Twilight gets a Puppy
Season 3
By TDR
Apple family Rheita,
Prologue
[Sweet Apple Acres]
“Gesundheit granny.” Twilight offered glancing in the box that she had just floated down from the barn loft, the older mare sneezing up a fit from the dust that billowed out from her attempt to open it.
“Ah knew ah saw that box some where.” Applejack chuckled climbing down the ladder from the loft where she had found it.
The new Apple family barn was a massive affair, dwarfing the farm house it self and even town hall. The newest Ponyville land mark was a gleaming spire made of white crystal with a large section of dome under it that the Apples had walled in and built off of making the massive structure their new barn after the last one was totaled by the arrival of the new one.
Twilight had done everything she could to redirect any questions of her involvement in it's present location.
Applejack had let it slide so long as Twilight got Princess Cadence to let them keep it.
Cadence was a little too busy with the empire to bother to send the number of ponies that would be necessary to recover it, and had already contracted some ponies to rebuild it.
Still, Twilight had gone over it a few dozen times to make sure nothing nasty was still lingering in the towers remains before she felt safe letting them build around it.
“So how are those RSVP's coming Applebloom, Spike?” Granny asked. ”Who's showing their muzzle at the reunion?”
“EVERY PONY!” Applebloom shouted sending letters into the air and getting a sigh from Spike who went back to stacking them up with one arm, his other arm still in a sling.
“Every pony?” Granny blinked.
“Every pony!” Applebloom exclaimed again.
“Yah sure?” Granny questioned.
“Well we have RSVP's from Yonder hill, Hollow Shades, Galloping Gorge, Fillydelphia, Unicorn Range, Appleloosa, Canterlot, Bayston, Wilmingtrot, Baltimare, Vanhoover, Macentosh hills, and Dodge city.” Spike listed. “Heck there's even a couple from Nox-cal in Lion Heart and at least three Apples were found in the Crystal Empire. And they wanna come tah meet their descendants families.”
“And Manehattan! Babs is coming!” Applebloom grinned flinging the letters into the air again much to Spike's annoyance.
Granny stared into space as Applejack and Twilight watched the filly bounce around them and then out the barn door as Spike started picking up the letters again.
“Well it sounds like you have quite a fun time ahead.. or at least a super busy time.” Twilight smiled.
“Don't cha mean we have a busy time ahead?” Applejack smirked.
“What? Isn't this your family reunion? I figured you'd want to deal with it like you do most of your family things.” Twilight shrugged. “I'll be happy to help if you need it though.”
“Oh dun worry girly, yer gonna be in tha thick of it too.” Granny smirked.
“What?” Twilight blinked.
“Well ya are knocking horseshoes with mai grandson and ah expect he ain't sharing yah, so yer pretty much family there, wed yet or not.” Granny offered.
“Ugh, did not need that mental image.” Spike grumbled.
“Me either.” Applejack agreed.
“Don't think yer gitting out of it either youngin. Applebloom's sweet on yah so you'll be helping us set all this up too.” Granny stated gesturing at Applejack. ”Now if ah could git this one tah look at a stallion with a bit more interest ah'll be set”
Applejack rolled her eyes at the 'not in the slightest bit', subtle hint.
“Really?” Spike blinked in surprise before looking at his sister.” This has got to be better than the last Sparkle reunion we went too.”
“Ugh, don't remind me. Uncle Placid Lake kept hitting Rahs with a broom and screaming about him stealing his dentures.” Twilight sighed.
“To be fair, Rahs did steal his hearing aid at the end of it.” Spike grinned.
“Yes, and then you planted it in Aunt Gem's purse where he could spot it. That turned the whole event into one big family brawl.” Twilight grumbled. “You two are the worst...”
“I don't want to hear it little miss 'aim for a elliptical orbit' they had to call the guard to help the family out of the duck pond after you got tired of the screaming while you were trying to read.” Spike pointed out. “ And you're the one who moved his teeth to begin with.”
“He left them on the bathroom counter! It completely disrupted the orderly flow of the sink and cabinet I had set up. I had to rearrange everything in order to get them to be fit and orderly.” Twilight ranted.
Granny stared as the siblings argued, before she leaned over close to Applejack to whisper in her ear.”Is it too late tah change mai mind about invitin them?”
There are times where I actually wish I was proverbial "Fly on the Wall" for these scenes. RL would be PPV worthy
A thousand years and everyone dead are NOT going to stop an Apple Family Reunion for those three!
I wonder if that'll introduce stone crystal back in the equestrian family
...yes
Haha, this is a funny but short chapter; I expected more blushing and outrageous reactions from Twilight though.
I don't know why I'm so ok with this XD
Yes, Granny, you dun goofed.
depedn granny, do you want to see you great great grand kids or not??
Shenanigans abound but I am curious about what happened with shining armor and the letters
Miss "aim for an elliptical orbit" is now my new favorite nickname for an angry Twilight Sparkle. Only problem is, the projectile in question would need some additional thrust after launch in order to raise its periapse.
9738128 That's why it's 'aim for an elliptical orbit' she ain't gonna manage it , but she'll try.
9738139
Then why not shoot for escape velocity? Or is that reserved for when Celestia gets truly pissed?
No, no you can not because one is porking with ur grandson and another is about to do the same with the youngest one in a few years
*dies*

This!
You’re too late.
I can hear Diamond Tiera screams how unfair Apple Bloom's family barn is now more elegant than her house.
Eeyap.
Granny stared as the siblings argued, before she leaned over close to Applejack to whisper in her ear.”Is it too late tah change mai mind about invitin them?”
Yes yes it is
9738128
How about when shes got alicorn powers and teirk smashes the library I'm pretty sure at that point hes ginna be running from a giant pissed spike bleu a supercharged rahas and twilight while shining is on damage control
9739914
Wait, really?!
9739948
Oh yes i recall using that as a kid with fireworks..... Not sure how i still have fingers.
9740084
Heh. Well, besides the fact that I have been drinking something explosive with my coffee, your parents instilled enough caution in you to not be dangerously stupid with those. Parents used to teach their kids this kind of caution back in the day.......
Granny. Ya might have gone and screwed the apple family reunion by inviting the sparkles. They be dangerous folks.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Deep in the dark
He's waiting for you
Finally caught up!
But... now I have to wait for more....
All right, so we got a big one starting up, what do we got?
Well then.... guess just using the installed building material is practical.
Because of course there were Apples up there.
Yes, but seeing as how you are dating Big Mac, Twilight gets an invite too.
Also, Granny....that image.. and the wording..... I'm with Spike on this one.
You mean helping to set up in more ways then being a lighter?
Yes Granny, yes it is. This is gonna be fun!
Also, how are the Sparkles even allowd to have that many of them in the same place? That's just begging for them to reach Critical Mass.
So, looks like more slice of Life fun of Twilight and her bros trying to survive an Apple Family get together. Fun!
What?
Normally I can handle when things are a word or two off, but that just hurts my head.
Yep <ominous evil cackling can be heard>
What delices chaos... Discords future is save for sure...
The Sparkle familie might make the world burn one day

"The Sparkle family looked up with manic grins, before going back to plotting world domination and how to stop it" -Unknown
Biggest chaotic familie reunion with Whites familie not counting in any time period...

Isn't the problem with World domination how busy it keeps one? Celestia bearly holds Equestria together.
Also i player 'Civilisation V' in Hotseat mode 2 player controlled by me with Barbarians activ and that keep me very busy keeping the respective Empires together without activly having War between both factions i controlled.
World domination is a bloody busy work...

Please tell me you mean "busy".
11524937
He means both.
The Sparkle family is sure anything but boring, the Apple family is so big they could create a Apple Mafia if they wanted, ruling the Apple market of Equestria 👍
