First, and hahaha!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, the look on Trixie's face! Lol
ReplyDeleteTwixie in a commercial...
ReplyDeleteDont mind if i do!
I would very much like to see Twixie be canon, but I like TwiLuna too.
ReplyDeleteIf that ain't the best thing ever...
ReplyDeleteIt will never be canon Seth. Also, loved the comic. There are precious few little things more classy than an alligator in a tux.
ReplyDeleteThe look on their faces.... OH MY.
ReplyDeleteOh, and it should be noted that the new rocket launcher in TF2 fires PLOTonium shells. that is why it occasionaly leaves a sonic-rainboom-esq disk in its wake.
INB4 sompony makes a mod that turns it into an ACTUALY sonic rainboom launchair.
(This is sinez, dont feel like logging in atm)
The flowers on the wall above Twilight's head look like little smoke clouds at first glance- I thought she was on the verge of going Rapidash on Pinkie for a second.
ReplyDeleteLol'd at the "Derpy Bubbles" next to the tub XD
ReplyDeletewhy are they both in a bathtub...
ReplyDeleteWhy is Twilight in the tub with Trixie? :D
ReplyDeleteThe thing that I always loved about this one is that the Twixie joke isn't even the main joke. It is just there as a background event.
ReplyDelete"How long until Twixie becomes canon?" NEVER!
ReplyDeleteAlso, Derpy Bubbles.
Way to ruin a romantic moment Gummy!
ReplyDeleteOh gummy, you so smooth.
ReplyDeleteGummy: Always.
I don't always read comics, but when I do, I read Gummy's dialogue in the Dos Equis Guy's voice. Stay pony, my friends.
ReplyDeleteDAMN.
ReplyDeleteI thought this was an official comic at first! XD
I will give Hasbro ten dollars of all my money if they cannonize Twixie!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting my comic!!!
I would stop being a fan if that happened
ReplyDeleteI am SOOO TIRED OF TWIXIE.
ReplyDeleteIf there's EVER a hint at Twixie becoming canon, I am so out of here.
Hell, I'm tired of Trixie and I hope we never see her again.
Yeah, if that happened show has officially jumped the shark with a jet pack.
ReplyDeleteOh, Gummy. You little pimp, you. XD
ReplyDeleteBro, if any pony lesbo pony ships become canon, the world will have a field day. Both good and bad
ReplyDeleteWhat's wrong with you people? Can't a pair of young, pretty, pastel colored magical fillies enjoy a private moment of love and friendship together in a luxurious bubble bath without your minds going in the gutter?
ReplyDeleteShame on you all.
@Hio590
ReplyDeleteWell, I could care less if they had more Lyra/Bon Bon hanging out in the background.
To answer Setisto's question, I would like to quote from the book of Pinkieus Pieicus 13:37.
ReplyDelete"Fooreveeeeer!"
Derpy bubbles :D
ReplyDeleteDoes nopony else notice the calories in that drink! I mean 963 calories.... Thats half of what you need in a day right there. Still gummy+suit+twixie= manly squees of manliness.
ReplyDeleteHow long until Twixie becomes canon?
ReplyDeletesimple question, simple answer: never
ps.
lol @ derpy bubbles
Stay classy, bronies.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they're implying Twixie?
ReplyDeleteNah, I'm sure the two ponies are just sharing an innocent bath.
*Notices the alcohol and candles*
Okay, they're implying Twixie.
Twixie is a stupid ship.
ReplyDeleteStop doing it...
I want derpy bubbles for my bathes too!
ReplyDelete>963 calories
ReplyDeleteDamn, that's really is classy.
Uber lol
ReplyDelete"Only 963 calories per bottle!"
ReplyDeleteSounds good to me!
@KShrike
ReplyDeleteWay to love and tolerate. >:(
I think Trixie and Twilight make as much sense as the other pairings I've seen. It'll never be on the show, but people are free to come up with whatever romances they want.
I want Derpy Bubbles they need to make that happen asap.
Sorry guys, but i have to say this, but i don't like Trixie, to the point of near hate, and if Twixie became cannon i would kill myself. Twice.
ReplyDelete@KShrike
ReplyDeleteComplaining about Twixie is stupid.
Stop doing it.
DAMN YOU GUMMY! THAT WASN'T NAYC AT ALL!
ReplyDelete@Nick
ReplyDeleteComplaining about people complaining about Twixie is just as stupid. If they have a valid reason to dislike it, don't bitch about it.
@Casper
ReplyDeleteHa. I'm fine if someone dislikes a ship. I dislike Rarity/Applejack (Rarijack?) myself. But I don't go to posts about it and tell whoever is responsible to stop. That's called 'stifling creativity' and it's not a good thing.
Twixie will never be canon because Trixie is a loser who only appeared in one episode.
ReplyDelete@Narwhals' Bend oh hell no it would ruin everything
ReplyDeleteWell well well, it seems we have some NEIGHsayers in the audience
ReplyDeleteTwixie? TWIXIE! YAY! MORE TWIXIE!
ReplyDeleteTwixie in a bathtub with Gummy the classy creeper. Utter perfection.
The looks on their faces are perfect too.
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteLuna will consider your logic.
Gummy I'm so envious.
ReplyDelete963 per bottle?! look at the size of that thing, you would get less calories from a stick of butter!* the only way i can see it being that rich in calories is if pinkie pie invented a new sweetener because sugar just wasn't cutting it for her anymore.
ReplyDelete(one stick of salted butter weighs in at 810 calories *cue's "the more you know" star/rainbow*)
No, NO, NO, NO!! I ain't too hung up on this shipping malarkey in any event, but Twixie just brings my piss to a boil.
ReplyDeleteShe's a loud-mouthed, arrogant, lying braggart!
She humiliated some of my best friends in front of the town to make herself look better!
ZOMG Love at first bucking sight!
GEEEZ.
Still, picture made me lol.
@Casper
ReplyDeleteActually, I think you would explode. Twice.
Do you think Derpy Bubbles would be a viable cure for Poison Joke?
@Bronode
ReplyDeleteYeah, not only are you overreacting, I've yet to see a Twixie work that followed anything close to that format. Sorry, but if you're going to complain, at least try to know enough about what you're complaining about to be accurate.
:fuckyeah:
ReplyDeleteHaha, I love the "Derpy Bubbles" next to the bathtub. <3 Also love Trixie's expression. Oh Gummy, you are one smooth classy perv.
ReplyDelete@Nick
ReplyDeleteBallad of Twilight Sparkle follows that pretty much precisely that format. Soon as Trixie leaves Twilight sets out to find her "true love". Though it contains a shipping I loathe with a passion, the non-Twixie bits are lots of fun.
So yeah, if you're going to defend something at least try to know enough about what you're defending to know when someone might have a point when they attack it.
@Bronode
ReplyDeleteAs I said, I have yet to see a Twixie that follows that format. I've yet to read that fic, so I'll go do it as soon as I can take time out of my busy schedule of sitting here procrastinating. If it is as you say, I'll revise my position.
That said, I won't revise it too much, as:
- I have seen it around, and I do believe it's tagged with comedy, so I'm more lax as to the circumstances
- It's a single example in a sea of quality Twixie that doesn't follow a similar format, which your post implied they all follow.
But yeah, if you're right I'll concede that one point at least. I'll get back to you as soon as I've read it.
@Calories discussion: That's actually not much calories at all :p
ReplyDeleteWhen people say calories they mean kilocalories. A bottle of Coke light contains "just 1 kCalorie"... 1000 calories :p
imjustsayin.jpg
Holy shit, I love the detail in Pixelkitties comics. So many little things get thrown into the background, which really adds to the fun. Hell, Gummy Cola was a hidden gag in pixel's Transformers parody.
ReplyDeletei think the problem with Trixy is she was given just enough cannon in the story for people to dislike her and set up a basic personality for the character, but not enough cannon to fully flesh her out. this leaves trixy in a no mans land of fiction, shes not a well grounded character like the main 6 (& spike) or a relative blank canvases like any of the background characters.
ReplyDeleteSo in step the fannon contributes (writers and artists) to help fill in the blanks. the problem is writers have to bend other backwards to try and come up with new ways to justify her actions in the cannon, and this will often ends up making her a sympathetic character. as soon as others read this new version of a one note antagonist they come up with new stores based on the fannon, rather then the cannon.
so now that you have a fleshed out character what do you write about them? well shipping sure is popular but who to ship her with? well, ostensibly her new personality conflicts with Twilight the most, and as we all know the key to any good story is conflict.
so in short, i believe the reason Twixie is such a popular ship is because it's now fertile soil for fan fiction to grow in... ether that or it's the word "Twixie"...
Classy Gummy doesn't always wear a monocle,
ReplyDeletebut when he does,
he's even classier
I don't always drink. But when I do, I prefer Dos Equines.
ReplyDelete@Wraithwood
ReplyDeleteThe word "Twixie" definitely sells it for me :D
In all honesty, I don't think we have to "bend over backwards" to flesh her out. The most common portrayal I see of her - that of a showmare who got a bit carried away, and despite all that she's still a good pony - fits pretty well with the episode. She did try to stop the Ursa, after all, even though she knew she couldn't.
That said, yes, fanfic writers and fan authors and such do have to take creative liberties in getting the characters together. However, they have to do the same with Rarity and Applejack. Or Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie. Or Twilight and Luna.
My point? Yes, Trixie in shipfics isn't perfectly representative or in-universe Trixie. Well, except for that story Cereal wrote, but it's an exception. But so is everypony in shipfics. By the very nature of the show, creative liberties must be taken to romantically partner these ponies. Hating Twixie exclusively because of this is hypocritical.
I'm with ya, Gummy.
ReplyDeleteAh, Twixie's fun to say. I like the ship for no other reason. i don't even like Trixie's character (please don't kill me!). But Twixie? I could just say it all day long.
ReplyDeleteTwixie, Twixie, Twixie, dum-de-do-da Twixie....
Anyway, great comic, even funnier since I've been known to watch mlp and take bubble baths at the same time. It's like a goodfeelingsplosion, doing that. =)
Derpy Bubbles!? Want now!
ReplyDeleteAs for Twixie...meh I dont really play into shipping of any characters. Kinda makes the show awkward to watch for me. But to each they're own, Love and Tolerance everypony!
It took me a sec to "get the situation" but once it dawn upon me I knew I was reading genius.
ReplyDelete@PonyPonyPonyBrony
ReplyDeleteI must concede, it is a rather... pleasing word, isn't it?
it cannot be cannon, you know why? Because Twiluna is -strictly- superior.
ReplyDeleteI like the trixie x trixie ship. Dont ask, but it has been done at least twice, and yes I mean Trixie getting shipped with herself. In one case she goes back in time so she can do unspeakable things with herself.
ReplyDeleteI don't always support ships of any kind. But when I do, I prefer Twixie.
ReplyDeleteStay classy, my friends.
@Bugsydor I'm pretty sure that book's antilegomina...
ReplyDelete@Bronode
ReplyDeleteAlright, I went and clicked on chapter 1 of The Ballad of Twilight Sparkle. I'll be honest; I've only read the first line. The first line, which reads as follows:
“...And that's how I learned to stop worrying, and love the Bomb. Always your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle.”
Yeah, I'm pretty sure even if this does follow the formula that pisses you off, it's not meant to be taken seriously >_>
Really, the only ship I'm fine with is Lyra/Bon-bon, and that's only because they're blank slate background characters.
ReplyDeleteI'm really getting sick of all this Trixie. Hey, we already have a "no-fanfiction" button. How about a "no-trixie" button?
@Desigos
ReplyDeleteBecause a No-Trixie button is completely unnecessary. And petty. blocking fanfics is understandable, since the vast majority of the updates here are fanfics and they push other news down the list really fast. Trixie causes no such problems. The only problems she causes are from whiny haters... whining.
@Desigos
ReplyDeleteDude, really? She doesn't even speak in this comic but the way you guys are whining, you'd think the last fifty posts on the EQD were about Trixie. I know we're all here cause we're fans of a little girl's TV show, but how about behaving like real grown-up people instead of whiny little brats.
I swear, this infighting and cries for censorship because you don't like a cartoon character someone else does is the kind of shit that will kill this fandom and the make us all look like petty losers.
You don't like Trixie, or Zecora, or Rarity, or a certain writer, or a particular artist? MOVE ALONG. Don't spend the whole page of pixel's submission bellyaching about Trixie. There's a cool comic here and almost every post is about how terrible it is that Trixie is in it.
Soon enough the decent artists and writers won't want to submit their work or be a part of this site because it's just not worth the petty flamewars about nonsense.
@SprinkleDoughnut
ReplyDeletewell that's a touch hyperbolic if i say so myself, i mean calling this a flame war & claiming this type of thing will drive out all the authors & artists? still, you do have a point, more credit & Praise should go to the creator for this awesome comic instead of debating twixie (damn it. i cant stop enjoying that word, is too fun to say). so Thank you Pixelkitties for this awesome comic! it's very well done and really funny :D
Less than 1kcal per bottle?! I WILL DRINK THESE TO THE END OF TIME!

@SprinkleDoughnut
ReplyDeleteI read that over again this morning after some sleep, and I realize that what I said was a little extreme. This is a good comic, and I don't think Trixie takes away from that.
It's just that I find her constant appearance uncalled for, especially with the whole Twilight/Trixie thing. Imagine if every other post was about Gilda, and how amazing the Gilda/Pinkie Pie couple is. You can't say that wouldn't get on your nerves a bit.
the great and powerful bronius maximus declares this comment fuuny the great and powerful bronius maximus has spoken!...in the third person!
ReplyDelete@Casper
ReplyDeleteReally? That's how I feel about Luna.
*hides from the inevitable angry mob*
What is this I don't even
ReplyDeleteHeh. Derpy Bubbles :).
ReplyDeleteHeh...Gummy is such a player. I can just hear him saying, "Yeeeeeeah."
ReplyDeleteP.S. Lesbo shipping creeps me out. Just sayin'.
I Would SO buy this.
