Thank you for your thoughts! I do appreciate people taking the time to voice how they feel in a calm manner c:
 
I can see where you’re coming from. I won’t pretend her missing a leg is something cute or innocent, because it isn’t - she lost it in a horrific accident and for a time it caused her a lot of pain. That’s sad. It’s natural to wish she hadn’t lost it; I am sure that for a time she wished the same thing.
 
My reasoning for saying she doesn’t need pity NOW is because it happened a long time ago for her, she has come to accept it, and it is just a part of her life and who she is. She doesn’t find it hard to move around without it and her story is not about her disability nor about her suffering.
 
I, too, have a contact who lost part of a limb, and I will admit to taking some inspiration from him when designing Paper Stars’s outlook on her own disability. My friend often tells me strangers ask him if life is hard for him without his right arm. He responds that it isn’t, because he no longer knows life any other way. He just makes the best of what he has and carries on being himself, missing arm and all :)

Hmm, I’m conflicted as well. I’ve seen this OC before and think she’s adorable, but the amputated leg turns the feeling sour for me.
 
Before you assume I have a general distaste for a character being an amputee, know that I have a good friend who is missing his left leg and suffers from an incurable disease that is slowly consuming him through it. He loves to shitpost people in real life and on the internet but at his core he is a really good guy and I drove over 50 miles to make sure he had a good birthday surrounded with friends because we never know when it will be his last.
 
Combined with that feeling, I think my feeling partly stems from the character appearing to be a representative extension of a person in real life instead of a character within the MLP:FiM universe. Even if the universe has shown disabled ponies like in “Trade Ya!” (Season 4, Episode 22), they have never shown ponies with severed limbs. It’s a stark contrast to see.
 
I’m not sure if that’s the sort of answer you’re looking for but I wanted to be forthright about my thoughts because you asked an honest and legitimate question.

HAVE A HAPPY.

Let’s make a club.

Reminds me of the super mario stars

EH-VRY-THING

@Background Pony #ABFC  
Even food and, um, happiness?

@Mellow91
 
i hate everything.

@Background Pony #ABFC  
So you hate amputees because they’re “weird”…

@MoonSugar
 
yes. i hate them.

@Background Pony #C223  
I beg to differ, most I see don’t have any vibrant colours. They’re usually dark blue, shades of grey or black from the majority of images I’ve seen.

@Background Pony #0A28  
That’s pretty much every batpony OC.

what an edgy oc

@MoonSugar  
Indeed, that is quite a reasonable inquiry.

@cupcaketreat  
I asked them a question, I didn’t say they didn’t like the character. When a person says the amputee thing is weird, of course I want to know why.

hoo boy

@MoonSugar  
>person doesn’t like seeing colorful equines being injured/having to live with disabilities  
>must somehow dislike the character behind it  
???

It looks like all the stars are just leaking out… still looks nice btw.

@Dragonpone  
This crossed my head 2. Kirby 64 (the only one I played lol)

@Background Pony #ABFC  
Why? Do you have a problem with amputees?

she’s cute and stuff but the whole amputated leg thing is really weird.
