Applejack has always been the most grounded of the main cast, the most content. But that doesn't mean it's a happy contentment, or one Applejack would willingly choose to maintain.

This was a very charming use of catharsis; everything came together & worked towards a wise conclusion.
Well done.
I liked it! While as a story it was a bit telly, I felt it authentically captured the experience of being depressed, and how it feels when you're looking back over your life. I've certainly been Applejack and had that conversation, and I really appreciated getting to see it in writing. Well done.
Great insight into Fluttershy and Applejacks' characters.
What about Applejack's participation in rodeos though?

This is largely based off of my own personality, so forgive me for the parts where it doesn't quite mesh. (At one point, this was gonna be about Twilight, not Applejack, but I thought the contentment angle worked better this way. Maybe I'll write the Twilight version sometime.) That being said, Applejack does mention later the externality angle. The rodeo only comes around once a year or whatever, so as long as it comes to her and not the other way around, it doesn't require her to step outside of herself. It's a demonstration of skills she already has, so it's not as though she had to learn anything new for it, either.
That... is a really good question. I don't know.
I hope that makes sense.
8132027 That does make some sense, thanks.
I must say, you're good at writing character pieces. This work resonated strongly with me because I've had similar thoughts and doubts in my life.
Nitpick, but I don't feel Flutters is that timid anymore, especially around friends.
I'm sorry, but I laughed in shock at this one. I first read this as "man."

That's fair enough, certainly. Perhaps what I was thinking was, if someone suddenly yells out of nowhere, old habits might come back on instinct.
Also, lol.
Comments like that are just meant to be little worldbuilding filigrees (I'm a sucker for adding those in), but when they draw your attention like that... it's not really what I was going for.
