And if you destroy reality, what's next? It's more fun to toy with, really.

GSO just shrugged and took it in stride. Mostly:::

corporeal realignment is the strangest experience i have ever experienced. Even our spiral of death and respawning back in the bar never felt this weird.

hmm. So then Wordswell. What did the Mayor want with you?

 

[Caldwin]

*sigh*
Can't a pony play a simple arcade game without the doom and gloom of death and taxes?

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

You think you can escape taxes? That's adorable.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

"You people pay your taxes?"

 

[Caldwin]

Well of course. You know what brought down Al Capone, right?

 

[GodSentinelOmega]

Plus, do you know what her Mayoral Highness does to people who don’t pay her taxes?

 

[Caldwin]

You think you can escape taxes? That's adorable.

Just realized how this seems to imply that I can escape death.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

I mean, you can escape Death, but he's a persistent bugger. Always finds you again sooner or later.

 

[GodSentinelOmega]

Haven’t we killed death a few times? I swear the ferryman down in hell got drowned a few times.

 

[MEDdMI]

He'll be back.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

Yeah, it turns out there's a Death for Death. And then another Death for that Death. And then another, and another. I'm not sure if they're infinite, recursive, or just respawning, but they didn't run out before I got bored, so I wouldn't push your luck on that.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

These are the questions that keep me up at night.

And yet I remember getting chewed out for killing him just once.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

Well yeah, that Death was just three days from retirement. We had the party booked and everything and they wouldn't give us our deposit back. Really inconvenient, man.

 

[MEDdMI]

Also, he showed us those photos of his family in his wallet, and talked about how he was gonna change his life for the better, and things were looking up for the first time in a long time.

 

[Caldwin]

Well, good thing I killed him then. There's no hope allowed in hell!

The brown pony shrugged, in so far as a quadruped could shrug. "Legal advice." he said offhandedly. "Though I don't know exactly what she's expecting me to do, it's not as though I know anything about law here in this... wherever I am."

Looking around, he added, "To that end, anyone know where I can find a library?"

 

[Caldwin]

Well, off hand I'd say you may want to start over there. *points to building with the sign "library of law and everything else you need to know to run a city"*

Hey, found this on the second page. I'll bump it this time, but I'm going to need you guys to up your post whoring. There are trophies after all.
