Description

Page 315 - Up Down All Around
After doing the whole “THIIIIS IS RANTING” schtick on Page 310, a mostly dialogue-less page down the line is probably just what the doctor ordered.
I deliberately didn’t leave an Author’s Note on Page 310 because, well, I couldn’t think of anything to follow it up that wouldn’t diminish the punchline. But writing it was actually an interesting process.
That joke, that punchline - the reversal of the whining scene - was planned pretty much since… probably as far back as the beginning of Dragonshy. But when the time came to write the script for that page, I realized I didn’t know what the rant would actually contain. It needed to be a real rant. It needed to make sense, even if only its own twisted kind of sense. And while I don’t like ranting about ponies if I can avoid it, I think it made the punchline even stronger than I had initially imagined.

Pinkie Pie: This. Is. AWESOME!
Applejack: This is ridiculous.
Rainbow Dash: This is… alright. It’s pretty cool. …I-I mean, I’ve seen cooler.
