I'm going in

@Background Pony #8B45
These are individual creatures. With a powerful enough spell you can bring a painting to life and turn it into one of these creatures :D

I didn't know that equestria had a painted world.
Welp TALIHOE!!!

@Background Pony #9BFC
Unfortunately no. They have to keep like tethered to the frame :D

@Power-Up&Sky-Blue
Oh yeah, you can just leave whenever you want. Like, she has to physically try and keep you in there if she wants to stop you XD

@OneSpooky
Rest assured, she absolutely has a dump truck ass XD

@Background Pony #9BFC
Then they wouldn't be connected to their bodies (i.e, connected to the frame) anymore.

Wait…I thought she was bigger.
She had a dump trunk when she fell out "by accident" last time
Did she move portraits?

@Badumsquish
I was talking about her unwilling guests…

@Badumsquish
What if they chopped off bits of their tails and left them inside of the frames?

@Badumsquish
I mean, yeah, kind of, but he mostly just wanted to rescue Mario.
E. Gadd and King Boo were the biggest dicks in that game though.

Makes you think that Luigi was kind of a dick in that game. Most of those ghosts were just minding their own business, and it was THEIR house XD

@Power-Up&Sky-Blue
They can't completely leave the frame. At least one part of their body, tail included, has to remain in the frame :D

@Background Pony #6782
I can totally picture Spike saying to this ghostly lady, "You can't rape me if I consent. HA, GOTCHA!"

Then she'd say, "Works for me!"

@Background Pony #9BFC
She can't rape me if I consent!

@Background Pony #9BFC
I'll just ask her to tell me.

@Wayneponeth
But how could she be your wife if she doesn’t even have a name?

@Background Pony #9BFC
Then I guess she will be my wife because I don't have one.

@Wayneponeth
What if you had to get back to work or something? Better yet, what if you had a wife and family and this mare wanted to rape you and conceive your child?

@Power-Up&Sky-Blue
But why would you want to leave though? Free cute mare to snuggle with. :D

@Background Pony #6782
So my question is if Luigi snuggled the ghosts instead, would they be at peace? Alternatively, if Spike found a vacuum cleaner on the floor, could he use it?

@koschyy
Again, because they were captured, trapped within the Poltergust, unable to escape.

@Background Pony #6782

Luigi did nothing to “appease” them.

But they couldn’t do any more harm once they entered the dirtbag or whatever it’s called.

@Badumsquish
Okay, good to know.

@Background Pony #9BFC
Luigi did nothing to "appease" them. He captured them, then E. Gadd used his machine to force them back into their paintings.

@Power-Up&Sky-Blue
Given Badum said she has no more or less power than a typical Earth Mare, I'd assume you can leave whenever you want, as long as you can find your way out of her room.

Can anyone leave her frame on their own time, or do they need her permission first?

@Badumsquish
Then how come Luigi had to use a proton pack vacuum cleaner to appease the portrageists in “his” mansion?

@koschyy
@Background Pony #6782
It's like a vaguely defined arbitrary area in there. Four walls, a floor, and a roof. It wouldn't have killed her painter to paint her a background so she had a more interesting living space :P

@Background Pony #CE4B

@moonchosen
It's what makes them so tricky. They're not any more, or any less, powerful than a pony. She has all the abilities of an earth pony mare her size, no more no less. She's not all that much of a threat, and she'd probably struggle to keep even Spike in there against his will. It's why they're normally used for like spying or security or sounding alarms, since they're not exactly much of a threat. This one's just bored XD

@Background Pony #6782
That was beautiful.
