@Joey: the F&F bros never thought to get any official paperwork done.

@Ace: I forgot about tea. And the CMC were drinking something out of a thermos in Ponyville Confidential. I'm guessing it's hot chocolate (and not coffee like some inexplicably think).

@Joey I'd assume that the Flim Flam Brothers gave back Sweet Apple Acres when the townsponies wouldn't buy their cider. They don't have much use for the property at that point other than to spite the Apples.

Then again, that could make a good reason for them coming back: Saying they still own Sweet Apple Acres.

The deal was witnessed by a town Official, that considered that's legal transferral of property by most frontier societies

The only thing at stake in the bet was the right to sell cider in Ponyville. Without that, the farm wouldn't have been able to remain solvent, forcing the Apples to sell it and move out.

Uh oh...methinks the Apples will have a problem in the future.

@crow: probably not so much now, although it still has hints of it.

Re: Sweet Apple Acres ownership snarl: all Mayor has to do is revoke their ownership on account of previously failing the Food Code and delivering drinkable cider. Anyways I want to see them get strung up by Appleloosans for trying something or other.

Also, just checked the transcript.

The bet was for who could sell cider, not who owned Sweet Apple Acres, though the Apples needed to sell cider to be profitable in the winter, apparently.

Well, it USED to be a frontier town, I guess. I think they're a mite more sophisticated these days, and I don't think there were any hard and fast rules in this case.

[up][up]Cider sales must count for a lot if they couldn't maintain the farm without them.

I'm still picturing AJ siccing her Orange relatives on them as legal attorneys for various reasons. Or Apple Fritter doing that at some point.

@Ed: They do need to make up for losses from the failed Gala, the eaten barn in Swarm, the rebuilt barn that was demolished in Lesson Zero, and Granny's hip operation.

Again, the property wasn't what was at stake in the bet, just the cider rights. The brothers were only going to take over the farm because the Apples needed to sell it, leave, and start over from scratch elsewhere, otherwise they would have run out of money sooner or later.

[up]They do make juice, as seen in Sisterhooves Social. It simply isn't the money maker that the cider is.

Also her constant pairups with Twi, her wild take at Twi's first coming into Ponyville, and the constant moments with her. (FPK, Twi consulting her in it's About Time, their Sherlock and Watson duet in MMMM, and stuff like that.)

Ah good old aunt and uncle orange come to the rescue, Althought I do still go with the popular fan theory that they sexually abused AJ when she stayed with them.

@Joey: Nah, but I like to think they were secretly trying to eliminate her farm-muscle and make her more slender.

Also, the source excerpt of the latest addition to our Les Yay page:

  • Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie get in on this as well.
    • It's usually Twilight that Pinkie Pie goes to for advice, such as in ''Griffon the Brush Off'' and ''A Friend in Deed''.
    • In ''Lesson Zero'', Pinkie Pie nuzzles Twilight towards the end of the episode.
    • Getting Twilight to believe in her Pinkie Sense in ''Feeling Pinkie Keen'' was considered a 'doozie' by Pinkie Pie, so she obviously holds Twilight's opinion in high regard.
    • In the very first episode, Pinkie Pie has a huge reaction to Twilight's arrival. This is usually written off as Pinkie Pie's hyperactivity note . However, she's rather calm (by Pinkie Pie standards) when Cranky Doodle Donkey first arrives in town in ''A Friend in Deed'', meaning Twilight was probably the exception. Love at First Sight perhaps?

@Ace I read a pretty good Twi Pie ship one time, in which Twilight makes a system to send messages back in time with Pinkie Sense. The first message she receives is a date request from Pinkie, and things escalate from there.

@joey Hi, are you new?

Anyway, never heard that theory before.

@Ace All of that "logic" only manages to reinforce my belief that Shipping Goggles are far too powerful if people see those things as romantic in any way. tongue

Out of curiosity, what makes you think that?
