Thread 29!
Well, after the resolution of the Dark Soul plotline, Our Heroes landed the Sereni-Tree in a meadow among dandelions and have been relaxing. We healed, repaired the ship, sang some songs, and started breeding blue fishies and piffleponies. The piffleponies really caught on, and a race was suggested. I'll re-post the race course when I get a chance, but it is toward the end of the previous thread:

For now, the contestants in the race are Serenity, PsychicRiver, and Bride6. Hopefully, somebody else will be interested!
As a lurking side-plot, Emma and Rat have taken one of our shuttles, the Admiral Nelson, and have gone off on a trading mission. These things usually end in some kind of alien invasion of us, so be prepared for that. Otherwise, we will have to go looking for that pair sometime soon.

Droppymccool jumps out of the lurkers box and streaks the track. And gets hauled off by security.

Huh. Wonder how he got the name, "Droppy"?

Okay, I’ve marked off a course. First, head in that direction, up the steep hill. From the top of the cliff on the other side of that hill, dive into the lake below. Swim to the island in the middle of the lake, and pick up one of the four-leaf clovers that are common there. Swim back to this location on the shore of the lake, and head through this thick, trackless forest, dodging trees and fallen logs as you go. Finally, a long straight-away to the finish line, where you will have to ring this red bell as you zoom past. The first one to ring the bell AND who still has his or her four-leaf clover is the winner!
Any questions?
Right!
Mount your piffleponies!
Uh, PsychicRiver, no fair levitating your pony and flying it around the whole course.
So far we have:
Serenity riding Patience
Bride6 riding Prudence
PsychicRiver riding Ororo
Hmmmm... Goodness, Droppy, wouldn't it be interesting if the penalty for streaking was... having to compete in a race? Here is your pifflepony. Good luck!

Just try not to get stepped on, that's a lot harder to fix.

What we need in order to really enjoy these races is some yummy food.
*Takes out magical wish granting plank* (Good think I held on to this last one)
TA DA!
A fully stocked concession stand appears just outside the track. Cotton candy, hotdogs, nachos, twizzlers, popcorn, and all kinds of delish... AND ITS ALL FREE!
