I know you want to see Ariel gets obliterated from existence but i left this ending for a reason.
Am not gonna do anything anymore with her so, if you want, i let you do something with her.
I give you white paper, do whatever you want with her.
Free of charge adoption.
Ariel Past
About her past, she was a good fluffy in a bad position.
She grow in one of those ultra low quality shelters that makes abuse shelter look like an amusement park.
Since birth she was tormented and abused, but due to her relatively good colors, she was sent in the breeding pens.
All of her foals where bad colored, she saw each of every one getting killed in the most gruesome way by that shelter employers, then yelled and beaten almost to death for each one she made.
Her constant reminder was “Shit color fluffies are only good for eat shit and die”.
Ariel only ever had two “good foals”, two alicorns.
The first one was a rising sun pink/orange color, she killed it out of fear and got beaten badly for that.
The second alicorn was black and white like an Oreo and she killed it by hiding and neglecting it, thinking “these hoomins want good color monsta bebes, but this munsta bebe is a bad color, so i will hide it so they dont know it ever existed” but when the little corpse was found she got beaten even harder.
She was about to be turned into a milkbag/enfie toy when the shelter got raided and those few survivors, her included, got rescued and sent to recovery therapy.
Initially Ariel loved her foals no matter the color but soon grew into a fear then hate relationship, bc she gets reminded of her bad days.
She had a total of 52 batches.
Bestest and Coffee arent even her own foals, those two are rescued as well.
Bestest came first, she was so happy to have a good color foal thinking that now she wont get beaten ever again.
Coffee is a forced adoption, Russel saw how good she was with Bestest so he decided to give him to her as well, Coffee is still alive only for Russel presence itself as he “forces her” to take care of Coffee, but when Russ is not home, Ariel literally throws him in the litter box with occasional beats.
Am not trying to rise pity on her, just telling her back story.
Fun Fact:
Bestest doesnt have a proper name, Ariel never bothered giving him a name.
Bestest was bestest and that was enough for her.
I’m a bit torn on Ariel’s backstory, I think it might have been better if it was introduced earlier, or shown maybe as a flashback. Which isn’t a slight against your work, God knows I’ve started stories that evolve into something new along the way.
That being said, if dad had to force her to look after coffee then clearly whatever therapy she was going through wasn’t working and this was a doomed venture from the start
Well, it looks like Ariel was just continuing an awful cycle, Losing her babies due to bad colors and then getting beaten for even defending them
My best bet is that when the brothers watched out for each other, it triggered a PTSD flashback
She spoke out against the unfair treatment of her bad colored kids. She got the absolute crap beat out of her. Her former bestest baby Is now defending his brother and turn his brother is defending him.
Aside from PTSD she could’ve also felt envy due to the fact that the brothers were watching out for each other when no one watched out for her. Sorry for the long expose. It’s an interesting topic to talk about.
So it’s the owner’s fault then
force a old mare to face her trauma in the worst way possible,endanger both the foals and the mare
Irresponsible,careless and ignorant,and he have the nerve to claim that he love her and doesn’t know why all these happened
that’s not how exposure therapy work,and that man is not a great owner for her either.
he should not have pets that needs special care due to mental issues.
besides,her trigger can be so easy to avoid,pet owners who wants to have only one pet or only good color ones will probably be willing to take her.
he is the worst kind of hugboxer,the one that says “I’m only doing this for your own good” but clearly doesn’t know what they are doing.
She was put inside breeding machines, where she was pumped with hormones, medicines and sperm constantly till the monitors could detect presence of evolving embryos.
And she’s actually one of the lucky ones.
Some meres were turned into foal factory, forced to stay inside 24/7 even during pregnancy.
In fact, fuck this owner. Let’s just give Ariel a happy ending where someone buys her outta the shitrat pens before anything bad happens because they think a perpetually angry emo fluffy is totally epic, and then the “everyone said this animal was incapable of love but look at it now this is the sweetest best pet ever” thing happens because he didn’t trigger her traumas. Then have the owner come across them and learn firsthand what a shitty job he did on her rehabilitation.
Wow
