Missing an end quote.
hehehe, all of these communication methods is making me think of Star Wars.
Bucky should conjure some dry ice & water right before he goes into a room, to make a good fog effect.
It's like they are playing Good Cop, Bad Cop. But Instead It's Good Cop, Joker Dressed as a Cop. Can't really think of a better way to put it as I can't think of anyone else mad enough to compare Bucky too.
Hahahaahahaha Even with inexperience Twilight is still intelligent!
(unlike what some people who were thinking she is a dumb-dumb )
Oh, you poor fool. The mess hall is not where you invite carnivores who've had food sent over especially for them. You had perfectly fine herbivore food on your ship, after all.
Honestly, one would imagine that after number three or four they would realize there was little sense wasting ink.
Also, been wondering this: can griffons purr like cats?
5237464
My griffons do.
5237472 That's... that's adorable.
LAL Twoilaight is teh stoopid
To be honest, I didn't foresee it being a ruse, but I wasn't going to call her out as being STUPID, either. She can be emotional, and Bucky is REALLY good at manipulating ponies. It made sense for him to get the nuances of the situation that she may have overlooked.
5237464
Well, with a new king, you get hopeful.
And for a while, you get lucky. A king really does hold to the treaty and all is well. And then that king is stabbed in frigging eye with a dagger and BAM!
The new king launches a sneak attack.
5237474
They have to be happy though. There is a scene coming... be on the lookout.
5237483 And we've come full circle and back to the idealism versus cynicism debate that life seems to repeat ad infinitum.
When will the servant v.s. master vote happen if you don't mind my inquiry
5237566
**Shrugs.**
Soon?
How soon do you want it?
That seemed WAY too easy.
5237594
Huginn and Muninn no longer exist.
Hey, let's piss off the ponies responsible for whatever it was that happened there!
I don´t know if you noted but, twice during this conversation Bucky, very subtle, threatened to extend complet obliteration and hundred years of blizzard towards the Sea of Grass, in order to...help...the Council understand the consequences of trying to do something against him and his gryp...grif...grrr....flying cats !
AS someone already said: When I am good, I´m great, but when I´m bad, I´m even better !
Bucky is executing a perfect political monuver. The alliance will mean a trade agreement and legitimizing the new Equestrian government. Protection in exchange for food and economic stability.
Bucky hasn't surrendered he has set up the framework for puppeteering the Tradewinds state.
The subtle reminder of the Griffin fate is an assertion of Equestrian domaniance. This 'peace treaty' will be in realty the surrender to Bucky even if it is worded in the opposite.
clever of them, very clever.
though the truth about the clipped wings is that it is a temporary thing. when a bird molts they replace bad feathers.
5237681
Which can be re-clipped.
5237680
I, uh, don't know what you are talking about.
5237690 simply saying their disablity is only temporary for now. a lot of the gryphons seemed to think it is permenant.
5237704
Because it keeps happening, thus, it is permanent.
5237708
Did no one tell them about the stairs?
5237719
I warned you about stairs, bro.
I love the subtle "don't forget you're dealing with the alicorn who embodies the summary metaphysical forces of reality, and the crazy, maimed, one-eyed, replaced his own horn with lightning glass, now responsible for two cities buried for centuries and the remainder of the griffin race, meating eating, War Chief of Equestria. Neither one of us is in a very good mood after the sneak attack that lead to us having to waste so much time killing thousands of griffins who just wouldn't sit down and talk things out" diplomacy that Bucky and Twilight are using. it's my favorite type of diplomacy, the "it has been too short a time for you to have forgotten why you don't fuck with me" kind.
5237708 self delusion can be as potent as any other form of brainwashing.
5237746
Hey! I resemble that remark!
Wait....
5237734
I told you dog!
5237695 okay...Have I misunderstood something? Tradewinds is a city and part of the grass something. They were at war with the Griffen kingdom and now have recognized Bucky as the king. Given his strength they have no hope for defense but he has surrendered.
Then while dropping reminders oof his power he makes them afraid and then offers an alliance.
This alliance would be with a vastly stronger nation of equestria. Clearly the Tradewinds will offer a trade agreement at discount effectively buying equestrian protection for food to feed their citizens.
In words the treaty will be the surrender of Bucky. In reality it will be the be in equestrian favor.
5237570 As soon as we can get that cute little gryphon sharpshooter/bucky based turret voted into being the lord of winters wife?
This chapter pleases me. You may write another, sir.
5237873
I still don't know what you are talking about... the treaty is perfectly legit.
(This is the second attempt at subtle acknowledgement)
5237923
Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, "Say no more...."
Awesome political wrangling. Although a concern bothers me about the potential for the continuation of a world war. The Griffins provided the fanatical drive that matched with Nazi Germany but what about the Diamond Dogs and Minotaur presence? Will they be akin to the Japanese and Italian branches of the Axis Powers still posing a threat? Or possibly a Cold War? Or may this turn into an Equestrian War on Terror when both sides blame it on unscrupulous business dealers and fanatics?
...or maybe I'm seeing mountains in molehills?

But when a person is brutalized by another person, they curl up in a corner and wait to die. Sentient brains have too many loops and feedback issues; if you get someone into an actual bout of depression, they'll usually have a terrbily hard time just 'snapping out of it'. And when that depression is bred intot he populace, and enforce regularly, you end up with something like the house elves in Harry Potter. A race so dedicated to being slaves, that to seek freedom is considered strange. The domestic griffon population likely had only a couple more centuries of oppression before they'd be at a point in which they lobby for the right to remain enslaved when 'rescued'. As it stands, they already require a master or mistress to remain confident in their own abilities.

Hell, consider today: Every new generation assumes current technology is just 'baseline', and that it'll never go away or be different, and that nobody else ever had to deal with anything different. How could they? They had wi-fi in the stone age, right?
5233270
No, no. She could've been so much better a pony, and life would've been great. She had one job, and she damn-near fucked it up, big time. As it is, destiny made sure she wasn't 100% a waste of time as well.
5237570
Honestly I am looking forward to see what she will become. I think most people will vote wife but I just want to see if my suspicions are confirmed with the final vote.
5237923 sorry I'm a brick wall XD
5238559 Mwhauhauhauhauahuaha, just wait, my friend, just wait.....and keep reading !
5237472
BUCK YES!!
The question did cross my mind.
5237642
I'm sticking with griffon, you?
5237737
Everything I planed to comment, commented by you.
Random question, do musical moments happen in the chase verse?
Lunch break at school, a classmate of mine started to sing <<Royals>> I didn't much of it at first, but then another classmate joined her, a few more seconds later a few people joined in, 30 seconds later, every girl in class and quite few guys sang TOGETHER. 3 minutes or so the song ended with a "Yeah!" From every singing person, which is about more than 30 people. I just stood there like "What's going on?"
Nothing like it happens before in china... Philippine schools are awesome.
5239013
Actually, I was drawing upon Celtic lore and the fae.
5239015 Ehhh its ok, D&D stole everything from Tolkien and global folk-lore anyway, we just added numbers and quantified the universe like mad Arithmaticians! Praise be to Gygax, Hallowed be his name.
you know that you've gained a level in nerd when you invent a game called 'D&D this' where you watch a movie and as it progresses you assign levels to the protagonist as they complete actions, occasionally the antagonist for filler. Take a shot every time you assign a level of monk, because you dont deserve those brain cells anyway XD
5239036 that is not the same.
In the next chapter, another pack of little gryphon yay (how many of them survived so far? around 240?)
Also can they keep the ship which loaded with them? so Bucky will have a whole fleet with 3 ship now?
5239349 No, I've liked it from the start, but I only REALLY started to get into it then. It's kind of an "investment of Interest" for me now.
5239369
FURIES!
Spirits of torment.
Erinyes.
I'm as blind as an eye. As always.
Well, at least I was right with my statement that Twilight isn't acting smart. OK, she acts not acting smart, but nontheless.
Probably Bucky:

really the griffons were the ones being melodramatic drama queens. nice to see twilight isnt ALSO stoopid tho.
