Well, if we’re going to give the CheesePie kiddos some cousins on their mothers’ side, might as well go all the way with all three of Pinkie’s sisters! 

With Limestone, I went straight into crack ship territory and went, “Okay, but what if that Choosing Stone ended up pointing to that ex-Royal Guard that became an artist, Spearhead?” There’d probably be a funny story behind that where Limestone, disliking that doofus at first, tries to figure out why the stone would point to this guy. And then somehow spending time with him and getting introduced to his hobbies proves kinda therapeutic and Limey just softens toward him over time. 

Yadda yadda yadda, then Granite Pie, Sandstorm, and Flint Arrowhead arrive over the next several years. 

With Maud, she married Mudbriar, who was already her long time boyfriend by that point, and their relationship was probably the smoothest out of the Pie romances. There were minor bumps in the road concerning each others’ families, but for the most part, things went fairly well.

Slowly but surely, along came Rock Maple, Gravel Mulch, and Jet Black (in case you’re wondering, there’s a type of rock formed from decaying wood called jet).

And then Marble ends up with out of all ponies, Bluejinx. It was another Choosing Stone deal, with both parties feeling really awkward about it and Blue making it clear that he doesn’t like being forced into marriage with somepony he’s only acquainted with. They just agree to be friends at first; after the initial awkwardness and then some genuine friendship time, then they fall in love for real, which leads to more awkwardness when they remember the Stone and then eventually not caring and agreeing to wed. 

Born from them are Jasper Stone (only named so in honor of Blue’s late father), Crystal Clear, and Graphite Sketch.
