Doodle a day #24, Scootaloo.
You thought she’d be on her signature scooter, didn’t you? But that would have been predictable. CMC daredevil (and president of the Rainbow Dash fanclub), Scootaloo is arguably the coolest of the Crusaders, even if her idolatry is a bit…misguided.
…fine, yes, I am biased. I already covered this. Moving on…
There’s a lot about Scootaloo that I wish we’d get more info on. I hope we find out more about her parents, or at least what her current living situation is supposed to be. So she’s got a house, and a room in said house. Is that it? I don’t want to go through another fly-by gut punch of a revelation like in Crusaders of the Lost Mark, where Applebloom’s parents are finally revealed to be…well, gone. And if Scoots’ non-flight is permanent, will they ever tell us? It’d be a good lesson on learning to deal with a disability.
Not that she lets it stop her, no sir. Those tiny little wings are still mighty powerful. She towed Applebloom and Sweetie Belle all the way from Ponyville to the Crystal Empire in a matter of hours, maybe less. Maybe her wings are just on sideways?
