Only reasonable explanation.
Rainbow.... she wouldn't stop looking for me if... if she didn't think Ah was. Twilight, Twilight's a logical gal. Fall into tha stormy seas, middle of tha night.... doesn't know bout this island, probably, way too small. Easy enough for HER ta convince Rainbow. Rarity... Rarity would think like Twilight. Poor Flutters wouldn't know what ta think. And Pinkie...
Ah don't know about Pinkie. Maybe that dang sense of hers is telling her Ah'm alive, and all tha gals think she's nuts. Ah don't know how she'd react ta death.
She is, ya know. Nuts. Brilliant, in her own way. But absolutely bonkers. Can't keep... keep her thoughts straight, ya know?
One of tha voices told me ta pee on mah leg. Ah don't get why. That's just... disgusting.
Nother one said ta cut it off. That makes.... a kind of sense. But Ah'm not.... not going ta. Nope.
They say not ta give up. They say.... Derpy? Derpy's looking fer me? Ha. Ah'd love ta see that mare.... great mom, great daughters. You should see them, Cocoa. Warms mah heart right up.
You know, Derpy has a.... thang? Some degenerative neurological... thang. She, she doesn't let it stop her. Doesn't even use it as an excuse. Ah respect that.
...If that mare can keep on trucking with something like that.... why can't Ah deal with a broken leg?
Kay, Ah need to plan this. Gotta.... Gotta find a splint. Set the bone. That's gonna be painful. Kay, bindings..... kay. Okay. Deep breaths. Alright.
Here we go.
Here we go....
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRGH!
Ah....
ha.....
...gotta... set splints. Tie. Tie them up.
Ha.....
....ow.
Ow.
Heh... it... it hurts less now. Haha....
I hope AJ get's out of here alive.
So we're the voices in Applejack's head? That is certainly an interesting idea.
To Applejack:
If you see a ship again, then build a large signal fire to get their attention. You should start gathering kindle and tinder for emergencies. Try to stay out of the water; any open wounds might get infected or you could step on something poisonous. Good luck.
AJ, you've set the bone back into place good. Best thing to do now is to try and keep as much pressure off of it as much as possible. Try to get too and use any fresh water you find to keep yourself hydrated, and keep your spirits up! Your an Apple, your from THE Apple Family, the most toughest and stubborn farming family around! Don't you dare give up!
"Just because I'm "logical" doesn't mean I'm going to give up "that" easily Applejack. Your tough, I know that. You just got to hang on, we WILL FIND YOU."
"Now Darling, just because I'm a "bit" like Twilight in the regard of logical thinking doesn't mean I'm going to stop looking for you as well."
"Yeah AJ, you know that I wouldn't give up on you that easily, I never leave my friends hanging."
"Yeah! Hey! just because I'm little bonkers here and there doesn't mean I can't keep my thoughts straight, especially when one of my best friends is in trouble. Though I don't think that I have a combo for my "Pinkie Sense" that'll tell me if your gone or not. and that's just sad to think about and I don't want to think about what things would be like if your gone, but-I-know-that-your-still-out-there-somewhere-and-I'm-gonna-keep-looking-for-you-and-THEEEEN-we-can-throw-you-a-"HURRAY WE FOUND YOU AND NOW YOUR HOME PARTY!!"
"I.....I don't want to think about you being gone, I-I'm going to find you also Applejack then everything's going to be all better........if you don't mind I mean."
"Would you like a Muffin?"
"Con'sarnit me! I'm not gonna let some pain and a broken leg keep me from getting home, now am I?"
"What would Granny Smith say if I gave up now after lasting this long? Think of Big Mac, do I think that he wouldn't like it if I just gave up and him ending up losing a sister, what about Applebloom? Oh Applebloom........" "She needs us, Big Mac, I and Applebloom already lost Ma and Pa, I don't need to up and get my self lost so Applebloom can lose us also!!"
AJ, you've gotta build something big to get their attention. Ever see the movie "Madagascar"? Not that it worked there, but...
Er, oh! Have you tried using your element at all? You have it with you?
Look inside your mind. Send a message to your friends! Tell them you're alive, and to keep looking for you. You have that special, elemental connection with them, right? Something like that?
ok, the 'peeing on the leg part' might sound discusting, but its one of the few ways you'd be able to steralize a open wound with (which you don't have, thank Faust!) unless you got boiling water, but that would probably do more damage than good and- wait... you can hear us?! Ok Applejack, lisen carefully, first of all, stay positive, your friends who'd not give up on you, you just have to hang on, secondly, what are your resorses? how much fresh water do you have? food? what materials do you have at your disptial? thirdly, do not worry about who we are (should probably have said that first...) focus on the ones that don't tell you things like 'cut your leg of' thats stupid as...uh.. hay? anyways give us something to work with here girl! talking to Cocoa may seem bonkers, but we seem to be able to hear you when you do.
...
...be safe, ok?
Keep an eye on that leg. This is not a case of set it and forget it.
There is one avenue you may not have considered: dreams. I'm not sure how to attract Princess Luna's attention while dreaming, but if you can, you should be able to alert her to your situation.
Simaruba. Look it up.
See? See how painful it is to save a backstabber?
And with Ajs comparison, well, it's because Derpy at least isn't a lame horse right now. Meanwhile, here we have a pony of questionable sanity, who thought she could help in something she had no idea what she was doing in, and is now talking to a Cocanut tree.
What a silly pony...
Who's a silly pony?
Your a silly pony!
Who is?
You is!
Applejack!
