Those expressions! XD

He wouldn’t need puppet strings if he was just going to poof off Big Mac’s dick.

Discord sure loves pranking ponies, though timing this for when Applejack was in heat might have gone just a wee bit overboard.

So does she realize that Discord is forcing Big Mac or does she think her brother is randomly raping her? Does Big Mac even know who is controlling him? That could be hard to explain later if he doesn’t.

Very happy to see that “body control” is now a tag! We need to populate it with lots of images now.
 
@Rpground  
Rape is definitely always dark but the thing is grimdark isn’t an either-or thing. It needs to be both dark AND grim for it to be grimdark and most of the rape you see in art isn’t really grim at all. This one here is a perfect example, there is nothing grim about this image so there is absolutely no reason for the grimdark tag.

I’ve never understood why we group “grimdark” with “rape”…they are one in the same…
 
Shouldn’t grimdark be…well…actually DARK, you know? I mean, yeah, it’s rape…but it’s obviously portrayed in light-hearted manner here…I don’t know, but when I see the “grimdark” tag I think more on par with something like Cupcakes or Smile HD…
 
Maybe it’s just me…

no no here’s what’s really going on
 
bm: “where the buck did mah dick go?”  
aj: “where the buck did your dick go?!”  
ds: (ehehehe)

It’s also the cause of every war ever.

>people discussing if this is mind control  
>people showing others they don’t know what they are talking about  
Then again, fuck it, people mistagging and misunderstanding what words mean is a noble and ancient pony imageboard tradition, so whatever.

@FreeBacon  
I am surprised “body control” is not a tag, I’ve definitely seen a few other images showcasing it here. Can’t recall any of them now though.

@Background Pony #BA2C  
Well I don’t know of any existing tags for “body controlled” so until one is found that does make this the only one with it, week probably start with this one.

This is definitely rape, in fact it’s a rare instance where BOTH copulating parties are being raped, but I wouldn’t call this grimdark. Then again, most of the things this site labels grimdark I would not, so it feels like you are all using a very different definition of it from the one that is commonly understood.
 
Also not sure what the mind control tag is on this for- Big Mac is being bodily controlled, but he appears to still be in full control of his mind.

I’ll have to side with Alara on this one that it is rape and grimdark. While it is possible that Applejack is willing, and she’s only complaining because Big Mac has stuck in ‘in the wrong hole’ as you first commented, it is quite obvious that Big Mac himself is oblivious to everything going on and is being controlled against his will by discord into having sex. Or applejack is being controlled by Discord and just found herself flying backwards into Big Mac, who is quite confused by everything, _but I’m fairly sure Big Mac would have quite a different reaction if some mare suddenly shoved herself against/into his cock.
 
So regardless if its both unwilling or one pony unwilling, it is still rape in all possibilities shown in the image.

Translation note: since some seem to have missed it:
 
None of the Japanese in this picture is dialogue or narration; it’s all sound effects. Sound effects include “Pon pon” which in this context is kind of like “Thump thump”, “fui” which is an arrogant snort (like “hmph”), “pu pu pu” which is a villainous chuckle, “biwat” (phrase ends in little tsu, which isn’t a real sound per se so much as it is a hard stop, best rendered as a t but it isn’t really a t, more like you’re about to make a t and then you stop before you do it) which is a squishing sound, and some sound effects that my dictionary claims are for eyes closing, but considering where they are on the picture, I don’t think that’s what they mean. :-)

@BigMax  
I can read Japanese, which is why I said that the characters on the image are only sound effects. There is no dialogue present.
 
And in the absence of context, you have to go with what is reasonable and normal. it is reasonable and normal that if one character is shown being mind controlled, and the other is shown screaming and with tears in her eyes, that in the absence of dialogue to explain how it could not be rape, it has to be assumed to be rape. Also, this artist draws a lot of rape, which is context, albeit context from outside the picture.

@BigMax  
Neither can we be sure that most illustrated, low-porn is not rape.  
The context we have here is the fact that Discord is present, is apparently controlling one sibling, the other appears very displeased with the situation, and both are confused. All of that suggests, reasonably strongly, that it’s rape.

@BigMax  
When either one of the parties clearly does not want, its rape. :T

@Alara Rogers  
You can’t be sure it’s rape because we have no context.  
Can you read Japanese, to be sure?  
But if you’re so sure it’s rape, suit yourself.

@BigMax  
How exactly is it not rape? Applejack is screaming with tears in her eyes, Discord is puppetteering Big Mac, Mac looks confused and dazed and like he has no idea what’s going on…and the artist is Nekubi. Definitely rape, and needs the grimdark tag back on.
 
BTW, none of the Japanese characters on the image are anything other than sound effects. There’s no dialogue or narration here to translate.

@Background Pony #473C  
Doesn’t look like grimdark to me.  
Something odd is definitely happening, but Big Mac looks pretty calm.  
I’m not even sure that’s rape.

discord controlling siblings into rape?  
ye sure why not.

@BigMax  
The hell you remove grimdark for?

“IT’S! THE! WRONG! HOLE!”
