Mr. Waddle has been officiating over funerals in Ponyville for decades. They're all pretty much the same. You say a few words, you do the thing with the bowls, and you let the family grieve. At no point does the body get up.

Why couldn't this be a normal funeral?

Is it self-serving for me to like and fave this? Probably, but I'm doing it anyway.

You. Both. Never. Stop. Writing!:pinkiehappy:

Haven't read it yet, but:

Uh... what?

Three bowls that are buried with the dead. One of salt, one of earth, one of ash. Nopony remembers why, it's just an earth pony thing. Probably symbolic, most stuff like that is.

If I had to guess, I'd say they symbolize birth (earth), life (salt), and death (ash).

I want to know what that contract says.

that was amusing :twilightsmile:

It's hinted at in Pipe Down Cheats Death. Basically Death can't take him until some date in the future, and he always renegotiates before it comes up.

This Pipe character is awesome. Can't believe I haven't heard about him till now. Excuse me as I head off to read a few.:pinkiehappy:

Pretty funny! I enjoyed it. :pinkiehappy:

I keep forgetting about how useless the official Ponyville doctor is(though he might be the pediatrician) of course he would pronounce a sleeping person dead.
