To be fair, Palutena and Celestia are extremely similar personality-wise, though Palutena is far more laid back and prone to cracking a joke. tongue

Palutena and Celestia would probably get along really well.

Yeah, Palutena is more or less a fully realized and fleshed out version of Trollestia.

I've just noticed that I'm not posting that much recently... With upcoming family and holidays, that's not likely to change for a while, either. Oh well.

Anyway, I've been reading a fic where in it, RD basically becomes Scootaloo's adopted big sister/mother, and it got me wondering, what would the main 6 be like as mothers? I think we have talked about this before, but it was a while ago if we did.

@ Cookoo

Probably fantastic mothers tbh.

As I said before, pinkie would probably want a ton of kids. waii

Twilight would be very by the book about everything, and AJ and Fluttershy would probably be quite competant. Rarity would probably do okay; she's good about details and working under stress, but given that she probably doesn't really like kids in general I don't know. Pinkie and RD...it really depends on whether they can buckle down and actually be somewhat serious about the situation.

That's the kind of question that you really wouldn't be able to answer without a lot of context, the largest unknown factor being who their partner is.

Fluttershy - Doting Mother

Applejack - Strict Mother

Rarity - Cougar Mothertongue

Twilight - Not really a mother, more of a Cool Auntie.

Pinkie - Time To Call Child Services Mothertongue

Yes, Rarity is the Hot Mom. I will feel bad for her children.

Twilight is pretty much already a mother. Just to a dragon rather than a pony.

[up] The other half is Twilight.

Pinkie - Time To Call Child Services Mother

That's an odd way of spelling Rainbow Dash.

Honestly if she has sincerely developed from Baby Cakes then I can see Pinkie making a decent (if free-spirited) mother.

@ Mio: Well yeah Child Services will go for training on how to recognise awesome parents by observing one.

I think RD is capable of being a good parent; she just has to learn to prioritize "being a good mother" over "being awesome''. It's possible, athough I'm sure it would be an uphill battle for her.

Also, random Lyra.

Rainbow Dash would force herself to take responsibility and step up, I think. She is the bearer of the Element of Loyalty, after all. There's no way that she would ever willingly let her family down.

Though, once again we are entering that awkward place where I've actually written about this in depth in a fic, and I have to sort out real canon from fic-canon. tongue

As soon as Dashie works out that her awesomeness shall live on through her child, I'm sure she'd be a great parent.tongue

@Badwolf: Does a parent who's primary interaction with the child is that she pays foal support and the father's alimony really count anymore?tongue

@Mio That would be grossly out of character for RD, and you know it. tongue

She doesn't treat any of her friends like that, so why would she treat family like that?

This conversation reminds me of the Pokeparents meme.
