…Did you mean to reply to someone else? I didn’t even MENTION Fluttercord in the comment I left here. It has nothing to do with my comment, at all.
We’ve also got THE ENTIRE SERIES SINCE DISCORD’S INTRODUCTION as further proof of their relationship. Out of all the characters in the series, Fluttershy is the ONLY PONY he refers to as “my dear Fluttershy” NEVER ONCE have you seen or heard him refer to any other character as “my dear”. Out of all the characters in the series, Fluttershy is the only one who was able to get through to him, to make him a better creature, also out of all the other characters in the series, Fluttershy is THE ONLY ONE he listens to. Hell, he doesn’t even listen to Celestia like he does Fluttershy.
He clearly considers himself friends with the other mane six and shown proof that he values his friendship with them on many occasions. so you can’t just say its because “He values his friendship with Fluttershy so he puts up with them.” Hell, he could be considered “Best friends” with Spike and Big Mac with how often we hear of those three playing the equestrian equivalent of DnD together.
And then there’s all the times when Fluttershy has been put in danger and his reactions. When she was kidnapped by the changlings, he was LIVID. When King Sombra attempted to attack Fluttershy his expression when he realized Sombra was targeting her was out of fear for her safety. Yes, it could be argued that it was part of his act but his “act” didn’t truly start until AFTER he was hit by Sombra.
Sombra could of targeted anypony but he choose Fluttershy because he knew that out of ANYPONY THERE that Discord regarded her as “my dear” as he has done just about everytime he has refereed to her, which has HEAVY implications no matter how you look at it.
Hell, their connection can be traced back to his very first introduction, out of all the ponies, Fluttershy was the ONLY ONE he could not convert through underhanded means, this could of sparked an attraction from then but that’s just speculation on my part.
There are so many other things but I’d have to rewatch all the episodes involving discord for further information and lets be honest, you probably didn’t read this whole thing anyways. :/
tl;dr: The entire series is proof of their romantic relationship.
Holiday Lofty: We can say it didn’t totally show up as something in the episode, but we still got the comics, the books, and also a confirmation on Twitter, so yeah … canon Lyrabon: we saw their proposal (in such an adorable way) and a photo of them married, it is impossible to deny that they are a thing Appledash: The implications are clearly there, but there are still other possibilities for them to walk together talking about chores (farm chores … I think) and, Dash putting hes hoof on AJ’s head doesn’t mean anything to me because I’ve seen ponies doing that other times(like the intro) and unlike from Lofty and Holiday there is no confirmation about them, just that “up to interpretation” … so it’s there but it’s not canon (same with Fluttercord)
BUT..the fact that this two are the only canon ships doesnt mean that all the other characters are straight,I mean even Pinkie could be bi or pan,and being married with a stallion
Agreed. I’m not a fan of it, but the implications absolutely exist. But they’re open enough to ignore, not so “heavily implied it may as well be canon”.
tl;dr most shit was implied and this didn’t need to be made even if i agree (with the image, not the description or your other remarks)
@Background Pony #A9FA
that only a tease also dash was only talking about helping and Applejacks part of the montage involve family rainbow dash was nowhere to be seen
@Fee Lynn
So The “so heavily implied it may as well be cannon” scene involving RD and AJ walking in TOGETHER talking about how they work on the farm is just nothing to worry about right?
Edit: Hell, I don’t even ship the two and ship RD with Twilight since they have so much more in common among other things but even I can’t deny the implications of that scene.
@Fee Lynn
Well we have Pound and Pumpkin as siblings and they are different tribes but both lofty and Holiday have different accents and Holiday referred Snap Shutter as “her brother” not “their brother” so they are definitely not sisters.
You were right there til the second sentence the other characters are indetermined.
NOW you could say Fluttershy, Twilight, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie are possibly straight (or definitely not just lesbians) as they’ve all expressed romantic interest in males and males alone Pinkie Pie even having a child and marrying one
