A rainbow.

a turtle she cares for lovingly, but keeps secret from her friends

she tells everyone she has an awesome super fast eagle

A rainbow with wings made of rainbows.

>then I better not be posting today comic >.>
Do it anyway

Repostan for the metal bronies that may have missed it.

a frakkking phoenix!

>>24797888
It's so mind-meltingly good. Also, any reason why were ditching the other thread? It's still got some life in it.

>>24797888
And what exactly is this? I don't like downloading shit solely on the word of somepony else, and I'd like to have a preview or at least a warning of some kind... Pwetty pwease?

>>24797771

A hedgehog

>implying Pinkie Pie isn't her pet.

Her pet is so cool that it has it's own pet.

>>24797901
Now that's what I'm talking about!

>>24797943
Between the Buried and Me. They're really fucking good. I promise.

>>24797888
Sound cool anon.

A turtle....with rainbows painted on its shell?

well Twilight has a dragon

that'll be ahrd to top

>>24797943
Amazing progressive metal.

There needs to be an episode where rainbow dash realizes she needs a pet and tries out all sorts of different ones. It turns out she's way to awesome for all of them. Then she ends up with a Roc.

>>24797888
So yeah... Got trips and another poem.

This is the tale of Pinkie Pie,
A pony full of life and energy.
And below is a list of reasons why
Her life is like one big party.

Pinkie will sing at the drop of a hat;
A more vocal pony, you'll never meet.
Her musical numbers are where it's at.
When it comes to singing she can't be beat.

Her parties are the stuff legends are made of,
Since everyone has the time of their life
Save Gilda, who, despite your undying love,
Will never be Rainbow Dash's wife.

She's even an aspiring baker,
Should the party business ever tank.
Although her recipes are a tad stranger,
Like baked bads or cupcakes that taste of blank flanks...

We can all agree it's become a rite of passage in this fandom
To have at least once said, "Pinkie Pie, you so random!"

0u0

>>24798009
no, she ends up with a turtle
>>24797875

>>24798016
And this one I did last night with some touch-ups today.

Her beauty can take your breath away,
Her eyes a relfection of the sky so blue,
Her perfect mane with not a single fray.
And her coat a soft, winter-white hue.

The ease with which she manuvers a thread
And needle to create wondrous works of art,
Like a dress colored a bright, velvety red,
Made with loving care straight from the heart.

Her love for rare gems knows no bounds,
Braving huge dragons to acquire them,
And even dealing with unsavory hounds
To get every last gleaming, gorgeous gem.

Her sophistication has no match;
She is a class above the rest.
Her charm is an easy bug to catch,
Just like her accent from the Midwest.

There is only one name that comes to me
For such perfection, and that name... is Rarity.

>mfw this thread

>>24798006
Spike's considered a pet?
Feels wrong calling him one.

>>24798009
She ends up with a rock...of crack. That's right, she's so hard core that the only pet she adopts is a drug addiction.

>>24798066

>>24797875

the turtle from Loony Toons, the one that has that jet engine on its shell.

A couple of Bronies in the IRC and myself were talking about a potential meetup in the Portland area. Like at Lloyd center or something.

Might be fun, but it likely wouldn't happen until this summer.

>>24797901
How goes the college work MM? Is this week's lack of a new ep helpful?

>>24798112
I would love to attend a meetup! If there is one in CT let me know.

>>24798112
to maximize turnout for any potential meetup, make sure to get in on EqD

>>24798080
Not a rock, a Roc. An enormous bird. Equestria is full of mythical creatures

Her pet is Fluttershy.

>>24797966
Ah, okay. Can't say i'm familiar with that band, but from my youtube excursion they seem goddamn decent. But what does this have to do with ponies? Yes, I know the spoiler text probably didn't work, I never used this feature before

>>24798058
>Just like her accent from the Midwest
I thought she was supposed to be British or something?

>>24798140
The e-mail has already been sent by another brony.

Somehow the discussion turned to Pony Conventions and apparently RoyGBiv has organized conventions in the past... but it would need a lot of money, at least a year of planning and more to make that work. Portland is a good city for conventions though.

And lets face it, we really don't know where this fandom will be in a year.

>>24797959
Actually, there is one theory that hasn't been explored...
What? Twilight is the only one who can have a sentient pet?

Candyvag

>>24798122
I'm on da univerrrrrsity, trying to become a teacher eeeyup!
and the lack of a new episode is just sad...

>>24798112
As entertaining as a meet-up sounds, there's only four other bronies in Houston that I know of. Besides, I would probably feel underage. I'm not (barely - almost out of high school) but it would probably still feel that way.

Have some Pinkie Pie, /co/

>>24798177
Apparently you've never posted ponies while listening to metal. Shit's Rainbow Cash.

>>24798164
She can't have both?

>>24798198
we talked about that shortly last thread

>>24797875
That...that actually sounds adorable. One day the turtle finds out she's been lying about what kind of pet she has and tries to run away, he gets as far as the driveway.

>>24798186
I'm not entirely certain it's midwest, but I know it's not british. If the poem is incorrect I'll fix it.

>>24798080
wtf Jesus!!!??

>pic related

>>24797875
Fucking THIS!!

>>24798198
>Implying Spike isn't a pet

I think it was mid-Atlantic. I don't remember; I did this poem when I was really tired.

I am searching for the one known as the /co/smonaut. I finally finished of sound mind (I've been multi tasking, so it took a long ass time) I enjoyed it alot! Although I feel that the ending was kinda meh. Great story though.

>>24798357
not as disturbed as the artist of this.

this is now a scootaloo thread

Some post here made me think that Dwayne Johnson would be a good pet for Rainbow Dash.

>>24798469
I don't know... you tell me.

>>24798459
So have I.

>>24798466

You need to redo that macro

When it's Scoot, it's 10% , not 20%

>>24798417

Yeah the ending probably could have been rounded out better I got that complaint. But I am a sucker and wanted everyone happy ending.

Not in new story though. Everyone dies. Except for one

>>24798206
A regular Cheerilee eh? That's a noble profession, I just hope they treat teachers better wherever you're at. Study hard!

I hope Dash's pet is a praying mantis

Hey all.

Does anyone have a full picture of Angel Bunny? I would like to put a picture of him on the Fluttershy shoes I'm working on. I would REALLY appreciate it.

Also, to Dr. White (regarding the RD shoes): I'm afraid I CAN'T make the shoes any darker without ruining the shoe itself. I'm making the best of what I can in using the colors provided to me by Zazzle. I do thank you for the feedback. And do you have any more advice regarding the Wonderbolts shoes (I can't control the price, but if someone wants them that badly, they'll pay.)

Finally, Shoe Brony (if you're out there): I'd like to talk to you, if you get the chance.

>>24798534
Never saw that one.

OK time for comic

some russian brony cult requested me this some days ago, they are translating those comics into russian.
and if you thought that my english was bad just wait to read those in russian

>Scootaloo

I adore and loather her at the same time

Hey Maxie, are you up for a request? I've got one involving Scootaloo and Dash that I've been waiting to ask you all week

I always keep my Scoot requests aside for you

>>24798620

now the wheels in my head have been turning
since i looked at the love for Scoots
see, i've promised myself i'd write to give you boners
and right now an idea's planting its roots

>>24798650
nope

>>24798580
Why is her crown behind her horn? Just curious I looks a little off.

>>24798580

I approve of the manly facial hair

Luna looks upset in the last panel for some reason

>>24798580
It's about time you killed someone off in an upcoming comic.

first we'd need to figure out what her father was named.

i remember a quick-fic where her father died in a thunderstorm while trying to get there in time to see her birth. he didn't make it, because he wasn't fast enough to outrun the storm.

Dash named the turtle after him, partly to remind herself of him, oh yes. but also, to remind herself that the only way to honour her father is to go fast.

gotta go fast.

>>24799124
>>24799124

When Rainbow thinks no one is looking she dresses the turtle up in a little scarf and aviator goggles, picks him up, and "flies" him around the room while making whoosing sounds.

You know, I never thought I'd ever filter a tripfriend.

Drawfriend needs to get on it.

>>24799563
that would be tantamount to dinofag drawing himself as a king dino or something....that might be kinda cool actually, maybe, sorta.

>>24799563

Now why would she want to draw that when she could draw something good instead, like more humanized ponies with huge tits?

>>24799563

I'd like to see her pony in that flamenco outfit, or whatever you called it, that she had Scootaloo wearing.

>>24799563
i would rage

>>24799589
If unicorns are part tree, and witches are made of wood, does that mean that unicorns are WITCHES?

I motion we talk about how awesome Braeburn is.

>>24799602
Only if he makes himself chase Jeff Goldbloom.

>>24799537

He's pretty cute.

>>24799414
Hi nice to meet you too.

>>24799564
Looks like anonymous did.

Look at what you're doing to scootaloo, your love is hurting her.

>>24799618

We must throw Twilight Sparkle down a well to see if she floats

Then we can burn her

>>24799619

Everyone is gay for Braeburn

Even Dash

>>24799629
i said maybe. but slywit has the right idea about goldblum

>>24799647
>>24799647
scootaloo? hurt? where? i dont see any blood...

silly anonymous, scootaloo isnt hurt

>>24799652
I'll get my pitchfork!

>>24799622
You mean Gummy?

So, I don't know where else I can ask this, so I'll just do it here:

What poor bastard has to clean up all the horse shit in Equestria? There must be ungodly amounts of it. And does it rain shit down upon anyone unlucky enough to be below Cloudsdale?

>>24799619
I vote next thread be a Braeburn thread

None of the old threads are worth recycling, who's gonna make a new thread?

new thread?

Simple fact: Big Mac> Braeburn.

Some of you seem to have forgotten that.

Someone make a braeburn thread

It is time we give into our homolust

>>24799700

HA!

With that I'm off to hit the pillow. Night all

>>24799708

>>24799590

Put Brae and Mac in the same room and we'll have a whole bunch of confused sexualities among anon.

>>24799736
night /co/smonaut

>>24799743

and a knife

>>24799748

I don't think so, Tim.

Made a Rarity wallpaper that I'll post in the next thread. It's nothing major - just a pasted picture with her name done up all purdy in a Word Document (I am Shoopless).

>>24799708
When a septic tank bursts in Cloudsdale, it's a real shit storm.

>>24799612
>flamenco outfit
>Scootaloo

>WAT

>>24799758
i mean, they have spas and tubs to take baths in

it wouldnt make sense for them not to have toilets...

>>24799748
If they both fucked a filly at the same time, will she explode?

>>24799817
Maybe they wear diapers.

>>24799788

Or whatever kind of Latin American dancing style it's called. She's got a pic of Scootaloo dancing in it. It's adorable. I thought maybe that since she's from Latin America it might mean something to her.

>>24799817

...I suppose this is a valid point. Thank you very much. I feel better now.

>>24799831
She would, probably.

But.

I'm finding it hard not to grimace to think of what she'd explode with.

>>24799836
no.

>>24799905
I'm certain it isn't the case at all, but I can't help but post this.

>>24799839
Oh, that dress. I know what you're talking about. I thought flamenco was kinda skimpy, but I might be wrong
