Page 649 - The Dream Job, Part 10

We’re hitting all the staples with this arc! Any stories about convincing an enemy guard to cut you some slack or even change sides?

Blarg, no MTM this week. But I’ve got stuff in the works so that there’ll be way more wasteland content coming in the near future…

SFX: (WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE)
Pinkie Pie: I didn’t drop it, did I?
SFX: (PLINK)
DM: Nope. The key to the cells wiggles out of your mane.
Pinkie Pie: That second roll was a Thievery check! I decided to take a cue from OUR Rarity and try sneaky stuff!
Rarity: I’m… honestly quite flattered.
Pinkie Pie: ^_
SFX: (WINK WINK)
Spike: Alright, now let’s get to Ponyville. Rarity’s still gotta be inside that Nightmare, or at least that’s what I overheard. We gotta go save her!
Jerome: H-Hey! Stop!
Rainbow Dash: How nice of you to join us! Heh!
Jerome: You laugh, but you’ve barely had any rest. I can take you down myself!
Applejack: Except for the fact taht a Majestic Word will turn things around real quick.
Jerome: You still underestimate me! Everyone does! I’m sick of it!
Pinkie Pie: Underestimate you? And those sick dance moves? How could anyone not respect you?
Applejack: Ah’m sensin’ some deep-seated issues here.
Jerome: Oh, what’s the use? Larry changes his name and puts on a scary face and gets promoted. I work hard and what do I get? Nothin’!
Fluttershy: I had no idea being a nightmare was so hard.
Twilight Sparkle: Could we help you?
Jerome: Gah! No! I see what you’re doing. Trying to persuade the “nice guy?” Well, I’ll tell you what! I am NOT falling for that cliché!
