Description BG: [link]
Base: [link]
The Orange Family, of course.
From left to right (god fuck I'm betting I got it wrong)
Bumblesweet Nectarine, Mosely Orange, Sunkist Orange, and Ballarat Seedling (Babs Seed)
The idea for Bumblesweet being Bab's sister came from Spritz, but I chose a different color scheme to make her seem more like her parents, and her hairstyle was changed.
Bumblesweet Nectarine is a beekeeper in manehattan, she's very wise, but her bouncy nature hides it often, though she knows proper ettiquitte, she is considered eccentric.
Mosely Orange is Apple Bushel's brother, a very formal father, he and his wife often forget their younger daughter for their duties as high society ponies, though he loves her very much, she just doesn't fit into his perfect concept of a family.
Sunkist Orange is Applejack's mom's sister, and she works as a cocktail waitress, mostly at Mosely's parties, she cares about her daughters, and wishes for them to grow up into high society ponies like herself.
Ballarat Seedling is the misfit of the family, named after an apple, she is often teased for her odd name, and only calls herself it with her parents, prefering to be called Babs Seed. She's a very shy pony normally, but she wishes to be accepted, even if it means being the bully. She's neglected by her parents, but her sister takes care of her needs.

I love this headcanon so much! ^^

I was actually going to make a Apple and Pie Family Tree, and I was wondering if I'd be able to use your version of Bumblesweet in it?Β

*ahem* it's not canon, and they aren't standing together, they're on different layers and make no indication of recognizing babs, they're separated from her. Apple Dumpling speaks with a heavy Minnesotan accent and Half Baked's voice actor sounds too young to be a father. It makes little sense that they wouldΒ  be related and they don't seem like city types. It makes more sense that she would be the kid of the already established married pair of apples in manehattan, and as to why they would be far away from her is because it's established that they don't like country folk and would be in the back, and Babs would go to the front with the other children and sit next to applebloom as her friend.

I absolutely love this! I always felt that Babs Seed was the daughter of Mosely and Sunkist Orange, both being Manehattanites and all. I love your interpretation of Babs sister as well; Applejack did state that Babs could always confide in her sister.

(Also in my headcanon, Braeburn is the son of Aunt and Uncle Orange. His parents sent him to live with his relatives in Appleloosa, but he liked it so much, he decided to stay there.)
