Pickle actually reminds me of one of the Forsaken from The Wheel of Time series. And I can really blame him for becoming a doctor if he likes watching ponies being in pain. He's in a good spot. There are people/ponies/whatever, who are honestly into feeling pain, and as long as everybody is consenting and a legal adult, its not anybody else business. Okay, so maybe Pickle enjoyed "fixing" Hardy a little more than he should have, and maybe there was a non painful way to do it, but. Hardy got fixed for free, and like he said, there an upper limit to how much pain you can handle. Oh, I forgot, that particular healing spell has a chance to make your heart explode.
I'm not quoting what Swift looks like, but I am going to see if I can find a picture of it.
The story about Carnival is dark and depressing. But Hardy makes a good point. Its not the uniform that makes the cop. Its defending ponies.
It wasn’t quite fear of death; most magical injuries are survivable, but there are some you wouldn’t want to.
The whole talk with the spy is interesting. I wish we could have gotten her name, but meh... Svelte is enough I guess. Just wish it was something I understood how to pronounce. So Cosmo wanted Ruby. But he might not be the top of the food chain here. Interesting.
I love that Hardy give the spy a chance to make right.
Oh hey look, the chapter ended. Lets have a peek at the comments, 25

Mmmmm... doors... 
I lightly caress the door handle, brushing the underside with teasing, feathery fingertips. I grasp the smooth, protruding knob and slowly turn it. First one way and then the other. Never very far, never all the way. I do not want to open the door all at once; far better to draw out the process, riding the edge between "open" and "closed" until the tension became unbearable. After a few more teasing half-turns, I rotate the handle all the way and pull the door towards me. It stops with a solid *THUNK*, held fast by the solid deadbolt embedded in the tight strike plate.
"Oh ho! Feisty!"
I brush my hand along the decorative muntin. "Oh you dirty slapper! Playing hard to open? We will see about that!"
I lick my lips in giddy anticipation. Locked doors always got me hot and bothered. The more they resisted, the more satisfying opening them became. I pull a key out of my pocket and run my tongue along its hard, gleaming length, tracing out the individual bumps and lightly flicking against the tip.
"Mummy's got just the key for you," I whisper as I slowly trace the tip of the key around the keyhole before stopping just inside the opening. "I will have you unlocked and opened to me in ten seconds flat!"
I pause for a moment to let the tension build to a climax before roughly yanking the door-knocker with my other hand while pushing the key completely into the lock.
"THAT'S RIGHT! TAKE IT! TAKE IT UP THE TUMBLERS ALL THE WAY YOU DIRTY DOOR!"
I give the key one final rough push to ensure it is set firmly before turning it, slowly applying more pressure, prolonging the action to agonising slowness, delaying the moment of release as long as possible. After a breathless eternity, the lock catches with a satisfying *CLICK* and the door finally yields to my caress, opening silently, smoothly on well oiled hinges. I trace a finger along the exposed latch, lightly caressing the bare escutcheon plates.
"Oh yeah..." I whisper, "Who is an open door now?"

*Ahem* (And that is why I am banned from the hardware store).
Did I just write a self-insert semi-clopfic about a bloody door? OH GOD! WHAT HAVE I DONE! I blame Significant Other! It is all his fault!
