 --> 00:27:27,960
Heartstrings just goes cold and
it's like get me a switch.
509
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:35,320
Unless you're going to do like
intimidation or I guess Braun,
510
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,520
but no, we're not going to beat.
Up.
511
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,640
No, I don't.
I don't think heartstrings is
512
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,120
that kind of person.
I do think, I think she, I, I
513
00:27:41,120 --> 00:27:44,880
think she's like, you know, I
have a very strong and powerful
514
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,120
heart.
But if you do that to the wrong
515
00:27:46,120 --> 00:27:48,160
pony, you could really hurt
them.
516
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,760
So I'd I'd be careful about
that.
517
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,800
If you'd like, you can make a
persuasion test.
518
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:58,000
My persuasion's pretty good.
I do have a specialization in
519
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,800
understanding.
Is there any chance that that
520
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:02,720
could apply here?
Not really.
521
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,520
Nope.
Yeah, you're that's fair enough.
522
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,120
OK, just normal style then.
Well, that's 22O.
523
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,080
OK.
This is my best stat.
524
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,640
Go to childcare I guess, OK.
Oh fuck right, this is also a
525
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,160
childcare role.
So we didn't even factor in that
526
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,720
you would get a bonus because
it's childcare.
527
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,000
Yeah, maybe.
Yeah, my special talents is in
528
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,880
childcare, which gives me an
upshift on any action, so it's
529
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,640
actually a higher role than
that, but I'm not going to
530
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:27,640
bother.
OK.
531
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,880
Oh, yeah, I guess that was kind
of mean.
532
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,480
It was his idea.
Oh, OK.
533
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,520
And they sort of take it off
their costumes.
534
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:42,280
And I guess should we go to
school then?
535
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,960
Or probably is school even
happening today?
536
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,600
You know, I haven't heard
anything to suggest that it
537
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,400
isn't.
So the worst things that happens
538
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,120
is we all go and they send you
home and you have a day off.
539
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,360
A day off.
I go boy, fuck you.
540
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,240
What have you done?
Well, I guess it would be a
541
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,240
night off considering there's no
son.
542
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,040
She's got a child here, she's
not immune, so making.
543
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:10,920
Mistakes.
It's like saying treat around a
544
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,400
dog.
That Snips who says that and
545
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:19,280
runs towards the school and
Stale says do you know why the
546
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:24,720
sun's not here?
You know, I don't, and I know
547
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,840
that can be a little scary, but
I'm sure there are some very,
548
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,720
very smart ponies working their
hardest to find out why.
549
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:37,320
Well, I there's that inventor,
he's somebody, said The inventor
550
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,680
who lives on the edge of town is
the reason the sun didn't go up.
551
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,640
I saw an angry mob going towards
his house.
552
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:52,800
Is that so?
Yeah, well, bye, bye.
553
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,880
I've done my exposition, so my
role here is finished.
554
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,000
He runs after snips.
They are chewing bubble gums so
555
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,200
this might end up causing a a
problem.
556
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:09,480
But God, of course.
I think everybody sort of, well,
557
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,160
I guess.
Pony excuse you.
558
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,200
I was going to say Every Pony,
but I guess not Blank Page and
559
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:18,280
Mythic Spice.
Although make it through the
560
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,240
schoolhouse.
Somehow, Blank Page has been
561
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:26,080
roped into a gathering outside
Mayor Mayor's office, and Mythic
562
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,840
Mice is shouting Who knows,
booty.
563
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,960
Bell.
And waiting for people to chant
564
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,840
mythic spice or mayor and mayor.
Really, we're trying to figure
565
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,400
out what the peoples are feeling
here.
566
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,600
The polls are pretty rudimentary
in booty film.
567
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,960
Like 6 different genres of show
are happening across our human
568
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,920
right now.
That's My Little Pony, baby.
569
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:56,400
From some of the minds behind
Daniel's Dread tails comes a new
570
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,360
type of horror podcast that I
invented, that I'm calling the
571
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,240
audio drama, and I invented it
and nobody else does it.
572
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:07,280
The Mcmangus Archives.
We're going to do a spooky times
573
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,000
play for your year.
Holes like AQ tip.
574
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,960
It's scary, like a scary Q-tip
for your ears.
575
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,520
The Mcmangus Archives.
You remember how there were
576
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,600
there was there used to be radio
plays?
577
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,400
It's like that, but it lives on
your phone now and it's scary.
578
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:30,680
Real scary.
The Mick Magnus No, I'm reading
579
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:36,520
this wrong.
The Mick Mang Mick Mangus
580
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:40,120
archives.
The Mick Mangus Archives.
581
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,240
Is there a hole in your heart
that only.
582
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,760
Mcmangus Archives.
Can fill Does fantasy heroism
583
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,040
make you yawn?
Do good roles keep getting in
584
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,480
the way of interesting stories?
Mcmangus Archives It's.
585
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,880
The show for you?
Coming this scary season to your
586
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:01,160
phone not in AU two way but in a
that's how we listen to podcasts
587
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,080
way anyway.
It's a new story and little
588
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:09,280
places continuity, the Mcmangus
archives and that I do a kissy
589
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:16,560
face at the camera.
Yeah, a little bit.
590
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,800
We figure out Mayor, Mayor is
still technically in charge, and
591
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,360
Mythic Spice calms down the
street gang and says so weren't
592
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,320
we going to do something?
Well, I Mythic Spice, I am
593
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:38,040
officially deputizing you to be
the coroner for The Sun, but
594
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,920
hopefully the sun's not actually
dead.
595
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,320
Well, I am pretty good at
figuring out why stuff stays
596
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:49,760
down.
Yeah, Jesus, you and Blake Page,
597
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,240
you don't want to solve things
right?
598
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,280
It is true.
Well, the mayor of Ponyville
599
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,880
would be very grateful if you
did this for the town.
600
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,920
I'll bet she would Granny Smith.
Granny Smith went to the market.
601
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:02,200
She's gone now.
It's fun.
602
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,360
OK.
This is mayor, mayor, mayor,
603
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:05,960
mayor saying this to you.
Of course.
604
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,440
Yes.
Well, we'll do our best.
605
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:08,040
Mayor.
Mayor.
606
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,600
She also didn't offer any money
but.
607
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,200
I'm I'm not getting paid for
this one, am I?
608
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,320
I guess you never get paid for
the apocalypses, you know,
609
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:23,200
because like.
We don't need to say that a word
610
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,000
around here.
It's fine.
611
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,000
Everything's fine.
Everything's fine, Everything's
612
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,720
fine.
Please tell everybody that
613
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,520
everything's fine.
Ma'am, do you need a Xanax?
614
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,680
I thought recall was the word
we're not supposed to say around
615
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:38,000
you.
And she looks back out to the
616
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,280
the assembled citizens who are
outside her office, also
617
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:42,840
demanding things.
It says.
618
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,480
And don't worry citizens,
everything will be fine.
619
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:53,360
And somewhere, filthy rich is
plotting his plan to run from.
620
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,920
There, Jesus Christ, at what
point do me and Honey Bowl get
621
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,240
to the schoolhouse?
I don't know you.
622
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,120
You're there.
You're at the schoolhouse.
623
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:04,880
It's fine.
Everybody's at the schoolhouse.
624
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,400
Wow, almost everybody.
I think we got lost blank page I
625
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,080
think.
You got lost.
626
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,440
Let's litter around the
schoolyard until someone tells
627
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,560
us where we should go.
I think it might make more sense
628
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,440
for us 3 to go to the mayor's
house because we have no
629
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,159
business being here actually.
You're escorting the child to
630
00:34:24,159 --> 00:34:26,920
the school.
Yeah, yeah, they've done that.
631
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:28,960
Yeah, every.
Let's just have everybody go to
632
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:30,560
the school so we can get get
through it quicker.
633
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,880
Also, because there's one more
thing at the school, you get to
634
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,760
the school.
There are no Phillies or Colts
635
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,080
inside.
But you do see Miss Cheerily
636
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:46,199
sitting on the front porch of
the school saying, oh, hello,
637
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,080
we're supposed to have class
this morning, but none of the
638
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,840
foals are here.
Well, from what I can see you
639
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:57,880
have at least 2.
Oh oh it's so good to see you 2
640
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,120
go inside.
I guess we are having class
641
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:08,320
today.
Go read the next chapter in your
642
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:09,920
books.
Sniffs and sails.
643
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,040
Just look back at heartstrings.
You fucked us.
644
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,640
Heartstrings, you fucked us.
Yeah.
645
00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:20,720
We'll never forget about this.
I honestly thought Snips and
646
00:35:20,720 --> 00:35:23,920
Snails was 1 pony no?
Snips and Snails were two
647
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,840
different ponies.
OK, so you have. 3 ponies,
648
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,600
technically.
Yeah, there are 4 ponies sitting
649
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,800
in there.
Yeah, par strings waits for all
650
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,560
of the Foals and Phillies to be
out of ear shot and then she
651
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,120
goes.
I am so sorry, Miss Julie.
652
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,240
No, it's fine.
I just how am I supposed to
653
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:43,160
teach in the dark?
I'm not prepared for this.
654
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,440
I I don't know if I'm a very
good teacher.
655
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,840
Do you do you not have any
candles, Miss Shirley?
656
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:53,520
I actually have a flashlight,
but one flashlight is not going
657
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,760
to be enough for all of the
children to be able to read
658
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,720
their books.
Do you have a projector?
659
00:35:58,040 --> 00:35:59,920
Does your question I have
protectors?
660
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,120
I don't think we.
No, definitely do, because they
661
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,440
watch the fucking short film.
They watch the short.
662
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:05,960
Film how to do they do have
protectors.
663
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,120
They slurp up all the water to
Cloudsdale well.
664
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,320
There you go.
Yeah, but they don't have one in
665
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,480
the school.
Right into the school, yeah.
666
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,920
Underfunded.
Madam, I think in these
667
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:23,360
circumstances your primary duty
is to keep these children safe.
668
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,080
Heartstrings nods.
A school A school should be the
669
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:28,840
safest place in the city, is it
not?
670
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:32,240
Yes, yes, you're right, it
should be.
671
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,080
Maybe I just hope I can keep
them safe.
672
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,040
We're going to need to make some
sort of social check to inspire
673
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:39,680
her, or some other check I
guess.
674
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:46,720
Oh, Persuasion, Yeah.
Can I help with this in any way?
675
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,080
You can.
Friendship circle you.
676
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,600
Help people.
You can do a friendship circle.
677
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:57,360
I could or I could just, I could
use generosity of spirit.
678
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,280
I'm not sure if that's the time
to use this.
679
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,680
I could step in with in the
spirit of honesty as well.
680
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,080
We do have a few and I would
gain a friendship point from
681
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,440
that.
Lend assistance When multiple
682
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,920
ponies work together on a single
task, 1 pony takes the lead and
683
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:13,840
everybody else helps.
The leader is the one who makes
684
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,320
the role for the helpers.
Leading assistance is considered
685
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,840
a standard action, and each
helper gives a plus one shift to
686
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:24,080
the roller's role.
My persuasion gets AD 6.
687
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,320
Well, so you start with AD 6 and
for everybody who helps, they
688
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:30,760
have to have at least AD two in
the skill that they are helping
689
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,360
with.
And this is.
690
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:33,520
I do.
Persuasion.
691
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,840
Persuasion.
I have AD 4IN persuasion.
692
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,480
I also have AD 4IN persuasion
and I'm gonna use a charge of
693
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,960
those who know teach which gives
the benefits of my help for the
694
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,000
rest of the scene slash
encounter instead of just the
695
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,080
skill test.
Nice, great.
696
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,720
So what do I get?
Well, so how many people are
697
00:37:49,720 --> 00:37:51,160
helping here?
There's three of us total.
698
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,160
Two of us are helping, I think.
I think the other two are.
699
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,720
Still, So you're gonna roll AD
20 plus your What's your
700
00:37:56,720 --> 00:37:58,560
persuasion diet?
6.
701
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,000
So you're gonna upgrade it twice
to a 12?
702
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,120
Nice.
No, you're gonna shit.
703
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:06,320
Persuade.
This better at.
704
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:10,080
All this might be a. 10A little
10 Hey, we're figuring out the
705
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,800
mechanics.
Yeah, it's fine.
706
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,920
This is also why I wanted to do
these low stakes rolls to make
707
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,360
sure I remember how everything
worked.
708
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,960
What's the difficulty?
The difficulty is 14.
709
00:38:22,720 --> 00:38:24,440
I unfortunately rolled like
garbage.
710
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,320
I rolled an 11.
Oh no.
711
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,160
Oh, this is a perfect time for
Mythic spice to arrive.
712
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:32,800
OK.
Well, if they can't read their
713
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:34,840
books, you can teach them about
the darkness that dwells in
714
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,120
every pony's soul.
Hi, Mythic Spice.
715
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,360
Hi Heartstrings.
You'll have to forgive our
716
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,800
arrival.
We got lost.
717
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,400
Or rather, I got a little lost
and Mythic Spice has been
718
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,720
following me for the past 15
minutes.
719
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,520
Honey bull, you're here too.
You could be a special guest
720
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,760
speaker on the topic.
Well, as I do, always teach, the
721
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:59,640
only way to combat the darkness
inside you is to embrace it.
722
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,520
Cultivate it as the inspiration
that it is.
723
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,520
That doesn't sound right.
Your patient is looking at you
724
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,720
like what the shit are you
talking?
725
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,680
About another patented Honey
Bowl lecture, as it were.
726
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:18,240
Very inspiring my friend.
I don't know enough about
727
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:23,000
therapy to dispute it.
I will say that Honey Bowl was
728
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,600
unsuccessful at cheering up
cheerily if somebody, somebody
729
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,720
else could try to do it.
But it can't be anybody who just
730
00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:32,680
tried to help cheer up cheerily
as well, because you were also
731
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:33,800
giving your.
Yeah.
732
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,960
So the two people just came in.
You could try to persuade her or
733
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,040
provide an alternate thing to
her.
734
00:39:40,240 --> 00:39:43,440
Or else you could just be like,
well, good luck, cheerily.
735
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,720
I I don't have any, I don't have
any infersuation.
736
00:39:49,720 --> 00:39:52,960
I would just be rolling this
straight D20.
737
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,800
You know what, you can make an
alertness check if you would
738
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,320
like.
To I'm so good at that help.
739
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:04,800
So I so I so I I rolled it.
OK.
740
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,080
Did you add your other dye to
it?
741
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:15,480
Yeah, hold.
On cheerily sighs.
742
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,640
Thanks for bringing the ponies
to school.
743
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,040
She puts her head in her hooves
for a second.
744
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,720
It stands up, takes a deep
breath, and goes back inside.
745
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,360
Grabs her flashlight, which she
might have given to you if you
746
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,720
would help cheer her up or
helped her in other ways, and
747
00:40:31,720 --> 00:40:35,160
begins to walk around, pointing
it at things that students are
748
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,520
supposed to be looking at in the
beret.
749
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:42,800
One day at a time, cheerily.
Yeah, yeah, it's too bad I
750
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,920
couldn't use my specialization
in cheering ponies up there.
751
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:46,760
Oh well.
I mean, you could.
752
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,640
Would you like to make a roll?
No, it seems like the moments
753
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:54,400
past now.
I kind of wish I hadn't helped
754
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,960
because I do have a thing of
acting in the spirit of honesty
755
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,120
to gain a friendship point.
And I think I could have like
756
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,280
done a like a brutal honesty
moment with Cheerily.
757
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,320
Let's, let's.
I think we've seen enough of
758
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:11,440
cheerily for darkness.
Surely you're the new 6th member
759
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,520
of the squad?
We'll leave the kids here.
760
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,160
It's fine.
Quit your job.
761
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:20,040
That's our inventory party.
Hold and secure, Charlie.
762
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:23,880
Hold and secure.
The Cutie Rock Crusaders can
763
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:24,720
handle it.
It's fine.
764
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,480
Put them in charge.
Don't supervise them.
765
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:28,920
It'll be like the paper.
It's fine that.
766
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,000
Works.
So well, that work done so well.
767
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,960
Surely might not be good at her
job actually.
768
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:40,560
So the gang is all together, You
guys are all friends with each
769
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,160
other more or less.
What would you like to do?
770
00:41:43,240 --> 00:41:46,520
Some of you have been hired to
solve the darkness problem.
771
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,560
Right.
I'm going to deputize all of you
772
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:50,920
as well, and we're going to
institute martial law first.
773
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,000
We are not going to institute
martial law.
774
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,920
We do not have the authority to
institute martial law.
775
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,560
That's why you're the good cup.
I am not a police officer and
776
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:04,040
neither are you.
Baldur leans over to
777
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,040
heartstrings and just whispers.
We could leave right now and I
778
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:11,720
don't think they'd notice.
I would I would bald the dash.
779
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,320
I've got mine say anything that.
Wouldn't be very responsible.
780
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:21,560
Heartstrings would pass along
what she heard from Snips and
781
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,000
Snails about the inventor on the
edge of town.
782
00:42:25,240 --> 00:42:27,040
So that everyone else also knows
that.
783
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:32,720
Yes, yeah, and likewise
everything that blank page heard
784
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,000
from Granny Smith as well.
Yeah, and from Mayor.
785
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,600
Mayor.
You also see going by at this
786
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:41,080
time, as you're chatting and
getting your injury, you see
787
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:45,160
that mob that Granny Smith
mentioned and one of them leads
788
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:47,600
over Good.
Who's a pony would get pulled
789
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,160
into a mob in Ponyville.
It's bulk bicep.
790
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,960
Bulk, bicep.
Yeah, it's over.
791
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,080
Let's go.
I heard that this is Widget's
792
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:57,960
fault.
He built a thing of a jig that
793
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,840
broke the sun.
Yeah, let's go.
794
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:03,400
Yeah.
See this Bob of ponies is
795
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,720
holding torches as they're going
towards the edge of time.
796
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,480
Now hold on, hold on, now hold
on.
797
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,040
How do they get those ready so
fast?
798
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:20,360
I honestly thought that was you
mythic spice at the front of the
799
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,000
mob.
Are you guys coming or what?
800
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:27,760
Oh my.
God no.
801
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,200
I don't know that it's
responsible to all of the
802
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:35,080
information necessarily.
Oh, I know a lot of information.
803
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,040
What do you want to know?
Information is woke.
804
00:43:38,240 --> 00:43:42,680
Oh yeah.
Am I the only Pegasus among us?
805
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,560
Yeah, you are, yes.
I believe so.
806
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,560
Well, both biceps of Pegasus.
He doesn't have very big wigs
807
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,480
though.
Can I extinguish their torches?
808
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,640
What skill do you think you
would like to use for that?
809
00:43:53,720 --> 00:43:56,240
Probably acrobatics.
Now you just get to fly around
810
00:43:56,240 --> 00:43:58,680
and just like, start taking out
their torches.
811
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:03,680
No, I'm going to cause a gust of
wind powerful enough to do that.
812
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,440
Yeah, I guess with Pegasus
flying is kind of all under
813
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,080
acrobatics.
Flag is a specialization of
814
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:13,760
acrobatics, so.
And does my those who know teach
815
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,640
still apply or is this the?
Like we could say it's the same
816
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:18,920
scene.
We could say it's the same scene
817
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,480
because you've spent your, your
powers, the guys.
818
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:22,040
Expected.
Yeah.
819
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:26,280
So you still, you still act as
though I'm helping, even though
820
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,360
there's no conceivable way our
streaks could be helping here.
821
00:44:31,720 --> 00:44:34,320
Immortal support.
I just need you to make me a
822
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,240
difficulty 10 acrobatic skill
test.
823
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,400
Ten, yeah.
So I get AD four and then
824
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,040
upshift it again, Yes.
Oh yeah, from the health.
825
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,360
You're helping.
That is a 17.
826
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,520
All right, I'm not going to say
you've put out every single one
827
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,480
of the torches, but you've
definitely sort of dispersed
828
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,920
this mob a little bit.
Maybe a dozen of them are still
829
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,920
going to make their way towards
their destination, but the angry
830
00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:00,680
mob of like 70 people is not
going to run at this one pony's
831
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,800
house on the edge of town.
Today we have prevented mob
832
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,480
justice.
Well, but not yet, because
833
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,280
there's still a miniature mob
headed that way.
834
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:10,760
OK.
Well, yeah.
835
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,560
We have mitigated mob justice.
We have to work a little harder.
836
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:18,320
Hey, where'd my torch go?
Oh, he's not bright, is he?
837
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:19,480
Not without a torch.
His.
838
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,760
Name is Burley.
Bicep, bulk bicep.
839
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,360
But yes, that's.
Worse.
840
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:26,680
Yeah, Burley Bicep is his
brother.
841
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:29,920
Don't you know?
Widget says he's got an advice
842
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:35,240
that causes the sun sun to rise.
And also, didn't you hear the he
843
00:45:35,240 --> 00:45:38,320
got banished outside the town
because his experiments kept
844
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,440
blowing up.
And mayor, mayor said he
845
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,480
couldn't do the experiments in
town anymore.
846
00:45:42,720 --> 00:45:46,960
So somebody told me that that
meant that he made the what?
847
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:48,680
I guess I didn't see anything
explode.
848
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:50,960
He's got a device that makes the
sunrise.
849
00:45:51,240 --> 00:45:53,640
Isn't that heresy?
Wait, yeah, I guess.
850
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,520
I guess Richard doesn't make the
sunrise.
851
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:02,560
Now, Bicep, yeah, I understand
that many things which nature
852
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:06,960
makes difficult becomes easy to
the pony who uses his brains.
853
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:12,800
I understand why things might be
a bit extra difficult for you,
854
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:17,040
but trust us, we will figure
this out.
855
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,680
Oh, can I use persuasion?
I don't think you need to roll.
856
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:25,400
I think he's ready to go.
Like he's like, OK, OK, fine.
857
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,280
Yeah, I guess so.
Those words were too
858
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:30,600
complicated, and now it's nap
time for both biceps.
859
00:46:33,240 --> 00:46:36,120
Yeah, maybe if I brought out a
treadmill I could make
860
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:40,040
electricity.
No, that might be too smart for
861
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,120
me to figure out.
Whatever.
862
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,880
I'm out here.
I'm going to go do some creatine
863
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:53,240
about this later.
Dodge drink my stupid man.
864
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:54,640
My.
Protein latte.
865
00:46:56,200 --> 00:47:01,160
I do think maybe we should go
check out the inventor's cabin
866
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:05,000
though, just in the name of
maybe preventing some violence.
867
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,720
Yeah, that sounds about right.
You turn around and just see a
868
00:47:08,720 --> 00:47:11,680
little yellow dot in the
distance, already walking toward
869
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,200
that adventure.
She, Valder, was so fucking
870
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,840
exasperated how stupid that
conversation was.
871
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:18,560
She started going.
On wait balder that.
872
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,680
Yeah, and Spice is already there
because they were.
873
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,200
They joined them all.
One step help us I guess.
874
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:30,040
Unless mythic spice is gonna
redirect the mob from inside.
875
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,400
No, no, I'll go up with them.
You go up with them.
876
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:36,120
Well, you're the first one who
sees it, but everybody else will
877
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:39,320
see it eventually.
Though mostly in shadow from the
878
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,520
lights of the few torches that
are remaining.
879
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:46,520
Widget's house sits between 2
trees shaped like Tesla coils,
880
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:50,160
with tall, thick branchless
trunks and a crown of spiky
881
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:53,600
branches resembling sparks.
It doesn't make sense, but
882
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:55,880
they're trees that look like
Tesla coils with sparks coming
883
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:57,960
out of them.
Utopiary thing.
884
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:03,280
OK, it's a gothic style home
with long pointed arches, slim
885
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,480
columns, elaborately patterned
windows, and a single tower that
886
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,440
reaches into the sky.
The mob of ponies.
887
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:13,440
Well, the group of ponies.
It's not really a Bob anymore.
888
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:17,040
The group of ponies with torches
and pitchforks already surround
889
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:23,000
the home, saying come outside,
fix the sun, come outside, fix
890
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,800
the sun.
Mythic Spice is just gaping an
891
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,840
eye at this property and has
discovered that it is her jam.
892
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,640
Yeah.
There's a mini evil scientists
893
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:35,240
castle on the edge of town.
Look, I've been waiting when
894
00:48:35,240 --> 00:48:37,840
this property comes on sale for
years.
895
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:43,360
Getting life.
It just feels like such a great
896
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,240
place to work on dead bodies.
On what?
897
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:47,760
I mean, you do work on dead
bodies, your corridor that's.
898
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,520
Yeah, like.
Maybe we could share?
899
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,520
I will say this, I'm not going
to require you to make any
900
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:56,880
additional rolls to scare off
these ponies.
901
00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:59,840
I think just like tell them get
out of here is going to work OK?
902
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,280
It's those two like gossipy
ponies.
903
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:06,720
It's like Lily and Daisy and
Rose, the annoying ones that
904
00:49:06,720 --> 00:49:09,840
like run the flower shop.
I could sing a song to cheer
905
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:11,760
them up.
But do you have a song ready or
906
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:15,960
you get a Because, Russell,
sometimes you just have songs
907
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,880
that you know, that you've like
written out dramatically.
908
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,160
I don't think that you have that
in this situation.
909
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:29,960
It's all over.
I hope you got everything off
910
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:33,680
your chest.
It's all over.
911
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:43,760
Back up your things, go home and
rest, because everyone of us is
912
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,560
going to die.
So is this really how you want
913
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:51,720
to spend your time?
It's all over.
914
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,880
We'll all go.
Just wait and see.
915
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,880
Got yourself some neat new
memories.
916
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:04,240
It's all over.
I'm counting around and counting
917
00:50:04,240 --> 00:50:11,280
3123 because everyone of us is
going to die.
918
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,400
Completely unavoidable.
Don't even try.
919
00:50:14,720 --> 00:50:18,440
Chat amongst yourself.
Just say goodbye now, just one
920
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:25,440
more time to emphasize it's all
over.
921
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,320
I used to be a pop star, so I've
always got a song in my heart,
922
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,880
even if I am frequently looking
at hearts that aren't beating.
923
00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:41,280
Yeah, instead of dispersing the
mob in like a grumbling going
924
00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:44,040
back to their homes, you can
disperse the mob and have them
925
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:45,720
be happy about it.
And they're feeling a little
926
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:49,560
cheered up and also a little
concerned because of the content
927
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,160
that was a 12.
You know what great?
928
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,880
A pretty good song.
All right, I can write a pretty
929
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:56,160
good song.
Yeah, maybe.
930
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,600
Don't write an amazing song,
write a pretty good one.
931
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,320
You didn't roll well enough for
it to be amazing.
932
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:05,120
Thank God.
Anyway, the mob has been
933
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:08,640
dispersed.
So it is so fucking off the
934
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:11,840
rails.
I I think as it disperses,
935
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:14,760
Balder just kind of like
maneuvers her way through the
936
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,160
crowd, rolls up in front of the
door like everyone else.
937
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,840
Every pony else is still like
approaching or like waiting for
938
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,840
a clearer path.
And I think up to this point
939
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,280
she's had like the same just
kind of dead eyed, tired
940
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:28,760
expression on her face.
But before knocking, she takes a
941
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,880
deep breath, closes her eyes at
when she opens them.
942
00:51:33,240 --> 00:51:36,480
Completely different pony.
Like, not literally, she has not
943
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:39,960
cast an illusion, but it's like
she has put on a sort of like
944
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,760
sales pony persona.
It almost looks like like just
945
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,080
in her expression.
And that is the point at which
946
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:47,920
she finally knocks on the door.
Honey Bowl observes with a
947
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:50,440
quarter of a smile.
Very true to the character.
948
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:54,040
Go away.
Sorry, are you a professor?
949
00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:57,840
Is it Professor widget?
Yeah, go away.
950
00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:00,440
I I don't know.
I think I broke the sun.
951
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:01,320
Go away.
Well.
952
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,000
If you broke the sun, we'd very
much like to help you in fixing
953
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:06,640
it.
It's broken.
954
00:52:08,720 --> 00:52:13,400
Knocks again.
As a fellow person of
955
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,400
intelligence, I know exactly how
to reach people like this.
956
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,480
Yeah, that's what people of
intelligence call themselves.
957
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:20,640
People of intelligence fuck.
You.
958
00:52:24,720 --> 00:52:26,800
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
959
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:32,600
No.
But professor, is it true that
960
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:35,680
frogs are reptiles?
What?
961
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:38,800
If if you say something
factually incorrect and are so
962
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,600
certain about it, it gets
somebody to come out every time.
963
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:43,560
Is it true that frogs are
reptiles?
964
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,920
Because I'm pretty certain that
frogs are reptiles.
965
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,520
I have this running bet going
with my friend you see.
966
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:55,000
The door opens.
Ah, professor, there you are.
967
00:52:55,000 --> 00:53:01,000
Inside you see Widget.
Widget is a Gray earth pony with
968
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:06,040
a messy white mane and tail.
His cutie mark is like 3 gears
969
00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,280
that are also sort of in the
shape of a lightning bolt.
970
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:12,480
He is wearing a lab coat and has
goggles on the top of his head.
971
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:14,840
Wonderful.
Works every time.
972
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,080
Wow, they're amphibians, he
says.
973
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,280
And he does open the door for
you guys because you guys are
974
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:25,040
trying to get his attention, but
he doesn't really talk to you.
975
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,160
He sort of just walks back
towards his bedroom and lays
976
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,320
back in bed.
They're both wrong.
977
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,520
They're meat.
What does the inside of his
978
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:36,480
house look like?
Inside the front door is a sort
979
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:40,600
of living room kitchen area.
There's dusty books piled over
980
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:43,840
every surface.
Random bits and bobs of hardware
981
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:47,840
like gears and screws, knobs,
fasteners are all over the
982
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:49,760
couch.
Seems like he doesn't sit on the
983
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:52,520
couch much.
Pin to the walls are diagrams of
984
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:57,720
gadgets and scribbled notes, and
there is a sort of foul smell
985
00:53:57,720 --> 00:54:02,000
coming from the kitchen, coming
from a pile of dirty dishes next
986
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:06,240
to the sink, as well as a
spoiled glass of milk next to
987
00:54:06,240 --> 00:54:09,640
it.
Jesus delicious.
988
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:14,920
I can't take this.
There's like a little library,
989
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:17,280
he would call it a library, I
would call it maybe 3
990
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:19,320
bookshelves in the corner of the
room.
991
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,080
It's like bursting full of books
and papers.
992
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,440
And there's like, there's a
little hope chest next to it as
993
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:28,240
well.
Oh wow, I love your picks of the
994
00:54:28,240 --> 00:54:30,920
milk.
Snipset almost vomits and it's
995
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:34,680
like love your house, professor.
I cannot take a dirty kitchen,
996
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:37,240
can I, in the spirit of
generosity, go and do his
997
00:54:37,240 --> 00:54:40,240
fucking dishes.
Yeah, that's, that's totally
998
00:54:40,240 --> 00:54:42,320
fine.
Yeah, that is going to be
999
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,160
helpful for him.
Do I get a friendship point?
1000
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:46,160
Oh yeah, I guess I'll get you a
friendship point.
1001
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:47,880
Yeah, absolutely.
A friendship point, yeah.
1002
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,560
Yeah, so Honey Bowl, without
saying a word, just starts
1003
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,800
gathering up the dishes and
hauling him into the kitchen,
1004
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:56,560
and you hear him clatter with
the pots and pans.
1005
00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,240
Somehow there's Mozart playing
in the background.
1006
00:54:59,240 --> 00:55:00,440
You're not sure where it's
coming from.
1007
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:05,280
Jesus.
His bedroom, however, is
1008
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:09,240
upstairs and you hear him sort
of half heartedly calm down.
1009
00:55:09,240 --> 00:55:14,200
Things don't break anything.
I am incensed, but I'm not going
1010
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:18,080
to show it.
Brother is not doing well.
1011
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:21,080
No, clearly not.
All right.
1012
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,600
Where's this sun making machine?
That was that was why Forestryx
1013
00:55:24,720 --> 00:55:27,320
was about to.
Ask where's the?
1014
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:30,320
Sun making machine.
Maybe not in so many words.
1015
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,360
Well, you're gonna have to go up
to like his his bedroom to talk
1016
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:35,160
to him.
Unless you're just.
1017
00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:37,200
Oh, he's up there in the
bedroom.
1018
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:39,240
Yes, that he's.
Got up to his bedroom.
1019
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:41,360
Yeah.
Yeah, I think Baldur is behind
1020
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,120
heartstrings immediately.
She's kind of employing con
1021
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:48,160
artist mode here to try and if
they need to charm this this
1022
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,720
pony into helping them, she's
going to do that.
1023
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,240
Our space in her head is like
wow Baldur really like gets her
1024
00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:56,600
shit together when she's talking
to other people.
1025
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:05,120
You also see that the stairs go
up to a third floor as well, but
1026
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:08,200
you're not quite up there yet.
I like this place already.
1027
00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:12,560
The door is closed.
I would like to knock on it.
1028
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:24,840
Hi, I'm sorry I broke the sun.
Please go away.
1029
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:29,360
Well, I unfortunately, I don't
think we can really do that
1030
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:32,360
necessarily.
You said you broke the sun.
1031
00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:33,800
Can I open the door?
It's not.
1032
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:37,800
It's just a little rude to talk
through the door.
1033
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:40,800
Thank you.
Opens the door A.
1034
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:45,440
Chair is pushed up against the
door to keep you from opening
1035
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:47,600
it.
Can I use?
1036
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,200
Kinesis to maneuver the chair
out.
1037
00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:53,680
Of blocking the door.
You have to be strings hard.
1038
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:55,400
Strings.
Hard strings.
1039
00:56:55,680 --> 00:57:00,040
Hard strings hard.
Strings hard strings I OK so
1040
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,600
Blaster so heartstrings is going
to open the door, but like she
1041
00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:05,720
doesn't think she's forcing it
open.
1042
00:57:05,720 --> 00:57:11,480
She's just strong.
What's that what's that broad?
1043
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,920
OK yeah cool.
I've got that was.
1044
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:19,160
Oh, that's a big.
No, that's not going to get the
1045
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:20,040
door open.
I'm sorry.
1046
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:22,080
That's all right.
Yeah.
1047
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:24,240
What's that door made of?
Wood.
1048
00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:28,360
But you know, it's heavy wood.
You weren't deliberately trying
1049
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:30,760
to push it down yet.
I'll spare you the first one of
1050
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:33,520
the stress, but yeah, because
you were just trying.
1051
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:35,160
To what do you mean stress?
Where's that?
1052
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,960
Is that damage?
Yeah, it'll count as damage, but
1053
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,640
we don't, OK, We call it stress
in this system most of the time
1054
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,440
because, you know, you're not
really, you're not really
1055
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:46,200
getting killed.
That's all.
1056
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:47,360
That's all right.
We can talk through the door.
1057
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:52,200
So you said you broke the sun.
Can you?
1058
00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,120
Maybe.
I know that this is probably
1059
00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:58,720
really overwhelming, but is
there a way that you could
1060
00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:00,880
specify a little what you mean
by that?
1061
00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:04,760
I'm not that technically savvy
so I'm afraid you'll have to
1062
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:07,680
catch me up.
I don't know.
1063
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:12,120
It's my dad's thing.
It doesn't.
1064
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:14,520
Why won't you just leave me
alone?
1065
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:16,760
I'm a failure and everybody
hates me and I can't do anything
1066
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:17,280
right.
Go away.
1067
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:19,040
Let me sleep.
Oh no.
1068
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:22,600
Well, yeah, so let us fix it.
My friend, we do not hate you.
1069
00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:26,560
On the contrary, we find your
genius impressive.
1070
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:30,760
I can't even get I can't even
get my life together.
1071
00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:36,720
My house is a mess.
I'm So what am I doing with my
1072
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:39,800
life?
Mythic Spice is holding a card
1073
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:41,560
for the Stiffs and Stones
Funeral Home.
1074
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:45,680
Why?
In case you need this later.
1075
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,840
Oh, you know what?
If you've been involved in the
1076
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:52,480
Funeral Home, you remember his
dad died a month ago.
1077
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:54,520
Oh shit.
Oh yeah.
1078
00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:58,880
OK.
It was a nasty one too.
1079
00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:02,080
No, he died quietly in his
sleep.
1080
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:04,520
Yeah, but there was blood
everywhere.
1081
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:12,120
The death was not messy, it was
the autopsy.
1082
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:15,600
Mythic spice just really fucked
it up.
1083
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:21,720
Horror podcast, I guess guys, I
can't even organize my I can't
1084
00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:23,920
even figure out how to live a
life.
1085
00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:27,440
I'm so pointless and now I broke
the.
1086
00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:30,400
Sun Well, we'd certainly like to
help you get things back on
1087
00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:32,720
track.
I'm in the kitchen doing dishes.
1088
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:34,960
There's Mozart playing.
There's a.
1089
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:38,120
Oh, you're playing music?
I actually like the idea of you
1090
00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,160
playing music.
It's like what, You know what,
1091
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,600
he's got like a Petrola, like
he's got like a record player
1092
00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:44,960
there.
You go.
1093
00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:46,760
Yeah.
So I put on Mozart.
1094
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:51,480
There's a bouquet of lavender on
the freshly cleaned counter.
1095
00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:54,360
There's coffee brewing.
I brought some eggs for
1096
00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:56,560
breakfast.
What is that music?
1097
00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:03,480
Oh, that's that's Mozart.
But what's the horse equivalent?
1098
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:08,520
I often is.
That eggs.
1099
01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,880
Eggs and bacon.
Be careful, the kitchen's a
1100
01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:16,280
mess.
He actually like, opens the door
1101
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:18,920
to come downstairs to make sure
that, like, you don't mess up.
1102
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:21,440
And he's like, what?
Yes, I'm wearing a white apron.
1103
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:23,200
You don't know where any of this
came from.
1104
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:27,320
I'd also like to point out you
can't be cooking bacon.
1105
01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:30,920
Hay bacon, that's fine.
Yeah, it's it's hay bacon.
1106
01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:35,400
Bacon, Bacon.
Smells like the real deal.
1107
01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:39,280
But being terrible has to be
harder when everyone is in a
1108
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:42,040
herbivore.
Yeah, it's it's bacon.
1109
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:43,960
It smells like the real deal.
Where'd it come from?
1110
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:44,800
There You.
Go.
1111
01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:49,600
Not that any pony would know not
have any frame of reference.
1112
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,760
For it true, I do have a
question.
1113
01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:56,200
Does Heartstrings know that his
dad died recently?
1114
01:00:56,680 --> 01:00:59,160
Yeah, not unless Mythic Spice
said anything about it.
1115
01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:01,520
Yeah.
Oh, definitely, yeah.
1116
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:04,280
Yeah.
OK.
1117
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,120
Oh, he's probably sad because
his dad died.
1118
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:12,440
That is what people do when
their parents are dead.
1119
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:17,000
Yeah.
Yes, yes it is.
1120
01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:20,040
Bald her to herself with very
alive parents.
1121
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:23,240
I'm not sure I will.
She said.
1122
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:28,840
Well, thanks for helping clean
up a little bit.
1123
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:33,960
I mean, I guess I probably
doomed the world to eternal
1124
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:36,840
night, but.
Nah, we've all been there.
1125
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:40,440
Yeah.
Statistically, probably
1126
01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:45,840
heartstrings is like, I think
maybe he he's, he's out of the
1127
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,560
room now, right?
The bedroom, you can talk to him
1128
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:50,040
if you would like or not.
Your call.
1129
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:52,840
You also, he's gone down to the
kitchen, if you would like.
1130
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:54,560
You could look around his
bedroom if you would like.
1131
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:58,400
Yeah.
I think her first instinct is to
1132
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:00,920
go talk to him.
I think that that does leave an
1133
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:03,840
opening for anyone else who
wants to Snoop to do that.
1134
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:04,960
Yes.
Exactly.
1135
01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:06,760
Definitely.
Snooping time.
1136
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:09,880
Yeah.
She can talk to him off screen
1137
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:11,760
if people want to be like poking
around.
1138
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:15,240
Well, we could get back to the
talk to him in a second, but you
1139
01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:17,720
guys could poke around the the
bedroom if you'd like.
1140
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:20,480
And I'm going to poke around the
third floor when we're done with
1141
01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:23,080
this if I can.
The third floor is his
1142
01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:25,000
laboratory.
Bedroom first.
1143
01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:28,200
Do you think I sneak in first
and you comment on it or you
1144
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,520
sneak in first and realize I
have come in after you?
1145
01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:35,080
I think the latter.
Baldo, what on earth are you
1146
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:37,840
doing?
Trying to see if this guy has
1147
01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:41,120
anything about like what he did
and how we can unbuck it.
1148
01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:43,840
Like come on, do we want, do we
want to spend all night doing
1149
01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,200
therapy with him in Honey Bowl
or do we want to go ahead and
1150
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:48,920
solve this stupid problem so we
can go back to bed?
1151
01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:53,480
I know which one you need.
Sorry, that was out of pocket.
1152
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:56,480
Let's let's look.
Yeah, Buck, you too, dude.
1153
01:02:57,320 --> 01:03:01,440
Cut 2 honey bowls serving this
guy eggs Benedict with
1154
01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:04,280
hollandaise and bacon.
The perfect way to remember your
1155
01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:04,800
father.
Jeez.
1156
01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:06,600
Oh.
My.
1157
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:10,720
God, yeah.
It's really sweet and super
1158
01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:14,000
creepy just because of who
you're who you're parroting when
1159
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:18,320
you do it.
Sprinkling herbs over top.
1160
01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:21,680
Rosemary for remembering.
I want to bet you in the room
1161
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:25,280
when you're looking in the
bedroom there are several boxes
1162
01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:27,400
that are in the corner that are
covered in dust.
1163
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:31,520
One of them has been opened
relatively recently and looks
1164
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,280
like he was tearing it apart
trying to find something.
1165
01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:38,640
Also, he has like 4 or five
journals on the desks that he
1166
01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:40,680
seems like he was looking
through trying to find
1167
01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:43,280
something.
As you look at the journals,
1168
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:46,840
they are not his own journals,
but his father's journals
1169
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:52,320
detailing various inventions.
So it's journals.
1170
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:56,560
And also a box full of seemingly
half complete inventions as
1171
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:58,840
well.
But actually, as you're looking
1172
01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:05,400
around, you see one more thing.
There is a mostly empty box that
1173
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:09,040
is shoved under the bed.
It's sticking out just a little
1174
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:13,720
bit, and inside of it is a
clearly smashed invention of
1175
01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:15,160
some sort.
Huh.
1176
01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:17,560
Put a weird thing to serve in a
box under a bed.
1177
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:20,640
I I figure there's not going to
be a label on it that says son
1178
01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:26,800
fucker 6000, but like, is there
anything in it that like is
1179
01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:28,920
there anything we can tell from
the smashed invention?
1180
01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:32,920
Look, it has a lot of gears,
metal springs and screws and
1181
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:36,240
stuff like that.
Broken shards of transparent
1182
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:39,520
rock with sparkling flecks of
orange and gold.
1183
01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:43,240
I guess I should note note not
this box, but the other boxes in
1184
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:46,120
here as you're looking around.
They're labeled Dad's stuff.
1185
01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:52,280
I could use my technology skill
to look at this smashed up son
1186
01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:55,680
fucker 3000 or whatever it was.
Yes, let's talk about that in
1187
01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:57,320
just a second.
I want to go downstairs to the
1188
01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:00,280
conversation.
I was honestly expecting mythic
1189
01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:02,800
spice to look at those boxes
labeled dad's stuff and go I
1190
01:05:02,800 --> 01:05:07,080
know how to help with this and
just cross out dad my.
1191
01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:11,800
So heartstrings, you said you
had something you wanted to say
1192
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:15,720
to widget here.
I do think probably pretty much
1193
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:19,480
every pony in town is aware that
Heartstrings lost her parents
1194
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:22,480
when she was very young.
This is also me informing the
1195
01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:25,520
audience that Heartstrings lost
her parents when she was very
1196
01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:27,720
young, so she probably.
I remember that one.
1197
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:30,440
Need to introduce the concept?
Of course you do.
1198
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:35,600
That's why we're friends.
So I think as they sort of,
1199
01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:39,240
like, make their way downstairs,
the smell of delicious cooking
1200
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:42,000
foods setting the tone for the
conversation, she says.
1201
01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:47,720
You know, I don't think anyone
is expecting you to have
1202
01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:51,000
anything together under your
circumstances.
1203
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:57,080
It can feel like you have to
pick up the slack when you're
1204
01:05:57,080 --> 01:06:01,640
left all alone, but you have the
right to not be OK.
1205
01:06:03,080 --> 01:06:08,840
Well, maybe, but now I'm
affecting everybody because, you
1206
01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:11,600
know, I made it so the sun
doesn't rise anymore.
1207
01:06:12,320 --> 01:06:16,400
That might be true, but every
pony makes mistakes.
1208
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:21,160
And let's be honest, around
here, every pony makes pretty
1209
01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:27,160
big mistakes all the time.
So much you're hardly alone in
1210
01:06:27,160 --> 01:06:30,480
this.
But I I dropped it and it it
1211
01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:35,360
shattered into pieces and now
the sun isn't ever going to rise
1212
01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:38,520
again, no.
No, no, no, Mr. Widget.
1213
01:06:38,720 --> 01:06:41,440
It's only things that we do for
ourselves that die with us.
1214
01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:44,400
Things we do for others, well,
they're beyond us.
1215
01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:51,680
OK.
I think that's comforting.
1216
01:06:52,160 --> 01:06:57,080
I'm gonna try to maybe make a
role if you think a role is
1217
01:06:57,080 --> 01:06:58,760
appropriate here.
Yeah, you can roll.
1218
01:06:58,760 --> 01:06:59,440
What do you get?
A role.
1219
01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:02,440
Can I use persuasion with
understanding on this one?
1220
01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:04,160
Yes, you can.
Yes.
1221
01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:06,320
Can I assist?
You have persuasion?
1222
01:07:06,400 --> 01:07:07,280
Yeah.
Yeah, you can assist.
1223
01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:10,280
Her, yeah.
OK so that I have a
1224
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:15,640
specialization which means I add
AD four and AD 161718.
1225
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:18,400
His living space is a little bit
cleaner.
1226
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:22,320
You guys are being very nice
about knowing that it's OK that
1227
01:07:22,320 --> 01:07:25,840
he can't quite get it done.
He does still feel bad because
1228
01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:27,840
he definitely thinks he broke
the sun.
1229
01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:32,080
But you know, he's like, OK,
you're right.
1230
01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:34,840
This isn't.
This isn't what he would have
1231
01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:38,400
wanted anyway.
Is there any possibility that
1232
01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:42,600
the sun going out and the thing
you broke are not related?
1233
01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:46,360
What?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
1234
01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:51,400
See, when I was a kid, my dad
showed me the adventure that he
1235
01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:54,480
made, which brings the sun up
every day.
1236
01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:58,480
So every night, but when I would
go to bed and I would be worried
1237
01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:02,560
that the sun wouldn't come up,
he would turn it to make sure
1238
01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:06,520
that the sun would come up.
Every morning he helps Princess
1239
01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:12,120
Celestia, and without his help,
without this device's help, the
1240
01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:15,320
sun won't come up.
But I was trying to figure out
1241
01:08:15,320 --> 01:08:18,720
how it worked because it's very
impressive, and then I dropped
1242
01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:22,080
it.
What Is there a possibility that
1243
01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:25,040
your father was just being a
very good parent, trying to
1244
01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:30,080
alleviate his child's anxiety?
I'm sorry, what?
1245
01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:34,359
Not even it has not occurred to
him ever in 1000.
1246
01:08:34,359 --> 01:08:36,520
I want to ask.
A quick question I want to
1247
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:39,600
establish a quick point of order
that we kind of breezed past
1248
01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:42,520
earlier and now we need to
establish Yeah, looking at
1249
01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,399
Widget from our perspective as
ponies live in this world and
1250
01:08:45,399 --> 01:08:50,800
can roughly gauge the age of a
person, how old in human years
1251
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:54,279
does Professor Widget seem to be
He's. 28.
1252
01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:57,600
Literally older than very Rd.
ass man.
1253
01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:03,520
That was important to note.
Older than me, older than me,
1254
01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:06,319
Nathan, the real everyone.
Older than you.
1255
01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:10,399
Yeah, literally.
But we didn't say this in our
1256
01:09:10,399 --> 01:09:13,600
introductions.
Heartstrings is pony 21 maybe?
1257
01:09:14,399 --> 01:09:17,760
Yes.
Yeah, and I I had to know
1258
01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:21,240
because I was realizing hold up.
Either way, this is sad.
1259
01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:26,880
But is it like sad or sad?
Is this like a very young man
1260
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:30,760
who is like not finished growing
up or is this a fully a grown
1261
01:09:30,760 --> 01:09:32,960
ass pony?
Yes.
1262
01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:39,040
I want to know if if the like
the thing that he's describing
1263
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:42,319
squares with my understanding of
how Celestia raises the sun.
1264
01:09:42,319 --> 01:09:46,160
But looking at my stats, I.
Celestia just raises the sun.
1265
01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:48,479
Everybody knows Celestia raises
the sun.
1266
01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:52,800
She's magic.
Yeah, that's that's about what I
1267
01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:56,000
thought.
So I I got it, yeah.
1268
01:09:56,440 --> 01:09:58,520
Yeah, go ahead, You're smarter
than me.
1269
01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:00,880
No, no, no, no.
I mean, I mean, I understood
1270
01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:03,600
what was happening there, yes.
Yeah, yeah, no, this is
1271
01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:06,480
something that the dad made to
make his kids feel better.
1272
01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:10,000
That does raise the question of
why the sun is still not up.
1273
01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:12,280
Yeah.
That just raises does raise this
1274
01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,840
question so.
Yeah, I was gonna say, this kind
1275
01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:17,840
of puts us back to square 1.
OK.
1276
01:10:18,360 --> 01:10:22,200
Wait, so are you telling me no,
we need to fix it?
1277
01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:26,080
Maybe we can fix it.
If we find my dad's notes and we
1278
01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:28,360
put everything together, we'll
be able to fix it.
1279
01:10:28,480 --> 01:10:30,160
And if we fix it, we can make
the sun go back up.
1280
01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:35,640
So.
I'm going to pull you aside hard
1281
01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:38,360
strings and I'm going to say I'd
imagine it would be very
1282
01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:41,760
therapeutic for him to find the
notes and try to fix it.
1283
01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:44,120
So why won't we leave him to do
that?
1284
01:10:44,600 --> 01:10:46,760
Well, we figure out the real
reason you.
1285
01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:54,560
Know you make a very good point
that is probably fine she's like
1286
01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:59,200
she's she's fighting down the
impulse to insert herself into
1287
01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:02,600
the situation because she finds
it relatable but.
1288
01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:05,480
Yes, well, if he and The thing
is who's.
1289
01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:07,600
Right.
He is not going to be able to
1290
01:11:07,600 --> 01:11:10,000
fix it by himself.
He's going to need help to fix
1291
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:10,880
it.
Interesting.
1292
01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:13,080
OK.
Meanwhile, back upstairs, I'm
1293
01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:15,160
going to go back upstairs to the
people that we're looking at the
1294
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:19,080
the broken device.
So this seems to be a clockwork
1295
01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:23,080
device that has like a little,
there's like a timer involved in
1296
01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:24,240
it.
And after a certain amount of
1297
01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:28,120
time it would move the
something, maybe with the
1298
01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:31,240
sparkling orange and gold like
flecks of something of the
1299
01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:35,440
transparent rocks like that got
moved around or something in
1300
01:11:35,440 --> 01:11:37,680
this little device.
OK.
1301
01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:40,640
Yeah.
I'll fix it.
1302
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:43,760
Oh, you're just going to fix it
right now?
1303
01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:46,080
You're going to fix it.
And the spirit of laughter.
1304
01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:49,440
OK.
What?
1305
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:55,720
Just straight trying to fix it
right now is ADC 20 science
1306
01:11:55,720 --> 01:11:59,480
check.
If we work with other things to
1307
01:11:59,480 --> 01:12:02,960
try to put it together, we might
be able to to fix it in another
1308
01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:05,200
way, but you can just try to fix
it right away.
1309
01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,360
OK, DC 20 probably.
I can't get that.
1310
01:12:08,480 --> 01:12:10,920
So I'll, I'll just keep it in my
back pocket for the moment.
1311
01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:12,720
OK, no roll.
See if you create.
1312
01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:18,720
I'll come down with this box of
stuff that levitating it with
1313
01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:20,040
telekinesis because I'm a
Unicorn.
1314
01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:23,680
Yeah, well, we can try and fix
this, but I don't even know what
1315
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:26,360
it looks like.
In the meantime, can I poke
1316
01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:27,960
about their laboratory a little
bit?
1317
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:30,760
Yeah, absolutely.
You know, I'm just curious.
1318
01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:32,520
Looks like a Frankenstein
laboratory.
1319
01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:36,840
Yeah, that doesn't shock me.
Anything of note in here or is
1320
01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:40,120
it just funky science stuff?
You probably.
1321
01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:43,040
Can't identify anything unless
you're all be a technology or a
1322
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:46,320
science check.
I do have technology so.
1323
01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:47,960
OK bro will be a technology
check.
1324
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:50,800
Oh Christ, the dice roller hates
me today.
1325
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:52,920
That's an 8 total.
Woof.
1326
01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:56,680
Nope.
Yeah, I didn't think so.
1327
01:12:57,360 --> 01:12:59,640
Well, I hope the solution to the
mystery isn't up here.
1328
01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:04,000
Some sort of fake horn?
Can you?
1329
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:07,880
Well, if you want to help me fix
it, I guess we could try to fix
1330
01:13:07,880 --> 01:13:10,640
it.
I have my dad's old notes, but
1331
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:14,000
it's hard to.
We need to like go into town and
1332
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:18,600
buy more supplies maybe.
Or I don't have everything we
1333
01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:22,760
need here and we need some
Sunstone and maybe somebody who
1334
01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:27,240
also knows about technology.
I don't know.
1335
01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:31,720
I would say maybe you could find
Starlight Glimmer, but she
1336
01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:34,040
doesn't exist yet.
At this point in the continuity.
1337
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:37,280
There's a guy, Doctor Hooves,
who might be able to help out.
1338
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:39,560
I don't know.
Nobody has the time for that.
1339
01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:43,080
I forgot about Doctor.
I forgot about the actual Doctor
1340
01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:46,680
Who Verity in this show.
Yeah, nobody has time for that.
1341
01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:49,200
What's your idea then?
I'm just making a time pun.
1342
01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:52,240
Oh God damn it, God damn.
It.
1343
01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:53,320
I don't know how you missed
that.
1344
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:57,120
Damn.
Here's what I want to do if you
1345
01:13:57,120 --> 01:14:00,040
guys want to help him fix this,
even if it's mostly just going
1346
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:03,000
to make him feel better.
Each of you should tell me what
1347
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:04,960
you want to do to help him fix
it.
1348
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:08,080
As he is saying, he feels like
he doesn't have all the supplies
1349
01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:10,600
he needs because they're really
expensive to replace.
1350
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:14,440
He feels that he doesn't, he
can't read his dad's old
1351
01:14:14,440 --> 01:14:17,160
handwriting.
And also just, you know, he has
1352
01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:18,760
technology skill.
But if you helped him with the
1353
01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:20,160
technology skill, that that
would help us.
1354
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,680
Well, any other ideas that might
exist is also fine.
1355
01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:26,160
But I'm saying give me an idea
of how you would help with this.
1356
01:14:26,600 --> 01:14:29,600
I could probably read cursive
with my culture.
1357
01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:35,200
And interesting, I never thought
of that as culture.
1358
01:14:36,120 --> 01:14:39,240
Fucking sure.
Yeah, no, that makes perfect
1359
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:41,720
sense to me.
Kids these days.
1360
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:46,840
He doesn't know how to read
cursive this 28 year old.
1361
01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:49,960
When this is all I'm just going
to leave my business card
1362
01:14:49,960 --> 01:14:53,280
inconspicuously on his desk
somewhere.
1363
01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:56,680
On top of mine.
On top of yours, yes.
1364
01:14:56,920 --> 01:15:00,640
OK, well it sounds like one
people want to help decode the
1365
01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:02,160
diagrams.
Who wants to make the role and
1366
01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:04,840
who's helping?
Oh, I will help by holding
1367
01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:07,320
things because this was an earth
pony and I have magic.
1368
01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:10,560
OK.
I think I'm just literally still
1369
01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:14,600
being a a pony flashlight
considering the situation.
1370
01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:17,440
You know what?
That is helpful and you're
1371
01:15:17,440 --> 01:15:20,080
saying the thing that you are
helping is just because he is an
1372
01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:23,200
earth pony, you are just
assisting by just lifting things
1373
01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:27,400
up for telekinesis.
Yeah, I'm holding 4 things for
1374
01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:29,800
him.
So Balderdash is sort of just
1375
01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:31,680
providing the power of the sun
in the palm of your hand.
1376
01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:37,480
OK, great Heartstrings.
Is there anything that you could
1377
01:15:37,480 --> 01:15:40,240
think of that you would like to
do to help repair this if you
1378
01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:42,480
would like to?
You said he would.
1379
01:15:42,480 --> 01:15:45,560
He didn't feel like he had all
the right tools and he didn't
1380
01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:49,880
have the money to get new ones.
Oh yeah, I guess that is totally
1381
01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,120
your thing, isn't it?
Yeah, yeah.
1382
01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:55,320
I can I got.
All this in here.
1383
01:15:55,320 --> 01:15:58,280
I can help with building.
You can get the stuff from town.
1384
01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:00,880
We've got a flashlight, we've
got someone who can read
1385
01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:02,800
cursive.
We can do this.
1386
01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:05,760
Blank page, Where did your
accent go?
1387
01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:08,640
Sorry I'm just checking how my
wealth perk works.
1388
01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:10,840
It's like a really long perk for
some reason.
1389
01:16:12,360 --> 01:16:14,200
You can.
Once per game session you can
1390
01:16:14,200 --> 01:16:15,720
automatically pass any skill.
Yeah.
1391
01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:18,360
Is this a skill test that?
Could be bought, you know, I was
1392
01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:19,840
gonna make you could just
achieve it.
1393
01:16:19,840 --> 01:16:21,720
I could say you can get it right
away with your wealth.
1394
01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:24,920
Yeah.
Great money is sometimes does
1395
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:26,760
impact to make the world go
around.
1396
01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:29,640
OK, Honey Bowl.
Doctor Electrode.
1397
01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:33,560
Yes, honey Bowl, if you would
like to make a culture check to
1398
01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:36,160
read cursive.
Yeah, I just did.
1399
01:16:36,160 --> 01:16:38,600
And Russell can confirm I ruled
another 19.
1400
01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:39,480
Yep.
Great.
1401
01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:42,720
Yeah, you're actually able to
read the diagrams.
1402
01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:45,680
What do they say there?
Are instructions on how to make
1403
01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:47,200
it okay, Sir?
Yeah.
1404
01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,840
And blank page you were, what
were you doing?
1405
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:51,680
Blank page.
I was going to assist with the
1406
01:16:51,680 --> 01:16:54,080
technology tech.
OK, that's great.
1407
01:16:54,440 --> 01:16:56,320
So he.
Actually, can I?
1408
01:16:56,480 --> 01:16:58,760
Can I take a friendship point
for generosity behavior?
1409
01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:00,480
Absolutely.
Get a friendship point.
1410
01:17:00,480 --> 01:17:01,240
Perfect.
Yeah.
1411
01:17:01,480 --> 01:17:05,640
Mythic, spicier holding stuff,
balderdash your lighting stuff.
1412
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:08,160
I think what we're going to do
is actually we're going to have
1413
01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:12,240
widget role to fix it, but we'll
give it a boost, Yeah, so.
1414
01:17:12,480 --> 01:17:14,960
If he fucks this up that's going
to be so sad.
1415
01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:17,400
The rate of mind boggling
insanity in corners really went
1416
01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:18,920
down when they kicked earth
boating this out of the
1417
01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:20,360
profession.
I say holding stuff.
1418
01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:24,320
He would have failed without
your shift because he rolled at
1419
01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:27,320
11, but he got a 10 because of
your shift.
1420
01:17:27,680 --> 01:17:30,440
So wow, you have to give your
assistant.
1421
01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:36,160
So he puts the thing together.
One of the the main thing that
1422
01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:40,640
you provided heartstrings as
well is you got a pretty rock to
1423
01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:43,800
put in there that's specifically
called a Sunstone.
1424
01:17:44,080 --> 01:17:47,360
And he's like perfect.
We did all right.
1425
01:17:47,400 --> 01:17:50,240
We fixed Equestria.
He inserts the battery into the
1426
01:17:50,240 --> 01:17:52,560
sphere with a soft click.
And by the way, this is all
1427
01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:55,920
taking place in the laboratory.
It begins to hum with activity.
1428
01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:59,440
The gears turn of the low whir.
The arm attached to the sphere
1429
01:17:59,440 --> 01:18:01,400
wiggles and jiggles and starts
to move.
1430
01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,640
He smiles, and he's crying a
little bit.
1431
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:08,360
Well, not full on crying, but
his eyes are brimming with tears
1432
01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:11,160
of relief and you know,
remembering his dad.
1433
01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:15,040
Balderdash uncomfortably looks
away because this is an outward
1434
01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:18,440
display of vulnerable emotion
and she doesn't like that.
1435
01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:24,360
And it's fixed.
But to maybe not your surprise.
1436
01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:27,480
But to his surprise, there is no
dramatic shift in daylight.
1437
01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:30,680
The black of the night continues
to cloak Equestria in darkness.
1438
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:36,760
However, the device itself
begins to jerk suddenly and
1439
01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:41,200
starts rattling as the arm that
sort of functioned as a clock
1440
01:18:41,440 --> 01:18:45,240
begins to spin faster and
faster, and then all of a sudden
1441
01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:48,840
it locks into position, pointing
S like a compass.
1442
01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:52,840
Oh, it's a compass.
What?
1443
01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:55,280
This is even stranger than I
expected.
1444
01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:58,160
It looks like the sun.
The sun is right where it's
1445
01:18:58,160 --> 01:19:01,200
always been.
The sun must be in the sky.
1446
01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:03,880
I don't think, Princess.
Oh, Dad.
1447
01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:08,040
We might not have fixed the sun,
but I think we made something
1448
01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:10,600
beautiful here today.
We may not have fixed the sun,
1449
01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:15,600
but we have fixed hoof on
shoulder the sun it's credits
1450
01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:17,440
are.
Wait, hang on.
1451
01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:20,640
I have questions.
That is so good.
1452
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:24,800
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
So 'cause if I and he, he runs
1453
01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:28,280
over to some other devices and
he starts figuring out and doing
1454
01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:29,520
some stuff.
Wait a minute, wait a minute,
1455
01:19:29,520 --> 01:19:30,920
wait a minute.
OK, OK.
1456
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:35,640
The sun is still in the sky.
The sun is shining right now.
1457
01:19:35,840 --> 01:19:39,040
I never even look to look at my
sun, Ometer, I just assumed it
1458
01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:41,720
was broken.
But but the light and energy
1459
01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:46,040
from the sun is being diverted
away somewhere.
1460
01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:48,680
It's sucking all of the energy
from the sun.
1461
01:19:48,680 --> 01:19:52,360
And also, have you all been
feeling a little less
1462
01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:55,200
enthusiastic today?
Nope.
1463
01:19:55,360 --> 01:19:59,200
It's just, it almost feel like
today is like kind of weird and
1464
01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:01,200
grimmer than normal in
Ponyville.
1465
01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:03,560
It's like sort of a weird vibe
that we're getting we.
1466
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:05,840
Haven't really noticed much I.
Just assumed that was.
1467
01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:09,520
I just assumed.
That was because of the sun not
1468
01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:13,240
being in the sky.
Maybe, maybe, but like, even if
1469
01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:15,920
the sun is in the sky, there
shouldn't be mobs of people
1470
01:20:15,920 --> 01:20:18,800
trying to.
I think someone's trying to suck
1471
01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:24,080
out all of the love from
Ponyville again.
1472
01:20:25,200 --> 01:20:31,640
OK, my device is pointing to
where the sucker is.
1473
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:34,240
We should go there and.
Sorry.
1474
01:20:34,520 --> 01:20:39,680
And turn off the sucker.
We'll get that sucker.
1475
01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:43,280
Yeah.
He sucked his last.
1476
01:20:44,400 --> 01:20:46,160
We we got to call it something
else.
1477
01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:51,760
No, it's too late, Heartstrings.
We're going after this sucker.
1478
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:55,480
Come my friends, the game is a
hook.
1479
01:20:55,480 --> 01:20:57,880
Once he's done sucking the love,
he's going to have to suck
1480
01:20:57,880 --> 01:21:00,280
something else, and we can't
have that happen all.
1481
01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:03,640
Right, we're going to need to go
through the ever free forest to
1482
01:21:03,640 --> 01:21:06,360
get there.
Everybody be careful.
1483
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:10,840
Sorry, no, the what Boulder
definitely like raises up when
1484
01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:12,800
he says that.
Oh, what?
1485
01:21:12,800 --> 01:21:15,400
You've never taken a nightly
stroll through the Ewa Free
1486
01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:17,800
Forest?
Come Balda, this will be fun
1487
01:21:17,800 --> 01:21:21,520
all.
Right as you go outside you see
1488
01:21:21,520 --> 01:21:25,920
that there's like 5 ponies who
are saying hey widget, why'd you
1489
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:28,840
break the sun?
Widget didn't break the sun and.
1490
01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:30,960
Said I didn't break the sun.
Get out of here.
1491
01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:33,720
Widget's dad broke the sun.
Go home.
1492
01:21:34,120 --> 01:21:36,760
To.
Other people, yeah.
1493
01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:40,040
Didn't we just go through this?
There was a song about and
1494
01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:43,960
everything.
It was a good song, not amazing,
1495
01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:46,040
but good.
Heed it's words or they'll
1496
01:21:46,040 --> 01:21:48,200
happen to you.
This is to show that Widget
1497
01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:50,680
could stand up for himself.
He's like, no, no, it's I didn't
1498
01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:52,600
break the sun, but we're going
to fix it right now.
1499
01:21:53,440 --> 01:21:58,280
And he runs off like at full
speed into the ever free forest
1500
01:21:58,600 --> 01:21:59,480
and if.
You don't.
1501
01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:06,560
And if you've somehow gotten
this far into this episode
1502
01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:09,800
without knowing about the
Everfree Forest, the Everfree
1503
01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:14,320
Forest is the part of Equestria
where everything is all crazy
1504
01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:16,880
and wild, the weather isn't
controlled and all of that.
1505
01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:19,800
There's like dangerous timber
wolves and stuff that live
1506
01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:23,840
there.
Timber Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
1507
01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:26,240
There you.
Go.
1508
01:22:26,440 --> 01:22:30,040
MLP Mozart.
So what's his full speed again?
1509
01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:34,800
He's going at a normal earth
pony speed, which is probably
1510
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:37,800
less fast than you as a Pegasus,
right?
1511
01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:40,800
My my ground is 15, my aerial is
45.
1512
01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:45,800
OK, so you can actually sort of
keep up with yeah cuz his is 45
1513
01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:46,520
as a yeah.
Oh.
1514
01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:50,000
There you go.
And you head into the ever free
1515
01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:59,800
forest.
Thanks for listening, Happy
1516
01:22:59,800 --> 01:23:02,080
April Fools, and if you enjoyed
this, you might enjoy The
1517
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:04,920
Friendship Factory featuring
Kane and Low Place's regular
1518
01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:07,360
Theo.
If you didn't enjoy this, our
1519
01:23:07,360 --> 01:23:10,040
regular episodes will be on the
same schedule as always, though
1520
01:23:10,040 --> 01:23:12,720
I guess I need to figure out
when to put out the second
1521
01:23:12,720 --> 01:23:17,600
episode of this.
Daniel was our jockey.
1522
01:23:17,600 --> 01:23:19,480
Kane played Heartstrings the
earth pony.
1523
01:23:19,480 --> 01:23:21,360
Theo played Balderdash the
Unicorn.
1524
01:23:21,440 --> 01:23:25,200
Renee played Honey Bowl, Lectra
the Pegasus, Nathan played Blanc
1525
01:23:25,280 --> 01:23:28,800
Page the earth pony, and Russell
mixed mastered in music the
1526
01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:32,240
episode in addition to playing
the Unicorn Mythic Spice.
1527
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:35,520
I will not be taking notes on
the song because deadlines and
1528
01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:39,360
toddlers are a terrifying mix.
We've got a 24 hour live stream
1529
01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:42,560
coming up April 17th that we are
twice as unprepared for as last
1530
01:23:42,560 --> 01:23:45,440
year, a Discord where you can
find out more about that, and a
1531
01:23:45,440 --> 01:23:47,840
Patreon where you can listen to
stuff that doesn't make it into
1532
01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:50,560
the main feed over at
patreon.com/dread Tails.
1533
01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:53,600
Again, thanks for listening and
until next episode.
1534
01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:59,440
I will forsake of time.
I thought there's I was
1535
01:23:59,440 --> 01:24:02,000
considering maybe having
confused Timberwolves attack
1536
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:05,560
you, but I think we'll we'll
skip that and.
1537
01:24:06,160 --> 01:24:07,800
You unless we want to make it a
2 parter.
1538
01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:10,240
No, no, but it.
Could it be easier if we just
1539
01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:14,560
split it down the middle here?
I mean, do we want we?
1540
01:24:14,560 --> 01:24:17,960
Could I feel like if we're going
to now is the time like and let
1541
01:24:18,440 --> 01:24:22,400
I I think the people at home
would prefer 2 decent halves
1542
01:24:22,400 --> 01:24:26,440
than one like hole that falls
apart in the last like 30
1543
01:24:26,440 --> 01:24:29,200
minutes to an hour.
Yeah, I wanna do a Timberwolf
1544
01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:34,120
attack.
I mean, I just, I want everybody
1545
01:24:34,120 --> 01:24:37,520
to know that I was ready to end
this in one session.
1546
01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:39,800
I was absolutely ready to end
this in one session.
1547
01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:43,120
People from my podcast are going
to be like, oh, what a surprise.
1548
01:24:43,120 --> 01:24:44,720
Dado couldn't keep it all in one
session.
1549
01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:47,400
Again, I'm gonna have you know
that I was going to have it
1550
01:24:47,400 --> 01:24:49,760
ready for one session and we
couldn't conclude it in one
1551
01:24:49,760 --> 01:24:50,800
session.
We.
1552
01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:56,840
Are lying and we know it.
It's OK Dan, I will know that
1553
01:24:56,840 --> 01:25:00,360
Theo bullied you into this.
Theo's done it to me plenty of
1554
01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:01,720
times.
Love you man.
1555
01:25:04,120 --> 01:25:06,680
Dang all our plans to never play
this again after this.
1556
01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:08,240
They're falling apart in real
time.
1557
01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:11,160
The.
Game we could I'll.
1558
01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:13,960
Wait.
Until after, What were you going
1559
01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:14,880
to say?
What were you going to say?
1560
01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:17,280
I was going to say, the game's
not that bad.
1561
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:21,680
No, it's fun, I think.
I think what Russell Russell is
1562
01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:24,720
saying is we clearly do want to
play more of this like we're
1563
01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:26,400
having a great time.
It's yeah.
