[The scroll is being held so it provides a view of a large cylindrical wooden structure, along with 21 using his mechanical wings to hammer something near the top. 24 begins to speak.]

It sounds like some of you have been working up an appetite.

[His voice gets louder.]

Hey, 21, have you heard that going into battle for your Princess can make you hungry?

Oh, really? I wouldn't know about that.

So since we didn't have anything else to do, we thought we'd give you ponies something to look forward to after you're done shaking all those leaves off the trees.

Look out for Equestria's Largest Hamburger and Equestria's Largest Glass of Cider!

Coming soon to a Ponyville Park near you!

You just did it yourself.

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

I got into a rhythm.

[Visual]

[thunderinghero]

[Oh, it's on. You want to see superhero? He'll give you superhero. Utsusemimaru's fooling around with something on his wrist...er, ankle, and now he's got a battery...]

Brave in!

[He'll stick that into the thing on his ankle and do a little transformation dance...]

Kyoryu change! FIRE!

[And now he's transformed into a superhero!]

The thundering hero, Kyoryu Gold! Vanquishing evil in Heaven's name!

[Yes, he struck a pose and somehow a multicolored explosion went off behind him, such are how his superhero physics work.]

I shall be there quickly to make certain you are not harming any innocents!

[Visual]

[buckleupforsafety]

Did you just shoot off a confetti canon?

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

Oh cool, we've got a superhero with special effects.

Arching him would be so much cooler than arching Dr. Venture!

[Visual]

[buckleupforsafety]

I'll bet he doesn't have a Brock Samson either.

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

Oh man, my spine is overjoyed at this news.

[Visual]

[buckleupforsafety]

Maybe we'll get a laser light show instead of lasers. Trying to cut us in half.

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

Also a good thing! I don't think pony bodies can be acrobatic enough to dodge the lasers.

[Visual]

[thunderinghero]

[Half of this is going right over Utsusemimaru's head, but he thinks he's followed along enough.]

I will have you know, I do not fight with lasers. I do, however, have this!

[How he is holding a sword with the helmet and the hooves and everything is really anyone's guess, but yeah. He has a sword.]

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

Oh, no lasers? Bummer.

[Visual]

[buckleupforsafety]

Hey, hey, but he has a sword.

"By the power of Hoofskull!"

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

Heh, Hoofskull. Nice.

But dude, we don't really do swords. [whispered] We couldn't even handle a guy with a knife.

[Visual]

[buckleupforsafety]

[also whispered] And the time with the spears in the library.

So uh...sorry Cow Boy. We'll have to decline your application. It's not you. It's us.

[Visual]

[thunderinghero]

I am not applying for anything! I am merely declaring my intent to prevent you from going through with whatever it is you may do to those cows!

[He sounds half convicted, half confused.]

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

Which, although not an application in a traditional sense, is considered a means of applying for arching rights. And, yeah, from what we can see of your power level vs our power levels, weaponry, hell even your cause- it just won't work out, dude. Sorry.

[Visual]

[thunderinghero]

Arching rights? Whatever do you mean?

[He is confused behind that helmet.]

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

Well... you know. Arching rights.

[21 looks over at 24 with a 'What the hell kind of superhero doesn't know these things' look.]

Like, you would become our sole, exclusive archenemy.

[Visual]

[buckleupforsafety]

We may be bad guys but there are still rules.

[Visual]

[thunderinghero]

Oh! Ah...I already have a destined archenemy anyway, even if he is not here right now.

[Visual]

[buckleupforsafety]

You already have an archenemy?

We don't want your sloppy seconds.

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

Why would you go through all this threatening stuff if you already have an arch? Way to waste our time, dude!

[Visual]

[thunderinghero]

I will fight evil wherever I find it, even if it is not being perpetrated by Dogold and the rest of the Deboss!

[Visual]

[buckleupforsafety]

And we might be stuck in pastel pony land, but we're still Guild members. That's not how we work.

Re: [Visual]

[thunderinghero]

That seems...odd...and unusually respectful of the rules for evildoers.
