Page 1092 - Beyond Time and Grace

Honestly, after sitting on this page for a while not entirely sure how to start this scene, I think Rarity’s just annoyed that there’s finally a character who can match her for prose / ham / pretentiousness (depending on how generous you’re feeling).

Discord GM: Hello? May I?
Rarity: Yes. Erm… Weren’t there supposed to be two of you?
Discord GM: Sorry, change of plans. Your regularly scheduled DM is temporarily managing some of the others, and since you’re a more experienced player… But I know how this looks. Strange new member of the group, one-on-one in a separate room – if you’re not comfortable, I can go back and…
Rarity: Oh, no, it’s perfectly fine. <sigh> This will at least be a good opportunity to pick your brain in return.
Discord GM: Indeed. Tell me a good old-fashioned “battle of wits” isn’t right up your alley.
Rarity: It’s easy to win a game where you’re holding all the cards. But I’ll play.
Discord GM: I get the sense that you actually have mixed feelings about this.
Rarity: Deep down, suspicion is my natural state of being. Don’t take it personally.
Discord GM: Does that mean being suspicious of others or being suspected by others?
Rarity: I’d say “both,” but I’m beginning to wonder if that gag is getting a little played-out. Now, shall we begin with our scene?
Discord GM: Very well. <ahem> You run into a rock wall.
Rarity: …Great start.
