Page 573 — Chrono Chrys, Part 8
We're just about done. Now that I've done this once, I'd be willing to try this a couple more times down the line as mini-arc palette cleansers, if people would be down for that.
So here's a prompt that I'd be surprised if it hasn't been brought up before: It gets kind of a bad rap because it undermines all the work we put into giving our characters cool abilities, but have you ever had a "power of friendship"-like effect happen in one of your games?
Transcript:Twilight Sparkle: You know, I expected to be going mad with power right about now. But I'm strangely calm. Even though a simple Arcana check would probably be devastating. <roll>
Queen Chrysalis: HISSSSSS!
Twilight Sparkle: You want to stop me? I hope you took my friends into account, Chrysalis. Because whatever I become in the future, I know it's nothing without them.
Rarity: Where would you be without my charm?
Applejack: Or a friend's honesty.
Rainbow Dash: Or my sheer awesomeness!
Pinkie Pie: My jokes!
Fluttershy: Awwww…!
Apple Bloom: Or my smarts!
Scootaloo: My… er, simply being here?
Sweetie Belle: Maybe we should stay out of this.
Queen Chrysalis: You can't… be allowed… this reckless power…
Twilight Sparkle: Maybe so, but I have faith in me and my friends. We'll go on to face our future, but for you… It's game over!
SFX: (CRACK!)
Rainbow Dash: But I wanted the KO!
Applejack: Fancy.
Fluttershy: Sorry, Queen! We'll try diplomacy next time!
Applejack: What're you setting up here, DM…?
Fluttershy: Is she okay?
Rainbow Dash: Can I, uh, slap her?
SFX: (SLAP!)
Twilight Sparkle: Wha- Hey! I'm blasting YOU next, Rainbow!
Rainbow Dash: Still worth it.
