On a possible false dilemma.... · 11:46pm Apr 5th, 2016
As we all know by now, we're finally at a rather familiar place in the various fanon universes owing to the fact that Apple Bloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle are about to ask themselves "Now that we've GOT our Cutie Marks....what next?" I've noticed two trends of equal popularity:
1) They realize that the only reason that they're together is because of their crusade and since they have nothing really in common, they sadly disband
or
2) They realize that they would have been friends anyway and continue on much as before.
Personally, I think that we're looking at being teased with Scenario One before someone smarter (and wearing a hat Hasbro never seems to put in her merchandise) comes along and steers them to the inevitable Scenario Two. In any event, we're looking at a lot of people complaining about a non-issue because of some odd belief that since the show contradicts their work, they've somehow failed or done something wrong owing to a basic misunderstanding of what fanfiction is about. While I realize that my sole work is simply my idea of a deleted scene, I do know that if it hadn't occurred, it doesn't mean I can't imagine it occurring.
