MLP: FIM writers are definitely reading my stories!

In Scootaloo's Family, she has a brother who is a fan of Equestria's version of the Crocodile Hunter.

In today's episode, her father is Equestria's version of the Crocodile Hunter.

Coincidence? I think not!

You have a point.

Although I think he's more like Crocodile Dundee than Steve Irwin.

But that's just me.

Interesting. In Letters From a Little Princess Monster, Scootaloo's parents both have jobs in Cloudsdale, and they don't have her with them because it would be dangerous for a little filly who can't fly to be there. In the episode, Scootaloo's parents both have dangerous jobs in the wilderness, and they don't have her with them because it would just be dangerous.

Really, the writers probably went through the same chain of "hmmmm" that we all did, although I thought making Scoots have both pegasus parents worked better. And an interesting thought about her aunts. One is an earth pony, one is a pegasus, just like her mom and dad in the show. Would it be possible that one is Dad's sister, and one is Mom's sister?

Um, Bernie...

Scoot's dad is probably from Horsetralia or some equally bad pun.

I wonder if we'll see the aunts again before the end of the season, since they live in Ponyville now.

I'm not sure where the information came from, the wiki says that Holiday is Snap's older sister, but they don't say anything about Lofty.

Edit: Apparently it was in the episode.

Aunt Holiday: Lofty, don't tease my brother.

Hosstrailia, I believe you mean.

While I agree spoiler tags may have been needed for those who haven’t watched the episode yet (not me but others might not have yet)

Makes more sense than the surprisingly high number of people who think Gabby was a reference to BlackGryphon.
