Well, you know what they say: The beauty of a pun is in the “Oi” of the beholder.

I apologize for absolutely nothing.

Anyway, the recruiting for my upcoming Pony Tales game (cleverly titled Fallout is Dragons) is well underway. I’ve got enough character concepts to really start comparing and locking in player choices. For now, I’ll be looking to check in with the applicants on Skype. (I’m ‘newbiespud’ there, natch.)

Twilight Sparkle: So how are we going to get the jump on this Taraxippus?
PM: The easiest way would be to ambush it! And you know who would be great for that? Pinkie Pie!
Twilight Sparkle: <sigh>
Pinkie Pie: C’mon, I predicted every time the Taraxippus caused trouble. All we gotta do is follow my twitches, and we’ll NAB that ghost!
Twilight Sparkle: Okay, first of all, you predicted the disasters, not what was behind them.
Applejack: Just take the freebie, Twi.
Twilight Sparkle: I can’t! Something about this whole thing is bothering me. How does Pinkie Sense even work?
PM: I dunno.
Twilight Sparkle: How can you not know?? It’s your creation!
PM: I dunno, it’s like those instincts old people seem to have, y’know? But, like, turned up to eleven.
Twilight Sparkle: I get that! But what’s the scientific explanation? Heck, what’s the magical explanation?
Fluttershy: Twilight… We really need to stop the Taraxippus. She’s giving us a way. Can we focus on that, please?
Twilight Sparkle: Fine, fine. But while we’re waiting for her Pinkie Sense, I want to study it.
PM: Study? What do you mean?
(beat)
Pinkie Pie: You want to hook me up to an egg?
Twilight Sparkle: No, an E-E-… … … I hate you so much right now.
PM: Ah, you love it.
