[03:08] "What will i be doing?" [03:09] "I need you to create a life sized ghost pony puppet and human ghost puppet." [03:09] "Can you do that?" [03:10] "Oh and the human HAS to look like a cowboy." [03:10] "I can create human puppet no problem, but a pony puppet will take some time." [03:10]  * Arrant_Hold chuckles "Hey, patience is my middle name." [03:11] "When you get done with that, let me build up some tension to rouse up the town." [03:11] "What kind of ruse we'll be doing?" [03:11] "We're going to scare a few ponies." [03:12] "Now that is something I can do." [03:12] "I'll walk into the Inn, telling some bullshit ghost story, then we gather a team and go to the woods [03:12] " [03:13] "You'll be waiting in the shadows and when I give the signal, I want you to make the puppets SPRING out at them." [03:13] "Alright and I'll have my four babies here keep an eye out. Give them the signal and they relay it back to me." [03:13] "The signal, by the way, is that I'll disappear and shout for help." [03:14] "When you go into the woods take have Drone and Theta with you." [03:14] "Alright. Will do." [03:15] "And since puppets can take a beating, if the other ponies try to fight it, it can keep getting back up." [03:15] "That'll really scare them!" [03:15] "what kind of cowboy will I be creating?" [03:15] "A Ghost Cowboy. Try to give it a Clint Eastwood look." [03:16] "Hmm... a Clint Eastwood look... I like it." [03:16] "And when we have them too scared to run, we'll spring out and surprise them!" [03:17] !roll 1d20 to smile mischievously [03:17] 16 == 16 [03:17] "Got it. This will be my first time controlling something large." [03:17] !roll d20 creepiest smile that shakes the universe [03:17] 4 == 4 [03:17] "First time for everything, eh? So... we have a deal?" [03:17] *derp smile* [03:18]  * Arrant_Hold extends a mischievous hoof [03:18] *shakes hoof* [03:19]  * Arrant_Hold smile widens "Perfect... And if anyone ask, dont say anything about it. Try to keep your 'work' hidden.'" [03:19] "And if you need to discuss more on the matter, tell me at the docks, not at the Inn." [03:20] "Will do. I will have to make these puppets in the woods to avoid any lookers." [03:20]  * Arrant_Hold nods while grinning, holding back a chuckle "Take as long as you need, 'partner'. Names Arrant, by the way." [03:20] !roll d20 creepiest smile that shakes the universe [03:20] 20 == 20 [03:21] (dat 20) [03:21]  * Arrant_Hold is not phased by the smile, rather encouraged [03:22] "We should head back to the Inn." [03:22] "Right. Names Arrant, by the way." [03:22]  * Arrant_Hold heads back to the Inn [03:22] "Name Mary O'Nette" [03:22] *follows* [03:22]  * Arrant_Hold chuckles "Huh, nice name."
