There's no art here.

[Equius sounds disgruntled and put upon, and he's scowling crabbily.]

I've lived here for almost a full sweep, and I haven't been able to find a single art gallery or museum here with anything interesting! Isn't there anyone here who knows anything about art? Or has some from their home world?

[Vatheon should run in fear. First robots, now horses? They are never going to run out of things to stop talking about. The only way it could be better would be if Equius liked puppets, too.]

What's not to like? I had a lot of art of them back home.

[Video]

[stayb100ponyboy]

[Well, Equius hasn't had that much exposure to puppets. Maybe he'd like them if he spent more time around them?]

You did? I don't suppose you brought any with you, did you?

[shippingmath]

Left it all on my computer or my walls, so no. [Well, he probably has some on his shades, but he hasn't found a way to get them connected to the SFC, and he's not about to hand them off to a stranger. Especially not a stranger who has cracked shades.] Locals might have something worth keeping, but I doubt it.

[stayb100ponyboy]

[Man, everyone is ragging on Equius' cracked shades these days!]

That's unfortunate. I would have liked to have seen it.

And yes, I agree. I'm sure most of the local art would involve fish and other silliness. Even if we had a space to exhibit art, we'd need to gather some quality examples.

[shippingmath]

[Hey, if you crack his shades you kill his AR! And he can't have that. He is responsible for it.]

Well, they might have seahorses. Better than nothing, I guess, but not by much. I see you're talking about making a gallery of your own. If you want help with that, I could lend a hand.

[Video]

[stayb100ponyboy]

Yeah? I'd appreciate it if you wanted to help. I'm not worried about building the facility, but finding art to fill it might be challenging.

[shippingmath]

[Equius... probably has no idea what he just agreed to. His museum is now going to be about 200% more ironic.]

Well, I'll get working. [Yes, he has to start now. Strider projects are by necessity over the top. And this isn't just going to be a Pony Pals rewrite. It's going to have to be better than that.] Let me know when you're closer to needing the actual art.

[stayb100ponyboy]

[If the project Dirk has in mind is anything like the art in his room, which Equius has of course never seen because that would just be silly, Equius will love it.]

I certainly will.

[Also, for the record, Equius would probably devour Pony Pals rewrites.]

[Video]

[shippingmath]

[In that case, DIrk might just go to the Nostalgia Nook to make Equius a copy. Even if that's kind of regifting.]

Cool. Later, then.

[Video]

[stayb100ponyboy]

Later.

/CASUALLY CUTS IN

[oceanbreasts]

Aw shit, D-Stride, looks like you've got yourself a new biffle.

[ LOOK AT YOU TWO AREN'T YOU PRECIOUS.

And yes she's talking to him.

From inside the house.

With the SFC.

Shut up. ]

cuts in on the cut-in... cutception

[stayb100ponyboy]

Rose?

[He didn't know Rose was back!]

[oceanbreasts]

Oh. Oops! Looks like one of you didn't get the memo.

Name's Roxy Lalonde. Rose is kinda basically like my mom but not actually. Cool, huh?

[stayb100ponyboy]

Oh.

[Equius sounds a little disappointed.]

I knew Rose. She was my friend.

[oceanbreasts]

She was friends with a whole buncha ya, I guess!

[ There's a moment where she's quiet, briefly, then... ]

What can you tell me about her?

[stayb100ponyboy]

She was extremely classy. I thought she was a highblood at first, before I understood about humans, because she spoke so well and was so gracious.

[Rose was the first person in Vatheon he decided to ignore the hemospectrum for, in the interest of getting to know her better, actually.]

Was she your ancestor?

[oceanbreasts]

[ FUCKING CHINHANDS yes this is good stuff this is what she likes to hear about Rose. ]

Somethin' like that, yeah! We're def related but there's all sorts of bullshit time shenaningans involved.

[stayb100ponyboy]

Understandable. It's like that with the trolls here as well.

But if Rose is your ancestor, you should be honored and proud. She's a classy, dignified individual and a fine example of humanity.

[oceanbreasts]

Oh hells yeah, I'm all kindsa proud of her. She fought against the Batterwitch until the day she disappeared over the falls. You better believe I'm proud of being a Lalonde.

[shippingmath]

[No, it's cool, they can do this all the time. It's nostalgic or something. Also ironic.]

Looks like it. Touching as hell, isn't it?

[No, but really, he's happy with this turn of events.]

[oceanbreasts]

My bromance sirens are going off like cuh-razy.

[shippingmath]

If he plays his cards right, he might even be able to obtain the coveted position of 'best bro.' Bros everywhere will weep at this lost opportunity.

[oceanbreasts]

DRAMATIC GASP.

I won't tell Jake.

[shippingmath]

[LETS JUST IGNORE THE FACT THAT HE'S NOT HERE TO TELL. That's a thing they're going to do. Same as they've been doing with Jane.]

Good. I'm sure he wouldn't take the news well, considering he's held the title for the last three years at least.

[oceanbreasts]

[ She puts a finger to her lips and winks dramatically. ]

Mum's the word.
