In the show itself, most ponies are clearly meant to be rather small, if you compare them to pets and other animals. Early on, Sweety Belle was only slightly larger than Opal. If regular FiM ponies are larger than humans, Angel Bunny is the size of Danny DeVito, lol.
That said, this fic has the Alt. Universe tag, so that doesn't necessarily matter all that much.

Barring a huge explanation, ponies in this are a solid foot taller than in the show, give or take. Show sizes at the top of their heads are roughly where AU ponies' withers are. The folks that made the cartoons were all over the place. Just to be sure I did a quick search and found a page on stack exchange that goes through a lot of trouble to sort this out.
Without sparking some huge debate, I figure that in a more realistic setting, without their heads being damn near 50% of their entire body's volume, they would be quite a bit heavier than a human would even if a large EP is still at least a foot shorter than a human. A search found Spotted Pony between 32 and 56 inches tall clocks in between 450 and 900 lbs. Deed is roughly 48 inches at the withers and I think I put him at about 450lbs, so ... yeah. That's about the extent of the thought I put into it. They're definitely slimmer than a real pony on Earth and maybe not as "long".
Average sizes I'm roughly using (at the withers)
EP - 4 ft, Unicorn - about 3.5, Pegasus - about 3
That's for males, so maybe take 2-4 inches off for females. Also, there can always be outliers.
Logically, the tribe that's primarily about brute strength would have to be bigger than the one that's supposed to be able to zip around in the air unless we chalk it all up to "magic" in which case any random pegasus would be burning like dozens or hundreds of times more juice in a day of flying then a typical unicorn who mostly just levitates lightweight objects (i.e. quills, notepads, what-have-you) all day.
Just don't expect me to always stay completely consistent with these numbers. I'm trying, granted, but I don't want someone pointing back to this comment thirty chapters from now asking "WTF BRO?"

Yeah, I don't think that should be a problem in any way. Even with specific number in mind, there's always going to be some individual variations with different body types - same as in the show past its early seasons. In another chapter you've mentioned Bulk Byceps the pegasus, then there's Trouble Shoes. Humans are unusually uniform as a species, there's no reason to assume the same for the ponies.
LOL
I forget the colors of the mares and dad in this already.
this chapter had some really nice comedy :D

Uniform?? Do tell me, a 6'8" tall tower who work along with a bunch 5' tall stumps
Just like in Twins.
Still weird how well Vines is taking her son being a 40 year old man who had a wife and two kids. You'd think that would change the dynamic a lot. He's a man in a colt's body, not just a smart colt. He's almost a stranger now in my eyes.
Honestly, I agree. Never used to be into mlp, hell I used to quite dislike it and avoid every aspect of it. Then I started reading xcom fanfiction a friend recommended me, and that led me to the Stardust stories, an xcom/mlp crossover, the first fimfic I ever read, and I was hooked.
(Hahahah ok this made me laugh
Also what made you choose watermelon for his family to grow?.)

(Also this is what made me laugh)
So Cure is the only one who can see the auras, his and others', but they can't see their own?
This might lead Cure to becoming like the Earth Pillars such as Granny Smith and Terra were depicted in Moguera's Savage Skies series.
:)
Why can i only upvote one time!
I want Celestia to shower me in her solar cream. Dear lord, I can already taste the spicy nacho flavor
ROFLMAO! That would be hilarious!
