Some more NextGen! Since I’m still figuring out the second batch of the PinkieShy brood I’ll just post this up for now. These two are the second pair of twins AJ and RD have!

These two are Spring Blossom (the blue one) and his twin sister Summer Harvest.

Summer Harvest is very much 100% the daughter of Rainbow Dash. She's brash, she's confident, she's loud, she's demanding, and she's always go-go-going. She loves speed and sometimes wishes she can fly, but for the most part she simply huffs and say "if I can't be the fastest pegasus, I'll be the fastest earth pony!" She wants to be a professional race horse when she's older, and with her already being fast, it's looking more and more like a goal she'll have ease in achieving.

Yep, Summer Harvest is definitely the daughter of Rainbow... just without the filter. Summer can be incredibly rude, bossy, insensitive, and impatient. She likes it when things are done her way, and she's the type to usually say "okay but my idea's better so we'll do that". She's pretty reckless and some of her schemes for adventure ends up being risky or dangerous, sometimes even purposely to combat her tendency to get bored easily; this usually comes in the form of her planning new stunts or routines for her running. She has the tendency to take short-cuts; if its for fixing a problem, to get ahead, or in having fun, she'll take the opportunity without much thought of the long-term consequences. This can, and has, worked for her, but at the same time it's a source of problems for her, especially in school. She's also pretty defiant and the resident rule-breaker of the AppleDash family. If AJ says not to go in the Everfree Forest... she's probably adventuring in the Everfree Forest. If Rainbow Dash said not to go to the track at night... she's probably trying to get to it past midnight. Her mothers love her to bits, but by golly the filly really needs to learn the boundaries and when its okay to break rules, and when it's better to follow them. Unfortunately, she learns this lesson the hard way.

For all of her faults, though, Summer Harvest is still a good kid at heart. She will not stand for injustice done to others (she might be a bit of a bully, she will throw down with other bullies purposely picking on someone), she's fiercely loyal, she's honest (she's a trouble maker, but she'll tell the truth when she's caught), she's direct and unafraid to speak her mind, she's imaginative, and she's practical.

In contrast, Spring Blossom is the yin to his sister's yang. He's gentle, he's friendly, he's patient, and he's tolerant. It's probably a good thing that he is, otherwise he and his siter would be arguing all the time. Whereas Summer loves to go-go-go in terms of speed, Spring is go-go-go in that he loves to explore, which is probably why he's easily convinced to go through with his sister's plans half the time. He wants to see the world and everything it has to offer, the cultures, the music, the food, the environments. Everything. He's naturally curious and loves to see how and why things work, and he's surprisingly good at building knick-knacks and little things like simple machines or toy cars. He's entered many a science fair and placed almost every time.

Spring Blossom, however, can be a bit... okay, a big pushover if he isn't careful. He's very much the voice of reason to his sister, and when he knows an idea is bad he'll voice it, but feels nervous and anxious when Summer gives him a hard time about it and will just go with the plan. It's how he gets roped in a lot of the trouble Summer gets in. Whereas Summer will easily stand up for herself he's more likely to let a mean comment on his behalf slide or just don't say anything. He's very conflict-averse: he'd much rather ignore the problem until it magically goes away, and that can make the situation worse. He's sensitive and can get his feelings hurt pretty easily; Summer sometimes calls him a "crybaby", but no-one else is allowed to call him that. Ever. He also now has a crippling fear of Timberwolves he's trying to work through, he gets anxious when alone for too long (he has a therapy pet to help him with this) and feels a bit self conscious about his appearance due to his scars.





Despite it, Spring Blossom is a really sweet kid who's very supportive of anyone he comes into contact with. He's accepting and unafraid of the "unusual" or things that don't fit its seemingly normal constructs. He's unafraid to display his emotions for all to see, and is willing to work hard to get to where he wants in life, and is an avid animal lover.



Fun Facts:



-The accident that left Spring Blossom missing his right eye (I'll have to redo his eye and scars to correctly reflect that) and the accident that resulted in the loss of Winter Gale's wing is the same incident. It's an incident Summer Harvest blames herself for and feels deep regret for.

-Spring Blossom calls Summer "Foxfoot" whereas Summer calls him "Flower" or "Blue".

-They are the second-youngest of the Mane 6 kids. The first is Sugar Pie, the youngest daughter of Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy

-Summer and Spring are each other's best friends and it's very rare to see them apart. Where one goes, the other will most likely follow; it's because of this is that they're called each other's shadows.

-Summer's very close to her brother Autumn whereas Spring's close to his sister Winter.

-Summer and Rainbow tend to bump heads because they're so much alike, particularly in the stubborn department. They're close, but they're more prone to arguing until Dash eventually booms "Alright that's it! TO YOUR ROOM YOUNG LADY!" It's because of this that Summer usually goes to her cooler-headed mother for advice or when she's in trouble. In contrast, Spring tends to seek out Rainbow when in need of support or advice, mainly because she's really good at boosting self-confidence and he enjoys being sheltered underneath her warm wings.

-Spring Blossom looks and acts a lot like Rainbow's father, to the point that she calls him her dad's mimi-me. Rainbow Blitz (Rainbow's dad) is more than thrilled about it.



And there ya have it! I hope you guys like them, and feel free to ask me any questions if you have any! ^.^
