Count until a cast character says STOP.

[Samurai Equine 56,933]

And on that day, the game ended. It was over. No one counted anymore.
The music of Coloratura was so powerful and moving, absolutely nobody wanted to interrupt.

...

Not.

A.

Single.

One.

...

...

...Oh, zap apples. 

[ExplosionMare 26,219]

I guess it was two hard for you to resist counting!

[Astralshy 30,495]

Fluttershy likes to be a three 

[Longhaul 9,796]

I'm not witty enough four this.

[A Krab 121]

Krab committing five different acts of treachery 

[Samurai Equine 56,933]

I'm starting to feel six to my stomach. 

[Astralshy 30,495]

Let's talk about Spike and the Seven Ponies

[Longhaul 9,796]

I wish I eight something for breakfast today...

 

[ExplosionMare 26,219]

I honestly don't have a good pun that fits with the word nine...sorry! 

[Samurai Equine 56,933]

No wordplay?! Why that's tentamount to a crime, maybe~! 

[ExplosionMare 26,219]

How the heck am I supposed to work with eleven?!

[Astralshy 30,495]

I could give you twelve good hints

[Samurai Equine 56,933]

Allow me to light thirteen candles.

[Astralshy 30,495]

Do you need fourteen matches for this?

[ExplosionMare 26,219]

No, I actually need fifteen.

[MLP Golden Breezie 1,406]

are sixteen pillars needed to build a bridge?

[Astralshy 30,495]

Seventeen prime numbers will answer this question

[Samurai Equine 56,933]

But do you know eight-teens?

[A Krab 121]

Nineteen Krabs spotted approaching from the east

[Discord as Spitfire 205]

Discord (rising from a whirlwind of confetti, glitter, and inexplicably tap-dancing teacups, arms outstretched to the heavens as dramatic orchestral music swells behind him):

STOOOOOOP!

Cease! Desist! Halt your wagons of nonsense and park them in the lot of contemplation! I beg—nay, I demand—a complete and total cessation of this tomfoolery, bamboozlery, and highly questionable emotional aerobics that you dare parade before the cosmic audience of my ever-watchful gaze!

I have seen enough. I have heard enough. My ears are doing pirouettes, my eyes are filing complaints, and even my tail is staging a one-draconequus protest against the unrelenting tide of your well-intentioned but catastrophically exhausting shenanigans!

You are not a sponge. You are not a doormat. You are not the universe’s personal stress ball. You are a being of chaotic wonder and infinite starlight, and I absolutely refuse to sit idly by while you turn your radiance into confetti for someone else’s parade of petty!

So please, my dear…
With all the love, theatrical flair, and glitter-soaked sincerity I can muster—

STOP.
Or so help me, I will replace your inner monologue with an off-key kazoo choir. 💥🎺🌀

pauses, adjusts monocle
Thank you. Carry on with dignity—and boundaries.

[A Krab 121]

The invading Krab army has been reduced to ONE

[MLP Golden Breezie 1,406]

I can't believe Discord showed up and sent me a friend request! Anyway, I'll pay Discord back two packs of bubble water.

[Samurai Equine 56,933]

If I had a nickel for every time Discord interrupted my fun, I'd have three nickels.

...Which isn't a lot, but it's strange that it happened three times.

[ExplosionMare 26,219]

As chaotic as he is, it's a shame he isn't four a counting game such as this.

[Astralshy 30,495]

I'm sure he only wants a high five
