Nearly a year later, Trixie x Maud isn't quite as bad an example, because they now have a mutual friend in Starlight.



SoarDash annoys me too, mostly because I prefer to ship others with RD, but also because, when the ship started, the only reasons anyone had for shipping the two was that Soarin was the main male Wonderbolt... and that was basically all we knew about him except that he liked pie (oddly enough, I find SoarJack to be rather entertaining). He got a little more development from S4 onwards, so there's that.



Of course, I ship Soarin' with Twilight, and that's entirely because of a really adorable fic with the two that I read. Which goes to show that no matter how unlikely a ship is, I can support it if it's well-written.
