Darkness is the essence of hiding as well as the cloak of misdirection, that being Chrysalis's first choice of things to go. The stage was clearly shown with overhead lights shining down on a single glass saucer with tiny little dot lights giving off a dim ambient glow beneath it all from under glass tiles. Not a single look could be missed off of the fear, despair, worry, and pain of any soul that was foolish enough or cursed dearly enough to be cast on that center stage.
The unknown and the unpredictable was always the core ideal of any fine show, or at least that's what Discord had had in mind. With the aid of his little colt ally and the payroll on several strapping stallions, the entire stage -offset as well as on- had been outfitted with not only the strangest in the unknown, but also the calculated exact of each pony or creature that could possibly ever be on stage. Not an idea was spared in Discord's grand design as he planned out each and every things' perfect tool of destruction... But all in good fun.
That all left only Pip to his own devices. At first he pondered what could this set be missing? Was it this? No. Was it that? No. It was perfect... Or so it would appear at first glance. But as that little colt looked to the marveling stage, he developed an idea... Was it twisted? Maybe. Was it funny? More so. Would it be heartwarming? If done right, in so many ways...
Nice new place, huh?
Be silent you...
Why is she upset?
She's just mad we didn't move the set where she wanted it.
I simply don't understand what was so taboo about bringing the set into Canterlot...
Do you want this list? Pippy, give her the list.
One, YOU are banned from Canterlot until YOU are invited as a royal guest.
Two, HE is banned from Canterlot until I repair and repay the statue of him I broke.
Three, this show is technically illegal by the capital of Canterlot, it's only because of our boss that we can do this.
Four, we did a majority vote and it was two to one.
That in of itself is unfair since you and that thing are friends now.
Maybe...
But come on...
Think of it as a free vacation!
I fail to see the joy in this place...
Haywaii is a great place!
The surf...
The sand...
The stallions...
You know the ones he means...
Eh? Eh? Eh?
...I honestly believe I am growing ill of mind the more I sit here listening to you two...
Come on.
The sun...
The sea...
The saucy maidens...
You know the ones he means...
Eh? Eh? Eh?
Are you implying that I go for females?
Honestly, we're running a bet on if you're a boy or girl...
I'm a female!
Looks like you might win Pip.
Don't know... juries still out...
MAKERS! WHY!?
