And now, a cringe-inducing bit where Flim and Flam try (and probably fail) to convince you to join my Patreon!

"It's the absolute worst!" Flim yelled, cartwheeling in front of the conveniently-placed pile of dynamite. "There's nothing there, really--you should join my Patreon instead, where you'll get access to my OnlyFlams posts for the low, low price of your soul and half of your pocket change! Unlike a certain somepony, who only offers marker-scented markers."

Flam glared at his brother. "Yes, brother, but unlike both your offerings and the exclusive early-access chapters for the $5 tier and up, my Patreon account also features my plans for future world-domination! In fact, it will be so successful, that magic will no longer be necessary!"

"What a load a' phooey." Flim spat. He heaved a brand-spankin' new Heccbochs Too over his head, bringing the gaem masheeen crashing down on Flam's head. Because it happened to be made out of flimsy cardboard, nothing happened.

"Ha." Flam echoed the narrator. "Nothing happened. Just like the wasteland of few-and-far-between posts updating every Patron on a Patreon-exclusive story, 'Fractures'! Wait hold on, I didn't mean to say that, what gi--"

"I AM THE NARRATOR." Narrator boomed overhead. "I HAVE PUT WORDS IN YOUR MOUTH."

"Nooooooooo!" Flam cried. "$5 and up gets you extended Youtube story readings of up to 20k words instead of the standard 10k!!!1!!"

Flim smacked his brother upside the head. "Get ahold of yourself! A $15 all-in tier featuring everything from before plus patron-only Q&As is far less than it sounds like, because the only thing you get for the extra $5 over the $10 tier is the aforementioned Q&A, and oh boy, are we getting more and more shill-y by the sentence of what?"

"We are, brother!" Flam narrowly avoided another smack. "The $15 tier is by far the lowest bang-for-your-buck simply because the narrator ran out of ideas on what to offer on that tier compared to the $5 and $10 ones! The benefits shared across all three tiers are special Discord channels, a shout-out in longer Youtube videos and on Tonkus's user page, and access to Fractures the story! These basic perks exist as part of the low-cost $1 tier! Now please, end my suffering!"

The universe proceeded to collapse out of mercy for the suffering of Flim and Flam. Join my Patreon because I'm a broke college student reee.
