My guess is that Braeburn wanted to market "Dragonkiller" rounds to make some money off of them, rather than actually make them kill a dragon in a single shot. Or designed so they'd work at certain spots on a dragon where their hide is thinner. Maybe the genitals? Or he liked the name and slapped on new AP rounds. But the way it killed Big Mac was "through the heart", so it didn't explode on impact. Went through his armor, but he was still mainly in one piece when he died.

If it made a hole in him that rules out HESH (though a HESH round would definitely have killed him; that kind of pressure wave does unpleasant things to your organs). They probably would have mentioned if he was on fire, so it's probably not HEIAP. APDS would have gone right through the other side, and from a rifle might not have even killed him (yeah it's through the heart, but it's such a tiny hole that he'd have plenty of time for magical healing before bleeding out). So I think this is either HEAT (if they were serious about it killing dragons) or a conventional anti-armor shell.

Hmm. Actually if dragon scales are softer than I was thinking, conventional slugs might work better than explosives. I need more information on the ballistic properties of the defenses of fictional animals, it seems.

I've seen their computer online a few times, but only for a few minutes at a time the last couple days. Things sounded like they were going relatively well earlier though...

I have it on good authority that someone operated his paypal account today. So unless he got hacked or someone is operating it in his behalf, at least he's alive and has some amount of access to the internet.

An additional thought re: Chapter 54.

Several events in the late 20s gave Scotch Tape a pathological fear of machines, and her stint in the Fluttershy Medical Center's stasis tanks through the late 30s (followed by messy machine-assisted surgery) couldn't have helped.

...so why was she comfortable with riding on and in Deus?

Her phobia seems to have slipped everyone's minds.

Pretty much the same thing hit me today, but not with the machines - with bucks.
She was fucking petrified by bucks after what happened on the Seahorse. Wouldn't go near any bar P-21.
Now in the last few chapters she's been talking about getting with some colts from Chapel? WAT?!?

She should be fucking scared of them and definitely NOT speaking about having any kind of sexual relations with them.
She heard what happened to Blackjack, that fucked her up (or was supposed to) yet it seems to do nothing now.

Also, don't fuck up on the Goddess Somber. God knows that's due in the next chapter, remember?

Children are different from adults, I expect. Smaller, for one thing.

@Swicked
Finally got to reading that review. Very, very worth it. Who was the other person to request this?

@Snipehamster
Thought that by now she got over it. I mean look at Blackjack and P-21, they for the most part seem to have gotten past their traumas, barring the current ones being inflicted.

Keep in mind Scotch Tape has been wandering around with a mostly-robotic Blackjack for some time now. She may have lost her phobia when Blackjack was being augmented.

Children are also very receptive to what the adults around them are feeling. When Blackjack came to terms (or close to it) with what happened to her, it's possible Scotch Tape picked up on this and is trying to emulate her by attempting to get past what had happened.

We had a kid come into our yard and stare at us through our window today. We asked him what he was doing, and where he had come from, but he didn't say anything, just smiled at us. It was honestly a bit creepy; kept waiting for his psychotic cannibal brother to show up. Anyway, he wandered off and seemed like he knew where he was going on. Kids are strange.

Weren't Scotch Tape's memories altered by magical means? Y'know, to cure her of her phobias?

Yes, which removed the flashbacks but left her extremely uncomfortable around machinery without even knowing why because the trauma was somewhere deeper in the mind than simple recollections. But she did seem to me to be getting past it gradually; either she's just pushing herself to ignore it and get the job done anyway, presenting a brave face to the outside because everybody else has their own shit to deal with, or she's actually recovering rapidly. Of course she is P-21's daughter, and he's managed to mostly overcome a lifetime of torture in about two months...

I think Scotch has been able to get over her fears thanks in part to Blackjack coming clean about altering the memories, so Scotch at least understands why she has these irrational fears. Also, since P-21 admitted he was her father (something else removed from her memory) they may have been helping eachother overcome their fears. Especially her fear of males could have been helped by P-21 admitting he's uncomfortable around mares, and that his reasons are far more involved than Scotch's fears.

Scotch got her cutie mark from building stuff and presumably working with machines. I like the idea that she got over her fear by working through it unintentionally and maturing, if that's the case.

Also Glory being on the rag could explain weird behaviour among everyone.

Correction for you: Glory isn't on the rag yet, she's entering her most fertile state.
I don't know how MLP handles fertility, but its been stated she's coming into where she's most likely to conceive, so she's yet to be on the rag.

And holy crap Derpmind, that's awesome! I definitely like the style.

Let's see if something else can be crammed into this post. Here's a song. While not about MLP, it does mention a pony, and now it's stuck in my head and plays whenever I read a PH recovery chapter.

My bad. Shy

So, anyone think we've seen the last of Luna's Guards? They could be a powerful ally if they can be convinced (presumably by Stygius) to aid Blackjack, especially against the Enclave.
