>>42543602DASHIE!
:barrelroll:
4th for best pony!
I love my beautiful wife so much, bros. Waking up and getting to kiss and hug her is the highlight of my morning, and snuggling and spooning her is the highlight of every night. I'm so lucky to have her in my life.
>>42543685Yes, we know you're a schizo imagining things up in a mental asylum. What else is new?
Easthorse was the fic that ~truly~ got me rollin' with the the Rainbow train.What was it for you guys?
>>42543727>What else is new?I got my Dashie a plush of herself. She loves it. Thanks for asking!
>>42543796cuties
>>42543602YOU HAVE TO READ THE BOOK DASHIE
>>42544321oh shit Dashie watch out
Rainbow Dash crushing my skull by kicking my head repeatedly against a wall until my head is nothing more than a pile of mushed brain matter and bone fragments because I don't deserve to live. She's so awesome. I love Rainbow Dash
>>42543796They're super cuteWhat kind of modeling do you do?
Rainbow Dash after eating a whole bucket of oats
>>42546269I want to rub her full belly
Reminder that I'm selling my Rainbow Dash plushie to an anon who is willing to give her a loving home. >>42520270 >>42532808Since nobody emailed me so far, I'm now thinking that maybe I should go about selecting an anon to send her to by a different method. Like maybe I can choose a winner through a game of chance through post number gets or something. What do you guys think?
>>42546530the fastest anon to email you gets her. I think that's fair enough, right?
>Dash's parents come to Ponyville>they heard about their daughter finally having a special somepony>they have no idea that it's (You)would you keep your status a secret b4 telling RD about their visit?
>>42546706>would you keep your status a secret b4 telling RD about their visit?yes, I want to see their reaction when I tongue kiss their daughter
>>42545708Planes. I'm new to it, so I don't have any finished models to show yet. I've been slowly working on a Spitfire for obvious reasons.
>>42548755has anyone reached out to you yet
>>42549245I'm not the anon selling the plush, if that's what you're talking about >>42546530I hope one of you fags in need of a larger Dash plush reaches out to that anon. She deserves to go to a loving home, and having a big plush to cuddle in bed with is amazing. I highly recommend it.
>>42549330oh whoops, i absentmindedly clicked the wrong post. >>42546530I really dont want her to end up in the trash, but I've already got a jumbo dashie of my own. I'd like other anons to have a chance at getting one first but if no one wants to get her then maybe I'll have to take her then

>>42520270>>42546530Do NOT throw her out anon! Even if you can't sell her just give her to a goodwill or something, if you throw her in the trash you're a gigantic faggot and clearly hate her.
>>42557944this
>>42554522>which variant of the spitfire?Spitfire F Mk IX. My favorite variant, personally. I got the Eduard 1/72, and it's very detailed. Do you do any modeling?
>>42549672Anon don't throw her out. I have a life sized Dashie but if it comes down to it I'll take her off your hands. Keep us all posted here if you don't find a buyer. Also post on ebay.
>>42543685this. Coming back from mare fair, finally recovered enough to feel this love and grief - it happened and it's over. Rainbow is for now the totem of this bittersweetness, each of those little highlights a reminder of the last week's blindingly beautiful experience of community. There's nothing I can do but hold her and be thankful for life to have brought her to me, and through her the fandom.
>>42559098come inside Dashie, you'll freeze your butt off
>>42559269Shouldn't be a problem but make her a nice hot chocolate and prepare a comfy spot by the fire just in case
>>42543685>>42558835I love her!
>>42558660I'm not the guy trying to sell the jumbo dashie. I was trying to say that i've already got a jumbo dashie but I dont want >>42546530 to throw her out like he said he would in the previous thread, so I'm offering to buy her. I should have worded that clearer.>>42546530If you're still here, I sent you an email. Check your inbox
>>42559358ok then frees to death
>>42558601that's a good choice, I like the Seafire Mk XVII if I had to pick a spittyI do a lot of building but the tisim strikes whenever I have to paint so I just end up with a lot of grey subassemblies on the desk, I haven't done any plane kits yetmaybe one day I'll actually finish something
>>42561586>Seafire Mk XVIIunf wet Spitfire plap plap>I do a lot of building but the tisim strikes whenever I have to paint so I just end up with a lot of grey subassemblies on the deskYeah, pretty much what's been happening to me. Putting the pieces together is fun, but painting is what slows me down majorly. I've got most of the internals done at this point, but I can't put them all together and start working on the externals until I bother with painting.
I heard you want to kiss rainbow dash on the dock, is that right? Here. On the house.

Shoutout to the bros who made it to the unofficial /dash/ meetup at mare fair. Sorry I showed up so late and didn't contribute any drawings.
>>42571255beeg mare takes what she wants when she wants
>>42569726If you've married her you're already her stepdad.
Why doesn't Dashie ever get digits anymore.... I miss when Dashie always got digits
>>42572078Not fast enough ever since the accident.
>>42572078Dashie doesn't need digits to be awesome
>>42543602What book would (You) read with Dashie?
>>42543602Great foster mom to Gabe in "What a Strange Little Colt"
>>42572482I have a feeling she'd love some of the Discworld books. Perfectly pulpy, funny, and adventuresome, easily digestible, yet with such clever depth for careful readers. Not sure if she'd love Rincewind though, he's kind of exactly the opposite of her - incredibly risk-averse, made retarded (instead of famous) due to an accident in his adolescence, succeeds by giving up, happy to betray any principles to get out of a tough situation, and so on. Maybe that'd make it extra funny for her though.

Driving home today, I saw an amazing sunset. I thought of Rainbow Dash because I'm sure she would have loved to have been up flying while it was happening.
>>42543685Nice gush post for me to screenshot for the next time I feel bad

>>42575595how does she do that with hooves
>>42568295bless her heart if she doesn't try her best
>>42576872she'd make a good mom
>>42573588Ugh I need her as much as she needs me…
What is Dashie's IQ?
>>42577183She would like the strong and supportive kind
>>42577235140 but lazy
>>42577235isn't it obvious
Hey dashfrens, there's been an update that I want to share with you. First off, my AFOQT got pushed back by a few months, but that's not why I'm posting this. I can no longer become a pilot within the USAF. I was medically disqualified for my sitting height and to my knowledge there are no waivers for this. I am still eligible to serve, even as a drone pilot and ABM, just not in a physical operative position on an aircraft. My next best option is drone pilot, so that is what I'll aim for but it's certainly not what I envisioned when I started this journey. The reality of this update hasn't fully sank in with me yet. I will still do my best and push forward because I know Rainbow Dash wouldn't want to me to give up cause of an inevitable setback such as this. Like other dashfrens mentioned, I can still become a pilot through civilian means. I'm sorry for not living up to any hopes you may have had for me. I just hope that someday I'll be able to experience her greatest passion and make her proud.
>>42578185>Anon, the only hope I have for you is that you have a happy, contented life. It doesn't matter how you do it. I love you.
>>42577183She would be the best mom she could be, but that doesn't guarantee she'd be the greatest mom.
>>42578185>I can no longer become a pilot within the USAF.Fuck, anon. This is what I intend to try out at some point (after trying out a Cessna for a few years). I'm a bigger Spitfag than a Dashfag, but I know both mares would want you to do your damndest to fly no matter what.
>>42578185I’m really sorry to hear that, anon. But if there’s one thing that’s always true about Dash, it’s that she loves those who give their all, the ability to fly be damned. You’ll be able to tell her you gave it everything, and the only thing that stopped you was something completely out of your control.
>>42578846>picso cute
>>42578669kek
>>42579606I want to kiss that horse
>>42578669She's trying, bless her soul.

>>42580855
>>42580855This image is just breathtaking. I don't have any words to describe it that don't reduce it. It unfolds from the center, with that gesture, the kiss. You can hardly see it, it's so far away and so unexaggerated, honest and simple. The cold twilight and the encroaching shadow of the village, houses unlit, evoke a certain loneliness, but not without warmth and hope - radiating from that sacred, unadorned kiss. And there, in the bottom, we go back in time to witness the start of this beautiful ending: a date, lasting too long, time slipping away in enraptured companionship - or did they linger too long for fear of this kiss, the seal of that nocturnal separation, where each must return to a bed that lacks the other? As the simple and ordinary lamp casts a pool of warmth in the lonely night, the simple and ordinary kiss radiates a clarity and peace which banishes the illusion of being alone.Oh yeah... pepperoni I guess
>>42581720is actually good on pizza
>>42581734wonder what that's like
>>42580855tuna
>>42578185How far off is your sitting height? I know someone who was too tall and just stopped doing squats, and I know some people who were too short and got waivers.
>>42577235Solid >130. She doesn't become a high achiever by bumbling into it. Athletes don't become successful just by being good, not repetetively at least. Dash was not only adept at flying, but also her weather team job. She'd be the equivalent of the high school quarterback that got a scholarship for sports and ended up graduating with a 4.0 despite spending all day on the field. She's smart, she just prioritizes enjoying life, so her rote knowledge about non-flying stuff is low.
>>42582888Nice trips, Dashie!

I may be biased here, but who would you say better represents MLP as a mascot character, Rainbow Dash or Pinkie Pie? You already know my answer
>>42593190Pinkie better represents MLP as a whole for it's bubbly friendship and sugary sweet aesthetic. Dashie better represents G4 for how different it was compared to the rest of MLP.

Of all the reasons why I couldn't become a pilot within the USAF, I truly didn't expect it to be something I can't take guilt for. >>42583810I'm not sure, technically my DQ could've been due to something else as it only specified anthropometrics but knowing me it was more than likely my sitting height. My commander spoke of the matter as if it was ultimate. Apparently, DoDMERB has been pushing out new regulations and they've been cracking down on medical eligibility for rated career fields. There might be a waiver process I could try to pursue, but I won't attempt it until after I get selected for field training (if I do). It would require me to visit a base in a different state.

>>42602262
>>42597668Pursue the waiver, write your congressman, believe it or not they can help with this sort of thing and sometimes actually do so. Please don't give up anon. I got in on a waiver for depth perception. Anything is possible. Also, most physical stature restrictions only disqualify you from ejection seat eacraft which are bombers and fighters. You can usually get into other aircraft. There are people going through pilot training right now who are 37 years old...and the age restriction is 30. The Air Force is hurting for pilots, don't let some enlisted grunt or wannabe non-pilot officer tell you you can't get there. I garauntee you it's strictly because they don't want to put in the effort for the waiver paperwork, or don't know about it. Email every DoDMERB person you can find and explain your situation and your passion. People care and they listen. Not all, but one will.

>>42640387I want to ride Rainbow Dash
>>42626913that pic is probably one of my favourites of Dash, the slightly rougher artstyle is visually pleasing, and the way her mane doesn't seem to flow like normal, but instead spills over her shoulders and the almost tired but content look in her eyes gives her a more mature air that I simply love
Dashie's got the moves
>>42642773Look at her go!
>>42643867So precious
>>42643867I love her so much
