Description

Pinkie says she’s related as a “fourth cousin twice removed by a fifth cousin,” and this is how it’d look when the blood relations are mapped out. That means Pinkie and AJ were never related by blood, but by marriage.
 
Well, looks like nothing can stop MarbleMac now.

Hey Guys, I’ve been noticing that some fans are very boring and usually whenever someone puts something applepie comes someone “they are cousins” “hurr duur is incest” so to “break it a little” I wanted to explain to you that this besides being annoying it’s lie  
They do not have any blood connections, my people
 
  1. Just the Apple’s 4-degree cousin who may be 5-degree cousin of the pie’s, but this does not affect Pinkie and Applejack at all  
    They do not have any blood connections.
     
  2. The sister of pinkie pie (marble) Has crush in Big mac (brother of Apple) in 2015 several fans support this including Pinkie herself who has been trying to join the two
     
  3. The writers themselves (including nick confalone) support Pinkie’s love relationship with Applejack, and the same said on twitter that you intend to make an episode of them (the same thing they did with rarijack but this time with pinkiejack/applepie) and I fully support it
     
     
    so please, my people, no bullshit, respect the taste of people  
    be it character, shipp etc, just respect everyone, this makes fandom a better place

Even if that is true, what ancestry they share is basically just honorary because they’d STILL not share any actual direct ancestry because Applesauce is still an aunt, not a parent.
 
(And I still think the proper solution to this would have been to join the families via Mac and Marble. Like what Bright Mac and Pear Butter did.)

Weirdo

Thing is, the meaning of “by” in “4th cousin twice removed by a 5th cousin” is unclear.  
The author of this chart seems to have interpreted “by” as “married to”, though I don’t quite see where the 5th cousin fits in here…
 
Personally, I’d say “4th cousin twice removed by a 5th cousin” is just Pinkie being Pinkie rather than an accurate description, but this is the Internet and we have to obsessively over-analyze children’s cartoons here.

Actually, the tree is a bit wrong. Apple Sauce is still blood related to her cousins. Apple Sauce’s G-G-G-grandparent is the same as Pinkie’s dad’s (representing the Pie family) 5G-grandparent by definition of a 4th cousin twice removed (or vice versa, since twice removal does not specify which individual is the earlier generation, but considering Igneous Pie is younger than Apple Sauce, he is the later generation).

What would you call Pinkie Pie’s exact relation to Applejack given that this tree is accurate? Is it 7th cousin 3 times removed, or something else entirely?
