Thread for best filly.
>>27397212
>>27397212
>>27397278
I've been waiting for one of these for awhile now.
Does /mlp/ not like little apple horse?
>>27397323
Personally, I love her.
All three of the crusaders are terribly under-appreciated on here. This is better than nothing, though. I should try making threads, too, sometimes.
Her last song actually left me tear-eyed
>>27397212
I can't be the only one that would actually fuck applebloom if given the chance. I'm a fillyphile, I'll admit it.
>>27397506
Yeah, it was good. I was really excited to see she was finally getting a real solo song. Such an enjoyable episode until the ending scene. The thought of dancing becoming a recurring, big thing for her is concerning.
>>27397212
Would you a bloom?
>>27397830
You're certainly not alone, anon.
I'd personally fuck any pony if given the chance, filly or not.
bump for small apple horse
>>27397927
I'd like to emotionally bond with and marry her first.
One last bump before I go to bed, anons.
I hope this thread isn't archived when I wake up.
I really wish /mlp/ would appreciate these guys more
>>27399681
Me too. It's demoralizing, seeing one-shots and background characters get thorough discussion and appreciation every week while such a major and wonderful character as AB gets nothing.
So long as there's another fan of hers on this board, though, we can't give up and accept this injustice.
>>27397927
Would totally a bloom
>>27397212
>Applebloom starter thread pic
>>27397212
I like her, but I prefer her sister.
Hat>Bow
>>27397212
my god, you're right. we've got no sweetie belle thread!
>>27401668
why is she so thick?
>>27402008
she is thick, for the dick.
>>27402045
That's not even a pun. Stop trying to be funny. You're not funny.
>>27401651
>>27397571
id fuck any filly, cmc are highest on that list
Have any writefags made AB stories that don't degrade into pedofillia?
She and her husbando
OP here. Just woke up to see this isn't ded. That's amazing.
How far can we go though?
>>27402045
>she is thick, for the dick
dumb spicposter
>>27397830
I'll be honest, what I'm more afraid is that they will try to bring back that colt and use him for canon shipping/pairing.
>>27403183
I'm a little relieved that someone else said it. Yeah, that's the part of dancing that bothers me. The thought of her going to that class and being in contact with him as a regular thing from now on is severely discomforting.
I doubt they'd actually go through with full shipping, but I'd feel a lot better to have another episode or two for her without any sign of that.
>>27402994
Needs a cream filling edit
>shameless bump
>>27403183
>>27403298
What makes you think they'll have canon shipping for semi-main characters, when even showing Flash in an episode prompted backlash?
>>27403645
I don't think so, yet I'm slightly afraid of it, and hope they won't bring him back.
I just don't like colts interacting in a shipping worthy way.
>>27397212
Did you prefer her with or without her cutie mark?
>>27403876
I understand why most would say 'without', but prefer her with her mark.
It's so special and important to her, and makes her happy, so I never think "I wish someone would remove the cutie mark from this art". I've warmed up to the colors.
It also makes me feel a little less weird about it and more close to her, seeing her growing up and having more mature, serious thoughts. She's still an adorable filly, but feels a little more mature and relateable than before, I think.
>>27403876
i wouldn't mind it if it wasn't looking so terrible
>>27401663
they're both cute though
>>27404059
>Seeing her growing up and having more mature, serious thoughts.
Speaking of which, I've noticed that her average humanised age on derpibooru increases when you go from oldest to newest.
>>27404883

You wake up and see applebloom at your door.

What are you guys gonna do on the bed, anon?
>>27406092

>>27406178
Why wouldn't you consent to whatever she wants to do to you?
>>27406196
that'd be cool too

>>27407553

>>27397212
Can't we get some writefags to make some fresh greens?
You should totally make this a weekly thread btw
>>27407723
OP here, that'd be really fuckin' cool if I could make that happen. But I'd like to see this grow more before something like that happens.
I'm headed to bed though, keep this thread alive for me apple fags
>>27407311
>>27402447
I assume the lack of replies means there isn't...
>>27409430
Sorry. I didn't remember anything on here that did her justice, but I just found this.
>>27409454
This story ;~;
I adore this particular small pony more than anything.
>>27411555
You can say that again
>>27410055
What's with the neck-tie?
>>27412359
Wearing it is her punishment for being rebellious. It's humiliating.
>>27407855
Stay alive and I'll drop some green off tomorrow
>>27412470
I originally didn't think this thread would survive, but after seeing all these guys contribute and bump this thread, hope has been restored. Thanks for the upcoming greens.
>>27413181
I like this guy
>bump
Remember that with a new episode airing tomorrow, we'll need to keep a closer eye on the thread to keep it up.
>>27416849
As much as I wish to keep this going up, sleep is falling upon me.
Uphold it while I'm gone, anons!

>After all, you certainly didn’t want to go to some orchard in the middle of nowheresville

>”Don’t just run off without saying goodbye to your mother.”
>You turn towards her with a venomous glance
>Appearances were always so important to your mother; the image of the perfect family being the totality of her goals
>However, she did hold the key to your trust-fund, and wasn’t afraid to hold it ransom
>Fear of poverty and vitriol were unable to come to peace, and you ended up saying

>>27417930

>Ah, your father
>He had long upheld the tradition of being absent, but only recently begun shedding the tradition of explaining why
>Reports of meetings, traffic, sickness, work, and so forth had been substituted for your father’s presence until you had lost your desire for it
>Your mother looks at her watch, a genuine expression crossing her face for once
>In horror, she exclaims
>“Oh dear! I’m going to be late for my banquet!”
> and without another word to you, she turns abruptly and waddles out to her car
>Your turn, always eager to part ways with any experience with your mother
>At least there’s one positive side to leaving Manhattan
>The conductor is staring at you, impatiently tapping his foot while he waits for your ticket
>You slap your ticket in his hands, looking at him with the disdain you’d be taught to have at a young age

>The ride is uneventful
>You sleep most of the way, play video games for the rest
>Hearing the driver announce Ponyville as the next stop, you begin packing your things
>Half awake, you drag your bag to the doors, and wait for the bus to stop
>That familiar, harpy-esque screeching returns once more, as if the bus aimed to grant you one more gift to remember it by
>You grimace, and ignore it until the bus lurches to a stop, almost tipping you over
>The door opens, and golden light fills the entryway
>You take a step outward into the folksy little station, your mouth curling upward at the dead station in front of you
>You had come from a living world, buildings and stations thriving and bustling with people
>Here, in this sparsely populated little town, was just a few old folks, looking bored as they waited to die
>Among the few people, you spotted a group you presumed to be your own
>A tall, dark skinned man with a great brown backpack hugging his shoulders, golden hair stuck out in all directions
>Next to him, a small girl, no older than fourteen or fifteen, whose most distinguishing feature was the massive red bow on her head
>She held a great white sign, with black marker spelling out “Anon Orange,” and was hopping up and down
>>27418027
>Uh
>Wow
>She’s looking around frantically, as if she couldn’t find her target
>There was only one other person exiting the bus, an old Mexican lady
>Clearly her powers of deduction were sub-par
>The man with her had been looking at you since you got here, making up for her
>You stick your hand and wave it in the air, just so the girl would stop whisking her head back in forth
>She spots your signal, and drops the sign as she sprints towards you
>You don’t have time to process just what’s happening until you feel her small body colliding with your very tired self
>You stagger backwards, losing three steps before gaining your balance
>As you straighten yourself up, you feel two thin arms squeezing you with a strength they have no right to
>You look down at the constrictor, and the bow brushes your chin as she leans her head back
>A pair of golden eyes, holding shades of light red to orange, meet yours, and a big, white-toothed smile opens to say
> “Welcome to Ponyville, Anon!”
>If the attempted tackle hadn’t shocked you out of your drowsy state, the sheer volume sure did
“Uh, sure, alright”
> you respond, a pained expression join forces with pushing arms in an attempt to force off this invader
>Neither succeed, although she does loosen one arm to point to the dark man, who’d appeared soundlessly in front of you
>”I’m Apple Bloom!, an this here’s Big Mac!”
>He nods at that, his eyes directed towards you, with an expression either serious or vacant
>>27418072
and that's what I got for tonight. I'll try to keep at least four posts going per day, and feel free to add any advice or thoughts along the way!Sleep tight, sweet soldiers.
>>27418082
Thanks! It sure looks promising. I'm excited.
>>27418082
But you already said goodnight to me 2 hours ago, its okay though im actually going to sleep now. Seems i'm going to be reading alot of your stuff now.love you

Have there been attempts to use the mane6 filly designs to work out what the CMC would look like grow up?
>>27419711
It's certainly an interesting thought, but I don't remember anything like that. I just hope she keeps the big bow.
>>27418082
OP here, your story sounds great so far, keep up the good work!
>page 8
I wonder how long it took her to draw all this out.
To have her idea shot down immediately after all that must hurt at least a little.
>>27425127
I'd probably cry if the same happened to me
>>27425150
>Finally, she drops off you and takes a few steps back, continuing her wide grin
>You take a deep breath, never having missed air before this moment
>After a few wheezes, you’re situated again

> Apple Bloom asks you, her head cocked to one side
>Man, what is this little girl’s deal?
“Yeah yeah, I’m fine,”
> you mutter, trying to cut off any connection with this overenthusiastic kid before it starts
>Big Mac’s got his left eyebrow raised slightly, proving that he is not, in fact, a statue
>”C’mon”
>His deep voice matches his dark, heavy look
>You don’t have a lot of time to consider it, what with him turning on his heel and moving away
>He moves purposefully, neither hurrying nor strolling
>Apple Bloom perks up at the sound of his heels on the hard stone floor, and jumps towards him, each motion of her legs closer to a bound than an actual step
>You bring out your trademark grimace as you mournfully try to match their quick pace
>Though Apple Bloom’s chokehold woke your mind up, your body is still trying to sleep
>That, along with your heavy bags, marks the attempt to keep up as impossible, which you’re sure will define this next week
>Ugh
>>27418903
I'll keep it going for a while.

>You’re halfway to the door when the two Apples reach it, looking back to see you
> heaving, dragging your luggage behind you
>You glare at them, furious at their desertion of you
>Big Mac huffs, then leans back against the wall, patiently waiting for you to catch up
>Apple Bloom, however, speeds towards you at a similar pace as before
>You shut your eyes and brace yourself, hoping not to be flung to the ground this time
>Instead, your feel nothing but a slight weightless on your arms as two bags are lifted from you
>Her dazzling smile expectantly waits for you to open your eyes, and greets you as you do so
>Her high voice, thick with the accent of this town, pips up once more
>”I got em, Anon! Don’t you worry!
>She turns to her older brother, unmoved: “
>”I got it, Big Mac! Don’t you worry!”
>He nods his head, not worrying
>With the extra weight lifted, you manage to shamble slightly faster, and manage to greet the patient farmer at the door
>He opens the door for you, letting you stumble past him, a bounding bow in close pursuit
>A tattered old truck sitting in the center of the mostly vacant parking lot, which you assume is your destination
>Along the way, your eager cousin, unable to contain her no-doubt illimitable energy, she charges forward to the truck
>She tosses the bags into the bed, and, seeing that the two slower member of this party are only 3/4s of the way there, she jumps up on the side and begins kicking her legs and whistling
>You turn to Big Mac, asking
“Is she always like this?”
>Big Mac looks towards you, a slight glare encouraging you to shut up
>You gracefully comply
>>27425528
>You toss your bags in the back, and walk to the passenger’s side
>Absent-mindedly, you open it and get in, shutting the door behind you
>You forget that there are three passengers, only to be reminded of the matter when Apple Bloom opens it and pushes to into the middle seat
>You find yourself squeezed between the two Apples, the cabin being intimately tiny
>This couldn’t get worse, you think, silently sulking
>Things get worse immediately when Apple Bloom reaches past you and turns on the radio
>”Go get it out boy! Say I’m the only one that makes you this crazy!”
>Oh no, please no, no country please
>Apple Bloom jumps a little bit in excitement when she hears the sound, and chimes in with her high-pitched voice
>”Come on, tell me how boy! How I’m the only thing you’re thinkin ‘bout lately!”
>Your iPhone’s in your pocket, along with earbuds
>You try to reach them, each new verse increasing the frantic attempts to access your pockets
>You can’t get into them, due to the close quarters of the truck
>However, as a blessing in disguise, Apple Bloom stops when she notices your hand working its way between your thigh and hers, which have been pressed together
>The blessing doesn’t last long:
>”Anon, why are ya touching my leg like that?”
> she asks innocently, while Big Mac whips his face you-wards, his furious eyes burning a whole in your head
>>27425731
“I was looking for my headphones! I was trying to get into my pocket!”
> comes your panicked cry
>You may not be from around here, but you know not to cross the silent, strong types
>You scootch closer to him, trying to increase the visibility of the situation, which you point at
“See! There’s like, no way I couldn’t touch her leg!”
>He glares at you even harder, while Apple Bloom just looks at the both of you questioningly
>Then, miraculously, he pulls back and lets out a soft chuckle
>”I know. Real tight in here.”
>You exhale most of your terror and move back over, your life spared for the moment
>The rest of the ride passes with silence form you and Big Mac, and unending crooning from the littlest farmer
>The scrappy little truck pulls up to a giant barn, followed by Big Mac turning it off
>This causes the radio to stop, along with the chipper sing-along; you’d be raising your hands in the air with the biggest cheer if there were room
>Your cousins hop out of the car, and your sides feel like they expand, free from their imposing bodies
>You follow them out, only to be greeted by the most horrifying of gargoyles
>Green-tinged skin, wispy white hair, and a gnarled hand… that’s coming right for you!
>You instinctively take a step back, narrowly avoiding the grossest hand pat in the world
>”Well howdy there, Anon!”
>The old lady creaks, her hand receding to its previous place by her side
>”Boy, I haven’t seen you since you were this tall,” she exclaims, holding up her hands to show about a foot in length

>This must be Granny
>You’d hoped she was the kind of old person that sat in their room and wouldn’t communicate unless it was to instruct you to turn that racket down
>Because old people, as scientists have proven, are way super icky
>True to your beliefs, your own great aunt was threatening you with her affections, the withered hands ready to spring on and ravage your cheeks with pinches
>With a truly forced smile, more of a grimace, you nod along as she recites some pointless family story
>Apple Bloom had been awestruck by it holding onto every word, whereas Big Mac was looking at you out of the corner of his eye
>In all your pretending you listen, you didn’t hear her tell you that they were going down to somebody’s house to pick up AJ
>If you’d been listening, you’d know that she was just finishing up band practice, and needed a ride
>She had asked if you wanted to come, and said that if not, you could just stay home and unpack
>You, hearing only the tone, and recognizing it as a question, responded with an over-exuberant yes
>She smiled wide, showing off every one of her snaggly teeth, and began marching down to the truck
>She opens the door for you, and a pit opens up in your stomach
>Instead of climbing in, she just smiles there, barely moving
>Apple Bloom had charged in, eager to ride next to you again, but Granny pulled her back out with some terrifying secret strength, reminding her that there wasn’t much space
>This ride managed to be even worse than the ride up here, merely through the awkwardness of riding with Big Mac, who didn’t say a word
>>27448571
>You arrive at some weird-looking house that’s all shimmery, as if it were made out of crystals or glass or something
>It’s standing alone, almost in the middle of the street, like a one-house cul-de-sac, with other houses forming a perimeter around the street leading up to it
>You hop out of the truck once Big Mac brings it to a halt, and look up at it
>If the sun weren’t directly in your eye, you may have gotten a better look instead of a piercing pain
>>Shutting your eyes and looking down, the sound of a car door slamming informs you of Big Mac’s exit
>Without the distraction of the titanic house, your ears pick up a faint rumbling, or something like that
>Hard to put a word to it, especially with it being so faint
>Blurry eyed from the ray of sun, you follow the hazy form of Big Mac as he ascends the steps and
> enters without even knocking
>Come on man, have some manners
>The open door no longer blocking the sounds from inside, you can clearly hear the frenetic clamor of a garage band
>You wipe your feet on the welcome mat and follow Big Mac down a series of halls and stairs, each heralding greater volume as you close the distance
>He opens the final door, and you’re met with a cascade of noise and teenage girls jumping about
>>27448721
>Big Mac finds a seat near the door and sits, hands in his lap
>Already tired from the train ride and the family, you sit down sullenly beside him, not at all happy to listen to this
>It’s not that bad, as you happen to notice through your burgeoning headache
>You’re just a bit too exhausted for this now
>Your head falls into your hands, and stays there through the end
>As the music crashes to a close, a voice tells everyone that that was almost as awesome as its owner
>Some more clamor, this time with voices, some crashing of instruments, and then a pat on your shoulder
>Your head transports itself to your left hand, your left elbow supporting itself on your knee, and you mumble a concise
“Euuugh... sup?”
>A smiling girl, bending over so that she’s eye level, asks you how you were doing
>The cowboy hat on her head tells you that this is your cousin Applejack
>”You’re Anon, aren’tcha?”

“Yes, that would be me”
>”Well it’s a pleasure to meet ya! I’m Applejack!
>”Didn’t much expect you to be here at band practice, but I cain’t say I’m unhappy about it!”
>She beckons the girls over to you, and your spirits rise as a torrent of cute girls assemble before you
>A litany of odd-sounded names match the odd-looking girls, and you smile your biggest at each of them
>Maybe something good can come from this trip after all
>Your meetings seem to go adequately, with the pick-haired one offering you a more radiant smile than the rest
>>27448883
>A brief round of goodbyes pass, and you’re back to the truck, an extra member tagging along
>A phone number marks itself as the singular piece of luck you’ve scraped up in this unfortunate trip
>Applejack sits close next to you, making you feel a bit uncomfortable in a different way than the others
>Apple Bloom had been too spritely, Big Mac too imposing, Granny too old
>But Applejack was nice to you, flashing a gorgeous smile constantly, her light laughter filling your eyes as she told hilarious stories about her bandmates
>She had this strange combination of girliness, like that of that pink girl, while being distinctly grounded, or down-to-earth
>You were liking her a little too much, considering her being related to you
>It wasn’t a full on crush, nothing like that
>Just a bit of affection you weren’t too overjoyed to entertain
>And so it was that you mimicked Big Mac, and silently wandered off inside your own head
>The truck stopped, and you slide out of the car, Applejack in short pursuit
>”Here, lemme help you find your room.”
>You thank her, and look into the bed of the truck
>Your shit!
“My shit!”
>Applejack looked almost as shocked at your wording as you were at the disappearance of your luggage
>Your eyes darted over to Big Mac, as you worriedly asked
“Where’s my stuff?”
>”They got it,” came his typically short reply, as he pointed towards the house
>You breathed a sigh of relief, and began the march up to the house

>”Ah get that that’s what they do back up in the city, but that ain’t how we do things here.”
>Oh man, was she serious, you say to yourself, keeping yourself from laughing but not smirking
>She continues looking at you with those uncomfortably cold eyes
>Huh
>Guess she was
>You nod, and toss out a meek promise not to ever do it again
>Though you can tell she doesn’t completely buy it, she seems somewhat satisfied by the words
>You make it into your house, and almost start off to your room before remembering you don’t know where your room is
“Hey, where’s my room?”
>”Anoooooon!”
> comes a small, chipper voice
>Oh geez, it’s friggin Apple Bloom again
>The small, sunburnt body of the smallest Apple comes stomping across the banister above you
>She runs hallway down the stairs, grips the railings, and vaults to the bottom with a loud “Oof!” and a frightening stomp
>”Apple Bloom!”
> her elder sister chides,
>”Ah told you not to be jumping down those stairs! You could hurt yourself or someone else!”
>Apple Bloom might have heeded the advice, but in her temporary shame, she looked away and saw a suppressed smile on your face
>It was a pretty cool jump, after all; AJ had almost jumped in the air
>>27455927
>Your approval accidently given, Apple Bloom shook off the look of embarrassment
>She nodded obediently to AJ, but it was clear her heart wasn’t in it
>AJ begins to lead you upstairs, but Apple Bloom chokes out a quick “wait!”
>She cuts herself off abruptly once AJ turns to look at her
>She looks at her older sister, her eyes widening to an absurd, heart-melting degree
>Her small hands reach up to her mouth, making a prayer-like gesture
>”Pleeeease, please please please-” she whines, adding another plea to the mysterious wish
>Her older sister glances from her to you, then back at her
>A comic smile crosses her lips, and she nods her assent before turning back to you
>”Apple Bloom asked if she could help you unpack
>”Would you be alright with that?”
>you shrug your shoulders, not really caring for the idea, but ready to accept help with your luggage
>Apple Bloom jumps in the air, and grabs the bag you’d lain at your feet, then rushes upstairs
>More awake now, you move up the stairs at a greater pace than your typical saunter
>A wide, vacant hallway greets you, with no trace of Apple Bloom
>Her sweet voice calls out from one of the bedrooms
> “Ahnon! Ah’m in here!”
>You follow the voice into the room furthest back and to the right
>Oh good heavens
>>27455939
>Apples
>Apples everywhere
>Apple rug set over a soft red and green floor
>Apple drapes and apple wallpaper
>Apple blankets and sheets on the bed with apples carved into it
>Apple girl lying on the bed, your non-apple possessions strewn about
>If there was ever an apple-obsessed serial killer, this is what their house would look like
>You walk over to the bed, still trying to take in all the apples
>Your littlest cousin sets down the shirt she was refolding and scooted over to you
>”Anon, Ah’m real glad you’re here”
>The girl’s exuberance had been slowly turning from annoying to perplexing, impelling you to ask
“Why?”
>”Well,”
> she starts off, matter-of-factly, before lying down on her bad and tracing apples on your blankets,
>”This place can get kind of boring.”
>Not trusting your ability to respond without sarcasm, you lift your eyebrows
>”Ah know, it doesn’t seem like it,” she explains, buying your ruse of surprise,
>”but there’s just not that much to do!”
>She sits straight up, her frustrated pout threatening to melt your heart
>”And the worst part is, the only thing anyone around her wants to talk about, or do stuff with, is apples!”
>She stand up on the bed and begins acting out caricatures of her kin

that is profoundly weird shading. also what's going on? why's she blushing? because her new cutie mark sucks?
>>27454064
>she's chatting with anons about what dares they'll give her to do to her friends
>>27456121
>”Come on nhow, sis,” she says with her chin thrust forward and her hands on her hips,
>“We ahll gotta work together. That’s what being a family’s all about! That’s why you can’t keep blowing up parts of the barn with your friends crazy experiments!”
>You tilt your head and widen your eyes in confusion, but she moves ever onwards
>She hunches over, closing her eyes and waving a shaking finger in front of her
>”Now now, little Apple Bloom, back in my day, we never wore awesome clothes or when tree-surfing”
> her voice, now creaky and labored, groans
>”We only wore lame clothes and married whoever our parents wanted us to”
>She straightens up, pushing her mouth downwards to make a morose, bored-looking face
>Then she just looks at you for a few seconds with blank eyes, followed by a
>”Eeyup,” in her deepest voice
>Which of course is not even close to deep
>Then her legs collapse under her, and she falls on her behind, sighing deeply
>You feel like you oughtta be defending her family or something
>That’s what you were taught to do
“Apple Bloom, that’s wrong,”
> you say, looking sternly at her
>In the face of her disappointment and regret, you tell her
“It’s more like this:
>You open your jaw and let it hang, and soften and unfocus your eyes as you look at her but appear as if looking through her
“Eeeyup,”
> you drawl, emphasizing each syllable by tilting your head down, then up
>And your little cousin bursts out laughing beside you

the one thing this show doesn't quite do with its lovely young pones is capture the adorably skinny look of fillies, which adolescent humans can also have
this story is painting a skinny-legged picture in my head. knobby knees and all. vellus hair glowing in the sunlight.
>>27456768
