Seriously, what is in those hooves?

The chemical list is in the beginning of the Chase. First 50 chapters. Feel free to look.

Chapter 35. I should have made you look for it on your own.
Two different theories that are completely unrelated run through my head.
1. If bucky becomes part dragon in physiology... would that extend his life? Dragons have longer lifespans than ponies, judging by hundred year sleeps, and the thought occurs to me that his shortened lifespan would still count in dragon terms. Like... he would life very briefly in terms of a normal dragon life, but more of a normal lifespan in terms of a pony life.
2. The chemicals that earth ponies release from their hooves... would it build up during time they are not walking? It could explain why Bucky got knocked on his ass if there was plenty there to be had,

Bon Bon is a mega producer.
Ponies are addicted to her candies. They can't help themselves.
Hmmmmm.... I wonder if they considered just letting Bucky externally inseminate Bonbon. No penetration needed, just pour it in. Probably more messy, probably less effective, but it could be fun for all. And no need pay a doctor to do it... unless Bon Bon has already been inseminated. But meh...
Even though it is a different type of frog, the reaction is still the same.
5974874
Bon Bon already had a creamy filling squirted into her candied backside.
5974870
Please see previous discussions on the topic of increased lifespan,
TL;DR
Bucky new form was created using a Dragon's template but it doesn't alter his lifespan because hes only a pony.
5974890
Was this pre Mustania mission?
I wonder if you will have Scorch's reaction upon realizing the deal Bucky talked him into before, if he hasn't realized it yet.
5974899
**Squints.**
It took place somewhere between chapter one and chapter 659...
Bon Bon's pregnancy is what allowed her to curse up a blue streak when the rats came.
5974936
Is Ripple a what?
5974865
Well thanks for looking it up for me.
So Kudzu.... if they collected whatever it is that Earth Ponies produce from their hooves... particularly ponies like Bon-Bon, and gave it to captured mirror travelers, what would happen?
5974977
What happens if you give a metric shit ton of heroin to a heroin junkie that hasn't used any smack in a long, long time?
5974996
So how does one remember the bad things that lead to your fall so you don't repeat them, without saying exactly what happened to bring it about?
5974882

Simple explanation, it's a classification of (typically) female character who is approachable as a typically loving girl, but turns out to be ultra-possessive and violent, and more than a little crazy about it.
Despite more or less originating mainly in a fandom-sense, there's a lot of psychological profiling going on with the whole -dere thing, so long as you're getting it right.
Berry's or Berry Punch's

Dunno. Never met a heroin addict. I'm going to guess along the lines of convulsions, dilated pupils, and potentially coma and/or death. And if they survive, a dangerous need for it.
5975005
In this case, you mention that a whole bunch of evil griffons brought about their near extinction, but you never mention their names.
And you begin by teaching the first generation born after this catastrophe a list of things they must never do.
Never, ever, under any circumstances, eat pony flesh or sapient flesh.
Don't shit in your nest. (Begin the Saga of the Fall of Griffonholm, and How We Polluted Our Home)
Remember your honour. To die in the service of another is the greatest we can hope for. (Begin the Saga of Loki)
Defend your neighbor from vermin. (Begin the Saga of the Rats)
See how this works? Does this help clear things up a little?
5974996
Yes but when the archaeologist go to uncover the lost history and find that all this Info was "left out of History" what is an academic suppose to conclude? Yeah we forget the names but remember the event. But this isn't just forgetting some bad dudes, this is erasing a civilization. And its done by the victors, alot of perspective can change in several generations. There may be those who see the censoring as an attempt to demonize the loser in order to subvert the survivors.
Spent a little too long musing on that author's note.
First read it as "...have Bucky like a typo."
Reading typos for typos. I have a sneaking suspicion the tyspos are infeckting the brian.

See the post just below yours.

Basically what Aurora Said. But also, when taken to the extremes, a Yandere may.ok, she will because taken to the extreme they are fucking lunatics, will kill any girl daring to get near the man of their affections. They may try blackmail or trying to get them with someone who isn't who they are interested in, but killing is easier.

Or propaganda to keep the Griffons weak and unable to reach their true potential as dominant race of Equestria. In a sense it is, so future scholars could interpret it this way. The Griffons went 'mad' but no examples remain because they were all forgotten. The war happened because the Griffons stood on the verge of global war but were slaughtered in their sleep by the Lord of winter who then was declared King. We have history and traditions speaking to the cruelty of the larger Griffons visited on the smaller griffons. But isn't pony history the same? The Earth ponies were made to serve the other races and many acts of cruelty happened to them. Seen from the prospective of several generations of prosperity within pony culture the Old Griffons may be seen as victims of Pony expansionism. At this time Pony influence took over the world, most of the other cultures were destroyed or assimilated. The Griffons were just the first...
5975083
Only now, Odin is back and gaining strength.
And he's making certain that he is laying out the groundwork to cement his place as the father of all griffons... much in the same way Celestia and Luna remain the immortal monarchs of Equestria.
He tried the talons off approach like so many other immortals... it failed. So now, and we see evidence of this in the story, he is taking lessons from Princess Celestia.
So in a sense, this really is beginning anew. Odin will allow the practice of the two kings for the griffons to continue, but they are his kings. And he is running the show, but trying to look like he is not running the show.
5975083
What of the Shire Isles, where unicorns were kept as slaves, and the pegasi and the earth ponies remained in power?
5975112
more proves the point, ponies are hypocritical in claiming they were in the right to destroy Griffonholm. With Odin as the Griffon Celestia keeping griffons on the path he chooses it will reduce the bad mojo but it doesn't change the fact that from a human standpoint the Old Griffons were conquered, the "freed slaves" were indoctrinated to believe their pony saviors were their for their benefit, when they were only there to stop the Griffon threat, and though Utopia was obtained it was only reached trough the destruction of every other Culture on Equs.
5975186
Chaos magic is why dragons can bathe in lava, eat gems, breathe fire, and do dragon things. It gives life to metal, allowing it to become a flexible living skin.
A walking contradiction, if you will.
5975192
Thankfully, there are no humans to have this perspective.
Eventually, the griffons will go back and rebuild Griffonholm.
In time, the ice will form a glacier that slowly slides into the sea. When the griffons do go back home, most of the land will have fallen into the sea, leaving behind a blank slate, clean earth, and a means to begin anew. I have some... story ideas about the subject.
5975021
Aye. That it does. I was misinterpreting it as pretty much forgetting everything (history summarized as "We did bad things and were wiped out for it, the end", with no further detail. That is sufficient detail to hopefully keep it in their minds for me. Even if the names themselves are never remembered, the acts committed and what said acts brought about must never be forgotten.
So yeah, I'm happy with that.
5975212
Yeah, stupid pony culture... as long as everyone is acting harmonious it doesn't matter if your ancestors were brain slugs to the Alicorn overlord who reigns benevolently. If you do do the Return to Griffonholm, consider having a Cult of entitled Griffons who want to resurrect the old ways and an pseudo antagonists. You know the kind that don't understand the first thing about the culture they emulate but claim it to be superior to what they currently have.
5975310
So... the sorts of things that the psychopomps will have to go through and police in order to keep harmony.
The world is heading for a peaceful and unified future.
Dude, all this things is making bucky go loco! Three Bon Bons is like a pound of drugs man. I just imagined him giggling like a girl! A girl! Hahahahahahaha
5975194
I see... and the reason why it's a whiff is that a lot of chaos magic is things like Discord.
5975326
Yeah because in Utopia true Evil wouldn't exist, but misguided Idealists are a dime a dozen. Conflict becomes about heated debate over academic pursuits and philosophical ideals. But how can an ideal society with generations of peace understand true evil. So having conflicts like this is more understandable than... say global conflict.
5975357
Yes.
Spike and other dragons only need a tiny spark of chaos in order to keep existing.
Imagine if some horrible tyrant eliminated all of the chaos in the world.
5975373
We're talking about actual "removing chaos" even on a small level, and not things that are just removing certain kinds of chaos, like trying to ensure the world is, as a whole, orderly and free of conflict like the fear control that Equestria is partially engaging in, right?
5975398
Imagine if you will, a being that could remove chaos. Anti-chaos if you will. Magic that brought perfect order.
Now imagine if you will, that being using their magic on a dragon. Or Discord. Or Spike.
Now imagine what might happen when that spark of chaos ceases to exist.
Goes to show you. Lick the wrong frogs and you'll be tripping for days.
5975405
What? Like... maybe balls would bounce more regularly, and we'd be able to finally figure out quantum uncertainty, and then people wouldn't have to worry about all sorts of chaotic and difficult things happening all around them. Emotions would probably be more regular, and any natural weather would smooth itself out instead.
Sure, dragons would die, including Spike, but I think we've established that in Chase-verse "break a few eggs (to be honest, they probably deserve it anyway) to save the rest of the batch" is pretty much what the protagonists run on.
Seems fine to me. /s
5975212 In time, the ice will form a glacier that slowly slides into the sea.
5975495 Damn the pun! but that is funny
5975496
A problem would be that a being whose magic brings perfect order is unlikely to stop at discord and dragons, and will soon be throwing order at everything, even harmony, since it would oppose an overly ordered system. Approachong the limit of Perfect Order would yield stagnation, changelessness, stillness, and ultimately a full stop, frozen, unchanging universe. Such a universe where nothing acts or interacts, nothing changes and nothing even moves is pointless and only different from nonexistence by technicality.
The philosophical implications of too great a degree of order are discussed in the anime Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion.
5975831
There are terrifying safeguards in place to keep the golems from being tampered with. Brain scrambling being a very real consequence for unauthorised access.
It is part of the reason why the gunpowder golems are so effective.
5975802
That's assuming that the entity wouldn't also be Orderly. A fallacy of the "Extreme Order" trope is that such an orderly being wants to make EVERYTHING adhere to Order. When logically that makes no sense, since the entity itself is a Harmonic entity or it couldn't perceive Order or Disorder/Chaos.
We can take that further in MLP, and the Chase-verse especially. Discord is out resident Chaos God, and more than that, a Spirit of Chaos, making him more or less composed of chaos to begin with by design. However, he too, is a Harmonic being. His 'chaos' isn't all that chaotic, it's little more than whimsy. True chaos, and "Extreme Chaos" would be separate things entirely. His other title, Spirit of Disharmony, is a little misleading since he's harmonic to begin with, but more accurate. He exists to spread some Disorder, to tip the scales of Harmony from a bit more in Chaos' favor rather than Order. Meanwhile an Orderly entity would likely be much the same, tipping Order further their way.
The back and forth is what creates Harmony, because you can't have 50/50 Order/Chaos as a sapient, sane being. Life would go bananas, literally sometimes. But when Chaos or Order pulls TOO hard in their direction, the other responds by pulling it back, and thus you have a shifting but predictable balance that allows for growth and change and decay and renewal of Chaos as well as the all-important stability and foundation and logic of Order.
But an Orderly entity choosing to 'not stop there' would be more of a personal character flaw than their nature.
As determined as I am trying to catch up to this story, I feel like I'm fighting a battle I cannot win.
There are times where I'm getting sucked into the story again and read another 100 chapters and times where I lose interest yet I still try to finish so I can catch up and not have another 300+ chapters left to read. It's feels a lot like finishing up homework.
5975945
The positive is, there is always something to read...
5975945 Is Mister addiction having trouble with.his.... addiction? Zinger!
5975841 The fuck are you doing out there man? It's been like... three or four chapters since we've had a Harper cutie section. Who. The. FUCK! do you think you are? Where do you get off?!
Please don't take this seriously, I just want more fuzzy foal time.
