So before everyone has a fit over me forgetting her cutie mark, I didn’t.  
Buckball is supposed to be like an Apple Family thing, so my guess is AJ probably mentioned it to her lil’ sis at some point, and I’ll bet when she did Applebloom immediately jumped on the idea of getting her cutie mark in buckball. So, 2 weeks after the buckball episode, and over a year after Applebloom getting her cutie mark, here’s a picture of her playing buckball without her cutie mark.  
And I will revel in my lateness! EVIL Laughter!  
That aside though, I’m so happy with how this turned out, and it’s probably my favourite piece to date. Applebloom isn’t my favourite crusader (I LOVE YOU SCOOTALOO!) but for some reason she just brings on good vibes. Hopefully I can keep up this standard.  
Anyway, as always, comments, feedback and pretty much any other recognition I can get in this barren world that is the internet is always appreciated, and I love you all so much. Thanks!  
Have a great day!
