Now with a reading by Pony&Wolf Productions!

She had been simply another background pony

Roseluck, Daisy, and Lily.

I did not manage to restrain my mirth, either. I am now reconciling this fact be speaking in a more refined and eloquent tongue. It's not really working, is it?

The EIA, huh? Is that part of the ___verse too, then?

Is it weird that I favorite and up vote everything you write even before I read it?

Probably not. This story certainly isn't.:pinkiehappy:

If it is, then I'm weird too. :pinkiehappy:

Speaking of the ___verse, have you come up with a name for it yet, or will it remain forever nameless?

Speaking of the ___verse, have you come up with a name for it yet, or will it remain forever nameless?

Not yet. I am leaning towards the 'pidginverse.' though. Heh, by the time I finally come up with a name, Dale will be speaking fluently.

Even thought Princess Celestia said that it was nopony’s fault

Carousel Boutique had serious structural damage to the facade.

That's kind of contradicting, given a facade is just a cover, not part of the structure of a building. aka not load bearing. aka not structural.

Enough busting your balls (for now), this was a good little oneshot. Red approves.

Corrections made, thank you!

The funny thing is, that might not be a deliberate reference. I think I wrote this story before I was aware of Background Pony.

Shining Armor really needs to improve his hiring practices

Yes, the follow function makes it so easy.

Pinkie Pie lead them off,”

led. Fixed.

An integral part of Lyra's secret agent repertoire are her bionic legs. Side effects include:
Increased bounce height...

...legs bending at awkward angles...

...And possibly some lead poisoning. :twilightsheepish:

4066485 No problem. What are incredibly picky readers for? :trollestia:

Pinkie Pie lead them off,”
led.

In my defense, this was written before I was smart enough to differentiate between the two, and I obviously missed it in proofing.

...And possibly some lead poisoning.

Actually, I was actually thinking that might be one of the things that the forensics boys find in Lyra's hair: a higher-than-normal lead level. I assume that the ponies use lead solder on their pipes, and maybe lead paint, too--and I think that heavy metals would show up in hair

I hadn't planned anything specific, but the EIA might pop up in a story here or there.:pinkiehappy:

No problem. What are incredibly picky readers for?

1. To correct my spelling.
2. To deflate my ego when it gets too big.
3. To occasionally read my rants.
4. To make crazy suggestions that sometimes find their way into a story

4070549 Sounds about right!

That trio? Shining, I really hooe they can take the training.

Iiiii don't think they use lead paint or lead solder. They seem to have a decent enough grasp on the sciences to know that's retarded.
This was a thing. I thought it was funny. Three and a half chuckles.

I've made a point of generally assuming they don't use lead in plumbing, if for no other reason than to prevent readers from jumping all over me. For what it's worth, IRL I made the executive decision to phase out the lead wheel weights we've got in the shop, even though there is no law requiring us to do so.

5509916
Good! Lead and zinc aren't really good for human contact in raw metal form.

5510042
Less bad for an adult than a child, but still worth avoiding wherever possible. We've almost phased them all out; we've only got one uncommon type of wheel weight left in lead.

5510088
Of course I can't really say anything, having identified a sample of lead by taste in Chemistry.

5510371
We do that in the shop occasionally, too. Brake fluid tastes different from coolant, which tastes different from power steering fluid...

Heck, I knew a girl who would only make art with supplies she'd tasted. Odd, I guess, but I've eaten paper, so I suppose I have no room to talk.

5510383
Right. It's one of those little thing things. Chugging it will kill you, but you'll be fine with a tiiiiiny taste.

Chugging it will kill you, but you'll be fine with a tiiiiiny taste

True of so many things. :pinkiehappy:

The irony of this is hilarious now that we know BON-BON's the spy.

Man, Hilarious in Hindsight actually makes this story better than it would've been if I'd read it BEFORE "Slice of Life". :rainbowlaugh:

Nice read, I enjoyed it! Also...the background pony thing, subtle. :twilightsmile:

EIA (Equestrian Intelligence Agency) = CIA
MDSAF (Modecan Secret Agent Force) = KGB
SIA (Struckfornia Intelligence Agency) = MI 16 or 17
AIS (Averyland Intelligence Services) = Mosad
MUG (Magpie Underground) = Stasi or Gestapo.

Huh, I didn't know that they'd done readings of this. Thanks for the heads-up! :heart:
