Applejack believes her 25th birthday party will be just like any other birthday party. She ends up being wrong in the sweetest way possible.

Gonna be kind of awkward if they really do end up being Cousins.

They're not cousins in this fic and seeing as how Marble Pie had a crush on Big Mac in the show, I highly doubt they're actually related.
Enjoy this fic in your ears!
It's a beautiful sentiment. I just can't see it coming from Pinkie.
Really, that's my issue with the whole story. It feels like a thinly veiled defense of the pairing that still doesn't manage to convince me. You have some good points, especially the importance of family, but over all it feels like a combination of "pair the spares" and, to paraphrase Sherlock Holmes, "Once you have eliminated the undesirable, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the OTP." Granted, a thousand words doesn't exactly offer a lot of room for subtlety...
In any case, thank you for this and best of luck in the judging.
hehe, but those are the ApplePie colors, how can they be an odd pairing?
aww, time flies on so quickly! Twilight's height is always a great way to mark the time that has passed since her accession
title drop!
i wonder how many of these are Apple family members!
aww, i would have Applejack's reaction too, so i'm glad it's not the case! especially since i can't imagine Cheese Sandwich being awful like that, that would be heartbreaking!
aww, i love how when Pinkie thinks of "more different", it's Applejack and not the hippogriff princess that she thinks of! i love ponies augh
aww so true! augh they have so many important things in common
oof, yeah, it didn't seem like there was much of a future for them given what we saw of their lives in "The Maud Couple". and it's extra sad to remember that Marble's heart being broken by Big Mac is 100% canon
aww, Pinkie Pie tastes like vanilla cream cake, because of course she does!
this was a really cute bit of post-canon shipping, swatting away the competing ships until only the sweetest one remains. as sweet as a slice of vanilla cream cake. thank you so much for it!
