((ooc: My terrible old webcomic doesn’t seem to be on the internet archive, so I can probably assume every copy has been destroyed and nopony will ever see it again.
Also, I have a box of Lorna Doone shortbread cookies. Those are delicious.))
Excellent. We hope to hear good things from you in the future.
((ooc: This got me looking through old geocities sites on the internet archive, and now I feel old and kind of depressed…
Anypony else here remember and miss the old internet? I’ve been online since I was very young, starting in the days when phone-in BBSes were just starting to die (but still were very active) and Usenet was the hip new place. Fun fact: Mosaic (the worlds first popular web browser) was released the year my dad got our first modem (before that I had to go over to my grandfather’s house to get online). Of course I wouldn’t actually see a web browser until about 4 years later…))
Of course. Keep Us informed as to your progress.

Things have been going surprisingly well. We got a chance to test the stage 2 prototype against an alien invasion fleet, and it worked splendidly! More then splendidly, it was a massacre! And once Project Luna is complete We will be able to move the dangerous refining and manufacturing processes off-world, as well as construct assorted orbital attack platforms.
So, right now it looks like the only hold-up on Our plan is your little project… *Sigh* We were hoping to avoid having to act directly in your plan, but if We want something done right We suppose We will have to do it Ourselves. Since it is evident your minions are clearly incompetent (since how else could they fail when lead by such an obviously skilled leader) We will lend you some of Ours. Contact Arcel and tell him We want him to aid you. He is an extremely skilled with illusions and deceptions, but a bit… hampered by conventional morality. It would be best if he was kept in the dark about any of the more… unfortunate necessities of your plans.
We must thank Comrade Colt for this lovely portrait of Us with Arcel. It is truly a work of magnificence.
We can manage that easily enough. Ever since the incident with Dark Descent We have been keeping stockpiles of magic hidden throughout the castle in case of emergency. We will just use one of those. One moment…
*She walks off for a bit, then returns, the gem now glowing a bright green.*
Here you are. Fully charged.
There’s no need for that. We have plenty of gems in Our treasury. *She concentrates for a moment, and a sizeable emerald appears.*
Should We commence charging it now?
