- Hi!
- Here are the mounting messages for FOOL1 to FOOL10, plus the placeholder FOOL11 for every fool after that.
- Please don't hesitate to ask/suggest/critisise/etc :)
- Message = '[FOOL1] takes two steps back, then runs towards [MOUNT] and hops onto [MOUNT-possessive] back'
- if ([FOOL10]==mounted)
- then Message += ', with the teetering pile formed by [FOOL3], [FOOL4], [FOOL6] and [FOOL10] behind [FOOL1-objective]'
- else if ([FOOL6]==mounted)
- then Message += ', with the unstable pile formed by [FOOL3], [FOOL4] and [FOOL6] behind [FOOL1-objective]'
- else if ([FOOL4]==mounted)
- then Message += ', with [FOOL3] and [FOOL4] lying on top of each other behind [FOOL1-objective]'
- else if ([FOOL3]==mounted)
- then Message += ', with [FOOL3] lying on [FOOL3-possessive] belly behind [FOOL1-objective]'
- else if ([FOOL2]==mounted)
- then Message += ', with [FOOL2] riding [MOUNT] behind [FOOL1-objective]'
- Message += '.'
- Message = '[FOOL2] climbs onto [MOUNT]\'s back'
- if ([FOOL3] OR [FOOL1]==mounted)
- then {
- Message += ', behind '
- if ([FOOL10]==mounted)
- then Message += ' the teetering pile formed by [FOOL3], [FOOL4], [FOOL6] and [FOOL10].'
- else if ([FOOL6]==mounted)
- then Message += ' the unstable pile formed by [FOOL3], [FOOL4] and [FOOL6].'
- else if ([FOOL4]==mounted)
- then Message += ' [FOOL3] and [FOOL4], who are lying on top of each other.'
- else if ([FOOL3]==mounted)
- then Message += ' [FOOL3], who is lying on [FOOL3-possessive] belly.'
- else Message += ' [FOOL1], holding on to [FOOL1]\'s [FOOL1-random_clothing] for support.'
- } else Message += '.'
- Message = 'Wriggling [FOOL3-possessive] way between [FOOL1] and [FOOL2], [FOOL3] manages to get [FOOL3-possessive] belly onto [MOUNT-possessive] back, [FOOL3-possessive] legs flailing comically behind [FOOL3-objective].'
- Message = '[FOOL4] walks up to [MOUNT] holding a ladder, sets it up against [MOUNT-possessive] flank and lies face-down on top of [FOOL3]\'s back.'
- Message = '[FOOL5] gives [MOUNT] a big, wet smooch on the lips, then quickly gets under [MOUNT-possessive] belly, clinging on to the saddle straps for dear life.'
- Message = 'With a fearsome yell that sounds remarkably like "{Pancakes|My buns are on fire|...}!", [FOOL6] rushes towards [MOUNT], then launches into a leap which evolves into a perfect somersault... and lands on [FOOL6-possessive] face at the other side of [MOUNT]. [FOOL6-pronoun] gets back on [FOOL6-possessive] feet and just hops on top of [FOOL4], facing the opposite way.'
- Message = '[FOOL7] examines the pile before [FOOL7-objective], then walks up to [MOUNT], whispers something in [MOUNT-possessive] ear and [MOUNT]\'s eyes flare in panic. [FOOL7] gets a firm grip on [FOOL1]\'s [FOOL1-random_clothing] and pulls [FOOL7-objective]self up, sitting astride [MOUNT] facing [FOOL1].'
- Message = '[FOOL8] gives a loud whistle, then breaks into a run toward [MOUNT]. When [FOOL8-pronoun] is close enough, [FOOL8-pronoun] jumps as if to hop on the poor creature\'s back--only to stick [FOOL8-possessive] foot in a pail of whitewash that just happened to be there. Fortunately, [FOOL7] and [FOOL2] manage to grab [FOOL8-possessive] arm and leg, respectively, and [FOOL8-pronoun] ends up hanging on [MOUNT]\'s left flank.'
- if ([FOOL8]==mounted)
- then Message = 'With another loud whistle, [FOOL9] runs to the other side of [MOUNT], and just tries to mimic [FOOL8]\'s manoeuvre. [FOOL9-pronoun] botches it, though, and ends up with [FOOL9-possessive] nose under [MOUNT]\'s tail, which seems to cause no end of merriment among the troupe. [FOOL7] and [FOOL2] manage to relocate [FOOL9-objective] into a slightly more dignified position.'
- else Message = '[FOOL9] gives a loud whistle, then breaks into a run toward [MOUNT]. When [FOOL9-pronoun] is close enough, [FOOL9-pronoun] jumps as if to hop on the poor creature\'s back--only to stick [FOOL9-possessive] foot in a pail of whitewash that just happened to be there. Fortunately, [FOOL7] and [FOOL2] manage to grab [FOOL8-possessive] arm and leg, respectively, and [FOOL8-pronoun] ends up hanging on [MOUNT]\'s left flank.'
- Message = '[FOOL10] approaches [MOUNT], uses [FOOL5]\'s left cheek as a stirrup and several parts of [FOOL8]\'s anatomy for balance and purchase. [FOOL10-pronoun] slowly but surely makes [FOOL10-possessive] way to the top of the pile, accompanied by an assortment of grunts, moans and at least one scream from the other Fools. Eventually [FOOL10-pronoun] makes it to the top of the pile where [FOOL10-pronoun] sits, triumphant. [MOUNT] does not look particularly impressed, however.'
- Message = '[FOOL11] tries to get on top of [MOUNT], and nearly causes the entire troupe to collapse. [FOOL11-pronoun] manages to reach [FOOL-possessive] goal, much to the chagrin of several other fools below [FOOL11-objective].'

- Subject: Fool Pile: Dismounting
- Cc: inside
- Hi!
- I have the first batch of dismounting messages for you to peruse--and hopefully,
- use too :)
- Stage 2. Dismounting
- Message = '[FOOL11] deftly climbs [FOOL11-possessive] down from the pile of fools, stepping on everyone\'s toes both figuratively and literally. [FOOL11-pronoun] reaches the ground safely and gives a quick bow, followed by a pained whimper.'
- if ([FOOL11]==mounted) then dismount(FOOL11)
- Message = '[FOOL10] flexes and, with an audible grunt from [FOOL6], [FOOL10-pronoun] does a double-backward flip and lands on [FOOL10-possessive] feet. Remembering [FOOL10-possessive] training at the last second, [FOOL10-pronoun] loses [FOOL10-possessive] balance and falls on [FOOL10-possessive] butt on one of the {cowpies|puddles|pools of unmentionable goo} that add to the area\'s decor.'
- Message = 'Realising that [FOOL9] is picking [FOOL9-possessive] nose and wiping [FOOL9-possessive] finger on [FOOL7]\'s [FOOL7-random_clothing], [FOOL/-pronoun] lets go of [FOOL9] without a care for [FOOL9-possessive] safety. A sickening crunch and much groaning and whimpering ensues.'
- Message = 'Suddenly, [FOOL8] starts struggling, until the best efforts of [FOOL7] and [FOOL2] are not enough to hold on to [FOOL8-objective]. [FOOL8-pronoun] falls to the floor, on [FOOL8-possessive] back, and throws a tantrum worthy of an Ankhian toddler, then gets up and leaves, all the rage seemingly gone.'
- Message = 'With a quick wink to the other fools, [FOOL7] slides to one side and, just when [FOOL7-pronoun] is about to drop off the [MOUNT], [FOOL7-pronoun] quickly curls up into a ball, spins just the right amount and lands in a handstand. With a slow-motion cartwheel, [FOOL7-pronoun] returns to an upright position, pleased with [FOOL7-objective]self.'
- if ([FOOL10]==mounted) then dismount([FOOL10])
- Message = 'In an unfortunate fit of inspiration, [FOOL6] starts to tickle [FOOL4], which causes [FOOL4-objective] to shake hard enough to throw [FOOL6] to the ground. It might have been a graceful landing. It is not.'
- Message = '[FOOL5] releases one of [MOUNT]\'s saddle straps, and swings backwards in a perfect arc that gives [FOOL5-objective] the right momentum to land on [FOOL5-possessive] feet, light as a feather.'
- Message = '[FOOL4] manages to shift [FOOL4-possessive] position with only a bit of effort, ending up on all fours on top of [FOOL3], who doesn\'t sound too thrilled about the improvement. Then [FOOL4] gently climbs down from [MOUNT]\'s back and lands on [FOOL4-possessive] feet with just the slightest wobble.'
- if ([FOOL4]==mounted) then dismount([FOOL4])
- Message = 'Battered and bruised, [FOOL3] descends from [MOUNT] and stretches [FOOL3-possessive] limbs with a long sigh of relief.'
- Message = 'Holding on to [FOOL1]\'s shoulder for balance, [FOOL2] descends from the back of [MOUNT].'
- Message = '[FOOL1] gets down from the saddle with a quick hop.'

- Cc: inside
- Hi!
- Here are the three messages for fools falling off their mount:
- Regular (20%-80% success)
- Message = '[FOOL] turns [FOOL-possessive] fall into a somersault, landing safely on [FOOL-possessive] feet.'
- Critical failure (0%-19%)
- Message = '[FOOL] tries to keep [FOOL-possessive] balance, but doesn\'t quite make it and lands painfully on [FOOL-possessive] buttocks. Ouch.'
- Critical success (81%-100%)
- Message = '[FOOL] effortlessly turns [FOOL-possessive] fall into a triple, backwards somersault, landing in a perfect handstand. [FOOL-pronoun] moves back a bit and then pushes [FOOL-objective]self into an upright position, from which [FOOL-pronoun] skips back to [MOUNT], whistling a cheerful tune.'
- Thank you for including me in this :)
