Description
Art byI noticed that Applejack's method of harvesting apples is by kicking the apple trees. What if the apple trees can talk and walk?
Any comments?

Also, just a scene I think fits well immediately after the comic:
Applejack:
"You wanna play rough?! OKAY!"
[Takes out flamethrower from under her bed]
Applejack:
"SAY 'ELLO TO MY LIL' FRIEND!"
[Later]
Applebloom: "Big sis', what's that new trophy thing hangin' on our wall?" [Points at a charred tree trunk]
Applejack: "Just a lil' annoyance tha' I dealt with, lil' sis. Nothin' ta worry about."
[And no other apple trees in the orchard ever complained again]

Yep, besides, I never think Applejack the type with flamethrowers, like what for, burn down her crops?

Flamethrowers are quite commonly used in dealing with excess foilage and pests, apparently.
"Flamethrowers are occasionally used for igniting controlled burns for land management and agriculture. For example, in the production of sugar cane, where canebrakes are burned to get rid of the dry dead leaves which clog harvesters, and incidentally kill any lurking venomous snakes. More common, however, a driptorch or a flare (fusee) is used."

In her case, it's for clearing pests, like a walking angry apple tree.

Interesting...
Speaking of an angry apple tree, what the heck is an talking tree is doing in Applejack's farm?

Supposedly, in magical fantasy worlds for kids, talking creatures and plants are supposed to be a mandatory part of the ecosystem. The artist is postulating what would happen if this applies to Applejack's apple trees as well.
Needless to say, hilarity ensures.

Ha!
We've seen the ponies in full gallop. We've seen them running from monsters.
But when they're running away from seemingly impossible beings, they go it human style xD

I'd expect a tree to be made of sterner stuff, but then again, Applejack IS the strongest of the Mane 6, so...
