[Let me set the atmosphere. I’m alone in a room with papers, charts, maps, and graphs tacked all over the walls; I’m wearing a labcoat, my hair’s all messed up, and I’ve got my glasses on crooked with one of the lenses broken.]
 
Me: “I’ve done it! They called me a crackpot conspiracy theorist, but I know what all these monster-pony sightings and appearances have in common! I know why the frequency of the sightings has been increasing at such an exponential rate too! It’s Badum! It’s always been Badum!”

@Joseph Raszagal  
At least in my continuity most of these creatures come from other countries so they’re not all that common in Equestria so ponies tend to not be familiar with them, and since there’s enough that act like monsters like mimics, nightmares, and batibats (as well as enough genuine threats in their world) ponies tend to by default be untrusting of them. We’re just seeing a surge of them popping up in Equestria due to a variety of factors :D

@Badumsquish  
Makes sense, considering how familiar Twilight is with moths in the world that I’ve started thinking of as the Badum Cinematic Universe.
 
Also, it’s just cute to imagine Twilight having a friendship-themed super sense like Spiderman.

@Background Pony #D6DC  
Twilight is attracted to a budding friendship. She homes in on it like a moth to a lamp XD

Kilanne can cook.. I’m starting to think gmhaa is dating her… Also why was twilight going to see gmhaa?

@Badumsquish  
Scary, terrifying cuddles xD .

@Joseph Raszagal  
She tried. It ended in cuddles :D  

Twilight, you get in there and accept the snek’s hospitality this instant. Eat the damn omelette right now!

@Zgrig  
>:D

Poor Twilight, 2 phobias at the same time.  

 
At least there is no such thing that would trigger ALL of her pho..

Never mind…

@Badumsquish  
It’s my headcanon of your image.

@Zaknel  
No, she’s scared of the snake. I made this before the quesadilla episode aired XD

A colossal snake doesn’t scare her, but cheese does… Radical!

@Phantom Rider  
For Twilight, it’s both XD

@Phantom Rider
 
Cheese

So, is turophobia fear of snakes or fear of cheese?

Twilight: internal horse whinny  
Me: Pfff! I’ve seen freakier thing than this. This, is just a pony’s version of “Dating a Monster Girl” anime. Strange? Maybe, but don’t be afraid of the snake and her cheese.  
Twilight: Looks at me B-but, what if-  
Me: No. We’re going to eat and enjoy. Don’t be scared by weirdness, embrace it.

@Phantom Rider  
:D

Oh god. You did this before the cheesy quesadilla thing? That is just too awesome.

@Background Pony #B604  
Nope, just afraid of snakes:  
 
Imagine how the poor girl feels being greeted by a massive talking half-pony one that is clearly venomous from it’s markings?
 
@Blissey1  
Technically I made this pic before that moment aired ;D

@Background Pony #B604  
I guess you haven’t watched Party Pooped?
 

Is she allergic to cheese

@Dirty Bit  
Pizza pony wasn’t enough. And also, no mentioning in the show.
 
Quesadilla-pony is the only true badum tie-in.
