  1. @Randimaxis & @Flow As the stallion had noticed the large door knocker, he made his way to in in the usual unrushed way of the sort those do who look as if they've never rushed for much in their lives. A slow, steady progress generally expected of a workhorse farmpony that was uninterrupted... except the approach of a new mare and likely worker to the household he was approaching. From where he was hailed on the path, Clod Hopper turned smoothly and unencumbered by the large crate strapped, padded and nestled ontop the thickly woven and ancient back blanket that hid his wings. Even if his wings had been the normal size of a pegasus' to be seen from a little ways off, it would be remarkably rare to see a winged pony do much of the heavy lifting one more usually expected of the other pony races. Through this ease of movement, he might have wordlessly answered her question for aid. "Oh, uh... Howdy Ma'am." The farmboy stallion greeted her in a low county drawl, one that spoke of being unused to speaking up. "Had a deliv'ry fer the big place up yonder. Needed ta know where to leave 'er at? Was just gon go in the front, less iffen you knew where better to put it?"
  2. @Catpone Cerberus The Earth elemental glared down with smoldering magic eye-holes at the cathorse patient as if waiting. In the meantime, the sprite companion still thusly unnamed, chimed in. Who said this was wish-granting? I said it was magical, that's all i'm going on! Do I look like some kind of expert on this- Sh-Sh-Sh-Sh-Sh-Sh-Sh!!! A torrent of winds plummented down, buckling Cerberus's knees and flattening the poor, small, complaining sprite to the ground in a bustle of breezes every which way. Not altogether rare for wind to do as any pegasus could tell you, but the light, unharming but frequent blows felt like a dozen small hands frantically pummeling in search of something they were too small to grasp. It might have been just sharp gusts but they hit like an entire flock of pigeons flying into you and for as fast it was going it was all but hard to see the tiny pair of sharp, seething angry eyes fly past in the nearly invisible Air Elemental assaulting the group. Up until now, it had been up on that mountain top, the artifact serving as its heart. But of course, being air, it didn't have the ability to shield the Muffin McGuffin that was now currently buried in the other Elemental's chest. That rocky sentinel hadn't noticed the flurry as it stood there. As chunks started crumbling off it in a dirty shower of clumps from the now sudden wind, it grew to acknowledge in its burgeoning existence that its form needed to be sustained. And in an act of self-preservation... Rose both its hefty, yard-long arms of rock over Cerberus's head. Once rock decides to fall... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ @Sekel "Well, If my Lady insists, then who am I to disobey an Order?" the rather sarcastic dragon replied following Dawn Streak to the door. "I am going to be With you, that doesn't mean that if I have to deal with ponies, that i'm going to be any civil about it than they are. ...um, thank you for making a meal for me... by the way." Kaltrop ended his sentence in lower tones as he padded quietly after her.

  4. Been in the tub for over an hour.
    Was playing Hearthstone and I made a deck who's sole point is to fill both players up with Banana cards.

     I've been stuck saying Banana for about twenty plus minutes now. Think I'm pleased with my moment there.

    Spoiler

    Highlights:
     "No! You've defeated my banana-forces! My only course is to summon forth the Banana Boss! Bossnana!"
    "I've gone a bit hoarse. I've... got a banana in my throat! ..and i'm not happy to see you."
    "I've gone into some sort of banana-rage. A fervor like unto some sort of.... Bananaserker."

     "You've kicked my Potassium!"

     

  5. I've always wanted to meet A spongebob!

     How're you doing? Don't think we've cordially met yet.

     By which I, of course, mean that we have yet to take turns chucking Cherry Cordial treats at each other until we're coated in candy goo.

     I'm pretty sure that's how Friendship works.

  6. Now let's crack into this new thrilling issue of The Somewhat Half-Decent, Not Exactly Our A-Grade but Still Not Much to Complain About Spiderman!!!

      Well most fudge is superhumanly strong anyway.

  7. Guys, ya gotta help me.

    None of this seems silly. That’s all pretty usual.

    1. Duality

      Duality

      I suspect the strange thing here is that the view out the window is boring trees and grass like some mundane picturebook image and not real life. :mlp_wat:

  8. @Sekel "Gems are a sweet treat. More of a sometimes-food, really." Kaltrop said looking down in his usual grandizing pose, his sight diverted from the mare. "It's a childish thing really. Not like it's healthy to eat nothing but gems, but suppose dragons have never really been known for good self-..." Having just caught on to a prior tidbit of the conversation, the drakeling awkwardly fumbled his way towards Dawn and lowered his head towards her in an unintentional begging motion as he asked. "Th- there's a-another dragon in town?!! Living amongst ponykind without them at-... and getting along? I mean, s-sure, yeah! We could do some stuff outside today, sure!" He looked at her in his flustered state unknowingly matching her amount of blushing distractedness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ @Catpone Cerberus Something did indeed stop him. For where the Golden Muffin McGuffin had been dropped where Cerberus had been standing, the ground clamped shut around it, forming a boulder around it tight and secure. It then rose up, trailing a bundle of smaller, but hoof-sized rock balls and two larger, oblong chunks. These latter parts levitated to its sides, magical bracers appearing as the smaller rubble assembled itself into a rotating assemble of a lower body and one notably larger rock rolling up the chest that now cradled the idol like a heart to float above it and have its eyes glow a faint, dirty gold magical aura like angry eyes and become its tiny, rocky head. It loomed over Cerberus, easily big enough for him to ride on its shoulder and far too hefty to kick without breaking a hoof. Lumbering it sure was... but with Earth's elemental sturdiness came its ponderously slow wish to move. It looked like it was thinking... hopefully more confused than angry. The violet little light traveling buddy bobbed down to rest at Cerberus's shoulder. I said it was Magic. Magic means Unexplainable. This is all pretty basic stuff, yo.
  9. "Did you know Discord's birthday is May 13, 2015?"

    .... Sniff,

      ...Think we can use this guys.

     

    :umad:

    Now you Hold on There! I'll have you fanboy lots know I have multiple "birthdays" as a godlike entity such as myself doesn't ascribe to such restrictive time-based trivialities. Why would I, of all characters, wish a day just for you puny mortals to give me attention?

  10. Billy is such a Mood. Is it too telling that he might very well be a role model for me?

     

  11. @Catpone Cerberus Will what help? How am I supposed to know what you're doing? You're still like half a mile away! You fell down a cliff! What am I, magically omniscient or something! I'm just a ball of light that leads you into stuff! The sprite quipped back. Turns out dropping the Golden Muffin McGuffin wasn't a wise choice either. As volatile this must be and somehow dampening it enough to transport and contain would be proven quite soon. Because the dust had cleared pretty quickly. As if sucked up somehow. Where Cerberus the catpony had dropped the Muffin MacGuffin, it had started to be engulfed in the red dirt rubble of the area like unseen hands were rolling it into some sort of snowball, but with dirt. In seconds, it would be a dirtball, then a a low rumble underneath it would be heard. Trouble was happening. From the looks of it, if Cerb could divine this himself (and certainly not by any convenient, blatant exposition) anything this golden idol touched would start amassing around it. Indeed, if he had held onto it much longer, it would have ripped the flesh off his paw. Perhaps even that kitty ovenmitt too! ... How... ODD... then. Since it had been magically floating, unassuming when they had found it. Surely THAT wouldn't be another secret pocket of trouble to happen later! @Sekel "I'm saying you pressured me into servitude. You said you needed me, and if you pick fights with other ponies as much as you do with me, You probably need somebody on your side to help you out of your own messes." Kaltrop returned to his haughty position of chest out and head back; once again, not terribly unlike most housecats. "Besides, even if pony meals are small, gooey and boneless... it's at least more reliable than having to hunt down random critters in my gorge at home."
  12. It doesn't matter what it "Should Look Like." Even if you were showing it to others, they can't see what you do. Whatever it is you do, it's flavored in the mystic power of what you interpret it as. Even if its just squiggles or mad ravings, unintelligible or even if others do like it. What matters is to take something OUT of your head for once. The most important thing is to enjoy what you do. *Twinkly Trixie music stars playing in the background* Also, hullo from ten minutes in the future!
  13. Why aren't Pirates more of a thing? I demand more Pirate representation!

    It's always just a side-thing. A "look! We themed this small area of the game! Teehee!...okay, move along now, you've done everything here now." They're never the main badguys or general theme.

     Sure, books will be overwhelmingly Pirate, but those are rare. Pirates are great! They're so inclusive! You know why?

     Every time I see pirate clans, there's always representitives of every shape, race or species. That lizardman from well another continent is there, that semi-feral beastman who can only think so far as Smash, the rich, fat elitiests and the drunkards who's day is great so long as Rodriquez's parrot doesn't s&%t on him again all meet as equals! Because there's no set requirement for bein' a pirate.

     You want money, you want a fun time... and if you blow up a few people along the way, that was just a happy little murder  accident.

    They make as great minions/villains as zombies do. They're only goal is to break stuff and do literally what they were hired to do. No self-respectin' Pirate has any self-preservation because they already spend they're life trying to not die from ill health from ingesting the garbage they do rob to eat.

    Gad, I love pirates!

  14. Another thing me Pappy used tah do.

     See, he a slow reader. And them thar books got that nasty habit of havin both durn pages facein’ ya at the same time! So the simple solution... is to fold the book in half, along the spine. To read just one page forward. In a process most books react to with tiny, screamy cracking noises. 
    I used to find his small paperbacks with front covers in corkscrew curls, shedding page fragments like hairs or him reading a third a book with a loose pile of sheets nearby. And he’d wonder why he needed to throw books away after he was done.

    I don’ come from Smart.

    1. Duality

      Duality

      That is easily the most heinous book crime I've ever heard of. Your pappy is a literary psychopath. :yeahno:

  15. Wait! The secondary hindbrain theory has been disproven?!!?

     I’ve been out of the Dino news loop for far too long! My mind has been blown! 
     I can accept the Feathers theories; though I don’t know who this leaves as Reptilian. I was big into Dinos as a kid in the 90s but I stopped reading.

  16. @Sekel "Well, internal temperature. You know, it's..." Kaltrop looked at the mare in surprise from where Streak had bolted upright in her kitchen. "...A dragon phrase. Like our firebreath... the hotter someone is the more, um... they pick a fight and are capable. You're fiesty, you know." The drake squirmed his head aside as if barely recognizant of what awkwardness he might have invited into the conversation. "Besides, as eager as you are to pick a fight with someone... a Much Larger And Capable Combatant, such as myself, ...I don't see how you have any reason to doubt your own capabilities. I wouldn't be stuck in your tiny den like this otherwise." @Catpone Cerberus "I don't fly. I float, there's a difference you know." The little fairy light mumbled flatly to itself from its fair distance away the top of the cliffs where it bobbed. Very slowly it wobbled downward like a careful climber that didn't need handholds and like the little firefly light it more resembled. When you're a itty bitty creature of magic light, you aren't designed much for aerodynamics or agility and its top speed was more like a leisurely stroll and light travelling buddy didn't seem too terribly concerned for Cerberus's safety, The dust around him however, wouldn't linger as long as one would think pulverized rock would. It seemed to dissipate unnaturally fast in a sphere around him as if there was some unseen energy radiating out from him that not even a cat's eyes could catch. A tinge of aching pain would ring in the paw or place Cerberus held the golden idol. The sort of dull aching of a headache from a place in one's body one couldn't place but told you there was something wrong that needed to be taken care of. As if what he held was leeching, pulling at him, pulling out short hairs in an almost imperceptibly slow pace. Perhaps it wasn't a good idea to keep ahold of this thing for very long and something ought be planned on what to do with it. It might be radioactive, and that can't be good!
  17. Just got a new computor set-up! Some great big flatscreen on a tiny base & a pretty MSI Dragon desktop tower!

     Maybe now I can talk more around here again without the depression getting in the way!

      I have been living with cats most of my life :LunaMCM: and while most of the time it has been 2 cats at a time, there has been short moments where we have had up to 6 cats. :catface:

    I’d say 3&6 work best. 2 is more of an Applejack; i’m surprised AJ doesn’t keep hers longer.

  20. Did you hear how Frosted Flakes had to cancel its Twitter account because Furries wouldn't stop lewdly harassing poor Tony the Tiger?

     Shameful, I know!

    Where's the Body Positivity & Inclusivity?!!? Why aren't we flirting with Toucan Sam & the Honey-Nut Cheerios Bee?!!? 

  21. Peeps complain about 2020. They say we had too much political drama and a dorky president. I say we always have; I don't pay attention to that havoc.

     They say social distancing has been bad.

     But I wouldn't know what it's like to be stuck all day in your house, for months on end, fearing that getting close to anyone will lead to ostracization and only going out for supplies rarely while fearing a worst case scenario or assault on your inclement health. Not having reliable income, not knowing where you'll live or what your plans are for the next year, having to get all your interaction and intrapersonal care solely through a computor screen as you whimper internally for change you know you'll fear just as much... these, are things that I, a denizen of the Internet, have not experienced enough to know.

     "Hello Darkness, My Old friend~~" 

    1. Stone Cold Steve Jobs

      Stone Cold Steve Jobs

      2020 sounds like it was written by an 8 year old.

      ”And then there was no school forever!”

      ”We stayed inside and played video games all day!”

      ”Everyone ran out of toilet paper!”

  22. There's been one fellow on these here forums (no names!) who I sent a message to, because I liked what he made, and he seemed cool & confident.... and maybe I might have been overly flirty. I dunno, I wasn't paying attention to what I said.

     And, like, Immediately after he made no point of responding to anything of mine, (think he's the only one here, i'm on an Ignore list with) and was talking somewhere about how somebeing here got all pushy-touchy with him. And I can't help but think I came off a bit much.

     Kind of been kicking myself ever since.

  23. To be honest with you. One thing i've never understood about your name...

     You're replacing Austin with a large fish? Why?

     Does that wrestler smell strongly of fish? Do you regularly go around sniffing wrestlers and rating their smell?

      It can be if we all pretend really hard!

      His birth name was Steve Anderson. Which hits a lot less hard for some reason than Steve Austin.

      Well, I did critically fail on my roll for initiative.

      ...that wasn't even referencing rpgs, just my life in general.

      My speed stat is garbage, yo.

  25. Maybe working in retail has made me a bit of a Scrooge.

    Sure, this season They're varying the vast amount of Christmas songs, but I never hear sentiment about goodwill or family togetherness.

     Commercialism might be just one negative side i'm focusing too much on, but I've never had too much Goodwill myself. I'm not typically around much many peoples.
