Daily Dosage of Shipping: AppleDash! · 12:12am Jul 26th, 2018

Always thought these two looked cute together.


















Which ones did you guys like the most? :heart:

Totes adorbs. Me likey very much. (Especially because I just wrote a totally cute confession scene between Rainbow Dash and a really burlesque pegasus guy.) Dashie's cute, no matter how much she insists she isn't.

Fall Weather Friends = AppleDash: The Episode
Non-Compete Clause = AppleDash 2: Electric Scootaloo

While I like the look and chemestry of Apple Dash, I've always considered them the least likely to be a long term successful couple. Main reason: Competitiveness.
Competition between mates kills a relationship. And one thing that Applejack and Dash do all the time is compete. It wouldn't take long for it all to become a constant battle of oneupmanship.
Another reason: Work ethic. Applejack is a workaholic. Dash is a nap-aholic. Oh sure, Dash does work on her routines and flying ability, that has been demonstrated, but more time is shown of her goofing off and napping. The very things that would rankle a personality like Applejack to her wits end.
Final reason, Applejack is grounded and stable in a life she loves. Rainbow is in an occupation she loves that necessitates travel and time away from home. Farmers need a partner who is a stable presence . Performers need a partner who is either comfortable with frequent and prolonged absence, or is willing to adopt the same on-the-road lifestyle.
I love both characters, but they would never make it as a couple.

Woud like to see more of them together next season. Maybe the writers could put the competition aside and develop their bond a bit more.

Um... just checking, but have you watched anything past season 3? :P

Ha! Yes, but the last two years not so much.
What would you have me reexamine?

It just feels like you aren't all caught up to speed with how the characters have developed in the last few seasons, is all. Made me feel like I was going back in time to when I joined the fandom around season 3. XP

Applejack and Dash competitiveness was still an issue in that recent episode where they took the students out on a field trip as instructors. So my main point doesn't appear to have changed.

And truthfully, I think the show should have ended or switched and followed a new group after season 5.

Cute Appledash all around.

As much as I despise AppleDash, I will not lie. These pics were pretty adorable.

QuibbleDash for all time.

This ship just never stuck with me, but it was rel cute in those pics

They do look cute together, though I thought you were a TwiDash shipper.
