Shipping Opinions #5: FlutterPie

The ever-so-rare, yet ever-so-sweet pairing of Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie is one of my favorites.

I'm honestly surprised that this isn't one of the more common ships within the fandom, because all the pieces are there for what could be a very cute relationship. Fluttershy, the Element of Kindness, and Pinkie Pie, Laughter, seem to go hand-in-hand (hoof-in-hoof?). Both of them want to make other ponies happy, they just have different methods to achieve the same result.

Furthermore, it does seem as though Pinkie takes special consideration for Fluttershy's feelings. If one watches the episode "Griffon the Brush-Off", one sees that Pinkie Pie doesn't want to pull pranks on her shy friend because she knows Fluttershy couldn't handle it.

Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie definitely deserve more shipping love.
