_“We can stop this anytime, Parchment, all ya gotta do for me is be honest. Now, exactly how many copies of that novel carryin’ my name did you print?“

“MMMFPHMMM!! MMHM!!“

“Come on now, if you don’t start speakin’ coherently I’m just gonna have’ta help you keep breathin’, until you wanna spit it out…“

“MMMFPHMMHH!!!”_

Well, seems as though Parchment’s finally been caught by AJ, and the farmpony’s decided to inquire about a certain novel he’d written and published… in a certain manner of speaking, anyways. Seems like she’s not getting anywhere fast though, Parchment is just refusing to say a peep. You’d think a pony couldn’t talk if their mouth’s full of rubber hose held in place by duct tape…

Ah well, keep workin’ those bellows AJ, I’m sure he’ll start singing soon enough!
