Spelling: zeebra (more tk depending on how I like it)
Some painful over explaining; most of Hanna's opening scene is maid-and-butler dialogue.
"The box was white with a detailed charcoal sketch of Fluttershy being cute." - no way. The box looks exactly like the show, because it's on store shelves and they have a strong visual brand.
"less likely than the probability of" is redundant.
ROFL (in a good way) at the scene between David and Celestia.
"brok"
"fillet mignon" should be "filet mignon" (also, that's not the right cut for stew).
Celestia is a bit repetitive with the "friendship and ponies" thing; she should only say it when her interlocutor is at least a bit confused.
"Ligth"
ROFL (again in a good way) at the badges.
"Space was a set of cells, each with eight neighboring cells," <-- do you really mean that equestria is 2d? Because cubes have 6 (or 26) neighbors and octahedra don't tessellate.
"mater"
"just frustrated that" should be "just frustrated enough that"
"up up down down" -cute
That was my first thought as well, but there are a variety of ways to make it work. Still, given that he only needs 6 possibilities when finding the block of ruby, I guess "6" was meant there.
I guess it could be 4d hypercubes, as well. Or hexagonal prisms. Or gyrobifastigiums.
Ooh, neat!
You are correct that I meant six there.
Hm, I think eight would have been more amusing.
They don't tesselate, nope. That's not a killer problem.
