knocking
Fletcher: opens the door Oh, hallo Princess. What are you doing here?
Annie: Hi Fletcher! waves along with T and Del
Fletcher: Hallo everyone
Starburst: Well, I was just thinking about our conversation from a few weeks ago. Y’know, the one at Sweet Apple Acres with Candy and Crme and Del
Fletcher: Oh…….. yes. Not one of my more proud moments
Starburst: No, it’s okay. So you said you wanted to try some new things right?
Fletcher: Yes, I would love to
Starburst: Great
Fletcher: So what are we going to do?
Starburst: I’ll….. um…. tell you when we get there. Just put on some comfortable clothes
Fletcher: Okay. Be right back
Fletcher: opens the door Oh, hallo Princess. What are you doing here?
Annie: Hi Fletcher! waves along with T and Del
Fletcher: Hallo everyone
Starburst: Well, I was just thinking about our conversation from a few weeks ago. Y’know, the one at Sweet Apple Acres with Candy and Crme and Del
Fletcher: Oh…….. yes. Not one of my more proud moments
Starburst: No, it’s okay. So you said you wanted to try some new things right?
Fletcher: Yes, I would love to
Starburst: Great
Fletcher: So what are we going to do?
Starburst: I’ll….. um…. tell you when we get there. Just put on some comfortable clothes
Fletcher: Okay. Be right back
Fletcher: So what kind of place is this?
Starburst: It’s a dance studio. Crme reserved it for us
Fletcher: Are we going to……
Annie: Yeah!
Starburst: sighs Yeaaaaaah
Fletcher: I didn’t know you danced
Del: She sure does!
T: And she’s really good too.
Fletcher: Yeah?
Starburst: Yeah. But you can’t tell anyone. It’s a secret of mine.
Fletcher: ………. looks at T, Annie and Del ……um….
Starburst: They’re the only ones that know. Del caught me dancing once and Annie just knows everything somehow. And since Annie knows, T knows.
Fletcher: Ah.
Annie: And Del and I dance too!
Fletcher: Really?
Del: Ever since Ah started coming to Canterlot, Ah’ve been learning a few things about ballroom dancing. And Star’s taught me a few things
Annie: And I’m just able to dance somehow
Starburst: mumbles little mrs. perfect
Fletcher: What about you, T?
T: Oh, no. I’m not very light on my feet.
Fletcher: Ah, I see. So, eh, why are we trying dancing?
Starburst: Well, I’ve been dancing for a long time now and it really helps with guard training in my opinion. The two really aren’t all that different. So I figured, since you’d be really good at being a guard
Fletcher: I’m ready to try anything so let’s start!
Starburst: Great! So what kind of dancing would you like to learn?
Fletcher: Um…. ballroom sounds nice
Starburst: Okay. So for ballroom it’s all about posture. Just like in the guard you stand straight, chest out, shoulders back
Fletcher: follows instructions
Starburst: Good. Now first thing you wanna do is the box step. You literally just step around in a square shape. Annie, Del, you wanna come join?
Annie: Sure!
Starburst: You can too, T.
T: Oh, I’m okay. I’ll just watch
Starburst: Alright then. Here, Fletcher, watch my feet. You go up, to the right, stop, step back and to the left. So up, right, stop. Back, left stop and you start again. Try with me.
Fletcher: Okay. Up, right, stop. Back, left stop. Up, right, stop. Back, left stop. Up, right, stop. Back, left stop
Starburst: Hey you got it.
Fletcher: That’s not so bad
Starburst: Now we can do it together. Del and Annie can you demonstrate?
Annie: opens arms
Del: grabs her hand and waist
T: grows lowly
Annie: T….
T: Sorry
Starburst: Got it?
Fletcher: I think so
Starburst: ‘Kay, so stand up straight again, hold my and put your hand on my waist
Fletcher: Like this?
Starburst: Hand a little lower. Sorry, I’m short
Fletcher: Okay lowers hand
Starburst: blushes Too low!
Fletcher: Sorry, Princess! Sorry!
Starburst: Stand straight!
Fletcher: Yes ma’am!
Starburst: Alright….. Now you do the same box step that we just did. Del? Annie?
Del and Annie: nod and begin dancing
Starburst: See? So you do the opposite of me. Ready?
Fletcher: Mmhm
Starburst: Alright, 5-6
Fletcher: I-I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to step on you! Gah, this is so simple! Why did I
Starburst: Hey, relax. Focus. It’s okay. Most people don’t get if right the first time. Just try again begins counting There you go
Fletcher: smiles So what now?
Starburst: We could try moving around more. It’s the same steps just in different directions. Just follow my lead
Fletcher: Hey, I got it
Starburst: Nice. See, you’re a natural. Wanna try a spin?
Fletcher: Uh, sure.
Starburst: Just lift up your arm
Fletcher: lifts up arm
Starburst: twirls under his arm and gets back into position See? Easy
Annie: Lift me, Del!
Del: lifts Annie up into the air
Fletcher: Whoa. Can we try that?
Starburst: NO!
Fletcher: flinches
Starburst: I mean, I’d rather not. Sorry, I don’t really like being carried
Fletcher: I understand
Starburst: Would you like to try a different kind of dance now?
Fletcher: Sure
Starburst: How do you feel about hip hop?
Fletcher: I’ll try it
Starburst: Alright then. It’s actually one of my favorite types of dance.
Fletcher: Really?
Starburst: Mmhm. There’s a lot more quick, sharp movements which I really like. Hey, T? Can you play the music?
T: Sure thing turns on the music
Starburst: ‘Kay, so here we go………
Del: Are we gonna join them Annie?
Annie: Nah, I can’t do hip hop. Well I could, but I can’t unless someone guides me all the way through it cuz…. y’know…… eyes
Del: Right
Annie: Buuuuuut I did learn this one move from Amber when I went to a party with her last week
Del: Yeah?
Annie: Yep! Check it out! starts twerking by Del
Del: !!!!!!!!!!
T: shoots an evil glare at Del
Del: Not touching! Not touching! I swear!
Annie: giggles I’m just messing with you. Hey do you think they have water anywhere? We should get some for everyone.
Del: Y-yeah. Maybe you and T should go. I’ll just hand around here. as far from you as possible
Annie: Okay! C’mon T!
Starburst: Hey, you’re pretty good at this dance Fletcher. See, you could be a dancer if you need to
Fletcher: Thanks! I actually wouldn’t mind that. I’m having fun.
Starburst: Me too smiles
Annie: Guys! Guys! Guys!
Starburst: What? What’s wrong?
Annie: You won’t believe what T and I found back there in the other room!
Del: What is it?
Annie: There is a pole!
Starburst: ……… are you kidding me?
Annie: Nope! An there was a note for Fletcher! Read it T
T: ……. Do I have to?
Annie: Yeah!
T: sighs It says “Dear Fletcher, I hope you’re having a good time learning how to dance and finding more talents. But just in case that doesn’t work out, I also reserved the pole for you. Have fun! Sincerely, Crme de la Crme.”
Fletcher: !!!
Ah! Thanks!

Result:
Crap, that didn’t work.
Hey, cool your jets! You can’t start them off on something as advanced as sparkles, sunrays and visible sound effects! You gotta work up to it! Start with a simple 1-2-3, like so: http://24.media.tumblr.com/ce7114c1a08bdb8d4eaef9c402e7b396/tumblr_mglc38lHgo1rkbj72o1_400.gif
You gotta do it like this!
They don’t look EQG, though.
Pretend on, then.
I’m going to pretend that was just a poorly executed attempt to be funny, and not a serious response.

Because most scriptwriters can’t into romance?
Thank you for the explanation.
Starburst, Del, Fletcher and everyone in the picture are the humanised OCs of Kilala. Her OCs are also all the offspring of current-gen MLP shippings.
Ambiguity is what makes her characters so much fun to write for. When something is defined, it loses a lot of its enjoyment. Why do you think romantic arcs aren’t usually tied up until the end of a show/season?
The uncertainty, possibilities and thoughts from herself and her fans is what keeps a lot of us interested.
-Lumino
I never said she’s drawing to much humanized offspring, I said the humazied one are starting to feel less connected to the FiM as they go.
Kilala was always based upon her OC offspring, humanised or not. She rarely draws the parents. That’s funny though, because she mostly swaps between Pony and Human on her pictures every time I look at her dA page. I don’t see how she is drawing too much humanised offspring, she always keeps a balance.
I know right lol
Eh, so long as the pone-to-humanized ratio doesn’t drop below 40% I don’t see the issue. Some occasional parent-and-older-kid(s) interaction would be nice, though.
‘Specially in Illusion, Celly & Discord’s case. Tell me that ain’t a household powder keg.
It’s become more a regular slice-of-life anime than anything else, I think.
The problem I haave is they are showing up less and less, and even less in the humanized art, so it’s feeling like it’s less and less pony related.
The canon characters have VERY rarely been central in her art. Sure, Spike, Rarity and Twilight show up from time to time, but most of it is focused on the kids.
-Lumino
I agree. I love the art, I just miss the canon characters.
