poniesrfun 469 March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 no derpy isn't a mother at all , its just a made up fandom thing , just like cup cakes is , and cup cakes should of never been made up at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Coffee Pony 1,390 March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 (edited) She isn't, there's actually evidence in the show debunking it. If you look at the background events you'll see that she's actually Golden Harvest's daughter in canon. And before anyone calls foul on this because Golden Harvest is an Earth Pony, that can also be explained as Golden Harvest, in canon, is paired with a unicorn stallion called written script. Now unfortunately I can't find a way to link the actual images onto this site but if you look at Golden Harvest's MLP wiki entry you'll see the screenshots. http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Golden_Harvest Your fanon/headcanons have been debunked!

MysticShine 529 March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 Initially, I thought it was possible that Derpy could be Dinky's mother. Once I looked at Dinky again, I noticed that her coat is more of a purple rather than a gray. I guess the only reason I thought that before was because their coats looked to be the same color.

Shipping_Trash 38 March 6, 2015 Share March 6, 2015 I think Derpy as Dinky's aunt because I like imagining her as innocent and pure... not with kids. I think of Cloud Kicker and Ponet as her parents When the raindrops come tumbling, remember you're the only one who can fill the world with sunshine.-Snow White Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashen Pathfinder 16,162 March 9, 2015 Share March 9, 2015 I think people latch on to this particular bit of "fan lore" because they want to look at Derpy as a single mother who is making the best of her situation. Even though has a handicap of sorts and it can be difficult to raise a foal on your own even without that; I think people want to latch onto to a romantic of idea toughing it out for those you love. And with Derpy having a lot of fans I can see them putting that sort of character into her. I'm not the biggest fan of it myself, but I can see why it is popular.

Silver Letter 1,832 March 9, 2015 Share March 9, 2015 None of that nonsense is canon of course...for good reason. It's silly. The filly spoken of has no known name and of course has no relation to Derpy, which is too young to have children of her own...if she is capable of having them at all. I refuse to call the filly "Dinky" and refuse to suggest that she is in any way related to Derpy. They loon similer "Loon similer"? You mean, Look similar? And no, they don't in any reasonable stretch of the imagination have any similar characteristics. Silver Letter!!!

Pripyat Pony 2,608 March 9, 2015 Share March 9, 2015 I also don't see Derpy as being a mother. My own headcanon is that Dinky is Derpy's small cousin. That explains why they look similiar and yet why Dinky was at the Sisterhooves event with another pony. I think that Derpy looks too young to be a mother, as well. She's not irresponsible; she has that job as mailmare, remember? Just too young. Signature and avatar by Pucksterv. Want an Equestria Girls version, a pixel pony, or an Equalised version of your OC?

Spikey-Wikey 378 August 14, 2015 Share August 14, 2015 It makes no sense at all. Just because their colours are similar does not mean Dinky is the daughter. That's basically like saying that Pinkie Pie is cousins with Princess Cadance because their coats are similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeet 2,027 August 14, 2015 Share August 14, 2015 It doesn't matter if she is a pegasus and the little one is a unicorn. The cake ponies are both earth, and they have a pegasus and unicorn for twins. What's more concerning is why the fandom seem to pair them as a mum and daughter, yet don't give a dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyNamedEarl 1,332 August 14, 2015 Share August 14, 2015 Adopt? Well, I don't think that's true. I think Derpy and Dinky being family alongside Dr. Whooves probably originated from a fanfiction or something. But I'm still confused about Amethyst Star being Dinky's big sister. They were both at the Sisterhooves Social together. Did they adopt both of them ? While this is true that Amythyst Star competed with Derpy, let's not forget that Applejack competed with Sweetie Belle, so Amythyst could have been a sub like someone, just like Applejack was for Rarity (at least for the start of the race) Creator of MLP Ruined Vines and Recorder Sh*t Equestria's Biggest Hip-Hop Nerd Everyday is Leg Day!

Pastel 7,630 August 14, 2015 Share August 14, 2015 She isn't, it's just a headcanon, Dinky looks a bit like Derpy, that's all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poniesrfun 469 April 24, 2016 Share April 24, 2016 (edited) No derpy isn't a mother at all. Doctor hooves just took derpy under his care , thats all Edited April 24, 2016 by poniesrfun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadAccount 4,604 May 7, 2016 Share May 7, 2016 It is only because they look alike that some have to believe Dinky is Derpy's daughter. Meanwhile, that is not the case. I mean, it's like saying this filly here is my OC's daughter Sig by My OC:Aqualuna Sea Splash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmarston1 5,959 May 7, 2016 Share May 7, 2016 Because this fanbase has a strange fascination with giving background props that are only meant to fill out crowd scenes personalities and backstories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
