Scheme, Twilight! Scheme for your life!
I don't think a fireball would work, given that they're immune to fire.
At least, I assume they're immune to fire, though I don't think I've ever had cause to look them up.

Long live the rubber ducks.
Now let's sneak into his room and replace all his ducks with ponies.

If people ask, I might actually sing it and put it on youtube, despite not having a quality mic.

Way more expensive. Also, it's much more wear resistant, in the case of tiles. Ceramic as used for knives chips easily, so don't go using it as a camp knife to chop wood when camping, but it will hold a fine edge longer than a steel blade.
Most of them are fashioned after archetypal rubber ducks, so that's what I'm going with.
It at least separates his specific duck obsession from my aunt's more general duck obsession.

What an ominous DM comment.
Hmmm, Philomena doesn't know that they know? This will be interesting; I half expect to see you turn the episode around on its head and have the trickery played on Philomena than the other way around.
Either that or Dash's player, out of frustration, might end up dousing the dang bird in kerosene and lighting it on fire. "You want to do this the hard way?" *Strikes match* "WE'LL DO THIS THE HARD WAY!"

In my experience, "Interesting" and "You'll see" are two of the most terrifying things a DM can say. The top example may be laughter, devoid of context or explanation.
a sadistic GM would proabbly follow that up by saying that phoenixes only get rebirth if they die naturally...
Act as though they don't know Philomena is intelligent and say in front of the phoenix that they're just going to kill the bird and pass off another bird as the 'cured' bird.
I've witnessed my players do this plan once... except with less "just going to" threat and more "Done did it" action. O_o
Also, Fluttershy is always super adorable
I can't even look at the third panel without being flattened by Fluttershy's cuteness.
So the bird doesn't know that the poniesknow the bird is a phoneix?
I'm confused
You iz smart

It means the ponies can troll the bird as the bird is trying to troll the Ponies.
FS: Alright, Philamena, I got some nice quality bird seed here for you.
TS: Fluttershy, what are you doing? Philamena's too old to have regular birdseed. You have to mush it into a paste.
FS: Oh, right. I keep forgetting that poor Philamena is so old and helpless.
TS: We'll also need to give her a bath, wrap her tightly in cloth for when she goes to sleep...what else? Oh, because she's going senile, we'll probably have to restate the same things to her over and over and over and over and-
*Philomena rebirths out of frustration*
TS: Told you it would work.
Oh my God. I hope my players never get that fucked up. I mean it's brilliant and I've gotten so many ideas for my next campaign from this in general but on sick Phoenix just got added to the list.
You could just do what Dumbledor does in HPMOR. Set the bloody chicken on fire.
Of course since it's a transfiguration you have to make sure you force-field it appropriately and probably take a but-load of other precautions...
Not worth the effort.

Congratulations to your father for his run, and commendations for the effort and care that must have gone into it for FOUR YEARS! The fact that someone who has already raised a child decided to take up writing a puntastic webcomic is SO cool to me, just amazing. Good luck to him and yourself in the future!
Awww. Kinda sad that QP is over. I'll miss it.
Also, one wonders if the players have watched or read Harry Potter and the Order of The Phionex.

I remember the first time you linked your dad's webcomic, I went and read a whole bunch of them. It was a very interest, funny and unique comic. Sad to hear it's coming down.
