A disconnected collective of amateur artists and writers that are fans of ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]''. Taking fandom into their own hands they take their own original characters or different interpretations of characters from the show and answer questions asked by internet dwellers in the [[Tumblr]] format. Some are Safe for work, some are not, some are high quality, others are funny, and some leave much to be desired. Nevertheless, they are all about pony and what the fans can do with them.
[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1njTTTPv1Of4yHd6igFCNCB9JyXOhH4IHENwnt55zIWc/edit Here is a comprehensive list of every single ask a pony blog.]{{Dead link}} Enjoy, and remember, they're hit or miss.
== Blog List ==
Line 8:
* [http://askoctavia.tumblr.com/ Ask Octavia] - Probably one of the longest-running of the blogs listed here (at over 40 pages); focuses on fan-favorite music pony Octavia. Loosely based on ''[[The Vinyl Scratch Tapes]]'', featuring frequent appearances from DJ Pon3, Tavi's bandmates, and Pinkie (who is her cousin here).
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20131023152202/http://askprincessmolestia.tumblr.com/ Ask Princess Molestia (and Gamer Luna)] - If "Ask Octavia" is the longest-running blog, then this one is the most (in)famous. Run by Brony community artist superstar [http://johnjoseco.deviantart.com/ John Joseco], it follows the gag-a-day exploits of a very, ''very'' [[Anything That Moves|promiscuous]], lilac-maned version of Princess Celestia. Recently, the blog has been extended to include her sister Luna, who here is a spirited gamer.
* Ask Pinkamina Diane Pie - Based on the infamous fanfic ''[[Cupcakes]]'', this blog pretty much started the whole Grimdark Pony blog subset, which eventually grew to encompass most of the show's cast. Although it was closed down a while ago, it has been resurrected under the same name as a partial archive. [[Not Safe for Work|NSFW]].
* Ask Lil' Miss Rarity - Rarity's cat Opalescence scratches her face, and Rarity discovers her masochistic side. [[It Got Worse|It doesn't get any better from there]]. Another one of the major influences on the grimdark Ask Pony blog subset. Very, ''very'' [[Not Safe for Work|NSFW]].
* [http://askwhirlyandthenightguards.tumblr.com/ Ask Whirly and the Night Guards] - A blog featuring three ''very'' popular pegasusOCs: Whirly Willow, a Canterlot fashion designer, and Adam "Wrath" and West "Vengeance", two members of Equestria's [[Badass Army|Night Guard]]. At times both funny and dramatic, it tries to explain some of the intricacies of the Equestrian military structure. It also has a sort developing backstory plot. It features top-notch artwork by genius brony artist [https://web.archive.org/web/20120317195041/http://puzzle-of-life.deviantart.com/ Puzzle-Of-Life] (seriously, just ''look'' at that gallery).
* [http://askaquilinus.tumblr.com/ Ask Aquilinus]: Follows the life of Aquilinus, Chief officer of Celestia's personal guard. Similar to Whirly, it is sometimes hilarious, sometimes dramatic; one day focusing on Aquilinus' exploits as a [[Casanova]], and another giving a detailed history of the clan-oriented military, and how his family fits in.
* [http://askthenightguards.tumblr.com/ Ask the Night Guards/Friendship is Top Secret]: A blog which features two ''different'' night guards (though with similar names: Adamant and Westwood). Unlike the above, these two are Desk Jockeys, in charge the Royal Library. They oversee classified and declassified documents alike, ranging from the mundane to [[Tomes of Eldritch Lore]]. Functions as an extended [[Grand Unifying Guesses|Grand Unifying Guess]], attempting to unite previous generations of MLP and depicting Equestria as a world built atop the ruins of human civilization.
Line 18:
* [http://askfluttershyandpinkiepie.tumblr.com/ Ask Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie] - A very adorable, well-loved comic with a fair amount of playful, light shipping.
* [http://carrot-tops-garden.tumblr.com/ Carrot Top's Garden] - One of the more popular Carrot Top blogs full of your usual zany Carrot & Derpy goofiness, Carrot's attempts to outsell Applejack, and even some heartwarming fanon building.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20130815010459/http://ask-misty-wonderbolt.tumblr.com/ Ask Misty the Wonderbolt] - One of the first Wonderbolts [[OC Stand
* [http://ask-echo-wonderbolt.tumblr.com/ Ask Echo the Wonderbolt] - Another Wonderbolts [[OC Stand
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20131025223821/http://asksurprise.tumblr.com/ Ask Surprise] - ''Another'' Wonderbolts [[OC Stand
* [http://askthemanesix.tumblr.com/ Ask The Mane Six] - Human versions of the Mane Six. OK, this is shameless plug for a [[One of Us|local troper]], but [[Tropers/Mousa The 14|Mousa The 14]] gets extra points for going against the grain with his depictions like [[Big Beautiful Woman|chubby Pinkie Pie]].
* [http://askabishonenpony.tumblr.com/ Ask a Bishonen Pony/My Little Bishonen] - Similar to the above, but features human genderbent versions of the Mane Six.
Line 28:
* [http://asksmartybelle.tumblr.com/ Ask Smarty Belle] - Drawn by [http://megasweet.deviantart.com/ Megasweet] (one of major artists in the pony community, and originator of the "Ponyshrug" meme), this blog depicts Sweetie Belle as a young ditz with delusions of brilliance.
* [http://askicepack.tumblr.com/ Ask Ice Pack] - Despite being an ask blog about a male Zebra prostitute, this blog offers a unique experience while keeping the NSFW only implied, and hilarious 100%.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20130808110506/http://ask-dj-p0n3.tumblr.com/ Currently Recording / Ask DJ-P0N3] - contains frequent trade-offs with Ask Octavia, expanding on the relationship of the two characters as well as DJ-P0N3/Vinyl Scratch's personality and back story. Run by Brony celebrity artist [http://dreatos.deviantart.com/ Dreatos].
* [http://askdiscordwhooves.tumblr.com/ Ask Discord Whooves] - As the title says, it features Dr. Whooves (a version of [[The Nth Doctor|12th Doctor]]) as a bitter coward and shameless womanizer after his discording. Both an interesting character study and a gag-a-strip blog. One of few with an overarching plot, and excellent art to boot.
* [http://ask-grimdark-bigmac.tumblr.com/ Ask Grim Dark Big Mac] - A parody of grim dark blogs, with a very adorkable Big Mac.
* [http://askmlcblobs.tumblr.com/ Ask My Little Chubbies] - Rather than being about a character, this blog is about "bwob" versions of the ponies - Super-Deformed, [[Up to Eleven]]. [[Cuteness Overload|May cause heart attacks from adorable-ness.]]
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20130907231323/http://askplushderpy.tumblr.com/ Ask Plushies] - A blog featuring plushie versions of Fluttershy, Derpy, Dinky, and Applejack, as well as chubbies of Lyra and Bon-Bon and occasional guest spots from plushies of [[Sluggy Freelance|Kiki and Bun-Bun]]. A friendly take on "ponies in the real world" (Lyra, Bon-Bon, and Dinky all came in the mail), with frequent lampshading on their plush natures.
** Recently, following the creator acquiring chubbies of the Mane Six and Derpy, the Chubbies have [https://web.archive.org/web/20120725090004/http://chubbietime.tumblr.com/ acquired their own Tumblr] (containing polymer clay sculptures of said chubbies).
* [http://askthetimemaster.tumblr.com/ Ask The Master] - A companion blog to Discord Whooves, drawn by the same artist but with a different, unidentified writer, focusing on the Doctor's fellow Time Pony and greatest rival. Considerably saucier than its counterpart, its art and story are just as impressive, and its overarching plot intersects with at least 2 other blogs.
* [http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/ Moonstuck] - A [[Homestuck]] parody featuring Princess [[Fan Nickname|Woona]] (filly Luna) going on an epic adventure on the moon. Made by another very famous Brony artist, [https://web.archive.org/web/20130317201619/http://egophiliac.deviantart.com/art/atg-sleeping-the-years-away-256764577 Egophiliac]. She's the one you have to thank for the "ponies-in-socks" meme. [[Moonstuck|Now has its own page!]]
* [http://askmeaniebelle.tumblr.com/ Ask Meanie Belle] - An ask blog that parodies the common Grim Dark takes on characters in the show, by presenting Sweetie Belle trying to be mean, but isn't very good at it. Done by [[Femmegasm]] artist, Robbie Allen. Also noteworth is that unlike Femmegasm, Meanie is completely child friendly, NO MATTER WHAT SHE GETS ASKED. Leading some creative and hilarious answers (ie when asked about BDSM, Meanie Belle thought the asker was referring to a cartoon show called Beautiful Darling Super Mare).
* [http://askstalkerloo.tumblr.com/ Ask Stalkerloo] - A popular ask blog about Scootaloo being a spy/stalker. Manages to be adorable despite the concept. Worth noting as having some of the best and most beautiful artwork seen in an ask a pony blog.
Line 42:
* [[Dan Vs.]] [http://dan-vs-fim.tumblr.com/ FiM] - Self-explanatory. It's not run by any of the shows' artists, but it sure looks like it!
* Ask Futashy - Featuring a [[Hermaphrodite|Futa]] [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|version of Fluttershy]]. Despite being '''heavily''' NSFW and loaded with [[Fetish Fuel]], it actually manages to be quite adorable.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20130806105608/http://askipsywitchpony.tumblr.com/ Ask Ipsywitch] - Generally pretty innocent (If not a little dark) blog about an OC pony named Ipsywitch that recently moved to a hellish Ponyville to practice black magic. She's normally innocent and friendly, but can be rather scary and mischievous when she wants to be.
* [http://askhotbloodedpinkie.tumblr.com/ Ask Hotblooded Pinkie Pie] - featuring an extremely GAR Pinkie Pie who drinks burning beer and fistfights tornados, among many other acts of pure hotbloodedness. [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|WHO THE HAY DO YOU THINK SHE IS?!]]
* [http://ask-dr-adorable.tumblr.com/ Dr. Adorable's Ask-Along Blog] Mixing MLP and [https://web.archive.org/web/20081121223703/http://www.drhorrible.com/linernotes.html Dr. Horrible] this blog feature Fluttershy as the eponymous Dr Adorable, following her descent into [[Harmless Villain|evil]] as a result of her childhood experiences. Every bit as adorable (she even has a Ph.D.) as the name suggest.
* [http://askterry.tumblr.com/ Ask Terry] - derived from a rather absurd [http://www.ponibooru.org/post/view/131034 parody]{{Dead link}} of the (often considered badly made) official MLP:[[Fi M]] comics, where Rainbow Dash is racist, Twilight is a princess and Applejack is [[The Unfavorite]], while Terry (actually Scootaloo) has to foil the evil plans of king Zebra (actually Zecora in Spike's hat). As the author puts it, "All the ponies are horrible. You have been warned."
* Ask Klodette - A voyeur pony who travels Equestria taking naughty pictures of everypony, including the Mane 6. Very NSFW, but adorable in a weird way.
* Ask Jappleack - A blog based on the [[PONY.MOV|.MOV]] series's Applejack character. She talks smack to the other Ask Blogs and also follows a semi-tangible connection with the .MOV series. Somewhat NSFW. It actually preceded APPLES.MOV.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20131105075332/http://advicerarity.tumblr.com/ Advice Rarity/The Best Possible Blog] - A departure from regular ask blogs, in that fans ask for fashion advice rather than drawn responses. Despite being a text-based blog, it manages to be very in-character and downright hilarious at times. Not to mention, [[Shown Their Work|the mod has clearly done their research]] and each answer is well thought out.
* [http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/ Discorderly Conduct / A Dash Of Chaos]: A recently-opened Discord blog. Has ''very'' good art, an experienced artist, and is a bit more in-character, with Discord being his funny-but-cruel-and-sociopathic self from the show. Updates are very frequent. Occasionally, other MLP villains show up, from the recent [https://web.archive.org/web/20130920233104/http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/21566911691/discord-is-best-queen Queen Chrysalis] to G1's [https://web.archive.org/web/20130921015605/http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/22383103622/nothing Grogar].
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20130808173357/http://askhumanluna.tumblr.com/ Ask Human Luna]: One of the oldest of the old. Features some lovely art by the prolific Brony artist [https://web.archive.org/web/20130809034201/http://7nights.tumblr.com/ 7Nights], and seems to have an overarching plot about the origins of Nightmare Moon and Discord (of all people) trying to save Luna. Became SFW about midway through.
* [http://raindropsanswers.tumblr.com/ Raindrops Answers]: A cute blog focusing on Derpy's [[Palette Swap]] friend Raindrops. Adorable and a [[Trademark Favorite Food|loaf of bread]], what more can you ask for?
* [http://asktheflowertrio.tumblr.com/ Ask the Flower Trio]: Focuses on Daisy, Lily, and Roseluck. Another blog with a cute artstyle, it also goes out of its way to flesh out the personalities of the Flower Trio beyond "get scared of mundane things". Rose has also grown out her mane.
* [http://noirdash.tumblr.com/ Noir Dash] An AU blog focusing on humanized versions of the cast in a [[Film Noir]] setting. The story is interactive, so think Moonstuck if it took itself more seriously. Features excellent, stylized art, good writing, and Rainbow Dash as a [[Private Detective]]. What more could you want?
* [http://cupidite.tumblr.com/ Cupidite / Sorry To Burst Your Bubble]: The Queen Chrysalis tumblr blog we've all been waiting for. Features some ''gorgeous'' artwork, a sort of sub-plot dealing with Chrysalis' origins ( {{spoiler|she ''might'' be that unicorn princess of old who [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2/E17 Hearts and Hooves Day|drank the love poison]]}}) and a frequent update schedule. Usually collaborates with [https://web.archive.org/web/20130921010319/http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/22633136399/cupidite-discord-penciled-by-my-bff Discorderly Conduct] (so you know [[Belligerent Sexual Tension|what]] [[Hilarity Ensues|to expect]]).
* [http://askkingmetamorphosis.tumblr.com Ask King Metamorphosis]: An ask blog by voice actor Victor Frost of [http://www.gentlecolts.org/ Gentlecolt Collaborations] (the guy who blew you away with [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMrq4bzYfjA&feature=channel&list=UL this]), where the character [[Badass Baritone|responds by audio]]. This one features the husband of Queen Chrysalis, who is hopping on the "Ask" bandwagon in an effort to gain the favor of the peoples. His answers are sometimes short, sometimes long, but always with the appropriate [[Mood Motif|mood music]]. [[Audio Erotica|As could be expected]], despite starting recently he already has to deal with [http://askkingmetamorphosis.tumblr.com/post/23665480213/episode-6-en-masse-cue-music-philosophorum fangirls]{{Dead link}}.
** On that note, there is also [https://web.archive.org/web/20131004000006/http://askwildcard.tumblr.com/ Ask Wild Card], an audio ask blog focusing on the titular OC and his gang of bandits the Crimson Saddles. Very well acted and written, and blends Equestria and the Wild West quite nicely. Bonus: the mod also runs another audio ask blog, [http://shiningarmorreports.tumblr.com/ Shining Armor Reports.]
* [http://moon-fall.tumblr.com/ Moonfall]: A story and character-driven blog about the origins of Celestia and Luna. If you want to see exceptional art, an interesting [[Myth Arc]] / [[Origin Story]], and copious amounts of [http://moon-fall.tumblr.com/post/19935499150/action-ponies-now-complete-with-brushable-mane-and baby Luna adorableness], this one's for you!
* [http://ask-thecrusaders.tumblr.com/ Ask the Crusaders] (Temporarily renamed Ask Sweetie Belle! (For now)) - A Cutie Mark Crusader blog that started out with the CMC making a tumblr account to earn their Cutie Marks. It features artwork that's indistinguishable from the show, and that's not even [https://web.archive.org/web/20130129003823/http://ask-thecrusaders.tumblr.com/post/19564454583/full-hd-youtube-version-here-click-on-1080p the best part].
* [http://equestrian-as-apple-pie.tumblr.com/ Hay Days / Equestrian As Apple Pie]{{Dead link}}: Recently started Granny Smith Ask blog. Since it's made by the people behind [http://cupidite.tumblr.com/ Cupidite] and [http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/ Discorderly Conduct], we won't even wait to see if it's good.
Line 80:
* [[April Fools' Day]]: For 2012, Egophiliac celebrated by posting that Moonstuck had become too epic for her and announced a new project: [http://averagewoona.tumblr.com/ Average Woona Adventures.]
** Not to mention Discorded Whooves' [http://askdiscordwhooves.tumblr.com/post/20268321824/interesting re][http://askdiscordwhooves.tumblr.com/post/20274608034/there-need-to-be-a-lot-of-changes-around-here gener][http://askdiscordwhooves.tumblr.com/post/20308745492/thats-it-no-more-butter-tea-before-bed ation].

* [[Art Evolution]]: Some of the longer lasting blogs have noticeably improved in the art department. Compare this [http://askoctavia.tumblr.com/post/7388226329 early post]{{Dead link}} from Ask Octavia to [https://web.archive.org/web/20130303164850/http://askoctavia.tumblr.com/post/14656703986/sorry-for-the-delays-and-dragging-this-on-im this post] 6 months later.
* [[Actor Allusion|Artist Allusion]]
** In Ask the Pie Sisters, Blinkie [http://askthepiesisters.tumblr.com/post/10893259081 mentions having a pet spider] when she was younger. This is a reference to a piece of [http://atlur.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=24#/d45pfu0 fanart] Atlur did before starting the blog.
Line 88:
* [[Ax Crazy]]: Pinkie Pie in the now dead Ask Pinkamena Diane Pie and Rarity in the currently ongoing Ask Lil' Miss Rarity and Ask Sadistic Rarity.
** The new ''Miss'' Pinkamena that popped up to replace the old one is not ''quite'' as violent as her predecessor (she actually takes prisoners, for one thing), but she's still quite fond of her [[Knife Nut|blade]]...
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: [[Daring Do]] answers questions when she isn't adventuring...[https://web.archive.org/web/20120726064606/http://ask-daring-do.tumblr.com/post/17417850965/im-a-professor-at-pranceton-university or teaching at Pranceton University!]
* [[Bishonen]]: [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Ask a Bishonen Pony/My Little Bishonen]] is this. And [[Fan Service]].
* [[Boys Love Genre]]: Ask Hoops and Dumbell.
Line 94:
** [[Word of God]] states that it might end up more along the lines of Rebuild The Cutie, depending on the direction things end up going.
* [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]: Most Ask a Pony blogs seem to employ this by having the character explain why they decided to get a Tumblr. Some go the extra mile by having characters say they speak to off-screen cameras that follow them around.
** And then there's [http://askhumanvinylandderpy.tumblr.com/ Ask Human Vinyl and Derpy]{{Dead link}}, an Ask Blog which features Vinyl Scratch trying to figure out how she and Derpy can get more followers.
* [[But Your Wings Are Beautiful]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130806105808/http://twilightunbound.tumblr.com/ Werelight Shine] [http://twilightunbound.tumblr.com/post/23919465677tries to hide her beast form from]{{Dead link}} her date to the prom and her hood slips off.

* [[Cerebus Retcon]]:
** At first, [[Hot-Blooded]] Pinkie [https://web.archive.org/web/20130125135207/http://askhotbloodedpinkie.tumblr.com/post/20275810403/ill-just-ill-just-get-a-new-earth-no-big destroying the Earth on accident] is somewhat funny, given the series over the top nature. [https://web.archive.org/web/20130125134811/http://askhotbloodedpinkie.tumblr.com/post/20297747619/my-courage-its-dead Then we see the aftermath.]
** A cross-blog example, in Discordly Conduct we find out how Discord lost one of his teeth: He went back in time for Prom and kicked his younger self, [[Kick the Dog|who had just been humiliated in front of his peers, in the face]], in a rather [http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/23717953038/pony-prom-part-1 hilarious and over the top fashion]{{Dead link}}.

* [[Character Blog]]: ....Kinda the point.
* [[Clock Punk]]: [http://askclockwisewhooves.tumblr.com/ Clockwise Whooves]. Ponies, [[Doctor Who]], and [[Clock Punk]] in one blog! And it looks nice too.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Pinkie (usually) [https://web.archive.org/web/20130121090006/http://tellscrewball.tumblr.com/ Screwball] and Surprise, for starters. Derpy is often cast in this role as well.
** [http://askstonedtrixie.tumblr.com/ Ask Stoned Trixie] comes off as this due to...[[Captain Obvious|you know.]]
* [[Cold-Blooded Torture]]: One of Pinkamena's hobbies.
* [[Costume Porn]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20131208213914/http://ladyderpysphotos.tumblr.com/ Derpy's Photo Shoot], a blog featuring Derpy as Photo Finish's new model, occasionally uses this trope.
* [[Creepy Child]]: Scootaloo from Ask Pinkamena ''in spades''.
** Also the one from Ask Stalkerloo, but to a much lesser extent. (Read: she's harmless.)
Line 110:
** It has gotten to the point where it is basically a [[Shared Universe]], which is doubly funny considering how wildly the art styles vary and how many characters have multiple blogs (which also have crossed over with one another).
** The general opinion (postulated by various versions of [[Doctor Who|Doctor Whooves]]) seems to be that the Ponyverse itself is shattered to pieces, containing multiple versions of the same characters. Suddenly, those scenes in the show where you see the same background pony more than once [[Fridge Brilliance|make a lot more sense]].
* [[Cuteness Overload]]: [http://askrubypinch.tumblr.com Ruby Pinch] and [[Ridiculously Cute Critter|Chubbies]] carry the risk of causing this trope a lot. [https://web.archive.org/web/20130311225326/http://askmlcblobs.tumblr.com/post/22956870974 And yes, they HAVE been sued for] [http://askrubypinch.tumblr.com/post/12989838287/pinchy-maid-2 causing heart attacks.]
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: There's a Grimdark version of each of the Mane Six, and then some.
* [[Depraved Bisexual]]: Molestia will molest ''anypony'', even her cousin, the chubbies, and own sister. Not even [[Daring Do]], a ''fictional'' fictional character, is safe.
Line 116:
** Both Discord Whooves and The Master also fit the bill, though the latter tends to be considerably more...forceful about it.
* [[Easter Egg]]: The Ask Loony Loona blog had a few secret messages in her posts hidden quite ingeniously. {{spoiler|They can usually be seen by dragging the images over the black or white areas.}}
* [[Eldritch Abomination]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130901231505/http://askeldritchdiscord.tumblr.com/ Ask Eldritch Discord], [[Captain Obvious|Duh]].
** Loona from Loonadventure (formerly, Ask Loony Loona).
* [[Emo Teen]]: Rarity comes off as one in Ask Sadistic Rarity.
Line 125:
* [[Friendly Rivalry]]:
** Carrot Top & Applejack in Carrot Top's Garden.
** Ask Octavia says she has one with [http://askoctavia.tumblr.com/post/8968410741/im-not-dead-really Lyra]{{Dead link}}. They once had a [https://web.archive.org/web/20111028133741/http://askoctavia.tumblr.com/post/11885473094 standing contest].
* [[From Nobody to Nightmare]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20121115085219/http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/22899699896/late-bloomer Discord], though this also seems to be the case for Tirac and Grogar.
* [[Gag Boobs]]: Became a [[Running Gag]] with [[It Makes Sense in Context|Misty the Wonderbolt]]
** [http://askabishonenpony.tumblr.com/post/14167320261/applejack-and-i-guess-applebud-aint-a-bishonen Big Paula Red], genderbent Big Mac in Ask a Bishonen Pony. [[Ms. Fanservice|GOOD GOD!]]
* [[Handicapped Badass]]: Echo Fleetfoot - a ''blind'' Wonderbolt!
* [[Hooker with a Heart of Gold]]: The OC Ice Pack definitely qualifies, as evidenced by his [https://web.archive.org/web/20120707164700/http://www.ponibooru.org/post/view/81547 handling of Applebloom].
* [[Hot-Blooded]]: [http://askhotbloodedpinkie.tumblr.com/ Ask Hot Blooded Pinkie], [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|naturally]].
* [[Idiot Ball]]: In-Universe, anyone who signed up for the Vocational Death Cruise -- a "cruise" with numerous mentions of death in the name, locales, and invitation, hosted by Santalestia, a [[Bad Santa]] version of Celestia who gave out lumps of foal meat instead of coal. Lampshaded by one of the Rarity blogs, which highlighted all the mentions of "death" in the invitation and declined by saying "A lady is not stupid."
* [[I'm a Humanitarian|I'm A Ponytarian]]: Pinkamena from Ask Pinkamena
* [[Incest Is Relative]]: Molestia will not only shamelessly molest her own sister, but also tries to talk Twilight into doing it [https://web.archive.org/web/20130121091101/http://askprincessmolestia.tumblr.com/post/24058709088/ask-princess-molestia-199 with her own brother].
* [[Informed Flaw]] : In universe example in the Discord Whooves blog: [http://askdiscordwhooves.tumblr.com/post/18063281201/she-really-is-a-chatterbox-she-never-stops-making Derpy is apparently unattractive and "a fatass"] but she's drawn the same as the other ponies. This is most likely just the Doctor being a [[Jerkass]] though.
* [[Interactive Comic]]: [http://woonastuck.tumblr.com/ Moonstuck], drawn by the one and only Egophiliac.
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Princess Molestia is a dirty, shameless pervert, but also a genuinely [http://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0qr17WqXY1r3xauuo1_1280.png nice] [http://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0qxlzEYBc1r3xauuo1_1280.png pony].
* [[Limited Wardrobe]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130808173357/http://askhumanluna.tumblr.com/ Human Luna] pretty much swiches between two outfits throughout the blog. This is justified however, as Luna has pretty much zero interest in fashion.
* [[Little Miss Badass]]: Ruby Pinch will be this on occasion, [http://askrubypinch.tumblr.com/post/10810476147/i-i-dont-know-pd-pinchy-mage-pinchy-swordpony like] [http://askrubypinch.tumblr.com/post/10903468050 so].
* [[Love At First Punch|Love At First Botched Stabbing]]: How The Master and Miss Pinkamena [https://web.archive.org/web/20130311222307/http://misspinkamena.tumblr.com/post/15666417018 met].
* [[Mind Rape]]: Practically a trademark of The Master. And it frequently leads to ''actual'' rape not long after.
* [[Morality Pet]]: Sweetie Belle to Rarity in Ask Lil Miss Rarity.
* [[The Multiverse]]: Given the massive number of character blogs, multiple versions of many characters exist. Some blogs seem to interact as though they share the same universe (such as "Ask Octavia" and "Ask Vinyl Scratch"), while others will have temporary crossovers: "Ask Twilight Sparkle Anything" has met at least two alternate versions of herself, the [http://vocationaldeathcruise.tumblr.com Vocational Death Cruise] has over 100 universes interacting with each other, and most of the female characters have had ''some'' kind of interaction with Discord Whooves.
** ''[http://sexyspitfire.tumblr.com/post/22236384889/askfirestarterspitfire-seriously-this-multiple Exempli gratia]''.
* [[My God, What Have I Done?]]: [[Hot-Blooded]] Pinkie's [https://web.archive.org/web/20130125134811/http://askhotbloodedpinkie.tumblr.com/post/20297747619/my-courage-its-dead reaction to] [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|accidentally destroying the Earth.]]
** The Twixie Blog has {{spoiler|Hazel Lulamoon, Trixie's mother and the [[Big Bad]] of part three of the coinciding fanfic, [http://twixie-answers.tumblr.com/post/24157947939/gonna-end-the-hazel-saga-here-if-i-wanted-a having regained enough of her sanity] to feel deep remorse for what she did to Trixie and [[Heel Realization|that she'd become a monster]].}}
* [[Mythology Gag]]: Discorderly Conduct made it it's ''thing'' to bring back characters out of the older-gen ''[[My Little Pony]]'' shows and integrate them into the new aesthetic. Examples include [http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/22661542459/disagree-to-disagree The Bushwoolies]{{Dead link}} (which Discord loathes with a ''passion''), [https://web.archive.org/web/20130921015628/http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/22455220239/discord-not-even-once Tirek], frickin' ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130921015605/http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/22383103622/nothing Grogar]'' and even [http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/22846395305/erebus-concept-eeewwww-rainbows-and-partly Arabus]{{Dead link}}.
* [[Nice Hat]]: Inkie in Ask the Pie Sisters has quite the collection of these.
** Sweetie Belle (or Meanie Belle) ''is'' Ruby Pinch's [[Nice Hat]].
** Discord Whooves' fedora definitely counts as well.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: [[Hot-Blooded]] Pinkie's version of Pin The Tail On The Donkey [https://web.archive.org/web/20130125135207/http://askhotbloodedpinkie.tumblr.com/post/20275810403/ill-just-ill-just-get-a-new-earth-no-big didn't turn out] [https://web.archive.org/web/20130125134811/http://askhotbloodedpinkie.tumblr.com/post/20297747619/my-courage-its-dead so well.]
* [[Nightmare Face]]: [http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lsj2myRNIg1r3vk2oo1_1280.png Loona], again.
* [[Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant]]: Pinkamena.
** A couple of the Grimdark Rarity's, as well.
* [[Official Fan-Submitted Content]]: kenyru had "given" Loona a [[Game Boy]] to play with early in the Ask Loony Loona tumblr to which she would accept nothing else afterwards. This later became an important part of the blog's story.
* [[OC Stand
* [[One of Us]]: Some of the blogs are indeed run by local tropers, like [[Ask the Mane Six]]. Also the author of Whirly & the Night Guards browses the site because in her words she's "[[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|a masochist that likes to get lost on that site]]" and was [http://askwhirlyandthenightguards.tumblr.com/post/22986304449/so-there-i-was-on-tvtropes-because-im-a-masochist quite touched]{{Dead link}} when she saw the description we have for her blog. [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|You're welcome, Puzzle]]!
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Spike in [https://web.archive.org/web/20130217022321/http://ask-paranoid-twilight.tumblr.com/ Ask Paranoid Twilight], Sweetie Belle in Ask Lil Miss Rarity.
* [[Our Werebeasts Are Different]]: Werelight Shine in [https://web.archive.org/web/20130806105808/http://twilightunbound.tumblr.com/ Ask Twilight Sparkle/Werelight Shine].
* [[Perma-Stubble]]: Flutterguy in Just Ask Flutterguy.
* {{spoiler|[[Rape as Drama]]/ [[Villainous Incest]]}}: From Braeburn to Applejack in the Ask Crapplejack blog. This has been shown to have possibly gone back much farther and might've contributed to her {{spoiler|drinking problem}}.
* [[Ridiculously Cute Critter|Ridiculously Cute Critters]]: Chubbies! Most of the blogs based on fillies are this too.
* [[Rule 63]]: [http://askabishonenpony.tumblr.com/ Ask a Bishonen Pony/My Little Bishonen].
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20081028223523/http://http/://askkingmetamorphosis.tumblr.com Ask King Metamorphosis] was [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMrq4bzYfjA originally this] but was changed to respect the universe canon.
* [[Running Gag]]: Few things are universal across these blogs, but pretty much ''every single one'' of them gets a visit from a Pony Chubby at one point or another.
* [[Sealed Evil in a Can]]: [http://statued-discord-replies.tumblr.com/ "Statued Discord Replies"] has Discord answering the question from inside his statue, due to [WiFi] internet devices being set up attached to it. [http://statued-discord-replies.tumblr.com/post/17303639234/ask-doctorcolgate-discord-is-a-cool-guy He almost got out once, but...]
* [[Ship Tease]]: [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]] between [http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/ Discord] and [http://cupidite.tumblr.com/ Chrysalis] was a possibility [http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/23509056330/cupidite-your-freudian-slip-is-showing at best]{{Dead link}}, but nothing more than that. [https://web.archive.org/web/20121115083136/http://cupidite.tumblr.com/post/23797925162/been-there-done-that-discord-pencils-by Then this was posted.]
* [[Shown Their Work]]: Most of the blogs can be tied into a loose continuity with the show, but the creators of "Statued Discord Replies" have repeatedly gone the extra mile to make Discord true-to-form, including his occasional break into rhyme for some of the replies. For example, here he is [http://statued-discord-replies.tumblr.com/post/16906633943/still-out-there-1th-couplet-music-jonathan lamenting on his situation] to the rhythm of ''[[Portal (series)|Portal]]'s'' "Still Alive"; [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJas6-0X2n0&list=PLC06AC6DE34D4188C&index=109&feature=plpp_video Someone] even put those verses into a proper song.
** Likewise, the guy behind Discord Whooves is very well-versed in ''[[Doctor Who]]'' lore, and the references can get pretty obscure.
Line 176:
* [[Slasher Smile]]: Pinkamena does this regularly.
** "Ask Twilight Sparkle Anything" had Twilight doing this after reading [[Cupcakes]]. [[Hilarious in Hindsight]] as it was so [http://ask-twilightsparkle.tumblr.com/post/11489023839/i-wont-sleep-until-i-know-did-i-really-make eerily similar] to Twilight's [[Slasher Smile]] in the actual show.
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20120726064646/http://twilightunbound.tumblr.com/post/19729002282/oh-boy-i-can-feel-my-increased-aggression-taking Werelight] learns that she can freeze her enemies.
* [[The Sociopath]]: Pinkamena and Scootaloo.
** [[PONY.MOV|Jappleack's]] treatment of Apple Bloom.
* [[Stylistic Suck]]: [http://askterry.tumblr.com/ Ask Terry], a [[Fan Sequel]] to [http://www.ponibooru.org/post/view/131034 this parody comic]{{Dead link}}.
* [[Time Skip]]: Several, though it's often alluded to what happened during said skip. Examples include [https://web.archive.org/web/20130929075427/http://ask-adult-applebloom.tumblr.com/ Adult Applebloom], [https://web.archive.org/web/20130814222419/http://askcaptainpipsqueak.tumblr.com/ Ask Captain Pipsqueak], [https://web.archive.org/web/20130426140006/http://askheroicpipsqueak.tumblr.com/ Ask Heroic Pipsqueak & Pumpkin], and others.
* [[Toilet Humour]]: The whole point behind [http://asksweetiepoo.tumblr.com/ Sweetie Poo].
* [[Too Kinky to Torture]]: Lil' Miss Rarity.
Line 186:
* [[Troll]]: Princess "Trollestia" and the lesser known Princess Trolluna.
* [[Tsundere]]: "Meanie" Belle.
* [[Unkempt Beauty]]: You'd think a pony stripped of their fur would not look very cute. [https://web.archive.org/web/20130303210707/http://ask-thecrusaders.tumblr.com/post/24663521615/sweetie-so-many-lovemails-for-me-over-one Sweetie Belle proves you wrong].
* [[Valley Girl]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130919075729/http://ask80scheerilee.tumblr.com/ Ask 80's Cheerilee.] Like, totally!
* [[Villains Out Shopping]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130921050952/http://discorderlyconduct.tumblr.com/post/22325733969/real-men-play-candyland When asked about being the only male villain on the show], [[Daring Do|Ahuizotl]], [[My Little Pony and Friends|Grogar]], and [[My Little Pony TV Specials|Tirek]] join Discord for a good game of ''[[Real Men Wear Pink|Candy Land]]''.
* [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]: Bishonen!Applejack in Ask a Bishonen Pony.
* [[What Beautiful Eyes!]]: [http://askdiscordwhooves.tumblr.com/post/16782493781/ananta-is-how-you-say-her-name-by-the-way Both Discord Whooves] and [http://askthepiesisters.tumblr.com/post/10643480707/heehee-thanks-for-the-compliment-blush-that the Pie Sisters] have been noted to have lovely eyes.
** Played with when Whirly asks Statue Discord to the prom. [http://askwhirlyandthenightguards.tumblr.com/post/22706717595/statued-discord-replies He turns her down]{{Dead link}}, but then Whirly gives give him [[Puppy Dog Eyes]] which causes Discord to fall in love... ''with his own reflection in her eyes''! He then asks himself our to the prom.

* [[Yuri Genre]]: A lot of the blogs qualify.
