Didn’t ye mommy ever tell ye to not mess with a mare that be in a mafia?

((Yes Vaudeville, didn’t your parents ever tell you that?  Now you and Pun gotta deal with the Golden Oaks Mafia.  I’m sure Another Twi and Lyin’ AJ will go easy on you.  Those are the exact words AJ said.

Also, a hat tip to ATS for taking my ‘grey matter’ pun and making it shorter and better ;3))

Ooh, but what if we allowed different sorts of wordpl- no? No, just puns?

Yeah, okay, I’ll think of something.

Mostly, you should probably study.

Am I off numbers? Is the alicorn grade “A”? No, no, “A” is a grade. I mean, it’s a grade, not a grade-grade! But then-?

Oh, Celestia, my studies did not prepare me for this.

She never seems to remember the material after a study session, though.

(As those few of you who follow my mod blog already know, I recently got back from a trip during which I hand-drew several answers. This is the first; I’ll be uploading the rest over the next few days. Hopefully, in the meantime, I’ll work out a way to make these look nicer.)

because mod love twilight so much now part 1))

N-now before anypony starts jumping to conclusions, there is a perfectly sensible reason that my mane and tail are disheveled.

And I’ll, uh… I’ll think of it in a minute.

asklyingapplejack:

Terrible ah guess… Least she ain’t thinking bout me…

Oh, gosh, I wasn’t trying to say anything bad! I just thought that, well, since we have all these royal connections you might want to comport yourself a little better.
Ah, not that I mean that the way you behave now isn’t just fine or anything. I love apples! And I know that you can’t have apples without a lot of dirt and stuff, but just because you have to spend most of your time mucking around in the dirt doesn’t mean there isn’t room to speak and act in a more respectable fashion.
I-I mean, the Apple family is perfectly respectable as it is! It’s just that there’s respectable, and then there’s respectable. Don’t get me wrong, Rarity gets every bit as embarrassed of me as she does around you! It’s just that it happens less often with me because I’m better at reading social cues and getting a sense for when I’m saying something I shouldn’t or hurting somepony’s feelings.
That’s not to say that I’m better or anything, just that there are some things you don’t learn on a farm, the same as there are things you don’t learn spending most of your time growing up in libraries. I mean, there are fewer in libraries because you have all those books so you can learn about pretty much anything. And with the right magic, you can find a spell to do pretty much any job better than most of the ponies that do it professionally, but you still need those ponies to be doing it professionally because it isn’t as though the highest level unicorns can be wasting all of their time baking cakes or harvesting apples. It’s just that it gives you that versatility, freeing you up to help your friends in pretty much any situation rather than just the ones that lend themselves to a limited skill set.
Not that your skill set is limited or anything! I mean, you’ve helped everypony in Ponyville time and again and you’ve helped save all of Equestria on more than one occasion and we all work best as a group, anyway, bringing all of our diverse assets to bear on a common problem, just I’m saying that there’s a difference between the nearly-universal value found in tenacity and the more-universal value found in knowledge and I mean I dont mean to suggest that theres any lack of knowledge to be found on a farm so much as that there are kinds of knowledge you dont find there and some of them can be pretty important at times not that theyre more important but more important or not they still matter and we spend a lot of time in Canterlot so I just figured maybe it would help ifwetooksometimetoreadthroughabookortwoandfigureoutawaytosmoothoverthoseroughedgesohcelestiapleasestoplookingatmelikethatpleaseidontmeananyharmimreallyreallyreallyreallyreallysorry!

So. Here’s what I drew for yesterday’s tumblrpon shuffle, put up over on Ask the Ghost Ponies.
It’s a pretty cute blog. It hasn’t been updating very much lately, but seeing as you’re evidently inclined to put up with my own snail-paced update schedule, that needn’t dissuade you from giving it a look.

And, just in case anyone hadn’t pieced it together yet, yesterday — it being the first of April — a hefty share of tumblrpon saw an artist change. Consequently, yesterday’s update came courtesy of the widely-enjoyed Pembroke W. Korgi, the mod for Ask Meanie Belle and Just Ask Berry Punch, among other things.

The language isn’t very flowery, but it is extremely precise, and that’s even better.

My heartfelt thanks to Pembroke W. Korgi (the mod behind Ask Meanie Belle and Just Ask Berry Punch, among other things) for drawing up such a wonderful document!
