Got some new Fallout is Dragons coming your way! (Assuming the upload doesn’t blow up while I’m asleep!)
Session 48 - Prison in the Sky: Libsyn YouTube

Speaking of Fallout is Dragons, I’ll be doing a special livestream over at my hitbox.tv channel sometime between 9PM and midnight Pacific time on Monday night/Tuesday morning. See, Fallout 4 will be launching at that time, and thanks to the generosity of a fan, I already have it as a gift! I’ve previously done a Fallout is Dragons-themed run of Fallout: New Vegas… So I plan on reprising that theme when Fallout 4 launches. I have no idea who’ll be awake to see it live, but it should be fun!

Cherry Jubilee: Well, I’ll let you catch up with your friends. See you back at the ranch!
Twilight Sparkle: I’m rolling Insight on both of them. <roll> <roll>
DM: As far as you can tell right now, Cherry Jubilee seems to be on the level. And Applejack… Applejack starts sweating the moment Cherry turns to leave.
Rainbow Dash: A “change of scenery?” What, were those her exact words?
DM: As a reminder, we’re assuming her cellphone is off for the rest of the night. She’s put her trust in me to play this the way she intended. So no double-guessing. Anyway, Applejack collects herself and says…
Applejack: It’s no big deal, yeeall. ’s ’xactly how it sounds. Needed a break after the rodeo. Cherries ‘re a nice vacation from apples. So I took the job. That’s it. End of story.
Pinkie Pie: That’s it? That’s the story? It doesn’t even have a third act! You’ll never sell your autobiographical screenplay that way!
Rainbow Dash: Priorities, Pinkie.
Twilight Sparkle: You didn’t answer my question. Do you need help with your Gala ticket?
Applejack: That’s taken care of.
Fluttershy: So Jubilee isn’t threatening or charming you…?
Applejack: Oh, geez. Cherry ain’t no warlock or mafia don. She’s orchard folk like me. And Ah’m a grown mare who can make ‘er own choices. Ah’d prefer it if y’all respect that. Look, Ah’ll be back by next week or the week after. Have fun with whatever yer doin’ ‘til then. Later.
Twilight Sparkle: She’s obviously hiding something important.
Pinkie Pie: Or else why would the DM let us go all this way?
Fluttershy: That’s a bit too meta, but…
Rainbow Dash: Huh. Didn’t expect the Element of Honesty to be tough to crack.
Rarity: Well, keep in mind, this is a slightly different Applejack than the one we’re used to. Simply put, the DM is a naturally better liar than she is. This won’t be easy.
DM: Gee… thanks?
