Phoenixfur (I'm back! Ask me stuff?) · 1:03am Jul 22nd, 2021
Yeah, I'm back. And honestly I could use a bit of a soundboard to get my creativity flowing at max again. So if you have any questions for me, ask away! I can also try to answer in-character for any of my characters from prank war or the potion shop.
Do you like penguins? Assume I'm also asking all your characters this. (Yes, you're also the person who made me aware of King Charlatan IIRC, I don't care)

Penguins are okay, I guess. Never really had strong feeling about them one way or another. A penguin was my middle school mascot, though, if I recall correctly.
That being said, pn the topic of penguins, happy feet was a good movie.
Nice to see you again dude, hope you are doing well. So my questions are why does your assitant hasstayed with you for so long and how amny assitansts have you had. Also do you know The Doctor?

Arca: "Juniper isn't the first of my assistants to stay for a long time. Even if I taught her constantly at high speed, she'd be ready to retire by the time I covered all my recipies.
...that being said, she's only been my employee/apprentice for about 5 years. The record is 40 years, not counting Razzle, because she's ageless like me."
Ashfur says: I dunno how many apprentices Arca has taught. At least 100, I'd assume.
Do you plan on working on any of your other unfinished stories, or just these two for now?

Okay how many keep him in high regard, how many turned insaine, and how many have vowed a multi generationnal revange on him?
5558380
Honestly? For now, just the two. Other, lesz popular tories of mine like Error code FIO and the Comet series will absolutely require a complete rewrite. And with my job (I'm a mialman now. I drive the dwagon), my 2-hours a night twitch streams (making others laugh through gaming), and the 2 stories I have going now, I don't have much free time left.
Also I'm taking a class in being a voice actor. Who knows, I might do character work one day! Arca is 100% based on my own personality, so I'd love to voice him.
So Celestia, what was the final sentence for Emerald Essence?
I mean that can't be the first time she used illegal hypnosis/brainwashing/mind manipulation to get her way.

Arca: "Emerald who?"
Celestia: "Honestly an open-and-shut case. She ripped off dozens of companies by mind-controlling them into horribly unfair contracts, alongside bei g speciest and tribalist. She got 60 years in prison, which she likely won't be living out, given that she is currently in her mid 50s. Pity, I really hate having to discipline ponies..."
Arca: "Ok but again, who are we talking about?"
Ashfur's note: My favorite moment of the story so far was Arca calling Emerald 'Cucumber Valet' when guessing her name. I still laugh at it.
It took a moment for it to dawn on me... Welcome freaking back! :D
My body is ready!
Oi sunbutt, when do ya intend to screw with twilight?
5558511
"Sooner or later. With her living in Canterlot again, it's inevitable."
Great to see you back!
Question - are there any dog owners in the town? Has any of them own a dog looking like that, usually present during the Duck episodes?

So Twilight, Any chance you might use math to screw with Luna?
5558534
I like to imagine Discord doing that.
Hmm... Applejack Rarity and Fluttershy, as mere observers of the ongoing prank war between Nick, the princesses and occasionally rd and pinkie, what are your views on the matter. Should they stop, tone it down, go all out, leave you out of it, involve you more, etc?
5558684
What tha princesses do is thier business. Sounds like sum right proper family bonding ta me! Jus' leave me out of it.
P-pranks? A-and a w-war? Nopeny told me about any pranks...
My goodness, have you SEEN the messes those three cause? I should be delighted that Nick keeps placing orders for new clothes, but all my fine work gets RUINED! Those three almost rival the CMC with thier messes on occasion. It's HORRIBLE!
Princess Cadence, a number of times we have seen Nick called "Unca Nick" by Flurry Heart, which is so cute by the way, is there a story to their closeness or is it just time, love and familiarity? Also are there any good embarrassing stories of the two of them together you wish to share?
5558697
Ashfur would like to withhold this answer as it might make for some decent chapters down the line.
I will, however, state that Nick is Flurry Heart's legal Godfather. So 'Uncle Nick' is appropriate.
Blueblood
"THAT'S PRINCE BLUEBLOOD PEASANT!!!!!!"
Ugh, fine. Prince Blueblood, how goes your plans for revenge on Nick?
Will le bughorse join in to thoroughly mindscrew everyone involved?
5558759
I try to keep as close to canon as possible, and this is post-season-9, so bughorse is a tad... busy at the moment. I might bring in a changeling once or twice, but I wanna keep the group small.
Using too much magic takes away the fun of the pranks, after all.
