I've got some pony ships in my herd. G3 Minty and Pinkie being one of them as shown in my signature photo. :P
I don't get much into the shipping side of FiM because it's a dangerous place to be sometimes with all the...questionable artwork (...) I also kinda ship Rarity and Applejack (they're so cute! Also they're my two faves out of the Mane 6).
Pony Bride and her other friends in her pose are sort of a Mean Girls-ish group, but they only bother the sweetheart sister ponies.
I do have a few regarding G1, some of them dating all the way back to my childhood:
- The City of the Ancients from "The Magic Coins Part 3" used to be more than just the large building where the Emerald Idol was kept, the open area in front of it used to be occupied by wooden architecture that simply didn't survive the test of time;
- The huge skull used as a deathtrap in "The Ghost of Paradise Estate Part 3" belonged to a large mosasaurus-like marine predator that was killed by Squirk;
- During the "The End of Flutter Valley" storyarc, most Flutter Ponies were on vacation and they left the queen and five other ponies in charge (with disastrous results) but they were back by the time of "Bright Lights"
- The reason Baby Cuddles forms such a strong attachment to the buggy in "The Revolt of Paradise Estate" is because there is no regular Cuddles in the series so she just yearns for some sort of maternal figure like the ones that most of other baby ponies have;
- Hydia's husband left one day after going out to get cigarettes because he simply couldn't stand putting up with his horrible wife and daughters anymore;
- The skulls put on display in Grogar's throne room in "The Return of Tambelon" belonged to a human and some sort of sentient bird that dared to stood up to Grogar some time long ago and he decided to make an example of them as a warning to others;
- Patch from "Tales" comes from some alternate fantasy dimension where the "glowing magical ponies" also come from, she had to be abandoned by her real parents and somehow ended up in Ponyland where they found her and put her in an orphanage, that's why she's the only one who can see ghosts and other weird things.
- Secret Surprise Ponies have a split spine that goes around the area under their saddle and then merges again, that's how they can store things in a fleshy sack inside their bodies.
That last one though is a little...ick! lol :P :blink: :shocked:
I have a few, although it's probably a bit bland compared to others.
There's
Rescue Gang
Ordered Online Gang (Order Gang)
Bought IRL Gang (BIP Gang)
Inherited Gang
Most prominent things are
They haven't had a war or anything, they're just a whole bunch of misfits who just seemed to gather in this one place.
A lot of the ponies have had their fair share of trauma and come here to heal, helping each other recover. Only a few have had a happy, healthy life.
They're building a new life for everyone, with everyone.
There's normally a leader then a second command for each gang.
The babies with no parental figures are cared for communally, with Fizzy being the main care taker.
If a pony bonds with a baby, they can adopt them.
Princess Luna is the ruler of the Order Gang but everyone sees her as the unofficial ruler of all the gangs. She's also romantically interested in widowed Shining Armour.
There's also some ponies who're mostly unknown to the others due to undergoing surgery (Transforming baits)
They were all basically magical and gender less, so no love stories. But best friends were common and they interacted with each other more like real horses do. Nuzzling, playing, grooming each other and such. When big brothers came around, they were just the same but with more boyish ways.
Oh, and ponies didn't build dream castle. The stars and moon made it for them or something along those lines.
