Discord: No no, this is just for fun. I have all the intel I need. Like the beautiful and ruthless Rogue who inadvertently succumbed to her bleeding heart of Generosity. Just think: A sea serpent’s scale led to the downfall of your Thieves’ Guild. If that’s not chaos theory, I don’t know what is.
Rarity: …Not even Elusive knew the whole story behind that.
Applejack: So the DM – our DM – told you all about us. Big deal.
Discord GM: Right, right, and the Honest Ranger. Element of Fun-Ruining.
