Ugh, my mistake. But he hadn't when he picked the name.
It's a display to predators. Sort of like the ostentatious tails of the peacock means "Look how much energy I can afford to waste making myself easy to catch, I'm so fit you want my genes." Pronking is the antelope equivalent of T-posing. "I'm so fit I can waste time styling on you. Go find an injured antelope to hunt, it ain't me!"
That was bucking adorable.
One of. I really like how he cut down Klarion on live television.
Oh, my, Pinkie Pie! How.. generous of you! Methinks the song got away from her a little there.July 3rd 2012, 08:38 GMT -7
"Expand on your bucking proclivity
So if you need you can even buck me-."
And even she knows how lewd that one sounded. Heheh.
Hey, it's a drinking song, it's meant to be suggestively bawdy.
If the ladies aren't blushing a little, you haven't sung it loudly enough!No, it's not you, I think. She's just playing dumb to be disarming. It is Pinkie Pie, after all.
...Okay, Pinkie, there's such a thing as taking a joke too far...Don't worry, that sense of existential fear applies to nearly all mascot characters...
Imagine if a Yellow Lantern weaponised the Uncanny Valley like that. Gyah.And she's very perceptive, too. Even without her Pinkie Sense. Man, imagine her with an Indigo Ring (minus the brainwashing setup...)
Don't doubt the Brony's knowledge, girl. Sometimes, you need a little Harmony in your life. Especially at a time like this.
Oh, my, yes. Oh, they don't generally come out and say what they're really singing about, but you can work it out...Hey, now, Pinkie. isn't that a little speciesist?
...With rocks in and everything.
Ah, the joy of a barely-industrial culture. Assuming that everything is passed down on a personal scale.
Yeah, that's a bit of a downer, even if she doesn't know it's all lies. Shame about Vietnam in Renegade's parallel, though...
Ah, Pinkie. Grabbing the wrong end of the stick, and then shaking it all about.
...And that simple question cuts right to the heart of the matter. Damn, Pinkie Pie, you know just what to say sometimes... And honestly, I think what Artemis needs right now is a little Laughter...
Heh, yeah, that would be a bit strange, wouldn't it?
Oh, yeah. Do try not to break the pony by telling her all the things you actually did there, though...
The worst part is, even she doesn't know exactly how long it was. Such is the nature of warped time.
Not quite like missing a loved one, but for a New God... Well...
Honestly, she might be a good one to talk to about this. Even the darker stuff. I doubt her hooves were stainless in that time...
The joy of becoming an institution. No-one can even imagine you being anything but the distant ruler... Which is why the moments she breaks out of that image are the most interesting times she's had...
I wonder if Sunbutt ever thought of taking a break for a couple of centuries? Not from the celestial stuff, she's stuck with that for now. But just step out of the public eye for a while. With Sunset's Alicorn Initiative, she might well get that chance someday...
Oh, boy...
Where to start...And there's the problem. You became the job. To the point that your metaphysique is shaped like it now. Maybe you need to break out of that Ruler mentality...
Yeah, that would be the problem...
I doubt she could even imagine someone like that, or doing something like that...
Yesss... Learn how to play again. How to relax. How to live.
okay but what about Renegade Paula
Except in that timeline he wasn't involved on Jade and took her name. He was involved with Cheetara (who was based on Barbara Ann Minerva according to the wiki), right?
Climbing songs, no. Traveling songs for going long distances on foot, yes. And for rowing, and croppicking. Historically, any physically repetitive group task had songs for it. They just got fell out of use since the industrialization.
Hey, it's a drinking song, it's meant to be suggestively bawdy.
I think she meant her mother is alive, while her father, who's dead, was a murderer.
No, she's a murderer. In the sense that she murdered people. She's never been convicted of murder.
Stuck in the future with the Legion of Super-Heroes.
Cheetah. Not Cheetara. You're confusing her with the one from Thundercats.
Eh, it has certainly worked. But more by 'he got lucky' that out of him making a wise decision.
There were a few railway songs.
It's anapestic tetrameter. The syllables should be in groups of three. Most of the stanzas use a beat of silence before "and" to fill out space, but the last lines of all of the stanzas fill out the first group completely... except the last one.
I mean, I suppose that counts as exercise:
Well said.
