>>3301 >for applejack appreciators Here's something that Applejack might appreciate.

>>3303 very nice! I'm sure she would.

The applefags manage to still have an extremely comfy thread on /mlp/, so not surprised the thread isn't so active here I hope their thread stays nice forever

Who is a silly pony?

I like apples

>>5053 Appul's looking a little rough here.

Does the apple family grow anything other than apples on their garden? I feel like only growing apples would put them at risk for an irish potato famine type of situation

>>5281 In The Return of Harmony Part 1, she's harvesting corn. I'm fairly certain that there are other crops too. But mostly apples.

Applejack is my favorite pony. She's the best.

>>5728 This workpony inspires me to accomplish things and do stuff!

>>13105 She is proud of you, anon

How many apple trees does Applejack have?

>>13216 Let's assume 40 apple trees per acre. Suppose that she has 100 acres at least. That's at least 400 apple trees. Personally, I like to think she has more acres. But could she and her family handle all of them?

>>13219 >could she and her family handle all of them? She and Big Mac could. The only time she needed help was when Big Mac was hurt.

>>13271 Cute! Especially like the hoofs up and hoofs down icons. I would definitely subscribe to Applejack's PonyTube channel.

Apples apples apples sweet

>>15047 Is she going to test fly a barn?

Almost Fall!....Apples!

She's gorgeous.

i love aj

>>16321 >Oranges >Suspicious expression Who are you really?

Strong mare!

>>16367 Hopefully that's not one of her apple trees.

>>16368 No, it's Fluttershy.

>>16367 Looks like she was trying to wake up Rainbow Dash.

>>16373 She failed, Dash is gonna crash. She sleeps like a rock.

Sleepy apples.

>>16585 I want to fall asleep with her

>>16585 Appletastic.

>>16591 Before going to bed, I always imagine that I'm holding her next to me. I always have good dreams. Not a single nightmare since I started doing it.

they all made you and apple pie

yeehaw

>>3301 How would you make her a less boring character?

>>18132 It is a great honor to receive apple pie from Applejacks. >>18433 I don't think she's a boring character. But, I wish they used her talents (lasso, building things, knowledge of plants and growing things, strength, etc.) more in the show.

>>18473 Yeah AJ is a fine character, she was just grossly underutilised in the show.

>>18473 >>18479 The show kind of fucks up everything interesting about Equestria. Applejack comes off as underutilized because earth ponies were robbed of their powers. I kind of like how she lives a normal life instead of doing insane shit all the time though. Imagine what Pinkie would be like without reality breaking powers: just baking treats and giving them out at normal parties.

The fandom always obsessed over AJ's parents, but who was Granny Smith's husband? Why isn't he ever shown or mentioned anywhere?

>>18513 >The show kind of fucks up everything interesting about Equestria. Oh god you don't need to tell me, some stuff I cared about got utterly ruined, but that would be getting way off topic. >Applejack comes off as underutilized because earth ponies were robbed of their powers. Yeah what was up with that, it's weird that they just left that alone. The closest we get is that they are really good at farming, even farming rocks somehow, but I don't remember it being mentioned that that was specifically earth pony magic. I never see Applejack's rodeo skills get brought up in fanfics and stuff, but maybe I'm just not reading the right ones. Seems like a waste not to do anything with it. >I kind of like how she lives a normal life instead of doing insane shit all the time though. Yeah I think bouncing around from crazy threat to wild event over and over would end up driving me insane and sick with worry over those I care about. A much more normal life like hers is ideal. >just baking treats and giving them out at normal parties. Honestly I prefer a Pinkie that's closer to that, maybe along with some of the weird stuff, instead of the lulsorandum 4th wall breaking stuff.

>>18479 This is basically true. >>18513 She doesn't need extraordinary powers herself. She only needs them when acting as The Element of Honesty in conjunction with her friends. >>18517 That's a good question. Did he die too? If so, what is the Apple family mortality rate and what effect would it have on their family. Just a simple premise could lead to a very interesting study of the characters. I never invested much in thinking about their family until I started writing ideas for a Superman crossover story. Then it was just a simple premise: "What if baby Superman saved AJ's parents and then grew up as her brother?" That was all it took and I ended up writing a whole bunch exploring her character, more than I've written for any other member of the mane six. It only takes a simple premise that might be interesting and suddenly you open up a whole bunch of possibilities to explore.

>>18520 >it's weird that they just left that alone And also showed unicorns growing plants, turning animals into plants, creating food out of thin air, etc. >zap apples in Family Appreciation Day This was a great example of how showing earth pony magic can be interesting and also fit into the world/story. There's that one scene in Winter Wrap Up where the pegasi are all clearing the sky in formation and they make a huge cyclone - imagine what earth ponies could accomplish working in concert like that. I also wish unicorn magic was shown with more process, like incantations or catalysts, but that's not really Applejack related. >>18547 They have family reunions etc. and Granny Smith's husband never shows up, so he's probably dead. What kind of death would make sense for Applejack's parents and grandparents? >Heroically fighting in Equestria's wars Doesn't feel like it fits since the guard doesn't look like they do much, but I should honestly be ignoring the way the show made the guard look lame since it's just a side effect of the way the stories portrayed in the show were constructed and not an intentional design. >Monster attack Seems plausible given how often they show up. >A magical accident It might explain why Applejack usually forbids the use of magic on her farm. >Sickness Magical or otherwise is possible, but grim and meaningless. >Saving their foals from danger It'd give their deaths meaning and it's one of the few reasons a pony would throw themselves into mortal danger. >old age Granny is "hundreds" of years old, so the fact that she's even alive is already a miracle.

Wish I could wake up to this every morning

4chan is kill I apul on this board now

the moth lurks

>>3301 Crapplejack was made for Strawberry Sunrise.

>>20789 >homo has fag opinions shocking

Fuck it, I wrote a cute little pregnancy story about Applejack, and would anyone like me to post it here? It's about associated artwork.

>>20805 Applejack content for the Applejack thread. Go on, I'd say.

>>20805 yes

>>20796 Applehomo is better off with Sunrise, better than Crashie at least (lesbian shit being in the show at all is still fucked, she deserved to have a big loving family like she wanted) >>20805 Do it

Excuse me for wearing a name, but I always do that when I post a story directly. Here's the Fimfiction copy: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/568567/3/sweaty-short-stories-with-pregnant-pony-workouts/bent-out-of-shape Bent Out of Shape “Thanks for helping us get our cutie marks as bodybuilders, sis!” Apple Bloom cheerfully trotted down one of the many dirt roads of Ponyville with Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle alongside her. Trailing them by a ways was Applejack—looking nothing like a bodybuilder with her swollen middle—and looking everything like a *bodybuilder* because of it, as Pinkie Pie had many times told her with a laugh. Applejack was wearing sweat bands around her legs, as were they, and the fancier-looking bands around Sweetie Belle’s reminded her that Rarity could’ve been watching them instead of her. Applejack frowned since nopony would see it. “No worries, ya’ll just slow down and stay where ah can see ya. I ain’t as fast as I used to be.” Applejack was more than a little annoyed that she had to keep telling them that and, as she felt another blow against her body from the inside, none too pleased about leaving the farm either. According to Granny Smith, an Apple could *tell* when she was off the farm, even in the womb, and hers didn’t like it at all. It crossed Applejack’s mind that maybe all the walking and talking and everything else she did when leaving the farm caused it instead, but she disregarded the thought and continued to believe in Granny. She now saw Ponyville’s gym in the distance, and the three fillies dashed over to it and entered, despite her yelling. She sighed and hung her head. The gym was safer than the contraption they’d made on the farm with old wood and wheels and whatever else they could find—Applejack still couldn’t make sense of how they were supposed to use it for exercise—and the realization that the trio was, just for a few minutes, somepony else’s responsibility brought a relieved smile to her face. Somepony in the gym would stop them from maiming themselves, or somepony else, probably. She turned to look at her side before speaking. “Ya better behave better than your aunt when you get outta there, ya hear?” She felt her foal preparing another targeted strike, and sucked in her gut to stop it. Instead of a single hard blow, she felt gentle squirming. “Now what did I just say?” She entered the gym smiling, first walking over to the watering trough and drinking her fill before looking around for the crusaders. “How much weight should we use?” Sweetie Belle asked Apple Bloom while attaching a harness to Scootaloo. “Scootaloo could use the exercise, so all of it, I guess.” Apple Bloom slid another piece of metal onto the device. Once Scootaloo nodded, Apple Bloom pushed the rack of metal into place, immediately flinging Scootaloo upwards into the ceiling before she fell back down and was held above the ground; she grit her teeth and began to sweat while her wings buzzed. “C’mon Scootaloo, you can do it!” Applejack decided they would be okay. Applejack looked around at the other ponies in the gym. There weren’t many. She noticed Twinkle Shine on her way to the watering trough, and chose to start a conversation. “Heya, Twinkle Shine. How’re ya doing?” Twinkle Shine’s attention was taken from airing out her outfit with her magic, and aimed towards the mare whom she realized to be the sweatiest pony in the entire gym. “I’m fine, Applejack. Are you? Should you be working out, in your condition?”

Applejack wasn’t quite sure what Twinkle meant at first. She looked at her legs, and then her reflection in the water; sweat coated every inch of her fur. Applejack hated to admit it, but she felt a little worn out just from the walk, and could now see that she was still breathing a little more heavily than usual. “Naw, I’m not working out here. I’m just out of shape, I guess.” Applejack was so uncomfortable with her realization that she cracked a joke. “Ya gotta get out of shape when you get a shape in you, you know?” She laughed a little, and Twinkle joined in, whether she found it funny or not. She knew how Applejack could get. It never occurred to Applejack that she had been sweaty from all of her chores outdoors, before she had even noticed the crusaders’ antics for the afternoon. Applejack walked away from her reflection and absentmindedly leaned against a rack of weights. “I’m just here to watch my sister and her friends while they,” she looked at what they were doing now to see Sweetie Belle red in the face and struggling to lift a single weight with her magic, “try to work out, I guess.” Applejack sighed and relaxed; her belly drooped to rest askew beneath her. She felt another kick reverberate through her to sandwich her body between a little hoof inside and the metal outside. She grunted before standing herself up all the way and walking away from it towards the crusaders. “Um... Applejack...” Twinkle Shine started. “Huh?” Applejack stopped next to a hanging sandbag. One of the weights was no longer straight, but bent very conspicuously at the same height as her belly. “Uh,” Applejack had no time to think before another kick struck the sandbag. She waddled mostly out of the way before it swung back and struck her in the rear. It now turned back-and-forth just a little and had a hole in it leaking sand, a hole she realized had been caused by a little hoof. Applejack didn’t even notice her belly swinging underneath her much the same as the sandbag. “Aw... dangit... that hurt a little bit.” Applejack was sore in more than her body, and didn’t want to think of her coin purse that would be losing some weight soon. She started to suck in her gut again and spoke to the crusaders as she more quickly and awkwardly waddled her way over to them. “Now fillies, I think it’s about time we leave before you break anything, so I don’t have to pay the owner even more.” That last bit was muttered under her breath. Twinkle Shine nervously looked between the broken weight and leaking sandbag; Twinkle Shine decided she was never going to have an Earth pony’s foals.

This was my most recent Applejack story, but I've got something less prurient and more cute that I can post later today. After that, I'm all out of Applejack stories, but I may be open to suggestions if you guys are interested.
