Go To

A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

All of the usual forum rules apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

     Original OP text 
I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

@Ike: I know it might seem strange, but perhaps giving your sister the freedom is what she needs. Giving her the freedom puts her in a new saddle (or double edged sword as you humans would put it). If she has freedom, she will want to avoid the old ways that frustrate her. She'll have no one to blame but herself if she can't shape up. At least, that is how it will ideally work.

Again, I hope you guys come out ok.

@Ike: Yeah, it would basically have to be a proof of concept, i.e. you prove that no, giving her freedom just makes it worse. Then again, from how you describe it, I doubt that would keep her from complaining.

I suppose we could give her a chance. The problem is, mom won't let her because she won't do her work already. Once again, it's catch 22. Neither of them is likely to give in without a fight.

@Irish: That defeats the purpose of the joke!

@Ike: In that case, I'd just stay out of it and let them work through it themselves.

Easier said than done. It's hard for me not to try to intervene.

[up][up]Yeah, if Rotund Boobie shows up before it, then it wouldn't make sense to back away from the obvious joke, would it? tongue

If anything, the point would just be to get the joke out of the way ASAP so we don't have to worry about it.

Odd thought of the day. Would a zombie vulture try eating itself?

A zombie vulture would just feed on the living.

Anyway, I have to get to bed, so see you all later.

Don't ask me why, but only humans can become zombies. Has something to do with the voodoo interacting with the soul of the corpse. Basically, if the thing had free will while alive, you get a zombie. If not, you get a thrall.

but only humans can become zombies.

Actually,

"Zombie" is an acquired template that can be added to any corporeal creature (other than an undead) that has a skeletal system (referred to hereafter as the base creature).

@Irish: But what about ponies? Can ponies become zombies?

[up]Assuming it's the sapient MLP kind of pony, yes. A real-life pony? Not so much.

Again, I'm not a voodoo expert here. I just know I've never seen a zombie that couldn't think before it died.

Sadly, it doesn't look like D&D has any regular vultures, so no Zombie Vultures. You can however have a Zombie Dire Vulture.

Vultures and such may not have a human-level intellect, but they can certainly think.

Now, dolphin zombies might be possible. Dolphins are supposed to be pretty intelligent.

Human-vulture chimeras?

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...
