[X] Plan: Let's Not Kidnap a Prominent Figure From Canterlot
[X] Plan: Devouring the Sky
The idea of inviting Spoiled and then Mothing Her while Grailing our Father- or a random Predator- is incredible. All the benefits of my combo idea without the fallout for the Rich family. Wonderful.
But...
[X] Plan: Devouring the Sky
I have a sneaking suspicion that the reason 5/9 is the turning point is because we'll have an easier time recruiting more ponies the more Lores we tell the Bureau about. After all, everyone has 2 Lores they're aligned with. So the more Lores we tell them about, the...
Your advice helped immensely. I'm hoping that this is a bit better.

Right now, you are in your office- a new accommodation- and absently rubbing at your Hoof- no, no… your hoof. Sighing, you push it aside. The ache had been there for a full month...
For the first: Would you enjoy that? Me making this a full on Fic as opposed to a string of Omakes tied into more of a side-Quest? I wouldn’t mind, but I’d need to know it was something people would actually want.
For the second, I’m willing to do that. Next time I have the free time.
Thank you for this! I think I’ll look over this… chapter, I guess? And I’ll take your advice to heart. Honestly writing a longer fic wouldn’t be unpleasant, and your advice is picking a couple sticking points that bothered me to mind. Thank you!

Today, you were… not dreaming. The ache in your hind leg was lingering- which you'd spoken to a doctor about, and gotten the right medicines and bandaging to mostly help it recover- which left you unable to properly work. You'd been handling a more...
I've been convinced effortlessly to Moth Spoiled and Grail our 'daddy dearest'. Thank you, SO much dear fellows, for giving me this alternative. At least we'd have a use for Beidde other than the Sacrament by capturing our father as a prisoner. I could far more easily enjoy this. Again, THANK you.
[X] Plan Exact Spending
Much as I’d like to have her spend more time with Cadence in Canterlot and then also do her Sacrament… I can accept this. As much as I’d like to let Beidde leave, I acknowledge the necessity of his Sacrament for the sake of AP.
If there were other, equally AP efficient...
Befriending Mareinette is the primary goal. If we can pull double duty, that saves on a lot of AP, but if we can’t, then Grail going first is something I’d accept. I do hope that we can pull off the double-Sacrament though.
That isn't exactly true. Sacraments have been stated to be capable of being performed before you reach 4/4 scraps, it's just not something a person usually does. We could do the Moth Sacrament right now, if we wanted. We'd just need to read the book afterwards before we could get to Moth 5. So...
Yes. Exactly. Mechanically, it has not received a no. So, if enough people are on board for it, Bird is willing to discuss/think about it. People are coming around to the idea, and discussion on how to make it happen as a normal, individual Sacrament are already happening with little if any...

[X] Plan Knife, Name, and Candle
That's My Two cents on the vote.
But to clarify… I think the tides are turning on the Grail Sacrament. More people are beginning to be okay with- or at least resigned to doing- it, and the general vibe I got from the last few page...
On the Moth/Grail Whombo-Combo Sacrament Boogaloo.
People don't like the idea of Grail-Sac'ing Spoiled because she's 'not that bad'. And to be fair, that's true, but... she's also the worst pony we currently know. The Moth->Grail Sacrament Combo saves time, effort, and resources. It is...
First, I think Bird said they'd be okay with the idea of a combination double sacrament if we could get enough people on-board with the idea. I, for one, am willing. Two in one is VALUABLE, and beyond that… seeing how Spoiled treats Diamond… I can't help but find myself disgusted with her. What...
