TambourineBlossom


T

Granny Smith recovers from a bout of pneumonia, and the Apple family realizes that if they keep their secrets much longer, they might never get a chance to open up to her. Applejack, Big Macintosh, Apple Bloom and Braeburn visit her at the hospital and tell her things they've kept hidden for far too long.

How does she take it? Not how you'd expect.

AN: Written for One-Shotober.

Ha! Applejack still doesn't understand Granny.

I mean, I love it. Misunderstanding is just as important a theme as understanding.

This feels oddly familiar.

Still funny,

I'll be the first to admit that Granny Disapproves was probably still in the back of mind when I wrote this, but I tried not to write the same story.

Oh hey, I remember reading that one. Darn, I guess I wasn't being original when I wrote mine. Huh, oh well.

So...who's the friend with benefits?

I intend to answer that question in a later fic.

Well, this was quite an enjoyable read.

Loved it. Every part was great.:raritystarry:

I'm glad you liked it, thanks for another favorite. :twilightsmile:

Haha, that ending. Yeah, I've never understood why people like to treat elderly folks like they're innocent children, as if they hadn't been having sex since before our parents were born. Not thinking about it isn't the same as pretending it never happened.

That ending was beautiful haha
oh my gosh, that was good read! I thought it would take a sadder tone since they were telling Granny all of this because they thought she'd be dying soon, but it was only mentioned here and there, I really liked that. The secrets they had to tell were thoughtful and had a different reaction than I thought. They were diverse for the most part, I'm glad you didn't just reuse the coming out of the closet theme for all of them. Very nice story, a like and a fave you receive!
now I wonder who Applejack is seeing...

I'm glad you liked it, I'm planning on revealing who AJ's buddy is in a later fic. Thanks for the fave! :twilightsmile:

"Oh! Friends with benefits! I've heard about that." Apple Bloom smiled proudly at her sister. "Why not just tell Granny that?"
"Are y' kiddin', Apple Bloom? She's old an' set in her ways, she'd never understand."

?? WHAAATT!?!?:twilightangry2:.............:facehoof::facehoof:

After how easy (almost easy except Big Mac's revelation) that all went you don't THINK SHE WOULD UNDERSTAND??

:facehoof:

Good story though.

Yeah, AJ did not learn this episode's lesson.

Granny Smith is best crotchety old lady. Bar none. :twilightsmile:

I was expecting they'd just all be gay. XD This was funny. Though I kind of feel like I'm missing a piece of information at the end...?
