Well, I lol'd at the question. It seemed like it came from Fastest Fall in Equestria, amiright?

Just watch out for the Swords.

It did. I'm debating putting the story on hold until someone answers it. Of course, everything's on hold for a day or two.

Ah, the Sword of Damocles, a metaphor made literal within the context of the original legend... Greek kings were not known for their subtlety, I'm afraid.

Hm. I'd prescribe the use of a specialized headcovering by both patient and medic to avoid further complications, but I didn't think the spasms themselves had a cure besides waiting them out. However, to be safe, further observation will be necessary, particularly above the cranial regions of, again, both patient and medic.

(In other words: umbrella hats for everypony, and look out for falling objects. Probably not swords, but you never know.)

Interesting. Almost word-for-word from the textbook, though.

(In other words: Almost the exact phrasing I would have used. Except I would have said headgear.)
