I believe this is a cherrychanga.

Now that’s what I call “premium content.” :)

Is that some sort of magical girl transformation trinket?

@Drahtknauel
Can’t remember who pointed out that scene to me, but they said that the adorability excused any continuity error or whatever.

It might have been the late(1), great(2) Reality Check (AKA Ralph Haynes Junior) who introduced me to the idea of calling such things “capilurgy”, which is what lead me to to come up with the idea I posted below.
(1) Yes, he died recently.
(2) I shall… agree to disagree with many people on this point. I liked his work.

Always good to see the portfolio of characters expanded!

Always nice to see a happy grazing picture.

Indeed…

Human: Go outside, touch grass.
Pony: Go outside, eat grass.

I think some of those candies may contain ingredients that are not foal friendly.

Yes, the off-chain lightning transactions are completely free from what I’ve seen and done, but on-chain transactions remain relatively expensive and slow.

Should have brought a friend.

@Draco Dei
I hadn’t noticed that with the bindle stick; good idea

Surprisingly short legs in this one. Vaguely reminiscent of a Welsh Corgi. For some reason, I feel like Luna would get a kick out of teasing Celestia about being the “smol one” for once.

Looks more like a squirrel mutated to have no body, just vital organs and a brain in a tail.

Now that you mention it I agree about the inpainting though, despite my PERSONAL method of enjoying AI art leaning more towards going with the errors that people let through (as you just saw).

My headcanon:
End of a “Wing, Jetpack, and Fire-Element* Assisted Run”.
*The Fire-Element was originally added to prevent the jets from burning the tail to ash in a split second, but the energy balance became more efficient when additional flame-magic propulsion was added at the hooves.

Scootaloo is practicing on the ground before prior to attempting even inches-altitude flight with the experimental and finicky device.

She forgot her password and they are teasing her about it.

@Draco Dei
Her tail appears to have gained consciousness as a separate being. It still likes to spend time with her.

Seriously though, this is one of the images worth saving through inpainting.

@Background Pony #71A8
Maybe she founded a satellite sanctuary for Chernobyl descendants?

My headcanon: She would be good at supporting their self-esteem, while also getting them to accept the free vasectomies and tubal ligations the facility offers.

@Background Pony #08CB
That she is!

@Bad Dragon
Yeah, sounds like something Dash would say…

My headcanon:
Rope-dancing is the opposite of lasso-twirling or ribbon-dancing in that the rope spends as much time as possible in contact with the athlete’s body as possible, rather than airborn. This is not to say it is static at all, with every inch usually being in motion. It is an exercise in full-body tactile telekinesis. Most students of the art take months to learn how to extend their tactikinesis a few inches up their fetlocks, and years before they can reliably perform grabs with their rump.

Applejack never realized until decades later she had done anything extraordinary when she adhered her bindle-stick to her shoulder when travelling to her Aunt and Uncle Orange’s house in Manehattan. Now she competes every year. She considers Pinkie Pie to be her true rival in this art. Despite this Pinkie Pie has never won even a small local competition, as, although actually requiring incredible skill, her routines mostly resemble a kitten entangling itself with a length of yarn, rather than the powerful dance-like motions that the judges look for.

My headcanon:
The Bodiless Fox was created as a pet by a rare pre-Unification deep cooperation between Unicorn nobles and Earth Pony biomage contractors. They can not survive in the wild, because, among other reasons, even a minor cold can easily suffocate them on their own mucus since their nasal passages also function as their lungs. They also hop very slowly, and expend a lot of calories per distance moved.

The concept of letting the species die out has been raised more than once throughout the centuries, but the pet-ownership side of the debate has always won out. In the modern era ownership requires a special liscense, ensuring their specialized needs are met. Usually the testing and inspections are rigorous, but the clerk knew about Fluttershy’s accomplishments with animals, and simply filled out the license and hoofed it to her without saying a word. This confused and flustered Fluttershy, but she managed to recover after only a few minutes of “Umm…“ing and hesitant questions.

The dyed muzzle look is Interesting, but if he is sweating like that he should probably put the jacket in the cart.

I see she has been studying the tome “How to Enchant Your Legs”? Not sure what spell she would be using from that while looking at a map…

Or maybe she just has a sore fetlock and is massaging it telekinetically.

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! 🥰
