What does it mean to be Applejack?

You run into a pony who seems to be the 'Debbie Downer' of Ponyville. A feeling deep in your chest decides to make her day a bit better. What you find changes everything you know about cutie marks and your perspective on ponies.

Bonnie talks to a friend the time she needs it the most. Even if it's not a conversation she wanted to have. Or even a conversation she ever expected she would be having.

Applejack, Big Mac and Apple Bloom need to pick apples before winter comes. Applejack then gets in a predicament with some bees.

When a unicorn possesses more natural power than a non-alicorn can hold, consequences take shape. Starlight is one such mare that is victim to the hold of possessing too much magical power for her form to hold. This is her internal struggle.

The man was tired, so very tired.

The couch was old and worn.

Music played through a dated record player.

And then ponies started to show up.

What does all of this mean?

This fic has actually existed for quite some time, but never published. It's gone from being a rant fic about life, to a comedy fic about ponies inhabiting Earth. I could never find what I wanted to do with this story about my life. And then, it clicked. I knew what I wanted, what I needed this fic to be. This is to be read the same way it is written. At the end of a long day, when you're emotionally and physically drained, and you just need to take a break from the world.

This is my break. Have a seat, and relax.

You love your friends in Ponyville, you really do, but you have your suspicions about one of them. Pinkie Pie is so light hearted, bouncy, and carefree, you've begin to wonder if she's really a pony at all. Instead, maybe she's actually a balloon! It seems crazy, but you jut have to find a way to prove it, no matter the cost.

Yeah, this is pretty not-gross and horrible. No vomit, gore, sex, etc. I'm as shocked as you are.
