I accidentally referred to Rainbow Dash as "he" when creating a TV Tropes page about the 'What Rainbows Are Made Of' fanfiction; does that count?

Shucks! And here I was thinking it was about the Orange family in Manehattan.

1) Why Princess Celestia is not a Queen? Who are the Queen and King!? In ancient Rome, the people deposed a tyrannical king; since then, "king" was all but a dirty word. Even after the emperors' rule became increasingly autocratic, they (at least formally) kept the republican institutions. I've had a theory that the reason why Celestia was a princess rather than a queen was similar: perhaps at some point the ponies deposed an evil king (perhaps king Sombra himself), and since then, Equestria did not have a king. (Of course, since then the 'Journal of the Two Sisters' came out, which complicates the things.) 8) How was Equestria made!? "And Princess Lauren said: Let there be ponies. And there were ponies." On the other hoof, perhaps it was Princess Bonnie who created the ponies, while Princess Lauren was the creator of Equestria. 9) Celestia and Luna's parents!? Princess Lauren and Prince Craig?

Charity Sweetmint (Rarity's apprentice from G.M.Berrow's chapter book) has a cutie mark of three heart-shaped gems; she likes diving and bucking apples (and unlike Rarity, she isn't very good at locating gems).

Princess Lauren Faust, of course. :-)

You might be a brony if you interpret an unrelated comment in a show you watch as a pony reference (e.g. in a Star Trek episode, when a native on a planet says that their people used to believe in beings that "made the rains come, told the sun when to rise ...")
