Occupied Equestria: Day 4 Afternoon

83002 83004
Set six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where Chrysalis chose a different approach to her second attack on Equestria. The Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princesses notion of harmony with all creatures thank to their dealing with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestruan Southlands, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and even ancient necormancers and dark gods threaten the city and the surrounding regions. This role play is based in large part upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&d 3.5e mechanics.

Definitely a relationship. It seems to be that of a father and colt. There is a picture of a colt and some older unicorn stallion with pinkish coat, holding a participation trophy in what looks like a pinewood derby race

Oh no, this is an evil house. The lamps do not use liquids for their light

The flashlight will let you see what you point it at, although it will exclusively let you see what you point it at. A light spell attached to Ash herself could draw unwanted attention if taken out of the basement

"Socialism" by Freedrich Angels, and "In the Ricefields" by Fillip Redguard

>>84875
Sample
"I know, my dear Cheese, that you are concerned about the effects of this 'gag order,' as you call it, in stifling our ability to speak against the injustices of the occupying regime. However, I tell you that it is not a censorship of ourselves, so much as an essential step for our self-preservation. The fascists have shown that they will remove anyone who stands in the way of their power, and would effortlessly do the same to us were we to point out the injustices of their regime in foreign affairs. There would be no benefit in being martyrs for freedom of speech and the press, as there are plenty of martyrs already. There are enough martyrs to fill several volumes of books. We must bide our time, and have faith"
From 'Lichen Stone.' Most noteworthy repeated phrase is 'gag order.'

Another correspondence. This one with none other than Golden Delicious, and from Comte

"I disagree with your assertion that a free election would not bring about the liberation of the oppressed. They know where their interests lies, and they have been awoken by the events of the last twenty years, from the time of the Stalliongrad succession to the coronation of the third princess to the Great War. The only question of importance is if the creatures have a free and fair election"

You know what? Fuck it. Silver gets a quickrundown of "Three theories of sexuality." The first section concerns sexual abberations: Where the sexual object deviates from the sexual aim. In the discussion of the sexual object, it concerns itself with sexual perversions. This is of course only a small portion of the book. Essentially, this is a psychology/philosophy book he is looking at

The Psychology of Sexuality, in a quick glance, claims among other things that it is false to believe that foals have no sexual desire to them. Rather, sexuality is expressed even from the earliest ages. It also talks about auto-eroticism in both foals and yearlings. Another section concerns same-sex appeal. Another Philosophy/psychology book, basically
