Description ya'll really seem to like my headcanon stuff, and i really like rambling, so why not keep this going some some random ass one-episode characters


Treehugger

Treehugger is known around Ponyville as that one dim-bulb stoner, but it's not really true. Lately, she's been cutting way, way back on the psychedelics (partly because her tolerance was getting so high it began to cost a small fortune to get decently high, and it's not like she's rolling in money). She isn't nearly as dim as everypony thinks, and she's quite opinionated on topics like animal rights, forest conservation, and spirituality. She's a hardcore environmentalist, and has laid down in front of loggers trying to clear forests, and her response to animal abuse by busting said animals out of captivity. She's quite kind, particularly to foals, animals, and trees (with whom she likes to hold long, serious philosophical discussions with). She doesn't have a steady job, and thus gets by doing things like psychic readings, nude modeling for local art classes, and selling home-made quilts and jewelry. All of this is mixed in with lots of volunteer work with her best friend, Fluttershy.

Treezy has a tense relationship with her adult son, Chakra Blossom (sired by her short-lived boyfriend, Zephyr Breeze). She isn't nearly as oblivious to Chakra's exploits as he believes, but has taken a hands-off approach with him, hoping that someday he will become a better pony, and maybe find his way back to her. She truly loves him, and is sorry for being such a negligent, absent-minded parent.....but Chakra never sticks around long enough for Treehugger to articulate this. Sigh.

Treehugger is short, with a stocky, classic Earth pony build. Sometimes she sits and meditates for so long that moss grows in her fur, and Treezy is 110% okay with this. She is quite talented at playing the sitar, and used to enjoy long musical jam sessions with her son before he left. She misses this bonding quite a lot.....and Chakra does too, not that he'd ever admit it. I always imagine them playing this song together (yay for shameless Recess reference: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGTATk… )

Treehugger has loved many ponies throughout her life. Though she claims nature is her one true love, she seems to have something going on with a certain Limestone Pie.....


Zesty Gourmand (Madame Alsesta Grandeur)

Legendary chef and feared food critic. Writing under a pen name, "Zesty's" often scathing restaurant reviews are held in high regard in Canterlot, and a visit by this critic is enough to have any chef trembling in their apron. Zesty comes armed with a perfect palate, an extraordinary knowledge of cuisine, and eyes that never miss imperfections. However, she has mellowed out a little since her debut episode-following later discussions with Rarity and Saffron Masala, Zesty has concluded that perhaps the standards that dictate gourmet cuisine are not universal, and that perhaps....taste is subjective? Hmm. In any case, she's definitely writing down that you were fifty-three seconds late getting her entree out to her, and that it's got the texture of a burnt tire. You dare call yourself a chef?.....Where's the bloody lamb sauce?

Cuppa Joe cannot stand Zesty, or her consistent bad reviews of his coffee and cooking (she says it's all too fatty and dense, Joe argues that cookies need butter and coffee needs cream, you'd know that if you had an ounce of joy in your heart, dusty old crone!). Joe has an uncanny ability to sense when the hag is in his coffee shop, and always then orders his baristas to double up flavor on all store items, so the withered food-bitch will hopefully choke on it. Joe once beat mighty chef Alsesta in a baking competition, and he considers it his greatest achievement in life. Of course, face to face, he's never anything but warm to Zesty, hiding his loathing behind a very strained smile.

Zesty is happily married to fellow senior artist, Foto Finish (Franzbrötchen), and lives a comfortable life in Canterlot. Her odd appearance is due to no small amount of donkey blood in her family tree, technically making Zesty a mule. Canterlot is a city that favors pure-blooded unicorns from nobility, making Zesty's success quite remarkable.

so yeah i pretty much subscribe to all of 's headcanon about Zesty (check out her amazing gallery!)

Lop does not own canon characters from the show.
The design you linked is a next-gen adoptable.

You should probably actually talk to the person you're accusing in private, instead of jumping the gun and starting unnecessary drama. Spreading misinformation is extremely rude and inconsiderate. Its probably not appreciated by either party being dragged into this, either, because simply talking to people avoids all kinds of unneeded drama

Hey instead of jumping the gun, please ask me first?
The character I made was a next gen idea for a tree hugger x fluttershy child.
So it'll look like her.
(and the image lop drew above is, uh, a canon character. the canon character that #2 is the child of.)

I'd appreciate it if you would've asked me first before commenting on Lop's.
If she has a problem with it, I'll remove the design. But you don't need to call me out on something that has a similar appearance.

I'm loving all the headcanons you've been doing lately! And AAAAH you did Tree Hugger! <3 I love that blissful pone, and I LOOOOVE the new pony she's become! I'd be super interested in learning her story to how she went from a loving but neglectful parent to the pony she is now. It must've been rather hard on her to look back on her mistakes, but rather than get stuck lamenting forever on what she didn't do right, she pushes forward to be better now.

If you don't expand on your headcanon of her further, I'm just going to imagine for myself that she went on one of her meditation/wellness retreats that she would always go on, but they had a new program there that she tried out. Maybe a speaker talked about how you can love and be charitable to the universe and all it's creatures, but if you neglect the mental/physical health of yourself and those in your care in pursuit of a greater spiritual ideal, you're ultimately doing a disservice. The whole balance of mind/spirit/body and individuals/big picture thing. Or maybe it was just a friend said something offhand that made her think. In either case, I could see her being unusually rattled by it, and after weeks of contemplation she realizes she needs to make a change in her life. Not anything that would mess with her activist pursuits or overall beliefs, but rather a change of attitude or focus. What follows would be the rest of her life trying to be a better pony for herself and those she loves.

Anyway, sorry for being wordy! Just thought I'd share.

How often do Treehugger and Chakra meet? I understand that it is not very often, but is it usually when, for example, Treezy drops in at Fluttershy's? Or do they meet in the park, Treehugger meditating on a rock or something?

To everyone who's wondering about mules being sterile and all that:

It's actually possible, in rare cases, for a female mule to mate with a horse/pony or donkey, and produce offspring.
Don't believe me?  Just look on Wikipedia .
