Zekromic 1,054 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 You read the synopsis of the upcoming episode Simple Ways? Rarity has a crush in a traveler, but said traveler is attracted to AJ. Heck, as if we didn't had enough with Flash Sentry uproar, the Faust visionaries will rage, because she didn't intended to make our ponies to any sort of romance. Oh well, time for popcorns, becuse those are always fun to read XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavelColt 22,878 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 When Rarity makes him her boyfriend, and he becomes a reoccurring character, then and only then, do people have my support in raging over relationships One-episode crushes are not 'a relationship', they're a plot device. So everyone shall have to wait and see. My money is on one-episode plot device. We all know Spike would kill this guy in his sleep if they made it official, anyway. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adente 1,000 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 Oh boo hoo to the Bronies who think Rarity is their "waifu" or Applejack swings the other way or whatever "headcanon" of theirs got shattered. As long as this episode is funny, I really don't care! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootalove 10,689 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 I think it's just going to be a plot device to make us wonder whether it is a relationship or not. This episode will be funny, so I don't exactly care with the relationship part. Credit: Moony © Forum FAQ Forum Rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, and more than likely that's how this will end up; a one episode thing similar to Rarity and Blueblood that will be brushed off as nothing at the end of the episode, rather than something that will be sticking around. There's no need to start panicking before we actually see what the conclusion of this episode is going to be like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moved to Elsewhere 11,331 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 You know I find it funny that they will rage over romance in the show when in season 1, Rarity had a crush on Prince Blueblood. So technically there has always been romance in the show. Even Spike's crush on Rarity can be considered one. Usually it's by people who honestly don't like romance in this stuff I'm okay with that it's their opinion. But it's also by the people who are like "Quit stealing my waifu." Or people who are like "This defies Faust's vision therefore the show is tainted." Besides, it will most likely be a one episode crush, a plot device. So they have almost no need to freak out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, you can't compare the whole Blueblood thing with the prospect of a permanent love interest; those are two entirely different things, as one is temporary and the other is not. And yeah, there's probably nothing to worry about here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReverseFaller 2,483 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 It'll be fine. It'll probably just be a one episode thing. He is just a traveler, after all right? Rarity will crush on him, he'll crush on Applejack, and Spike will get madly jealous of the said traveler due to Rarity liking him. It sounds like it'll be a decent episode if done right.

Barbaloot 198 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 Oh boo hoo to the Bronies who think Rarity is their "waifu" or Applejack swings the other way or whatever "headcanon" of theirs got shattered. As long as this episode is funny, I really don't care! Yeah, pretty much this. People need to somewhat understand that their fan-based view of something does not line up with how the show directors wish to go about things. But, as with anything, if that kind of thing does turn out bad regardless, then I'd still have a problem with it. I don't really care what they do with the show, but it has to be done well no matter what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dekutree64 713 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 Nah, I don't think it will be a big deal. The Flash Sentry rage was because he seemed like he was going to be a recurring character. A traveler will obviously continue to travel, and thus not cause any long-term problems. And personally, I'm hoping Spike will get really jealous, and Rarity will realize how much better he is than any of the other guys she's chased after He really hasn't been getting enough love this season.

Moonlight 7,286 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 I doubt the male character will become a reoccurring character, but even if he was...as long as he's interesting and not dull, I wouldn't mind. The people who will flip out over how their "waifu" got stolen or how it ruins their otp for the show, need to get over it. But, I will hold any and all judgement until I see the episode for myself. But, it's more than likely just going to be an one episode thing, so I wouldn't worry. 1 matching setups with my bff pathfinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Sejong 859 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 Well it the episode is handled with care then the rage could be dampened, personally I would like to wait and see what the reveal is, we have "Pinkie Pride" to go through before we get to "Simple Ways". Anyway, much ado about something, I have seen overreaction to plot elements and character arcs going back to season two, what most have deemed a fan favourite, so don't forget yourselves fans, just sit back and relax, and be mature about how the story is told, next we come back to the forums and leave our reviews and reactions, and comment about the strengths and weakness of the episode we just saw.

Riddle 102 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 So how is this eps any different than when a fan pairs their OC they made with one of the Mane Six? (Sig made by Me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discount_Flunky 75 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 I may be in the minority, but I wouldn't mind one of the main six getting a boy friend or a recurring crush. The problem I had with Sentry was that we was just thrown in there so they could have the generic high school romance cliche. A male character with actual depth coming and dating one of them wouldn't be that bad if they did it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null123456 759 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 This'll probably just be a one episode plot device. Besides, if it isn't then Fandom Rage is among us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixor 80 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 (edited) So how is this eps any different than when a fan pairs their OC they made with one of the Mane Six? A fanfic or fanart is just for fun and can be easily ignored by those who aren't fans. The show on the other hand portrays the 'canon', which is what almost everyone follows/acknowledges, and thus would be very difficult to ignore. On the other hand, I guess you could always construct your own personal alternate continuity or something else drastic, haha.

I mean i know "Canon" and stuff but we have not had many repeating males say outside Bulk or Mac or Soarin in truth but how i look at it: He is made for a story by writer(s) which with no background or setting is a OC made just for the show!

SS Patches 138 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 meh if there is a relationship with AJ or Rarity starting with this traveler then i hope it isn't a really cheesy thing that happens and the writers actually make it romantic and not just a thrown in scenario just because they were lazy and couldn't think of a good way to introduce him as a character because if that happens my favorite Mane 6 will have to change depending on what happens.

Moved to Elsewhere 11,331 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 I want to see in the episode a sub plot where Spike gets extremely jealous or sad that Rarity has a crush. I wanted to see that with Blueblood but that never happened. It would make the episode even more funnier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11th Doctor Whooves 794 January 23, 2014 Share January 23, 2014 I've never seen the point in raging over potential relationships anyways. When people freaked out over Flash I just sort of shook my head, and then we never saw him again, so the whole thing made even less sense. I think this is gonna be agreat episode, cause we get to see Rarity freak out over this guy liking a simple farmer pony over her Ask 11thDoctorWhooves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
