      You stuck that landing...painfully, but also living, plus the money that would’ve been used for airfare now goes to hospital bills...which would be about the same as long as you had insurance...(trying to find a positive)...you got home quick :P (also despite it being over a month since BronyCon, I wanted to thank you again for helping to make it more memorable for me. I never expected anyone that I followed to recognize me, and that really made it the most special convention I’ve ever been to [yes, more special than the time I met Steve Blum and talked to him using his Guilmon voice and he responded as Guilmon]. Again, thanks for helping making my BronyCon my favorite convention experience 😊)

      Look at it this way. In many cartoons and animations, a lot of bazookas/rocket launchers have ammo fired out the rear. Plus it's a weapon on Firebrand's base, would you really put it past the guards to load the ammo backwards. Think about it, if they......
      Mistake a black griffon for Firebrand
      Treat new recruits like ammo
      Set the base on fire and injure themselves because they think pain is fun
      Get distracted by cupcakes and let anyone on base
      Do you really think they wouldn't want to load every weapon backwards just to see what would happen?

    Here's the rub: Everything I have heard is that Heath Ledger's death was unrelated to his role as The Joker, and primarily related to general sleep issues/sleeping pill issues.
    2: Nightmare Moon could have used Celestia's power to make the moon life giving like the sun, so there's no day, and just eternal night. Thus, Earth Ponies can still grow things, but everyone is still subjugated by Nightmare Moon.
    3: Celestia might have been trying to overact, keeping herself from being onstage. Or perhaps Celestia wasn't acting at first, and then played up how bad her acting was because she was pissed at Twilight.
    4: ...Y'all women are hypocrites.

      About point #2, considering that, in Princess Twilight Sparkle Part 1, when Luna causes Eternal Night 1000 years ago, she does so through a solar eclipse that ends with the moon basically absorbing the sun, that seems to be exactly what happened.

    I know Heath accidentally killed himself via sleep medication BUT Jared Leto is sooo much worse; he'd never break character and sent live rats to his co-stars.
    Edit: I really hate how Celestia can act but she buggers on stage. She proved that she can do the thing as soon as the pressure was off of her, which doesn't make any sense since she does public speaking as a princess. How the hell can't she act?
    Also, I feel her teachers failed her. They surprised her with sudden improv expecting her to just get the hint and join in, yet I'd I was caught off guard like that, I'd be like, "what box?"
    All they had to do was say, "pretend with us," and give her some actual direction and there wouldn't have been a conflict but noooooo; we had to contrive a conflict for a moral we've learned 12 times already. Christ.
    Also, honesty at all costs is a fallacy. We have to lie to people sometimes less we risk social prosecution, whether it's a lost promotion, being exiled from the friend group or being banned from your favorite hangouts/stores because you made the mistake of befriending a Trisha.
    And considering all the personal drama you've been in with a certain grey Pegasus, I can't believe you're promoting this moral without any sense of irony.

    I decided to look at some rates on broken bones on equines. Simple would be easy however since it's multiple applied I think complex fracture would apply on the medical bill. A complex feature on a single leg is at worst $3,000 with 4-6 months of physical therapy, given the situation I think we can apply 3 if not all 4 legs to be broken, which is $12,000 for the surgeries to fix then since a casket is not enough given equine structure. Add any addition bones an that insurance MAY NOT cover them for the legs since they tend to be euthanized, broken ribs need to be seen an depending on how bad they are will usually need bed rest on monitoring, however drugs for pain is another thing. Based on these assumptions we can probably estimate the total to be around $16,000. However since a person who is legally their an had damage on purpose in a installation, then the lawsuit is gonna be hard if Firebrand was the individual, which he was to be held liable. Unfortunately we can be seeing the max of $100,000 based on broken ribs with a car, given its with a weapon the total is at least $116,000 from Firebrand for damages, Ari, see if you can settle this out of court. It maybe equestria, but I am sure the amount is you will have to pay for damages is still large as the individual, not the installation.
