## Biography

### Backstory+

Fluttershy grew up in a poverty-stricken household with abusive parents - her mother, Flitter Fly, constantly physically abused her, and her father, Silent Wing, felt indifferent towards her. Due to the lack of income, Fluttershy was very underweight and had full meals solely in her flight school, where she also had her only friend Rainbow Dash. She earned her cutie mark by comforting scared wild animals after Rainbow Dash's Sonic Rainboom, representing her natural gift and empathy. Filled with purpose, she started a new life with her animal friends in a cottage on the outskirts of Ponyville, worked through her depression, made new friends and started living her best life.

### Main story

Fluttershy's first appearance is in 'The Party Pony', though she doesn't have any speaking lines. Unlike the others in Mane Six, who start to act differently around Derpy Hooves - except for Pinkie and Apple Bloom - Fluttershy's demeanour and opinions are never shown nor stated. She makes her next appearance in Meet the Team, where she meets Pinkie's  sisters, who have just arrived in Ponyville. Along with her friends, she is at first cautious around the sisters but becomes more sympathetic to them after hearing about their abusive parents and Minkie's imprisonment. But unlike the others, Fluttershy becomes scared of Minkie when the other maliciously smiles at her, though her fears get dismissed by her friends who think Minkie is just socially awkward.

At the end of "Apple Bloom Gets Her Cutie Mark", Fluttershy and her friends get invited to enjoy bakers' freshly baked cupcakes, which, unbeknownst to them, are baked out of Applejack. Fluttershy is once again the only one noticing the bakers' unnerving smirks and smiles at the dinner table, and her anxiety grows.
