*slurping noises*
Ahhh, nothing like the same old grey mush waiting for you when you wake up. I must have slept longer than usual because that bump from when I fell is only throbbing a little bit. Although, my muscles are still aching, I haven’t had an intensive work out like that in years. Even the mines under Shattered Hoof weren’t that strenuous.

[BEGIN MESSAGE #25]
-se follow me Mr. Luck, we will be taking you for your final test. It’s nothing too demanding as yesterdays I assure you, I take it you’re aching still?
I am indeed. Could I ask you a question if you don’t mind?
There’s nothing stopping you Mr. Luck so ask away.
What have I actually volunteered for?
I’m afraid I can’t answer that at the moment, you will find out soon enough.
Oh.

Stop fidgeting please.
Now that the correct note-uh-forms have been filled out we can begin the real testing. Please just stay here for the moment Mr. Luck as I need to fetch the equipment.
*loud BANG of a filing cabinet being closed*
Understood Doctor.
*Door slammed shut*
.
Luna’s moon that took forever, that Doctor Bow is a strange one. There’s something I just can’t understand about him, something’s…off. Oh, and for you cameras in here, yes, I do talk to myself, is there a problem with that?!
Back to the matter at hoof, I wonder what this test entails.
*Creak of a door opening*
Hello again Mr. Luck, before you ask this is what you’ll be tested on, it’s a prototype and you are the perfect candidate to try it out. Suffice to say it has a ninety-two percent chance of success, failure will probably lead to severe nausea and/or passing out. No permanent damage thankfully, so would you like to begin?
What if I say no?
Security Protocol: Go-Fish.
*metal clangs*
Well...This is the second time I’ve been stuck in a chair this year alone.

Sometimes I just feel like it’s my punishment to wake up with a sore head; I can’t believe it’s still throbbing after falling outta my cot like that. You’d think I was hit by a sledgehammer or something. Hold on, I’m pretty sure my muscles should be aching from the tests yesterday. They feel completely fine… huh, well I’m not going to complain. Right now I feel like this is just me being boring, what with nothing useful to talk about.
I guess I’ll leave you with a small message: Behind you!
Gotcha!
*laughing*

Just been given a massive helping of the ‘Mysterious Porridge’, I think they added sugar or something this time, because it was almost sickeningly sweet.
*SCREECH*  
*a smooth mare’s voice speaks*
Mr. Luck is it?
That’s me.
It’s time for the experiment you volunteered for; it would be appreciated if you comply fully and don’t resist.
*sounds of creaking wheels and multiple hooves*
Woah, that’s a pretty big needle for compliance…now now, there’s no need to-ooft-be so rough-ow! That hurt-I just have an itch on my fore leg could I-
*sounds of a scuffle and tightening of straps*
There we go, now wasn’t that easy Mr. Luck?
Mmmf-MMMF
Ah your itch, I’ll get that for you. Hmm? This device is whirring? Well. Doctor Bow will want to know about this. Bring him along please and don’t forget to use a triple dose of Med-X, we don’t want him too lucid for the course of experiment.
*sounds of creaking wheels and multiple hooves*
[FFW ???mins/hrs]
*voice of Doctor Bow and the female talking*
All I’m saying is that the device on his fore leg is doing something, it isn’t broken Doctor.
I understand your concern but you think I didn’t already know? From what I could tell about his device it’s reminiscent of those Pipbuck’s from Stable-Tec. He probably had it custom made and if it functions anything like a Pipbuck then it won’t disrupt the experiment, those things are way too sturdy for their own good, plus those things are next to impossible to take off short of amputation. Why do you think I haven’t done anything about it before?
Well I just thou-.
Thought nothing, we’re behind schedule as it is. This is a new form of the standard procedure so we don’t have to time for what-ifs anymore. The least we can do is turn the device off, press that button on the far left.
Yes Doctor.
