Per the mod plotting post, you may use this post to obtain one of this month's freebies! This month's freebie can be earned by turning in a thread on this post that has 10 or more consecutive comments from you.

Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. Alphas, Betas, and Epsilons will notice that network posts will continue to be tagged without names attached but rather their newly issued IDs. OOCly, IDs are comprised of their title, the date they showed up on the app, and the digits on your character's inbox post. So for example, the Recollé NPC who was on the app would have an ID of Beta#0201188329. While user pictures can be displayed, Retrospec users will also experience broken pixels on occasion that obscure the face of whoever they're speaking to. (i.e. we will allow for players to play with an anonymous option if they wish.)

Don't listen to anyone who says that wasn't a good joke.
stressweets: Sometimes it can be hard for a shy pony like me to stand up for myself. When I first tried it, I didn't like the pony I became, but I learned that standing up for yourself isn't the same as changing who you are. (015. putting your hoof down)

[ jamie.... ]

Thank you. I wish I could take a little more pride in it, but I really hate bugs.
floret: (we pulled the draft files out)

That's all the more reason to be proud of it. You were able to overcome your personal antipathy for the sake of a one-liner.
stressweets: There are many different kinds of friends, and many ways to express friendship. Some friends like to run and laugh and play together. But others just like to be left alone, and that's fine too. But the best thing about friendship is being able to make your friends smile. (062. a friend in deed)

[personal profile] stressweets 2018-10-04 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
...I guess you're right. ♪
Now only if joking about them could get rid of them.
floret: (better the files)

[personal profile] floret 2018-10-04 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe if you dunk on them hard enough, they'll be so ashamed that they'll leave on their own...
stressweets: . Always expect the best from your friends and never assume the worst. Rest assured that a good friend always has your best interests at heart. (063. party of one)

Bugs don't have feelings, so that couldn't happen.

Because they don't have amygdalae, you mean? I guess that makes sense...
stressweets: Sometimes you have to do things, even though you might fail. (067. flutter brutter)

[ ....no he just meant they don't have feelings but

sure there's a scientific explanation for it, yeah. ]


Yeah...
Out of curiosity, what else don't they have?
floret: (i was thinking about the easy courage)

[personal profile] floret 2018-10-12 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
Skulls...
Bones in general...
I want to say agriculture, but I feel like there might be some kind of bug that does that?
stressweets: She taught me that one of the best things you can do with friendship is to give it to others, and help them find it themselves! [...] even though somepony seems a little intimidating, even scary, when you offer them your friendship, you'll discover a whole new pony underneath. (059. luna eclipsed)

[ currently imagining bugs in little overalls and sunhats ]

Like ants?
Ant farms...
floret: (bam)

[personal profile] floret 2018-10-12 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
It might be ants!
idk, does raising livestock count as agriculture? Humans started herding before they started growing crops, right? So it would be a different thing...
stressweets: f you cannot accept who you are, your life might seem like a bad dream. (019. bloom & gloom)

[personal profile] stressweets 2018-10-12 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know anything about farming... Are there insects that herd though?
... I guess parasitic ones sort of do. The ones that infect their victims and control their nervous systems.
floret: (eight co-defendants)

[personal profile] floret 2018-10-12 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Ehhh, are there ones that do that? That's scary!! I knew there was a fungus like that...
Oh, and I guess there are the kinds that lay their eggs in another one and then the babies hatch and eat it.
But I was thinking of this one kind of ant that raises aphids? Like, they take care of aphid eggs and then take the aphids around to plants and stuff.

[personal profile] stressweets 2018-10-15 04:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, how surprisingly advanced.
What's an aphid?
floret: (better the files)

[personal profile] floret 2018-10-16 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
Little tiny bug. It eats roses and stuff, and then ladybugs eat it.
stressweets: "Maybe we were trying too hard." "And instead of forcing ourselves to do something that's not meant for us..." "We each should be embracing our true talents." (017. the show stoppers)

[personal profile] stressweets 2018-10-21 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh.
I see.
I didn't think ladybugs ate other bugs...? I thought they'd be the kind of insect that eats, well, plants and stuff...
Ugh...
floret: (hand on the bible)

[personal profile] floret 2018-10-24 07:22 am (UTC)(link)
But you don't like bugs, right? So ladybugs are kind of helping you out by making it so there are fewer of them overall.
stressweets: [...] every pony is the star of their own story. And it's not just the main characters in our stories that make life so rich; it's everypony. Those who play big parts, and those who play small. (020. slice of life)

[personal profile] stressweets 2018-10-28 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, yes, and I'm happy about that
But they eat bugs!! That's so gross.
floret: (i was thinking about the easy courage)

[personal profile] floret 2018-10-30 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Do you think it's gross for anything to eat bugs? Like birds and lizards or whatever?
