Clare and I were playing Bookworm Adventures 1; the list of best-words-ever from she and Heather and me [1] is mostly 10-letter words, with one or two 11-letter words.

If you aren't familiar with the game, you assemble words from a grid of 16 letters, with all the letters you didn't use on the last word hanging around for the next word, so all the Ks and Xs have to get used up at some point, giving a bit of ongoing strategy beyond "longest word possible". (Some letters get special effects, too, which has a similar effect.)

As such, we were quite pleased to play, as two successive words, RESUPINATE and BRUTALISED. If pushed I would admit that was mostly down to Clare.

[1] And a "Twilight Sparkle" who is mysteriously on the high-score list for some unknown reason. How she uses a computer with her hooves is beyond me.

Telekinesis is magic.

That makes sense, actually, since she uses telekinesis for everything.

A hoof-adapted pointing device and a copy of dasher.

I think [personal profile] morwen has hit it, actually, given the routine use of telekinesis amongst unicorn ponies.

This is perhaps quite a delayed reply, but we have since seen A.K. Yearling's pony keyboard; two large round keys. Presumably she types in something like Morse.
