Alright guys, was finishing this up last night later than usual so I figured I’d queue it up for about 10:00 AM so you guys could see it without having to scroll through everything you missed during the night. And speaking of the night, today we have a blog about a bat pony! Ask Borealis!
This is Borealis, and as I said she’s a bat pony. Funny how we actually don’t see that many bat pony tumblrs around here much do we? Maybe I should do a week on them…
(Though don’t worry, she has a few of the other bat ponies of tumblr show up every once in a while, so she’s not totally alone.)
What does she do for a living? Well, I’ll give you a second to guess…
And you know what, it almost does seem like the perfect job, if it weren’t for the fact that unfortunately her skills as a bat pony…well…
….they aren’t exactly what you’d usually expect.
Still, she’s a very humorous pony who is willing to answer a lot of questions and due to her, it lets her end up in a variety of situations.
But even with her job, we still are able see the usual trappings of life, such being hit on…
Or trying to hit on others…
So as you can see there’s plenty of reasons to like this blog. As for me? I’ve always been a big fan of bat ponies (and yes I’m even a fan of seeing people ship that one pic someone made of a female bat pony Luna guard and the male pegasus Celestia guard. You know the one.)
The humour is actually funny without being completely random and the character can be adorable to watch without trying to fry your brain with cuteness overload. Not to say that those types of blogs don’t work, it just wouldn’t make sense in this situation. The character design also goes well with the subject matter, and she really does look like how you would expect a bat pony to look in everyday situations and conversations. Plus that red scarf was a really nice touch as well.
The blog’s art style and presentation fit well with both the character and the situations she’s in, and I’m very much looking forward to seeing more of Borealis. I’m giving the blog a follow and I hope you guys all do the same. Until next time, this has been the Pony Spotlight.

(Oh and by the way, yes we are trying to get to you all, we’ve just got a lot of requests and nominations for people not only asking for their blogs to be shown but their friends blogs as well.)
What’s that? Don’t I usually end these by saying “Oh one more” and throwing it up there? I have no idea what your–DISTRACTION!!
