It had been 20+ years. I take it to believe given Grand Pear knew who the apple kids were he and his daughter stayed in contact, and possibly even come to peace with her choosing to be an apple (I imagine Granny would be a LOT more angry with him if he had never bothered to reconcile with his own daughter before her demise) but was simply to prideful to leave vanhoover and see his grand kids until recently

It's a sad episode but let's not over play the drama

>>
>>30356840
Whoa, I remember the coffin but an ash urn? When was that, like the episode that is?

And we know that death exists, but it never is explained if it is natural or unnatural death. What I mean is that ponies are morbidly scared of the Everfree Forest because of all the monsters that lurk there that could kill them. This is heavily implied. Why be afraid if you couldn't get hurt?

But we still don't know if age in itself is a factor of death because we know every single pony can out live anyone here on earth (in real) by a factor of 1000 years.

I don't know if AJ's parents are dead but if they were to of had died, I would assume based on what we know, it had to of been tragic.

MAYBE, very unlikely but maybe, their love burned out and they divorced. But do you really think they'd both just abandon their family?
>>
>>30358263

Did you watch the episode? It is implied, repentantly, both by the reaction from ponies discussing the topic of the parents to the apple family children and how the children behave when they speak of their parents, especially AJ.

To conclude they're dead is similar to not making a bet at all — a safe guess.

'Dear Dad,
I know it's been a while since the last letter, but Sweet Apple Acres has been busier than a beehive after Winter Wrap-Up!
All is well with the Apple family in Ponyville; Bright Mac is working the South field, Granny Smith is preparing for the Zap Apple harvest, and I've been busy with the foals and making preserves.
With Granny getting older, and me busy making sure little Applejack doesn't get into the pigpen again, Bright Mac has been taking on more responsibilities on the farm - a little too much. At one point, he was so tired from all the extra work he was putting in that he almost bucked the outhouse down, thinking it was a stubborn tree that wouldn't let go of its apples. We laugh about it now, but Granny chewed him out something fierce for pushing himself too hard, not to mention his assumption that she's getting old. Honestly, I think Granny Smith will outlast us both through sheer stubbornness. She's kind of like you, in that way.
It's hard work with just the three of us working the farm, but we still managed to pull in a good crop this year. Hopefully, as Big Mac, Applejack and Apple Bloom get older, I'll have more time for hooves-on farm work. Big Mac is always following his Pa around, and Applejack is rarely far behind them, if she's not watching me work and helping out in the kitchen, so I think the farm will be in good hooves for a long time to come. It's a bit harder to tell with Apple Bloom, but I swear, she has some of the brightest, kindest eyes I've ever seen on a pony. Whatever they end up doing, as long as they're happy, I'll be happy.
>>
>>30358438
You should come and meet them one of these days - they are your Grandfoals, after all, and I'm sure they'll love you just as much as I do. Bright Mac agrees with me that they deserve to know both sides of their family, so please don't let something as silly as an old feud or your pride stop you from being a part of their lives. I’ve already forgiven you, and you understand why I stayed with Mac, so what’s stopping you from being a part of my new family? These letters are nice, but I miss you, and want things to be right between us more than words on a page can express, so get your gosh darn flank down to Ponyville so we can make this right.
With love,
Pear “Buttercup” Butter’

>Grand Pear can only close his eyes and grimace at the letter.
>Carefully, he folds the well-worn parchment, before placing it back in its yellowed envelope.
>Rubbing his eyes, he looks out his office window at the starry sky above Vanhoover.
>He remembers how the years, and her letters, had worn him down.
>At first, he was happy with his new life in Vanhoover, making his pear products with all the zeal and enthusiasm of a Pegasus in an updraft.
>All the while pointedly ignoring any letters addressed to him from Ponyville.
>He was adamant that he didn’t care what had happened to his traitorous daughter, and shouted down any dissenting voice that said otherwise.
>He had a business to run, and no time for distractions.
>>
>>30358445
>Then, time rolled on.
>The business mostly ran itself, and his mind returned to his wayward daughter, so he deigned to read some of the letters that had remained unopened for many moons.
>He read to see whether she had realised her mistake in siding with the Apple Family over her own flesh and blood, and perhaps she was begging his forgiveness for her short-sightedness.
>However, what he found wasn’t the lamentations of a prodigal child, but the life of a young mare and her family, content in their lives of labour and love.
>With that, an old part of himself awoke, and he read through current life of his little girl with an attention that his pride wouldn’t admit to.
>And so, his life became these letters, and he lived for their arrival every month.
>Through them, he learned the idiosyncrasies of every member of the Ponyville branch of the Apple family.
>It turned out that Granny Smith was just as stubborn and loving as him.
>Bright Mac was as dutiful and loving a husband as Grand Pear could wish for his daughter.
>And Pear Butter, or ‘Buttercup’, as she had taken to being called, carried herself with a quiet strength and kindness that made his heart swell with pride.
>Her highs were his highs, and her struggles made him wish that he were there to soothe her troubles.
>But he didn’t write back; not at first.
>He loved his daughter, but pride and shame fought within him, preventing him from acknowledging to anypony but himself that he had done wrong.
>However, time wore on him, and his daughter started having children of her own.
>His first communication to her in years had been a short letter, no more than three sentences, to wish her and her first child well after a successful delivery.
>The staff at the warehouse didn’t know what made their boss give a spirited “Yahoo!” before shaking everyponys hoof, along with giving them the afternoon off that day, but it was probably the happiest they’d ever seen him.
>>
>>30358451
>He still had that letter, and the picture of his beautiful daughter holding his first grandfoal – a little red colt called “Big Macintosh” – that came with it, in his topmost desk drawer.
>She indicated her gratefulness at his willingness to still communicate in her next letter, and he kept up his infrequent - if stilted – correspondence with her, slowly becoming more comfortable with this development of their relationship.
>Her letters always included an insistence that he come down and meet his grandfoals, insisting that there were no hard feelings on her part but sadness that he was missing out on their lives.
>He preferred not to address those parts of her letters.
>Over the years, he found that his stubborn pride had faded completely, leaving only guilt and shame that he had let anything drive them apart in the first place.
>Unable to face his daughter, those feelings of shame only built as time went on, and his defence of his reluctance to meet her – that keeping their interactions to letters was enough – only compounded them.
>He told himself that, with time, he would overcome his shame and see her and her family – the one she insisted that he be a part of.
>However, it was not to be.
>This was the last letter he had ever received from his daughter.
>He remembered the numb feeling that overcame him as he heard the news, the world rushing away from his senses when he attempted to comprehend the reality of her being gone.
>Even though he had placed he in the periphery of his life for so long, it was jarring to lose her so completely; like all colour had been drained from the world.
>Inundated with shame, regret, and guilt, Grand Pear tried to shut himself away from the pain, from what his daughter left behind.
>>
>>30358460
>He tried to throw himself back into his work, but the company was doing just fine, having been built when he tried to escape the first time.
>Even performing his special talent couldn’t drown out the voice that ceaselessly listed all his regretful decisions concerning his daughter and her family.
>Her family… when he thought of them, the only people who could possibly sympathise or bring comfort to him, he could only think of the disservice he’d done them by trying to protect his own feelings.
>He could only see two outcomes of meeting them.
>On seeing him, he expected them to either not forgive him, meaning another part of his daughter would be lost to him, or they would forgive him, and that wave of shame would come crashing back down and drown him.
>Both options terrified him, but, eventually, he would have to decide: to do his duty to his family, or add another regret to his long list.
>Breaking from his depressive reverie, he turns back to his desk and takes the letter out once more.
>Reading over the letter one more time, a sad smile spreads over his face.
>In all those years, she had never given up on him, never stopped loving him despite everything he’d done, and he’d repaid her poorly.
>Not today.
>A look of resolve forms over his features as he replaces the letter in its envelope once more, leaving it on his desk before trotting to the window and looking to the sky once more.
>He might not be able to change the past, or tell his daughter how much he regrets everything he did, but he could make sure that her wish would come true.
“I’m going to make this right, Buttercup,” Grand Pear says. “If they’re your family, then they’re my family, too.”
>Two shooting stars streak across the night sky, leaving a bright trail heading South-East – to Ponyville.

I've been thinking that they just went on a delivery to some remote town, and wound up never returning, vanished off the face of the planet.
Kinda like the S4 episode "Somepony to Watch Over Me", but ending worse off.
It's also explain everypony's behavior towards Applebloom in that episode.

Yep. Losing your parents at an early age can do that to you, especially when it means you're suddenly an adult with a small child to raise.

Of all the mane six, despite AJ never had a decent episode of her own, neither a wide character arch to finish, a home to leave and come back to (Metaphorically speaking), she is, at least to me, the most rock solid characters in the show. She has flaws and strengths that aren't overplayed or turns her to a marry sue, at least it doesn't happens often, and she represents why tradition is valuable.

In almost every episode Applejack does something of value, or direct the group to the simplest solution without over thinking it like Twilight does. Perhaps I'm alone in this opinion, Applejack doesn't need a episode of her own (Even if it would be fun) and neither do I think the writers could develop her without broaching more touchy subject, like death.

Many have been correct in pointing out that she is a set character, she has almost no growing up to do. Her family helped her with that part, her parent's tragedy perhaps may of caused harm to her mind (Her short temper and that she lacks a solid education) and if this has caused her character to go through an emotional growth spurt then what is there left for the writers to do with her? Except playing her off as an background pony or lean-in for the other characters in the show to be helped to grow, that is.

Perhaps the single most important contribution Applejack has is her ability to help others to grow, which she did for Twilight in the second episode of season one.

I don't dislike the banter over Applejack being a background pony, but I do feel somewhat miffed that few identifies her worth without putting a thorn on it.

God shut the fuck up. It's like you never heard of support characters before. Or did you think the other mane 6 did stand up in a vacant episode for 30 minutes in your "good episodes"? Heaven forbids too if AJ's goal is in Ponyvile, or does that not qualified for a character arch? I'm sure Twilight can show Applejack how it's done cause she clearly met what whatever goal/dream she personal had before Ponyvile and isn't sitting anxiety at her castle in pure misery at not able to be more proactive in the world around like she could do as a simple student.

Applejack is a character that works in an interesting way, because her story already happened before the show starts.

So unlike other characters where you can see their progress as the series goes (lets say, Fluttershy or Twilight), some Appul episodes go in reverse, showing us a younger pony making mistakes and how did she grew to become the dependable horse we see today. This is also a reason why some episodes when she seems to act irrational feel so weird to her fans, because they are used to AJ being the adult of the group.

I'd like to point what episodes did silly appul right and which ones didn't but I really don't have time for that right now.
