Week four

[letsplayamod]

Two more of your fellow gods, your companions, your friends, have met their end together. As you turn in for the night, and a new week dawns upon you, it's starting to be a bitter experience. Just how much of this will you be forced to take?

But all isn't just despair. The morning is brighter than the last. The storm clouds that previously plagued almost every day have dissipated, and this week brings plenty of sun and a friendlier breeze. Not to mention, another floor of this strange temple has revealed itself. Whatever lies within is your domain, not Typhon's. Keep it tight in your grasp, because you never know when you'll lose it.

[ What else did you think she was going to do with it! At least for the moment, she just frowns critically. ]

A bit of an odd taste to it.

[literarybehemoth]

[THE WHOLE THING, THOUGH.........]

...Well. I tend to smoke it or rub my face into it, really.

[raisethemoon]

[ WHY ELSE WOULD IT BE CONVIENTLY BITE-SIZED AND WRAPPED UP LIKE A BURRITO ]

Ah! Like in a pipe?

[literarybehemoth]

Or like a cigarette, yes. ...Do you have those? I am not sure how universal they are.

[raisethemoon]

Mmm...no, we do not...if it was like this, that is very small to be managed by most ponies.

[ Even if the hooves can stick to things, they're still not exactly dexterous. ]

[literarybehemoth]

Ah, I see. ...That may explain why horses do favor pipes back home, thinking about it; I never actually thought to ask...

[raisethemoon]

No doubt! I have never picked up the habit, but we certainly have those.

[ .....hm. She sits down rather suddenly. ]

My, that is strange.

[literarybehemoth]

Even so, I think that it would not be too much different from holding...

[ah.]

Ah. Did it hit?

[raisethemoon]

Ah...perhaps?

[ SOMETHING sure is happening! ]

Is that...supposed to happen?

[literarybehemoth]

It's fairly instantaneous for us, but we are also considerably smaller. So yes, I presume it is.

[raisethemoon]

It is not unpleasant.

[ Though she imagines the experience is not quite the same - she is a good deal larger. ]

[literarybehemoth]

I imagine you would have to take considerably more to get the full effect.

[he kind of... lounges...]

If you happen upon them from the... [he kind of waggles his finger at the cornucopia] ...thing... you ought to save them up.

[raisethemoon]

Mmmm. Probably. Since we are here.

[ Not that she is above such things back home, but........you know, here. ]

Celestia would not have liked it, but I suppose she will not find out now.

[literarybehemoth]

Well. More for us, if she is not interested.

[hehehehehe.]

[raisethemoon]

Ha ha ha! Yes!

[ She lounges a little, delighted. ]

She might herself. Maybe. But I think that it would be different for me.

[literarybehemoth]

Everyone has their own experiences, I am sure. With this or otherwise.

[raisethemoon]

Oh - no, no. She can only be overprotective. Especially of late.

[literarybehemoth]

But you are an adult, are you not? You do not have to listen to that.

[raisethemoon]

Mm, well. It is more complicated than that. One might say that I am still in recovery from the entire...moon situation.

[literarybehemoth]

Ah, I see. That does make sense... even so, there is a certain level of autonomy you should be allowed given that you have clearly made progress.

[raisethemoon]

...I went to Ponyville for Nightmare Night. It is a holiday borne of my legend, where they sacrifice candy to me in effigy so that I will not come and consume them.

[literarybehemoth]

...

Ah. I am beginning to understand a bit more why she may be, then...

[raisethemoon]

They said that they enjoyed being scared. I did end up having fun! But...

[ well you know we still have the Fuck Luna Specifically festival ]

[literarybehemoth]

Well, given that you are the person the festival is about, perhaps you can... encourage a different direction for it. Many cultures do have festivals about scaring away evil spirits and scaring each other in the process as a sort of... catharsis, I suppose. It is enjoyable to experience scary situations while knowing they are technically safe.

[hmmmm...]

You could encourage some kind of contest, perhaps. For the scariest decorations and costumes.

[raisethemoon]

Ah - yes, I suppose I could try to do something like that.

[ It makes the focus a little less on her, at any rate... ]
