Hoping to help the process along, Granny Smith hires the best matchmaker in Equestria to pair her two oldest grandchildren with their potential new mate. Her plan is flawless...except for all the flaws.

Happy Valentine's Day! :heart::heart:

Good setup. Let the meddling begin!

Well, I can't wait to see more from this! But I'm not so sure as to the OC tag, though...not that it's a bad thing, but, as a rule of thumb I am generally wary of them. As long as it's not a self-insert, then I'll be fine.

2122238 Haha, I understand EXACTLY how you feel, and normally, I wouldn't put an OC as a tag. Except that the matchmaker plays a big part, so I really felt I should tag it. I try to only use OC's when I need them as a catalyst for the story, because I REALLY don't want to make a Mary Sue.

oh this sounds fun!!! but if they're same sex pairings i'm out of here like a hen with a fox after her. i have nothing against people who like those pairings, i just really don't like them.

seriously. i'll follow but if you pair them up with same sex, i'm out! :unsuresweetie:

Oooohohohoho. This looks fuuuuuun :pinkiehappy:

And Apple Bloom? She ain't setting you up... yet.

:applecry:

My goodness, the smile on my face is quite exquisitely large at the moment. This will be a tale for the ages, and I can see it now!

....

That was if my glasses weren't so steamed up. No reason. ANYWAYS!

This tale will be one to follow, good day to you!

Well. This is tickling me in all the right places.

I have my ships, I don't know if you'll be adhering to them, but should be a fun enough ride. I must say, Granny Smith was being such a typical grandmother in this chapter. Who hasn't had a similar conversation? You just cant win against grandmothers. Small suggestion, maybe remove the soarin tag until you actually involve him. Ruined just a little bit of the fun. Cause now I'm guessing he's gonna be shipped.

I vote for TwixMac. She'd be best suited for helping out. Do a bit of studying and she'll be a pro in no time, might even be able to find some ways to help improve upon them too. I mean, she lives in a tree with a dragon. One that could easily set the place ablaze but never has. That has to be worth something.

:eeyup::heart::twilightsmile:

2126478 I think I'll do that next time. I actually never thought about that - not adding tags until I involved said tag. Thanks! And good that she sounded like a grandmother, seeing how after I wrote it and re-read it, she reminded me of my father -_-

Oh god I can;t wait to see where this is going. I can'yt decide if heart throb sounds more like The matchmaker from Mulan or the wedding decorater from the father of the bride series. Can't wait to see what you've come up with:pinkiehappy:

2126866 not a big fan of twimac,not really a fan of any BM ships,i vote for appledash all the same :rainbowderp::heart::ajbemused:

You do realize that with a AppleDash pairing there won't be any foals to be had, right? Granny is looking for foals for a reason. To know that when she passes on, when Applejack and Big Mac get old like her, there would be an Apple to carry on and take care of the farm.

2126935 i said my part. i don't like same sex ships, i meant it, if you DO use them, i'll walk right out of this page.
although, the idea for the first chapter is hilarious to me. if you DO use same sex ship. may i have permission to do something similar? not exactly the same but something similar.

2131548 I'm a little confused as to why you would come back onto my comment page to denounce same-sex ships twice. If you don't like to read them, that's fine, but you're making me feel REALLY uncomfortable by making a big deal about something that has not yet been confirmed or denied. If you don't want to be surprised by a ship, don't get invested in a story that doesn't outright state the ship. I have my preferred ships, and I'm extremely picky about stories that I read for that reason. I'm just saying, there are other options aside from telling someone you're "walking" if you don't like their ships.

And in answer to your question, SHOULD this story end up having same sex ships in it (and I neither confirm nor deny it, because, as I've mentioned, IT'S THE FIRST CHAPTER), my answer is "no". I haven't even gotten into the story yet, and this kind of questioning just makes me feel uncomfortable and rushed, and like I'm basically giving away a story idea before I even started editing the second chapter. Please have patience, keep the drama down, and if we could all keep the "shipping" drama at bay, I would appreciate it. I really, REALLY hate conflict, and I'm not writing a story in order to create any type of conflict. There are tons of ships in this fandom - few people ship them all! There's no need to get into shipping wars. I quite literally haven't gotten into the story, yet.

2130092 of course,granny smith is looking for great grandkids,and appledash can't fulfill that request,little something called "CONFLICT" mate

Defiantly sounds like a fun story cant wait to see more! :pinkiehappy:

Oh I didn't realize! Thank you for pointing out my blatant stupidity and ignorance because I obviously wouldn't have figured that out myself. I mean, how was I supposed to draw up that conclusion? Thank goodness we have people like you around to point out stuff like that.

2132045>>2131793
Alright, calm down, you too, please? :heart: the story has barely started >_<

2132045 No,Thank you for being a jerk for no absolute reason

You have my interest. Proceed with the writing... :eeyup:

As for shipping, my only OTP is OctaviaScratch,so I should be safe.
Of course if you plan on dragging this out there'll be a whole fleet of ships in here...

If you try to hook up Big Mac and Tavi I will be forced to.... stop reading! Take that!
I might forgive AppleTavi. MIGHT.

2133522 heehee, no I don't plan to drag it out, but it might take a chapter longer than I thought. And I've never actually written Tavi or Octi, so you're safe because I'm still not sure how I would portray them ^_~
