Clover Heart

Alicorn. Best of both worlds. ...Sorry, earth ponies... Having to choose only one, I'd go with a unicorn, though. I don't fancy putting non-edible things in my mouth, so writing would suck if I couldn't be a unicorn. Also, for more powerful unicorns, I'm sure they could teach themselves to fly without wings. Probably wouldn't be as fast, but still, flying's flying. It just seems like life would be really inconvenient being a pony would can't utilize magic.

I thought we could bring up and discuss any inconsistencies we find in the show. I don't mean this in a way that's knocking the show, and pointing out flaws, but rather, I'm interested in these kinds of things. Secrets, goofs, glitches, all that stuff. And I thought other ponies might be, too. If you find talk like this too picky, though, you're under no obligation to reply. I look forward to things you all have noticed A few that I noticed recently: Scootaloo can't fly yet, and yet, Pound Cake (Mr. and Mrs. Cake's son) can. I realize that two foals may be developmentally different, as children are. However, this seemed like a huge age gap. We don't know Scootaloo's age, but I think it's safe to presume that compared to humans, she's elementary-school-aged, putting her at 7-12 years old. Pound Cake, on the other hand, we first see flying all over the place as young as a month old. That means that their age difference is new born to, at least, 7 years old, which are leaps and bounds away from each other, developmentally speaking. We might not know how pegasi grow, but it would seem logical, for any species, that the older ones have more ability than the younger ones. In the episode "Call of the Cutie" (S01E12,) Apple Bloom is one of the only foals in her class not to have a cutie mark. Toward the end of the episode, she meets Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo for the first time. However, we see in later episodes (such as Hearts and Hooves Day (S02E17) and Ponyville Confidential (S02E23)) that all three go to the same school. I suppose it could be argued that Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo went to different schools before then, but all three seem to live in Ponyville and knew Diamond Tiara before her party. Ponyville is kind of a small town, and doesn't seem to have more than one school, and as a native Ponyvillian, it would seem unlikely that they didn't live in Ponyville before meeting Apple Bloom. Also, it seems very unclear where Sweetie Belle lives. The only time it seems explicitly implied is in the episode "Sisterhooves Social" (S02E05,) where Rarity is made to take care of Sweetie Belle by her parents, implying that she isn't Sweetie Belle's primary guardian/care-taker. However, we see implications that she may live with Rarity, as seen in "Ponyville Confidential" (S02E23) where Sweetie Belle leaves her saddlebag on the floor at Rarity's boutique, and also is seen spending time in a room that seems to be hers, or at least, designated for her use.

They might have scheduled the clouds to be there for the time being, but then, for Celestia's arrival, wanted a nice clear day for her.

Personally, I find it much more offensive that when presented with a cartoon character who's klutzy, googly-eyed and has a goofy voice that the first place people go to is "mentally retarded." Does anyone else feel like that? As for the voice itself, it's not suited to her character, especially since we've all heard the real thing. The original voice just fit so much more, and made her come across as more innocent. One could just as easily make the argument that the new voice perpetuates the dumb blonde stereotype. But you won't hear people complaining about that, will you?

I think it's important to note that Applejack mentions that they need the cider sales in order to have money through the winter. If they were to share their profit and apples 50/50, they'd be run out of business. In fact, it seems like Sweet Apple Acres is always in some financial trouble, so it's possible that if they shared any of their profit, business or sales that they could go out of business, and not be able to support the farm. Anyway, Flim and Flam's intent was not to share with the Apples. It was to run them out of business. So if they'd conceded at all, they might have been swindled or taken over by the Flim Flam Brothers.

I've never really cared much for the Mayor, Prince Blueblood, Trixie or really, any of the foals that aren't a part of the CMC. But, I can't really say anyone from the mane 6. Though there may be some I like more than others, I feel bad saying one is my "least favorite," because I like them all so much. So, since the poll won't let me vote without answering that question, I opt out of voting.

I can't say I'd want one, but if it happened, I'd watch it, just to see how it is.

MLP and Princess Debut, which is a game for the DS, for those of you who don't know. Strange, I know, but I was just thinking the other day that there's someone for everyone. Fluttershy and Liam; Rarity and Cesar; Twilight and Kiefer; Pinkie Pie and Vincent; Rainbow Dash and Luciano; and Applejack and Klaus. It just works out so perfectly. And as for the princess... hm... well, no need for her. We can lock her in the broom closet 'til we're done. *is weird* Nice, but I vote for Rarity being Miss Scarlet.

Actually, two of the most popular ships are Fluttershy x Big Macintosh and Spike x Rarity. Also, you have to consider the ratio of male to female characters in the show. I don't know exact numbers, but I'd be willing to bet there are at least 4 females for every male? And especially when you consider the very main characters, Spike's really the only male character. So it's really no wonder why they all get paired together.
