I'm going to continue to argue that we should not pursue this. Truly, who are we to judge when it comes to taking terrible actions to save the ones you love?Yeah, there's going to be a fleeting opportunity to speak with Comet Feet about the Master being inside Shining Armor.
Or we could just… not do that. It's totally an option to just tacitly accept that Comet didn't have much voice IIRC and not do anything about it.
Same tbh. Velvet and Comet Feet already don't have a great relationship, and I just don't really see anything productive coming out of that conversation. Especially since, like, we almost did something pretty similar, and the only reason we didn't is bcuz we had the Big Red Button of Regrettable Actions.I'm going to continue to argue that we should not pursue this.

I think the point of that action is less "You shoudn't have done this" and more "WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T YOU TELL US?".I'm going to continue to argue that we should not pursue this. Truly, who are we to judge when it comes to taking terrible actions to save the ones you love?
If Luna suddenly coming to our monthly tea parties doesn't signpost to Comet that we were up to some non-Master-approved shenanigans I don't know what wouldI think the point of that action is less "You shoudn't have done this" and more "WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T YOU TELL US?".
There is also the matter of making sure Comet Feet knows we betrayed the Cult for real, since he might not have believed it then and it could be part of the reason he hates Velvet.
The Sacrament is dangerous, making two of them on the same turn...yeah, if we are going to do it, it should be one per turn.
Obviously we have to get Celestia there too, and make sure to have her comment on our taxidermied bust of the Master's skull. That might work.If Luna suddenly coming to our monthly tea parties doesn't signpost to Comet that we were up to some non-Master-approved shenanigans I don't know what would
I mean... The Master did make our Main Objective be bringing Luna to our side. I think he would be more surprised she is alive though.If Luna suddenly coming to our monthly tea parties doesn't signpost to Comet that we were up to some non-Master-approved shenanigans I don't know what would
"Damn, Velvet is carrying on the Master's work even when he's dead. She must be really loyal!"I mean... The Master did make our Main Objective be bringing Luna to our side. I think he would be more surprised she is alive though.
I'm pretty sure Comet Feet was well aware the Master wasn't dead back then(they did make a deal after all) and since he gave up climbing I doubt he will see what happened with the Woods or figure out they're really dead instead of possessing Shining Armor."Damn, Velvet is carrying on the Master's work even when he's dead. She must be really loyal!"
I mean, it's not our fault the Master made assumptions on Luna's state based on incomplete evidence, and we later found better evidence, right?
(I am still amazed that we managed to not only keep Luna secret, but actually killed the Master before even bringing her back.)
It's less that he would have to think the Master is the Woods, and more that he would have to think the Master was in the Woods. Because as far as we can tell literally everything there died, not just the Woods themselves. And it's pretty safe to assume that unless the Master was like Marinette and all of them came through, the majority of their existence would be in the Woods.Again, do we have any hint that Comet figured out the Master is the Woods?
As far as he knows, that bit of landscaping around the walls of the Mansus is unrelated to the Master's plans.
Assuring him that we didn't and that the Master is definitely 100% dead would require admitting to the whole "Regrettable Action" thing, though. Which, I think Bird has said before that Velvet is unwilling to do? (Edit: To talk about Regrettables in general, I mean, not to Comet specifically)Keep in mind, unless Comet figured out what the Master is, he has no way of knowing they're dead. As far as he knows, we loyally helped the Master pull of his reincarnation scheme.
Trying to shove it all in one turn is a bit optimistic. Especially if we don't summon Biedde on turn 19.
I still think doing a book search by hoof is optimistic. Particulalrly if it's in ponyville.
Though the guidebook to the elements of harmony should still be in town...
I'd bring it up to better understand what happened, and if there's any other surprises.I'm going to continue to argue that we should not pursue this. Truly, who are we to judge when it comes to taking terrible actions to save the ones you love?
eh, I think Comet could use the piece of intel that "Master is dead".Same tbh. Velvet and Comet Feet already don't have a great relationship, and I just don't really see anything productive coming out of that conversation. Especially since, like, we almost did something pretty similar, and the only reason we didn't is bcuz we had the Big Red Button of Regrettable Actions.
The danger depends on us failing the roll I think. In which case doing them both while we have the +40 from influence is better.The Sacrament is dangerous, making two of them on the same turn...yeah, if we are going to do it, it should be one per turn.

I kinda sympathize with this viewpoint. But it is the way to get closer to the insanely dangerous edge adept.Same tbh.

I am partial to this. But also because bird talked about... hm. "The way to make names stay around is to become friends with them. The way to become friends with them is to spend more time with them."That said it's not a priority. we could just... give 200 bits to Baldomare (or how much we can afford) and hope she finds something nice instead.
Do we actually care about improving our relationship with him beyond "not a threat to us" tho? Like, the only reason we put so much effort into social-ing him pre-betrayal is because he was the single biggest threat in the cult next to the Master and we needed to either defang him or get rid of him before he got the chance to go murderblender on us.I kinda sympathize with this viewpoint. But it is the way to get closer to the insanely dangerous edge adept.
its precisely because we dont really have any ground to stand on when it comes to criticizing him.
If we wish to improve our friendship with the murder blender. More than one of mutual fear/respect and tolerance...
Thats the way.

I don't think people care, but I think people are very incorrect in not caring. Given how excited they are to try and make us of him.-[X] [FLUTTERSHY] Ask for a favor, from your... mutual friend.
That is a dangerous assumption to make, imo failing the roll means we don't get progress and probably take a mental malus, succeeding means we get progress but we roll on the lore wheel and if we get a bad Velvet she's gonna fuck shit up for us.The danger depends on us failing the roll I think.
