Um... why doesn't Rarity see if Cranky and Matilda could take the new donkey in? Also, how is that making the problem? From what we've seen in canon, ponies have no problem with donkeys.
Wouldn't this be hooves?

Think about the situation. New ponies not from Ponyville. New ponies not used to mixing with strangers or even other tribes.
Ponies living under constant fear and paranoia, and then being ever so slightly xenophobic.
5082761 So how would that affect Cranky and Matilda, if they are already living there?
what ARE donkeys now that I think about it? where do they apply?
5082764
Same way it is affecting Zecora. They stay away from the refugees and keep a low profile.
come my pupil, come to the
darkperverted sidethis is going to bee good
5082746 ponies are racists
5082766
Donkeys are donkeys.
I have several in other works. They have no inherent magic, but many do have genius level IQs, which are common for their race. See Graves in Princess Luna's Suicide Solutions. Or the donkey family in The Badly Written Life of Purple Prosie. (Morose and Melancholy)
Almost all donkeys in my works have sad sounding names. Graves, Morose, Melancholy, this is a tribute to Eeyore, but in my verses, it is also because they no longer have a homeland due to the griffons. So they name their young sad sounding names because they have no place to call home anymore.
5082767 to be fair it did seem to be less zecora herself and more the eldritch forest she was living in like it was no big deal. the ponies were far more afraid of where she lived than the individual.
and to be honest there has to be something strange to zecora if she lives in the everfree without a care.
5082764
Somehow, this seems incredibly speciest to me... or racist.
Hey, since you both are donkeys, here, take another one into your home? Cause all donkeys belong together, right?
I dunno, I've been looking at this statement for a few minutes now trying to figure out why it bothers me. Something about it feels... off somehow.
5082803
She's an evil enchantress...
And she eats ponies.
Nope. Nopony was afraid of Zecora at all.
5082767
IDK, in the show donkeys are all over the place. They seem to blend into pony culture. The reason ponies feared Zecora was her culture was strange and mysterious. Now if ponies thought she had some illness or they didn't want to be bothered with some may consider a feral mule, it might be a bit more understandable.
5082842 See you're doing it again. The first rule here on this site is, don't let your emotions get the best of you. You're stooping down to their level, lower than them actually. Just ignored it and act like you normally would....without the deleting comments part.
5082855
Right now though, ponies are attacking their fellow ponies. Mostly violence upon unicorns. Nopony trusts outsiders.
Under perfectly peaceful times ponies are a bit more sociable.
5082857
Meh, fair enough. I was trying to use absurd humour to generate a laugh.
5082857
Kinda funny though how quickly you showed up when there seemed to be trouble. Just like last time.
So, enjoying the Chase? Care to discuss it?
5082867 Yeah I like The Chase, can't really keep up with happened so far. I'm here because I seen authors like you fall when they let their emotions get the best of them. Always remember to ask yourself this before pressing the reply button: Are they worth it?
5082860
That's the thing, donkeys wouldn't be outsiders. It's like the random Asian in a Midwestern town. Outsiders are those who have a different culture. Pegasus, Earthpony, and Unicorn cultures are different. But donkey culture seems bland and boreing. It's like being suspicious of the one Amish person. If any thing I'd be afraid for her. It be easy to take advantage of a deaf/mute.
5082830 their fear and speculation of her came from wehre she lived. to live in a place so out of touch to ponies and their magic would be something ponies are suspicious of.
they consider the everfree alien, evil even. zecora just moved in like it was nothing.
if she lived in White Tail woods their speculation would have been infinitely less harsh I would suspect. not saying they wouldn't be cuatios or suspicious of her, just the ideas of her eating ponies and being an evil enchantress wouldn't have occurred to them as the white tail does not have a reputation like the Everfree.
its like the idea of the old man living in the creepy decrepit old house. your suspicions come not from the old man himself but his residence.
I love Rarity's narrative voice. She doesn't sweat, she glistens alluringly, italics included. Barley? Oh, he's just rather uncouth. Even in times of tumult, she is ever the lady.
Also, Loch is definitely a valuable member of her herd. Somepony has to keep those knuckleheads relatively sane.
Looking forward to more.
5082799 strange attribute to give them.
5082842
Frustration is getting to you I see.
Try not to lose your cool, you're worth more than that.
5082878
There is that little problem as well.
5082885
My Rarity filter requires a lot of effort.
First off, this was a beautiful family scene xD
Secondly, correct me if I am wrong, donkey new heard member for somepony? Or is it somegriffin, I cant remember which heard you said would be reciving a new member :P
5082887
They have to be smart to survive in a world full of predatory species like griffons and dangerous species like unicorns.
The smart ones survive, the dumb ones get eaten.
5082814 Yeah, I can see that now, I didn't mean it like that.
Well, she could at least ask them for advice.
5082897
I am still on the fence. She is introduced into the story. For now.
A donkey that is 'deaf and dumb'? Not buying it. She's laying low to avoid being singled out. Donkeys are pretty smart in the Chaseverse (for the most part...Graves' mother went dumb real quick in Suicide Solutions).
5082922
PLSS is not part of the Chase-Verse.
5082903 shrugs.
....a lot of people like the idea that gryphons hunted ponies at some point. never understood that myself.
5082989
I actually have no details for Peekaboo yet. She is a blank slate for the time being.
5082999
Dragons too.
5082916 OooooooOOOOoooooooohhhhhh
5083004 dragon eating ponies kinda seems iffy to me. wouldn't it be like a lion hunting a small mouse? ........ small mice with potential individuals having the competence to actually wound a dragon on their own.
besides why would celestia risk twilight and her friends in dealing with a dragon anyway?
5083141
Because dragons can be reasoned with. Some of them.
I'd imagine that dragons not living in Equestria might have a very different reaction to ponies and not live in fear of retribution from Celestia or Luna.
RIPPLE.
do i smell clairvoyance or is that just my wok fart?
5083317
?
5083444 i was trying to be funny. for some reason i thought that the donkey would be a clairvoyant but that would be silly
I'd like to see this side of Ripple more often. She's fun.
5082878
I see what Kudzu means. For instance, WW2, America. Prior to WW2, and even prior to Pearl Harbor, Japanese immigrants and Japanese-Americans are part of their community and treated no differently. Friends and jobs and respect that they've earned. Then Pearl Harbor comes about, and it's all whispers and stares and glares and perfectly innocent Japanese disappearing in the night and found beaten and bloody the next day, getting rounded up and put in camps just because of their ethnicity, and many of them never came back out. Likewise, after 9/11 people of Middle-Eastern descent here in America were treated pretty damn poorly... we had a good number of fatalities and even more beatings, they were getting fired for petty reasons, people stopped attending Middle-Eastern owned businesses, etc.
This is like those times. If the ponies can't even fully trust their own tribe, how will they trust the other tribes? And if they can't trust any tribe of pony, they sure as heck can't trust something that isn't explicitly a pony on the whole. Some will obviously make the effort to get to know them, but in general everyone is scared and hateful and worried about survival and protecting their families. Even if you can't trust your own tribe, it's only natural in that situation to believe it's more likely that someone of a completely different species would be the one who'd try to run you through to get at your food.
Make sense, hombre?
"Also on today’s list of things to was to survey a site to build a homes for the earth pony groundskeepers and future servants."

she could be a spy? maybe she could be a homicide detective!
5083268
What game was that?! I have to play it!
5490578
That would be Borderlands 2. The character they were playing as is Zer0, the assassin.
