[the strains of a rather catchy theme song can be heard over the journal. Ever since she found Spike playing Zombies in a Mall in the game room, she's been poking around here once in a while. And this time, it looks like she's settled down for a game of Batamari.

Her tone is definitely amused as she speaks into the journal.] Forsooth, I must admit that this method of star creation is much more interesting than waiting billions of years for dust to accrete - 'though I suppose the basic idea is there.

[hmm. She's sort of talking to herself now.] The density of the Batamari itself may be enough to exert a noticeable gravitational pull 'pon all these objects. Verily, the more mass one doth accumulate, the greater the pull, 'though that doth not explain size of the Prin -

[and here's the sound of the Game Over lasers]

Dictated forever

[huffythedragon]

Oh man, you're playing that game. [Oh...the lasers]

...Well, you were anyway.

[doublethefun]

[sigh]

For the life of me, I cannot seem to please the Ruler in regards to this particular quest.

[though she doesn't seem to mind the minigame too much. For now.]

[huffythedragon]

I don't think that guy is ever easy to please.

[doublethefun]

Considering the fact that he was the one who created the problem in the first place...

[the sound of the game starts up again and then...it's immediately game over.

What thick-skulled, lily-livered disgrace of a foal would e'er hide the tiniest bear in the world behind some other thrice-damned item??

[looks like she's on the 'catch the biggest bear' quest.]

[huffythedragon]

You'd think he'd be a tiny bit more considerate.

[Oh dear]

Uhhh Luna? Remember not to get too invested, okay?

[doublethefun]

[there's a huff even as she starts up the game again]

I am hardly invested in such a silly game. [declared in her most aloof, princessy voice.

There might be a bit of a growl to her tone, though.] I am simply determined to win.

[at least she hasn't had to chance to yell at n00bs yet]

[huffythedragon]

[Paaaaaaause]

Okay but once you played this level you should probably take a break.


You know, from the game you're not invested in.

[doublethefun]

Art thou making light of mine plight, young Spike?

[she's teasing, but he can't exactly see her smile over the journal]

[huffythedragon]

Oh no. I'd never do anything like that, Luna. [Yes. Yes he would]

[doublethefun]

I will have thee know that this silly game is extremely important for reasons I am not about to disclose.

[that grave tone is at odds with the cheery background music, however]

[huffythedragon]

[That gets a snort of laughter]

It does sound super serious.

[doublethefun]

[she's grinning by now]

Indeed! The fate of Equestria doth rest 'pon its -

[hmm] I suppose that old excuse is no longer applicable here.

[huffythedragon]

[A chuckle]

Not so much. But hey, nice try!

[doublethefun]

[heh]

I do believe mine favorite is the declaration that the fate of Equestria doth depend 'pon the acquisition of a slice of cake.

[cakelestia-gate?]

[huffythedragon]

Oh yeah, that's the best one. I doubt Celestia would ever buy it, but I bet some other people would.
