*Poof!*

I came hither to spread the royal boopery. Behold, ye all, who hath hidden your snoots not!

*boops @Mirage77 @Holiday Agnaktor @Sparklefan1234 (twice accidentally) @Deae Rising Shine~ @BronyNumber42 @CypherHoof*

*as usual the rest of the Feathers of Boop rain around booping accidental ponies, who appear to get under the wave by mishap*

Huzzah! How many boop points do I receive?

Depends on if boop points are themselves boops I guess. Apparently the dangers of booping include Derpyization and Vaporization....

   Toot?

     I must attest, I am not completely cognizant of the Art of the Boop.

TOO MUCH INTENT, TOO MUCH INTENT

Now look at what you've done. I hope you are proud of your actions.

   That is basically me in a nutshell here.

    Just look at Lyra & Octavia! Booping out in the open for all to see! I blush at such brazen displays of booping!

[CypherHoof 26,479]

Checked carefully, and can't find any Tents, so I guess we are safe.

*boops @Widdershins, gives watery boops to @Duality, and boops @Hierok and @ShadowDash13 over in the Banned game...*

Banned for giving me boops. Also boops @Mirage77

You asked for it @GrimGrimoire! *nose honks you* >:3 

Also I give a little extra boop to @ThunderCrush! *boop* 

[ThunderCrush 1,850]

*boops* @Lucky Bolt  I will always get you back

[Holiday Agnaktor 1,435]

I have returned from my fencing club, so that I may hand out more boops.

*boops @The_Gobo, @Windchime (Ding), @CypherHoof, @Mirage77, and @Hierok*

Now that that is out of the way, I'd like to think about why boops are considered cute.

I have tried booping in real life, many times. On pets, on people, even on my bodypillow but it was never truly cute. Why wasn't it ever cute? Doesn't booping a cat sound like the cutest thing ever? Lightly pressing your finger against its little tiny nose, watching it react to the boop, one way or another. Instead, it just looks like you press a finger against a nose, nothing more, nothing less. 

WHY isn't it actually cute in real life? What actually causes boops to be cute?

Is it the action, and are we just not doing it right in real life? I don't think so, since there can't be much to booping. It's just a limp pressed against a nose.

Is it the shapes, and are humans just not cute or suited for booping? No, this isn't it either. Boops also happen in anime, using human characters, and there it's cute too.

Is it the reaction to the boop, and are we just not receiving boops correctly?

Absolutely.

You see, boops aren't about the boop itself. It's about the reaction to the boop, that smile, that grin, that blush, folded-back ears, closing of eyes, or whatever else happens. Imagine this picture above, but now Octavia just sits there stone-faced, not showing any emotion. See? That's immediately far less cute.

What makes boops cute, is the reaction. Booping a cat, and watching the cat grab its nose with its paws is adorable, but it not reacting at all, like it will probably do, isn't cute at all.

So there you have it folks, this is what makes boops cute. The reaction.

@Holiday Agnaktor 

You better react adorably next time I boop you irl then. But for now...

boop
