wild mass guess Octavia & Vinyl Scratch are Lyra in disguise. Lyra & Vinyl both being at the wedding reception means Lyra is just really good at magic wild mass guess

Honestly I'm not big into shipping, but I do like seeing some of the uncommon ships from time to time. Lyra/Time Turner, Derpy/Ponet...eh, can't think of much else.

I don't always ship, but when I do, it's with UPS.

The concept of Flutterinkie amuses me.

Pinkie Shy sounds better.

Flutterinkie sounds funnier, though. Pinkie Pie would definitely call that ship Flutterinkie tongue
But they seem to know where they are going, the ones who walk away from Omelas.

Hence...why Flutters future love will be a boisterous outdoorsy type who also loves animals. Probably.

so Fluttershy and a Steve Irwin pony?

@Sereg: Well, that's completely fair enough. I mean, of those three ships one could theoretially work due to them not interacting much(and I'll amdit to liking Twimac myself), one definitely works because it's their most common dynamic, and one would work but not healthily, so there's certainly something to be said for that approach. But yeah, honestly? regardless of how one chooses their ships belieivability comes after the fact. I can say that going based on desires that, say, I ship Pinkie Shy because Pinkie is clearly concerned for Fluttershy's well-being anf Fluttershy appreciates and reciprocates it, but I ultimately don't see it as believable because I believe that Pinkie would tire of Fluttershy or Fluttershy would become exhausted or over-anxious.

Yeah, I can't see that working either. The main problem would be that it would be really hard to work that out without making it sound like a trollfic, because if you're going to disregard her fanon characterization that much, you could literally pick any background pony, and it would look like you chose to redo her for no other reason than to mess with people.

It could work if you made her Discorded.

@Kegi: Understood.

@Sereg: Just to be that guy, I'm not sure Big Macintosh even knew that the doll was Twilight's, and he only licked her while he was under Discord's influence, which isn't really evidence for anything.

I fully admit that the evidence I use to decide what characters want can be incredibly flimsy. I'm all for latching on to incredibly flimsy evidence when there isn't any stronger evidence available.

EDIT: Also, @Blissey: I think that the thread came to the conclusion that Fluttershy/Pony!Steve Irwin would be awesome and I agree.

I LOVE IT! [waii

@ Fluttershy

Her other half should be a great singer too.

I'm generally just plain not big on ships between the mane six.

Unless it's Rarity/her male doppelgänger. Because it's funny and totally fits.
Fanfiction I hate.

Oh, by the way:

This fanfic needs to exist!

EDIT:[up]Ah, Rarity/Elusive. How hilarious and true you are!

@Sereg:... I haven't accidentally offended you have I? It's just that your responses have become rather short, and I associate that with sharpness. Not, if I have offended you, that I'd wish to drag out the conversation, I just want to know because it certainly wasn't my intent at all, nor was it to insult your position on shipping.

Yes, Rarity/'Elusive' works...poor Spike.

@Kegi:[lol] I'm not easy to offend. No, I never came close to being offended. I just think that we've all made our points (right?) and it's after midnight here. I should be going to sleep soon (whether or not I will remains to be seen).

Aaaah. Well yeah, my points are made. Just wanted to be sure, heh. I have a hard time telling, sometimes. At least via text.

Alright then, fanfic time. Big climax chapter of An Earth Pony's Guide to Magic, or chapter 30 of Fallout Equestria?

I personally like the idea of Derpy/Pinkie as a 'ship, partially because I could see Pinkie not being as bothered by Derpy's clumsiness as others might be. I suppose the main problem might be if Pinkie accidentally insulted Derpy too much, since she tends to be Innocently Insensitive, but at the same time, we also don't know how sensitive Derpy is, and I personally can't see Pinkie being truly cruel to somepony over clumsiness or a lazy eye.

Of course, a lot of that would depend on fleshing out Derpy's personality from the little we can tell of it from the Last Round-Up as well, and she could probably be easily written as a character who would get along well with Pinkie since we know so little about her canonically.

I ship Pinkiedash, as everyone knows.

A crossover ship I've picked up recently is Gordon Freeman/Fluttershy.
