This was actually what I figured. If they'd let unrelated Applejack go with Sweetie Belle then why not a Big Sister deal for Sparkler and Dinky? Maybe Mom at to work? Same with Berry and her kid. If an only child wanted to compete with her mom, I'm sure they wouldn't say no. |

Y'all do realize it was called the SISTERhooves social. If we accept that Derpy is Dinky's MOM, instead of sister, then yea it makes perfect sense as to why Derpy wasn't there.
Jeez...this fandom sometimes.... |

Well, it explains why they don't look very similar. imokaywiththis.JPG |
| cthulhlu #638720 8 months ago |
Yep, this is almost what i was thinking, except it was more that Sparkler is a friend of Ditzy, and as Ditzy was in the crowd she wasn't running because her eye condition was Very bad that day, she could barley see in front of her let alone run |

This is adorable and very valid. This needs to be an official BB/BS advert. |

While I think bitching about canon vs. fanon is dumb, how does Dinky having a sister actually go against the "Derpy is Dinky's mom" thing?
Assuming that's even the purple unicron that everyone is calling Dinky not just some other purple unicorn because there are a lot of purple unicorns. |

Makes sense to me. |

This was my idea for it. Makes perfect sense to me. |

I don't.
This is just someone adding a touch of denial to another persons otherwise good picture. Anyone can add words to a picture, but apparently not everyone actually cares about trying something new. If you want to make Derpy into Dinky's mother then don't try to fit it into canon. Derpy's around Rainbow Dash's age in non-flashbacks. |

@AdrianBrony
I just feel this workaround concept shouldn't taint Derpy/Dinky. Disregard the canon where it improve the concept, don't do annoying workarounds. You just make things worse that way. People still enjoy things that disregard very significant aspects of canon, but that's partially because they make no effort to make up more complex explanations about how it's possible that they do fit well with canon. |

This is so very very D'AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! I definatly agree with coyotecrow4 that this should be a BB/BS advert |

Complex? Is this seriously more complicated than "half-sisters from the same father" or other similar fanon-repair suggestions? This reconciles the fanon and canon with an idea that is in keeping with Ponies' generally kind and civic-minded behaviour. Why be hatin'? |
| King_Maverick #639575 8 months ago |
Okay, who is putting in tags such as "Denial is magic" and denial? Because that's just coming of as very elitist. |

Ditzy is adopted, Sparkler and Dinky are biological sisters, they all have the same parents.
That would explain why Ditzy was there. To cheer her sisters on. |
| WatermelonRat #640065 8 months ago |
I love this idea. I'd rather incorporate this into fanon than just deny any relationship between Sparkler and Dinky altogether. |

Or we can consider the following:
>Derpy appears as an adult in Rarity's flashback. >She appears as a child in Cutie Pox. Only explanation: time travel. As such, I submit that Dinky is actually the older sister. |
