Buckball Post-Season [S6: "Buckball Season"]

As the train pulled out of Appleloosa, Rainbow Dash looked around at her friends. "So, is it just me, or did that Kettle Bell gal on the Appleloosa team look...familiar?"

"Now that you mention it," Applejack said, scratching her muzzle thoughtfully, "she did remind me of somepony..."

The car suddenly shook violently, a loud thump! sounding from the roof. Fluttershy let out a shriek of terror and dived under her seat.

The door to the car flew open, and Kettle Bell stomped...gingerly in. "Sorry to bother you, dears," she said in a kindly voice as she hauled a massive box off her back. "Your train left before I could finish putting together this care package. Could you please deliver this to my son Bulk Biceps?"

The ponies stared at her, wide-eyed. "Uhh...sure," Rainbow Dash said.

"Thank you, dearie," Kettle Bell said. "Tell him mommy sends her love!"

With that, she flew out the open door, her tiny wings carrying her ponderously back to Appleloosa.

Applejack, Snails, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy all stared at each other.

"Well," Applejack said. "That's a thing that happened."

Heh. I had the same sort of thought, although mine was "cousin" rather than "parent."

[Albi]

THAT WAS A MARE?

Well that explains that.

"Well," Applejack said. "That's a thing that happened."

Applejack, you truly are a philosopher of immense eloquence and verbosity.

[Black_Knight]

It seems with think alike. I actually made a remark that this pony was Bulk's mother.

7539134 I know, right? That was my reaction too. Then I saw a screenshot and...

[MythrilMoth]

7539432 Yeah, I derped. Fixing.

[FanOfMostEverything]

This explains so much, and yet so little...

[AnoneMouseJr]

7539037 Agreed. There was a pony people were calling "Mama Bulk" or "Mama Biceps" back in "Equestria Games" - she was in the audience, just by the corner of the royal box, closest to the bottom of the screenshot. (Closeup here - she's wearing pearls and a beehive hairdo.)

Still a cute chapter though.

Until next time...

Yeah, I can see that.

Looks more like Grandmama Biceps. Headcanon adjusted.

[SuperPinkBrony12]

I think this sums up our reaction just about perfectly.
