Chapter 16: Published February 20th 2013 was on a Wednesday and was in week 08 of 2013.
As of this writing it was 2975 days ago
So MLP FiM would air Season 1, epi 23, "The Cutie Mark Chronicles" on April 15, 2011
It would also go to air Epi 1&2 of Season 7, "Celestial Advice" & "All Bottled Up" in 2017
So, are you wondering what was in the drawer that freaked everybody out? The real Cosmo's heart. Looking like it just came out of a body not 5 minutes ago, cause MAGIC. Taxi demands her 5 minutes and Swift is using that trope where you breath into a paper bag, how handy they just so happen to have one with them.
Actually, breathing into a paper bag to calm down is a pretty good trick that normally works.
But on the plus side, there was the diary and there was the ledger! Woot... Wait why is the ledger's cover made of leather?
honey or the brother?
Okay, is it normal that Cosmo sends 6 ponies to his house? Or does he know that Hardy and gang are there?
I just wanted a beating heart, no way was I going to look for a HORSE's beating heart
So Hardy does escape, and man, How many fences did he jump to catch up to the cab? Poor guy.
I could still feel the heart, thudding back and forth in my pocket in time to my pulse, like a happy kitten that's found a friend.
Oh, bonding!
After my short dizzy spell, my partner and driver managed to wrestle me into the back seat of the cab without too many questions asked. It might have looked, to the untrained eye, like I passed out, but that was deceptive. Detective ponies don't have fainting spells. We have combat naps.
Uh huh.
Okay... The idea of Swift coming up with a place to be safe... I'm a little afraid. And then Hardy explaining that he's not a fan of theme hotels... Oh gods Swift, where are we going?
or maybe... Hardy is to tired to say no.
Telly gave us unlimited credit, and even said she’d let you have this one for free so long as we asked for their specialty rooms.
You should be very VERY worried
They’re giving us the wedding suite
Every drop of blood in my body turned to solid ice.
I don't think that worried enough.
The bed was the true horror.I’d seen a heart in a drawer and a box full of broken unicorn horns just that morning. The day before, I’d been stomped and nearly killed by a paranoid spy and her massive meat-shield. Before that, a crazed coroner tried to feed my partner an eyeball freeze-pop.None of it compared to that bed,
*giggle* Oh, go look up the High Seas in the Who's Who if you dont want to read the chapter to get the full details of the room. Of *course* Telly told Jade
Hardy wakes up to sharing a bed with Scarlet, at least Scarlet hasn't kissed him yet.
Okay, so what's in the book. Blackmail, and a story of just how rotten the core of Detrot is. Fuck, it can't be used at all. (if it had been acquired legally anyways)
4 people volunteering to go into a drug lab of a crime lord. That's actually a lot!
Oh... Um... leaving the box with the heart in the cab was prob a dumb idea if your asking for the cab to get detailed. *snort*
Oh hey look, the chapter ended. Lets have a peek at the comments, 57
This ad used too many resources for your device, so Chrome removed it.
Um, I'm on a computer... what is to many resources?
Hardy, I swear if you keep breaking that poor stallion's heart... Just give in, ya daft hard ass!
GMBlackjack I want to be a hundred percent clear that any time you feel like you have a handle on what is going on before the middle bits of Act 3, you're probably wrong.
That being said, I did actually give away who the bad guy is early on in Act 2. Nobody has ever picked on the clue. I had to explain it to them, directly.

No body believes me when I say this, but the people of Detroit are and will be the nicest people you will meet north of the Line. I've walked down the sorry, haven't been there in years, can remember the road that divides the East & West End at night, without being shot (go figure). It's simple, though; the one rule in Detroit: Keep yo nose outta other people's bidnuss.
sorry, haven't been there in years, can remember the road that divides the East & West End :twilightblush: is what is hidden here
I guess you could say that the heart's really out of the box now.
*jumps of cliff* I REGRET NOTHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING
Siggy is just a lot of fun, GO READ
Taxi with powers of Krav Maga and Daddy Issues!
Swift with powers of Carnivory and Green-horn Optimisim!
Hardy with powers of Alcoholism and Heart!
By your powers combined, I am Captain Gumshoe!
dat ending
Loved this chapter, poor hardy got put through a lot of shit though.
Honestly if it weren't for the characters i think i'd be cringing through the settings used too. Not to mention the heart in the box (I keep thinking of the Nirvana song "heart shaped box").
So...from what I can see from this chapter, the murdered filly was probably killed in the worst way possible and may of may not have something to do with the Luna religion, Stitch is like a super morbid male Pinkie - I guess I know who originally built the place, and above all, Swift is really, really going to need more ginger candy.

Dancewithknives Well, I didn't put zebras in as black people precisely. Just... you know, a different culture.
-Chessie
Dancewithknives See? I can't write a city that unpleasant. Mine just has insane mobsters and dragons.
-Chessie
Lots of good points... NOT GOING TO PUT THE NOVEL HERE
go read
The Cakemeister Oh, yeah, Stitch is amazing to write. He's always a giggle and whatever scene you pop him into, he can make somebody lose their lunch. As has been mentioned, he's probably related to Pinkie Pie. Nobody has worked up the courage to ask how he came into being because the answer might well be 'I woke up in the morgue one evening and decided to stay'.
Dancewithknives Well, if you notice any massive issues with how the city is laid out, feel free to tell me. I really only used the environment and applied the world we were building over top of it. It's Equestria with 60 years of very accelerated industrial development.
Silvernis Dawww, I giggled. Yeah, we usually do our updates every two weeks. This next chapter is going to take a bit longer but it'll be bigger too.
-Chessie
POLISH MY BOX OF HEART, DAMMIT!
Also, I have to admit that this is one of the few stories on my fav list that I get genuinely excited to see updates for.
meerkat8472 You like your girls with an extra side of crazy, don'tcha? Heehee!

Scarlett puffed out his chest with a proudly magnanimous smile and replied, “Four!”
Very subtle Doctor who reference? I'm going with yes.
2152230 Heh, Next Chapter is going to be AWESOME... I do like that I'm making people both dread AND enjoy reading this.
Delerious Eeyup...Kasen writes those pre-notes and he's funny as hell.
Dancewithknives Yeeeah, Detrot isn't a nice place. It's nasty even for Equestria and let's face it, Equestria's a shit-hole.
Poco Which bit? There's so much bad in this chapter...
