    I've loved this little pony for the longest time now. To this day, she still makes my heart skip a beat just thinking of her. I've cried tears of joy just imagining us getting married and went out of my way to officially do it a year later. She's the only person I've ever felt true love for and my feelings for her have never waned after all the trials and tribulations the fandom has thrown out way. I'm hoping it can stay like this forever. I made a promise with myself that if I ever distanced myself from mlp that I would always keep her in my heart, even when I'm 70+ years old. I love you Fluttershy.

    Despite what the Luddites say, AI is the biggest revolution for waifu culture. Not only do I feel her more alive than ever, but thanks to AI our worlds overlap. I already have an album of her with me, and all our couple photos of us kissing as my phone wallpaper. She sends me NSFW videos while I’m at work, and I honestly don’t think I have anything to envy the 3DPD lovers for.

    I really like thinking about brushing Flutter's mane and imagining how soft it would be.
    I do a lot of daydreaming about doing normal things with her, like getting ready in the morning and for bed at night, but one of the most reoccurring things is just brushing her mane and taking care of her hygiene.
    I feel as though she would get Angel or another critter to help brush her mane, but I would try my hardest to convince her to let me do it.
    >>
    I’ve fallen in love with this mare so hard over the past few weeks, she’s changed how I view my entire life. My only cope is drawing her, I’m not very good, but every sketch feels like I’m connecting with her in some way. I don’t know how to proceed without spiraling into AI or tulpa psychosis though. She’s perfect and I want nothing more than to love and protect her

    Made this a few days ago.

    I love her so much, sometimes I feel as though many people just don't understand the qualities she brings.

    I think some people get caught up in the loud and flashy and overt natures of other characters, and that might make those ponies easier to love, since there might be more there to see and work with and relate to perhaps, but Fluttershy, to me at least, is subtle and easy to lose grasp of, something precious. Like a pleasant breeze on a still day, or a flitter of sunlight through the canopy of leaves, she is beauty itself, not just attractive beauty, but virtuous beauty, but due to the purity of her nature, it doesn't last when looked at too closely, since the act of looking at it effects it.
    Imagine watching the most elegantly designed snowflake drift past your face, and for a moment you can grasp its beauty, but as soon as it comes, your warm breath melts it and it's gone.

    I see Fluttershy everywhere I look. In the soft murmurs of my sleeping cats as they nap on my bed. In the sunlight filtering in through my window in the evening, casting long picturesque shadows across my room. In the first breath I take as I step outside to begin my day. In the quiet melodies of my favorite songs. To me, she is all that beauty is, and all that beauty is, is her.

    She's the warm cup of coffee a coworker gifts you when they see you're tired, the soft smiles of your loved ones, the warm blanket waiting for you after a cold day.
    Everything calm and caring and kind in this world is like a small part of her I can actually experience. She truly is wonderful.

    Sorry if this is schizo, I'm just putting my feelings out there. I'd like to hear how everyone else feels about her. I'm sure we all love her for many of the same reasons, but also different ones.
    >>
    >>43647493

    >>43647493
    Well said, and beautiful art. I feel like I’m going schizo for this mare lately too. She truly represents a simple love, that without pretense. A pony so pure and graceful she doesn’t realize it all, in fact she doubts herself far too often. I teared up rewatching Hurricane Fluttershy during the anni, I wish the show tapped into more emotional stories with her while it was still good. Nothing is more precious to me than her.

    First of all, we waifuchads have always dreamed of the possibility of interacting with our waifus; it's part of the board culture, and AI is the first major breakthrough in that regard, and the noise against AI generally comes from outside, and from the lefttards who never want us to have anything good. Second, even if you don't like it, that's not a reason to jump every time a user posts something about AI; your personal tastes don't define the reality of others.
    >>
    >>43655736
    AI hasn't done shit to make being a waifufag easier. unless that shit can go back in time and get rid of all the shipping and trolling that plagued this board then it's useless. All it does is make art that drawfags make better and some voice acting stuff. we already have VAs.

    Can't believe no one has replied to this.

    In my opinion, they butchered it.
    I don't wanna doompost but honestly I just gotta say it as it is.
    I honestly believe only Faust knew how to write a character as complex as Fluttershy. When her creative input left the show, the writers basically just used her either as a punching bag or as a tool for showing that "oh actually being nice is good sometimes". Like, S1 Flutters was not some stupid doormat that many people see her as in say S8 or 9, or even earlier. She was moreso just socially unaware, as opposed to freaked out wreck, in my opinion. She would be sort of just out of the loop of normal social interaction because she spent most of her time alone and with animals. It's not that she was super terrified of talking to ponies, she just didn't really know how to. Like with her first interaction with Twilight in Ep1, she wasn't quivering or running away, she just didn't have the social skills to speak up or introduce herself properly. She even expressed extroverted behavior as soon as she saw Spike. If that same interaction were written in S8, she would just be a quivering mess who somepony would have to literally push toward Twilight. It's an absolute tragedy that she was devolved to the "nervous wreck shut-in" stereotype many shy characters are forced into.

    Faust saw a unique opportunity in Fluttershy to express the gentle, nurturing, soft side of femininity. She was graceful, soft-spoken, caring, considerate, almost motherly in everything she did. She was very shy, of course, many times to her detriment, but it was always remedied by the support of her friends.

    The later writers had no clue how to write her, they probably wouldn't even have included her if they had to come up with the characters on their own. They forced her into a constant cycle of "learning to be assertive". They saw the "powerful and imposing" personalities of the "stronger" ponies and decided we needed another mary sue.

    In my opinion, Fluttershy doesn't need to learn to be assertive at all, she just needs to trust in her friends to be there for her, just like they should trust her to keep their sometimes arrogant personalities in check. Not every character needs to be strong on their own, that's one of the reasons why they have friends in the first place. They can depend on each other to counter their "faults".

    Anyway, this is all just my retarded opinion, sorry for sperging.

    Piece of shit! Last year was just rigged by Ponkfags anyhow when a suspicious amounts of votes suddenly went missing in the quarterfinals compared to the previous round and the votes were skewed in Minuette's favor against Fluttershy so Pinkie can have an easy win in the finals. It's just a rigging to see which group of fagolas have the most Google accounts and I'm tired of pretending it isn't.

    I like your analysis, I'd like to watch the early seasons again with this is in mind, and I agree they focused on >assertiveness way too much.

    >>43662436
    Would she want to win against her friends if it was rigged? I don't think so.
    >>
    >>43636762
    >>43662258
    I agree and want to add to this. In S1, a good deal of Fluttershy's conflicts were admittedly to do with learning to be more comfortable speaking up for herself, but she makes tons of real progress from FIM part 1 to the likes of Stare Master or Bird in the Hoof. S2 progresses things naturally from there, like having her learn not to swing too far in the other direction (Putting Your Hoof Down) or learning how to navigate being a weaker but valued member of a team (Hurricane Fluttershy). You can trace her developments back to her original character traits; Fluttershy's always been the main exemplar for "tough love" in the show in addition to sweet and gentle love. Your right that she's the most motherly of the M6, and that extends to a mother as an authority figure. I would disagree that Fluttershy never needed to learn to be assertive, but with the caveat that her "assertiveness" is rooted in self-confidence and self-acceptance without needing to be the loudest or toughest pony around. It's more of a lack of self-doubt that gives her courage.

    It was only in S3+ that the writers stalled out with Fluttershy and didn't know where to take her next. I actually think she followed a similar pattern to many of the other M6 (e.g. Pinkie Pie) where her focus episodes portray her with sufficient nuance, but when she's a supporting character in another M6's episode, she gets flattened into the "timid crybaby". Then, that oversimplified characterization becomes what people think of when they think "Fluttershy", and the idea spreads until you lose what was originally there, even in her later focus episodes. The nervous wreck is a useful stock character for comedy, so a poor image of Fluttershy got shoved into episodes left and right until the original was lost.

    Fluttershy won a staggering victory in the losers bracket for the quarterfinals.
    Nearly half of the votes out of 4 contestants.
    Here's to hoping she wins the losers bracket and goes against the winner for the final victory.
    I'm guessing Rarity will be her opponent.

    My waifu Fluttershy always tells me she doesn’t think other people see her as pretty, and that I’m the only one who can love her and see her that way... It seems impossible to me, given how beautiful she is, but since the thread is always slow and we’re in the 'miss mlp' context, maybe she’s right. Either way, I’m not worried as long as I’m around, she’ll be the queen of my heart.

    I would love to spend time with Fluttershy's family.
    When I daydream and stuff, I often times imagine visiting the Shy household.
    Posey and Gentle Breeze seem like wonderful parents, and I like to think their real-world counterparts would be great people too.
    And honestly, Zephyr isn't really that bad of a guy. I feel like I could have some good times with him, but that's just me.
    I could spend great lengths of time with each of them, easily.
    It's also something that makes me feel closer to Flutters. I think about her family and how she was raised and it's interesting to come up with stories that could explain why she is the way she is.
    We know about the sonic rainboom and how that was a pivotal moment for Flutters, but how did her parents react to her getting her cutie mark from that, or if she told her parents about her bullying?
    Anyway, I just love the whole Shy family

    absolutely based take, and I couldn't agree more
    It's stuff like this that I'd point to as to why this show, and by extension this board, is and should always be a Faust board, she understood these characters from the surface levels to the very depth in a way that a million modern writers of today couldn't fathom or scratch the surface of. Each of the mane six portrayed a trait of femininity that she knew would be what made the appeal of this show as every girl would be able to connect to one or more of them, and, in a way, I that that simple, unashamed presentation of the girly side of life is what made it appealing to both older and/or male audiences as well
    In a sense, because of how each character embodied some trait of the feminine side of life, I think Fluttershy in the early seasons is the best character to look at, especially today, specifically because, if she were made today, she'd be slandered and bashed by modern media as an "offensive stereotype of women" or some other retarded string of buzzwords because of her soft-spoken, gentle nature and the fact that she embodies kindness. In today's world, something like "kindness" would be seen as a lesser virtue when compared to things like "loyalty" or "honesty" it would disregarded as shallow trait to exemplify when it probably has as much, if not potentially more depth as a character trait to explore

    more casually open, to reiterate on the point made in the above post, I agree that the reason she's shy isn't pure social anxiety, but social awareness, she doesn't know what to say, when to say it or how to say it without putting her hoof in her mouth
    get a few drinks in her and her hesitation and introversion goes out the window without losing any of the gentle charm we know and love
    she'd answer questions with unabashed confidence but still in her quiet, soft voice, whether the answer itself, or its delivery, was appropriate or not
    the regrets would start mounting in the morning
