...what if the ship were already made of butter?

Also I may have found a lost relative of Derpy's on my keepsake shelf. I'll have to get home to confirm.

"You found my cousin?!" Derpy sits in excited anticipation.

It will take a few days to get back to where they are tucked away, but they are currently keeping company with a three (and a half) legged pegasus.

edit: I found a picture online!

@Den: Makes perfect sense. Google is still weird in my book to throw it among the other results, but now at least we call it weirdness with a reason.

@mdom: Vive la butter! ^^

@Kaderin: Oh my, censor bars as Derpy's unofficial first wearable item XD reminds me of those times Donald Duck got in trouble for not wearing pants.

@Derpy: By the way, have I ever asked what your favorite color is? I probably have, but I keep forgetting ^^;

@Quiet: Sounds like interesting company for Derpy's lost cousin. He looks a bit more fragile to me anyway, so I wouldn't recommend taking him aboard the pirate ship right now...

Oh Derpy's cousin is quite pygmy, and easily tuckable somewhere safe. I think he could sit comfortably on a toonie.

He does look bigger in the photo. You could earn a fortune as a professional di- oh wait, nevermind. Just reread you found the pic online.

"Shiny!" Derpy waves at the little dragon.

Derpy looks thoughtful for a few moments.
"ALL THE COLORS!" He announces, smiling.

Cool beans! I should get to work on your little surprise then (among with the dozens of other things I haven't finished yet ^^; why is there always so few hours in a month?)

Why indeed? I wonder that myself.
XD
(I say, as I try to overachieve in the Muse thread and do a big-ish project instead of just doing something small, simple, and quick...)
Lol

Derpy's cousin is indeed cute.

Hey, with that many projects, how will we defeat the margarine fleet!!

Fear not! Captain Derpy will lead the Butter Pirates to victory!

DbM, I think you lost your captainship to Derpy xD

Always those mutinys XD
I think we need a bigger fleet.

It ain't fun if there's no mutiny!

I thought that's what you say for the rum.

Rum is what causes the mutiny. We drink and create some ruckus.
