AE: “So which one should we do next?”
SS: “Hmmm…well that one about national anthems might be good. Could do that in just one picture…Might even have one in the pile seeing as ‘Her Majesty’ still refuses to come out of the dressing room.”
AE: “Maybe. What did you have in mind?”
SS: “Oh, something witty. Short and snappy you know. Is that allowed in the list?”
AE: “Let me see…<Rustle>
S: “Ah, good day to you, gentlecolts! How’s my tumblr team tumbling? Hah!”
SS: “Oh, uh, fine, sir. Just discussing which post should go up today, that’s all.”
SE: “Awesome! Is it the St. George’s Day one?”
AE: “…The what now?”
SE: “St. George’s Day. He’s the English patron saint. Kinda like how St. Patrick was the Irish one. I did give you guys a list of all these things.”
<The sound of a lot of rustling paper>
SS: “Uhh, I think we may have mislaid it.”
SE: “Awwr, come on you guys. I put a lot of work into this. Why did you even make me your head researcher if you don’t even pay attention to the research?”
AE: “We do, Miss Eccentric it’s just there is an awful lot of it…so many names and dates and historical notes. It’s like high school all over again.”
SS: “I thought you said you liked history.”
AE: “I do…High School on the other hoof.”
SE: “Well you can’t miss this one. Heck, you already missed St. Davids day. Got a few Welsh Bronies a bit annoyed at that. Doesn’t look well for BUCK if you can’t engage with all the people in the UK. After St. Paddies I thought you’d have something awesome planned.”
AE: “Well we may very well have done if we didn’t have to suddenly rewrite the entire concept behind- Mmph!”
SS: “Don’t worry, we’ll have something ready to go. Won’t we, After Eight?”
AE: <Muffled Noise>
S: “Why’d you stuff a candy bar in his mouth?”
AE: “Just giving him some extra energy. Low blood sugar, you know? He’s gonna need it for our extra special St. Gorge’s day extravaganza.”
S: “Well that’s excellent! Can’t wait to see it. Well I guess we’d best leave you to it.” <Sound of receding hoofsteps>
SE: “Um…do you guys want some help with this? I mean, if you’ve lost the paperwork I suppose you’re gonna need a hoof with getting it right.”
SS “If you wouldn’t mind, Slightly.”
SE: “AWESOME! Now the important thing is we’re gonna need some roses, an English flag oh, and a dragon.”
AE: <gulp>“…A dragon?! Why a dragon?”
SE: “Oh, apparently this St. George guy slayed a dragon and that’s like a big deal to the English for some reason. Something to do with the symbolism of defeating evil in the name of good…or possibly a god. I’ll go and check.” <Sound of receding hoofsteps>
AE: “…A dragon, Sketchy?”
SS: “Apparently so.”
AE: “Where in Equestria are we going to get a dragon at short notice?”
Transcript taken from AFTER EIGHT: The Ask Princess Britannia Writer & Director, SKETCHY SOUNDS: Sound Engineer and Co-Writer, SLIGHTLY ECCENTRIC: Public Relations Officer & Lead UK Cultural Researcher for the D.I.D.R and SPIKE: A reluctant dragon.
SPIKE: “I thought you said the thing was about a brave and heroic knight?”
SE: “Oh, it is, it is. The story of St. George is that he saved a Princess from certain death.”
SPIKE: “By slaying a dragon.”
SS: “Uh…yes…but it was a very bad dragon. I mean, eating Princesses, you know, not really a good thing, you know?”
SPIKE: “Yeah…a bad dragon that you want me to play.”
SE: “Well you could hardly play the knight, I mean, that’d just be confusing.”
SPIKE: “Uh huh, so instead you want me to lie on the ground while your Princess…what was her name again?”
AE: “Britannia.”
SPIKE: “Yeah, right, her. While she sticks a trident in me…whatever happened to the real one? You know, the one on all the posters? Posh voice. Real tough cookie. That’s the only Britannia I’ve ever heard of.”
SE: “She’s…uh…”
AE: <Faint whimpering>
SS: “No longer part of the project…You know, city to save, limits on scheduling.”
SPIKE: “Don’t talk to me about scheduling. You try being a Princess’s Number One Assistant…a real princess, that is…Speaking of which…yeah, I think I’ll give this a pass. I mean not that getting slain wouldn’t be buckets of fun and all but I’ve got more important things to do…like help clean up Canterlot…or do some more Emergency Checklists.”
SE: “But this is a very important job…You…you don’t know how much of a service you’ll be doing for interdimensional relations. You’ll help your country further the bonds between Equestria and an alien civilisation.”
SPIKE: “By getting stabbed with a spear?”
AE: “T…trident.”
SE: “It’s very important to their culture.”
SPIKE: “Pretty sick culture if you ask me.”
AE: “PLEAA-HE-HE-HEAASE!!!~ You’ve got to help us! We need this thing done by the end of the day!! My whole career depends on iiiit!”
SPIKE: “Whoah…what’s his problem?”
SS: “He’s under a lot of pressure. But we seriously need a dragon for this.”
SPIKE: “Why don’t you just make one?”
SE: “…We can’t do that. Can we? No it’d take too long. I mean first we’d need to get a breeding pair and then we’d need to wait for the gestation period, then for the eggs to hatch. How long do dragons-”
SS: “I don’t think he meant it like that, Slightly.”
SPIKE: “No…I didn’t…I think…What did you mean by ‘breeding pair’?”
SS: “Uh, never mind.”
SPIKE: “Well, when I said ’Make’ what I meant was that I know a certain fashion designer who happens to be very good at making dragon costumes…I could put a good word in for you…I might even be convinced to help you out with your little project.”
AE: <Sniff> “Y…you would?”
SPIKE: “Oh yeah. I mean, anything to further the bonds of friendship, yunno… On one condition, of course.”
SS:“…Which would be?”
SPIKE: “Well, you said this George guy saves a Princess, right?”
