In the humble barn at Sweet Apple Acres, friends and family begin to assemble. Today is Applejack and Rainbow Dash’s wedding, and those in attendance expect a somewhat modest and subdued affair, considering the rustic aesthetic and calm surroundings.

Anypony foolish enough to actually believe that has clearly never met Applejack or Rainbow Dash. But it will definitely be a day to remember.

Anypony foolish enough to actually believe that has clearly never met Applejack or Rainbow Dash.

And anyone insane enough to think these two could ever get along as an actual couple has never actually watched the show quite honestly. The series finale never confirmed anything unless shipping is literally the only thing you care about.

I did love the story by the way. Just needed to say it anyway.

So in character for the contest and it says twilight x mane six and yet she’s said to be single here?

Whoops my bad! Added to wrong folder :twilightsheepish:

Edit: Thank you for pointing that out!

I don't care what anybody says, canon or not, this was a neat story.

It's fine if you don't think specific mane 6 pairings are good matches, but you really didn't "need to say it anyway". It's not required of anyone to say what is and isn't "confirmed" especially for a fic that never even claimed the ship to be official canon in the first place.


Regardless of intention, comments like this come off as projecting without providing anything constructive to work with.

A have to admit, the idea of a shipfic where our main couple doesn't show up until about 2/3rd's of the way through is surprisingly brilliant.

Also, I could also point out how expensive it must be to get a suit and a dress for both of them, but this was cute so I'll let it slide.

On a personal note: I don’t particularly subscribe to any Mane 6 x Mane 6 pairing. Yes, their relationships to each other change and develop over the course of the show, that much is true, but no pairing between any two of them feels particularly right. In my opinion, at least. And correct, I’m not asking anyone to buy into any particular canon.

However I do believe the showrunners deliberately wrote the ending the way they did with some ambiguity, as an invitation for the audience to interpret things as they wish. I don’t think anyone will argue that there was at least an implication that things between Applejack and Rainbow Dash went slightly beyond standard friendship. Maybe they’re just roommates, maybe they’re hooking up. We won’t ever know 100%. All this story does is employ a use of Occam’s Razor, and imagine a potential event outside the canon storyline.

Some folks may not like it, but here it is.

Probably the best assessment, heck even "Lil Cheese" could be related to just pinky who named them that in honor of the other party pony, or she's babysitting them, that is the power of speculation paired with creative writing.



And it also means people can avoid coping with the idea that they lost their waifu to Weird Al of all people

Everyone calm the heck down
first off everyone entitled to their opinion and their ability to voice it.
secondly theres alot of relationships out there and one forged by competition isnt too far out there expesh since it was stated how rainbows competitive side has matured from her petty acts the first few seasons.
and to you box regardless of intentions comments like yours come off as condescending and very not love and tolerance
good show cant wait to see what shenanagins happen next year so fricken help me i would never live down wearing silver 2 years in a row

While it's usually a good thing to mediate an argument, there was nothing left to discuss. Mystic sunrise would have commented by now if they felt the need to, and anyone else involved were in agreement, that agreement being that it's up for the audience to assume for themselves after the ending, which includes people in favor of the ship as well as those who are not.

that is what tolerance is, an acceptance of the existence of different views.

If there is anything left to talk about, I recommend taking it to a private conversation, so that we don't bog down the comment section.

Had so much fun reading this! Been a while since I've sank my teeth in some shipping fanfics on this site. Although some words made it a bit hard to visualize due to some terms with me not understanding well but that's ok!! I love learning new words! Some parts made me chuckle, including the note twilight read outloud. I can definitely see both characters doing a racing competition at their wedding not gonna lie, that one got me to giggle a lot thinking about.

I love the idea of them racing to decide! It’s so them. Such a cute fic :twilightsmile:

Sweet and sappy, the best kind
