Story Title: The Haunted HillIssue: My Little Pony #31 (G1)Comments: Poor Buttons. She probably needs painkillers now.You may recall that Cotton Candy was made the “Ponyland nurse” (really more of a herbalist) in the story “A Worrying Time”. The doom daisies also appear elsewhere, in the 1986 annual. Not sure where they appeared first. Regardless, don’t step on them!
Well, they did weed out the doom daisies, which is good for public safety. The question is, on whose watch did the situation begin to get so bad? There should be regulations limiting the use and spread of hell-weeds, just ask Posey or any Crabnasty. Oh the recriminations and the learnings, they will be vast.
Incidentally, I love that Cotton Candy’s horse medicines are basically sugar lumps infused with distilled rainbow plant extracts. Somebody’s given this some thought!
