A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...Ricotta was just the best resolution to the whole thing.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau Project@JT: General consensus is that it's a decent episode, but Applejack's overprotective-ness is pretty much a Base Breaker.
On Applejack's overprotective-ness, I can see why people would be turned off. On the one hand, it's not like she hasn't been overprotective of Apple Bloom before so it makes a bit of sense and admittedly some of it was funny (I kinda got a kick out of the helmet gag). At the same time, her overprotective-ness is reminiscent of her eagerness to make the Apple Family Reunion the best reunion ever and the general opinion of that wasn't all that great. I know Applejack wants the best for her family, but these kinds of episodes tend to give her Twilight-level paranoia, which just doesn't work with her. Also, for a bit of Fridge Logic, she's ridiculously overprotective in this episode, but regularly lets the Cutie Mark Crusaders do whatever they want? More than half the things the CMC do is more dangerous than many of the things Applejack is trying to protect Apple Bloom from.
@Shota: Well, at least they didn't go the "I can relate, so let's be friends" route.

This situation is different than any of the times before. Apple Bloom is growing and the family feels it's finally time for her to look after the house alone. That's a HUGE step for children, especially, if not moreso, for the parents and older family members! The family dynamic is the best thing I love about Applejack in general.
Chimera

AJ in boots will become a thing

The three finest things in life are to splat your enemies, drive them from their turf, and hear their lamentations as their rank falls!Big Mac is DEAAADDDD
I like the moral even more now. There will clearly be consequences for this (grounding), but AJ knows AB can be alone if they every need to go out.

So she's been getting a lot of screen time this season, but you don't think she's going to get much more? Problem solved.
