Like Silver Spoon, Diamond Tiara- Being stuck up snobs?
:muffin: Pony- what's with the bubbles?
-
Somebody suggested that the bubbles are supposed to be like bubble wrap, because she works with shipping/mail
-
I would have to assume it represents being "bubbly" (lively, cheerful) since she was originally named Ditzy Doo; But if her association with being a mail carrier is more canon than I realize, then Toralei's suggestion could be a good one, too. If there was an episode of :muffin: Pony with a mail bag, I'd love to know which one it was so I can re-watch it ^^
-
I like the idea that :muffin: Ponies symbol is a nice little nod at G1 Bubbles...
-
Maybe :muffin: Pony farts in the bath a lot?
Diamond Mint. What's all that about?
-
I remember in the Cutie Pox when Twilight opened her book, there were examples of different ponies with cutie marks being forced to act out their talents. One of the ponies had a bubbles cutie mark like :muffin: Pony, and she was snorkling (or scuba diving). So that's what I think :)
I'm confused about the background pony that's pink and has pink and purple dolphins for a cutie mark. Does that mean she likes to work with sea life? Or maybe she has special powers and she can turn into a dolphin! :D

I think that might be Seaswirl, who appears in the Wave 3 Blind Bag set?
Perhaps she can talk to dolphins?
Jem :-)

I am rather curious as to what Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara have as talents, exactly. Obviously their names and Cutie Marks are references to their "high society"-ness, but surely they have to have an actual talent rather than just "is rich and rude."
I think :muffin: Pony's bubbles were a nod to G1 Bubbles, particularly because she was originally a background pony of no significance. Now that she's taken over as a fan-favourite, connecting her mark to an actual talent might be a bit of a stretch.
-
Since she grew up surrounded by posh stuff, maybe Diamond Tiara is really good at appraising jewelery? "THIS is an antique sapphire necklace. Only seven were made in this design. THAT is mass produced costume jewelery. Can't YOU tell?"
Silver Spoon....the obvious answer would be cooking but maybe it's silver spoon= place setting= organizing fancy dinner parties? Like Pinky except with more kinds of forks and less pin-the-tail?

These are great ideas~
-
I don't think the cutie marks are always their professions. I think sometimes their cutie marks reflect their hobbies instead. Maybe Diamond Tiara just likes to dress up in fancy outfits and Silver Spoon likes to attend fancy dinner parties. I think cutie marks have more to do with realizing what you truly love more than anything. That and I think sometimes cutie marks are more symbolic than literal. Maybe the one with the dolphins just likes to swim like a dolphin?
-
For some reason her bubbles felt like a nod to g1 pony Fizzy, who appears in the first series and movie a few times but isn't the sharpest...hmm but Fizzy had (soda?) drinks for symbols...soda's have bubbles!
That's my far-fetched idea :)
-

:lmao: :lmao:
Personally, I like the bubble wrap idea since she's a mail carrier!

Don't worry, that thought occurred to me too! :)

I think Fizzypop is meant to be the successor to Fizzy.

I sort of had the idea that Diamond Tiara might be good at beauty pageants~
what about lemon hearts? any one have an idea what her talent would be? she is by far one of my favorite background ponys :)

I never thought of that. That's another excellent idea!
Lemon Hearts. Good question. The question is, is the "Lemon" part of the name related to her cutie marks at all? "Lemon Hearts" makes me think of candies. Hearts get used a lot to symbolize love but if hers do, for who? She has three, maybe one stands for romantic love, one for family and one for her fellow pony?
-
I just assume that Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon have jewel/silver/whatever cutie marks because their family businesses are to do with those things and they're just content following the family footsteps? I mean their special talent is probably like learning how to be good at running the family jewelry business or something hahaha. I can't think of better cutie marks for snobby rich future jewelry sellers. I think cutie marks sometimes tend to represent the pony as a whole personality and talent and such all bundled up in one.

:muffin: Pony- what's with the bubbles?
I assume Bubble as in.. Bubble Brain. Since she does so many goofy things. I thought for quite awhile they were actually pebbles.

I have that pony in BlindBag size and on her card stands "loves the sea"!

I like that idea- her card says she likes showing her friend how much she loves them- possibly the lemon part just refers to her coat color- she is a rather fantastic shade of yellow.
lol what about cherry spices or pepper dance, I can imagine them having some really silly talents!
-
Cherry Spices sounds like another cooking one to me. Pepper Dance? Salsa is a dish with pepper in it but it's also a style of dance. Maybe she's good at this peppery dance? :D
-
Maybe :muffin: Pony was actually supposed to be a nod to "Bubbles" from the Power Puff Girls? Though, I have thought about her being a nod to Cotton Candy before.
And Lemon Hearts might be a therapist? XD; No, really! Hear me out~ People bring her lemons and she helps them make lemonade...It makes since, sorta. She likes setting people up with their special someponies? That or something to do with candy, maybe.

Cherry Spices is, in fact, a cooking one. She "loves to bake treats! She makes up her own yummy recipes!"
Pepperdance's card says she loves to race and is "always ready for a challenge", so I always assumed she had a spicy or fiery personality. Hence the hot peppers. Then again, maybe she just likes spicy food. *shrugs*
