I feel if we got even a glimpse of Fluttershy's family, no matter what they're like, so much would fall into place.

Don't feel too bad Spike...they left out Harshie too (But included Dinky.) :-/

Spike is the new Scootabuse.... :fluttersmith:


Makes me appreciate moments like this more.

My guess would be that Fluttershy's family is very loudmouthed and large. It seems to be a trend that pony relatives have opposite personalities than the ponies. (Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie.)

Actually that just makes it worse, IMO. Why does a character who gets significant episodes get looked over in favor of really insignificant characters?

Then again I don't even know where that list is from.

Yeah, I'd be kind of suspicious when Hasbro uses Sweetie Drops instead of Bon Bon. :squintyjack:

I tend to go the other way and imagine the whole family as unbelievably, impossibly shy. Fluts is the brash one. She's had to struggle for every shred of assertiveness she possesses, because she had no role models for it at home.

Family gatherings are very, very quiet.

So Rainbow Blaze is a "Friend" and a "Mentor"? I wonder if they're hinting that he's not Rainbow Dad after all.

They're listed as "Friend", but "Hondo Flanks" is listed as "Big Daddy." :wat:

On the other hand, "Cookie Crumbles" is listed as "Fancy Cooker."

Also, if Rainbow Blaze really is Rainbow Dad, I'm very curious how surnames work in ponyland.

Maybe that the Rainbow Family all share a common first name. Plus, I'd love to see more Rainbow Dad if he's anything like these posts.

Cookie Crumbles is referred to as a friend, yes, and just a unicorn. I don't have the dad card though.

It might be, but Sweetie Belle's room looks exactly the same in both episodes (not that I'm suggesting copy/paste or anything, she obviously just likes her room that way :ohboy:), so I think that this is probably the permanent residence.

Is she smaller in that picture than normal? I thought Luna would be taller next to the CMC. Know she's smaller than Celestia, but taller than everyone else.

You're right. The scale is off, no way is she just twice as tall as Sweetie Belle.

Buuuut.... Dream Princess Luna presumably adjusts her size to be less intimidating to her subjects. Yeah, that's the ticket. :twiright:

She was gathering energy after being banished for so long. She was embarrassed to show herself in public until her star mane returned.

That and I tend to think she spent every spare moment of Celestia's free time catching up with her sister.
