Chase Q&A is now dead · 1:29am Jun 17th, 2014
Sorry, it died last night when I went to bed.
There will be another one soonish.
She's looking at you. Yes you. And she is judging you with her eyes. There is no escape.

To Sparkler: that´s, probably, not the last nor the worst case of mares being used as "money"...what you gonna do if more mares come to ask to join the herd for safety too ?
Bucky, how goes the experimentation?
2212369
Sparkler: I can't save them all, I understand that. I can hold my head high knowing that I saved two. And that's enough. When father purges the Isles things will get better here.
2212377
Bucky: It just started. Nothing yet.
to rainbow dash who's faster you or spitfire
2212384
Rainbow Dash: Me, of course.
I might be fast, but Spitfire is easy.
To derpy what is your favorite type of muffin and why does dinky has the last name hooves
2212394
Have you found an endless references to a muffin obsession in this fic that I don't know about? Get rid of your preconceived notions. It will do you harm later.
2212404
I know but pinkie pie is forcing me to do this
Pinke: GET BACK TO TYPING OR I'LL BRING THE CHAINSAW
oh god some one help me please O,O
To RD, Fluttershy, or Twilight as they'd know best: How are orphans handled by the flock?
2212417
Depends on whose orphans. The flock looks after its own. Those outside the flock have others who will look after them.
Again to Sparkler: yes, it´s very clear you know that there are limits to what you can do, and you made a brave thing saving those two. But foals WILL come to you, pledging, begging for help. Are you ready to say no to then ?
2212454
Sparkler: I will have to be a responsible alpha and do what is best for my herd.
To...whoever can best answer it. What exactly did the sweeps entail? Or more plainly, what happened during one? Did the ponies responsible for carrying them out just kick down doors and grab any foal they could find, or was it less brutal in execution (though the sweeps were brutal no matter how you look at them, of course.)?
2212468
Author: Very similar to what happened in Ireland and Scotland long ago.
They would go through, round up every foal they could find, leave behind the weakest and sickliest, a few healthy ones, and then take the majority.
And look the shithole sort of place the Isles are too. Makes it so much easier to do when you justify it as "saving the foals" and doing the right thing. It comes off as an act of charity.
To anypony who wants to answer: If there were one for you, what would your element of harmony be? (Not necessarily restricted to the canon 6.)
2212520
Not sure how to answer this.
To Rising Star: Now, i know that you chose this and you really do care for and want to help Sparkler, but do you have any idea what you got yourself into?
To Sparkler: What would you have done if Thistle ended up having to become part of your herd?
To Bucky: When you perge the island, what are your plans for afterwards? Are you going to immediately go back to Ponyville or what?
To the author: I apologize for missing this bit of info in the story and am to lazy to go back and search for it. But did Ponyville ever officially rejoin Equestria?
2212532
One question per post.
2212538
*sigh* sorry, must have skimmed over that.
To Bucky: When you perge the island, what are your plans for afterwards? Are you going to immediately go back to Ponyville or what?
2212546
Bucky: The herd must come to a consensus on Thistle. Ultimately, the decision is Derpy's as she is the alpha.
2212532
Rising Star: No idea, but I know that forming a herd was important to Sparkler, and I was open to the idea. Just wasn't it expecting it now.
2212532
Sparkler: Keg Smasher would never allow that. He's made his feelings clear.
2212532
Twilight Sparkle: Still separate for now until the war is over.
Bucky: according to law your daughter will have to consummate her marriage with Rising, are you going to try annul the hearding? If not, are you gonna help them with some 'family planning'? (You could always lock his balls in an extra dimensional space)
2212659
Bucky: They know their own spells for that. It is time to be responsible.
Why would I annul what they have done? Sparkler would never trust me again. Better to help them live with what they have done than it is to try and punish them.
To Celestia: are you worried that bucky will go "mad with power" since he is now a type four and has a strong protection mentality? Do you have plans to stop him if he does go crazy?
2212684
Celestia isn't in full knowledge of this is she... I mean, has she spoken to Bucky recently?
She believed that he was either a high functioning three or a low functioning four after the Ponyville incident.
How exactly would she know the answer to your question?
2212703 didnt she say to him that after his surge at ponyville he is now a type four?
2212713
I just said that in my post.
The truth is he is a high functioning four. But she doesn't know that.
To keg smasher: now that you see what bucky can do, will you try to keep him and his herd on the isles?
Rising Star: aren't you glad Bucky trusts and respects you enough to not kill you for marrying his daughter without permission. Seriously you young ponies, always getting ahead of yourselves. Sparkler got hers for not trusting the adults, yours is a much heavier punishment, the yolk of responsibility.
2212717 ahhh ok, thanks for clearing it up
2212718
Keg Smasher: He is a free pony. I have no desire to force him to do anything. Might talk to him about it though.
To any high level unicorn/alicorn: why do you float when casting high power spells? Also why do your eyes shine?
2212720
Rising Star: I am a little concerned about it. Having a wife with a busted face and a broken leg is worrisome, and I am responsible for her. I will do what is necessary. I have seen how Bucky is with his foals, and I am his son now. I have nothing to be afraid of.
2212726
Bucky: Gravity is one of the many laws we can break with magic. The white eyes are a result of a flooding of the thaumatilogical system flooding the body with excessive raw mana. It is an evolved warning sign provided by nature. Warning: contents may be full of death magic.
2212732 do you get a feeling of vertigo or temporary blindness afterwords?
2212737
Author: Maybe a little bit of dizziness.
2212727
Dammit kid, look at you cool as a cucumber and not a speck of inner turmoil. I'd think a skinny virgin such as your self would be Wracked with performance anxiety, it is your wedding night after all. And two mares... hehe Good luck boy.
To clan Bucky: (would be happy if the foals answered to) What are your feelings on the damage done to Bucky by the Shadow Wolves and how do you think the pony's back home will take it (especially Celestia).
2212753
That is more of a wall of text type question.
2212750
Rising Star: Broken leg... I would be an awful husband if I forced myself upon her in her current condition.
2212758 Then let me revise it. After reading the last few chapters I'm more interested in Dinky and pina's answer (especially pina). As well as Bucky's take on Celestia's reaction.
I know this will be a seriously unpleasant question; but after reading a few other responses i just want to know...something. During the summer months the nights are cold, bitterly so, and a family was stuck having to use a marriage to get food. During the winter months the cold would be brutal. Food would be even more scarce, and more necessary. Were there any families that had to pass foals to the sweep instead of having to watch them starve to death? -Note- the sweeps still are completely wrong -End-Note-, but where does the line in the ground stand? Families are so important, but what do they do when it's death or permanent separation? .....eugh.....sucky-crappy-horrible situation.
To Dinky: First thing you're going to do back in Ponyville?
To Filthy Rich:
How are you and Diamond Tiara doing with the events in ponyville? I haven't heard anything about what's going on there, and figured I asked.
Hey, Thistle, are kelpies photosynthetic to any degree?
To Pina: What's the first thing you want to do when you get back to Ponyville (besides not cry )
2212524
Basically asking any characters you choose to answer what they perceive as their greatest strength.
