Cutie Mark Laboratories - Is Vinyl Scratch Mute?

Ойын-сауық

Got questions for Science Pony? Ask them here! / ask-scienceponycml
Background ponies don't usually talk, but in the wake of relatively recent changes to that formula, such as Rainbow Rocks and Slice of Life, we manage to be confused by one pony's continued silence: Vinyl Scratch. Theories have been tossed around about her simply being mute, and rather than simply having nothing canon to confirm or deny, the canon information itself seems to flip back and forth. So what's the verdict? Science Pony is here to figure that out... if he can.

    The fact that we see a soundwave in Vinyl's glasses at the end of Music to My Ears, to me, serves as (admittedly flimsy) evidence that Vinyl has synesthesia, in this case she can "see" sound. Synesthesia is a condition that often develops in people deprived of one of their senses. So yes, I believe that Vinyl Scratch is mute, because she's also deaf!

    I am leaning toward she is shy because in "Equestrian Girls: Friendship Games", during Rainbow's speech, you can see her chanting. Granted this could be her pretending but not in my head cannon. She doesn't talk because she is very shy about it but her overall personality is outgoing because in "Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks" she is very willing to help. The mane six did save her life and many others but still. I probably should've ranted in a separate comment srry

    Can't beleive i only just found this video (actually i can, since i used to work 60-80 hours a week and barely online until recently) Anyhow, your last point could be valid. In people with certain speech impediments (stuttering and the like) they often refrain from speaking, rather than risk stumbling over their words. However, i believe one of the writers let slip sometime in 2016 that Vinyl doesnt speak because she doesnt like talking, however since i myself didnt hear it, and the video's always have poor audio, i wont cite it as fact.

    Disclaimer: This is based on what I've read, seen on a documentary, and House MD. I'm likely wrong on the finer mechanics of deaf mutes. Bass heavy music is apparently pretty popular with deaf people (the ones born that way) since they are able to feel the vibrations of the bass and can "hear" it that way. Most if not all people born deaf are also effectively mute. They can still make verbal noises, but talking is highly difficult since they can't hear others or themselves. Which makes initally learning how to make the corresponding mouth movements and vocal cord noises, as a child, to simply say their own name, highly difficult. You've probably seen/felt the effect of not hearing or having trouble yourself speak has, if you've had ear plugs in (or in an especially noisy place), and noticed that your tongue movement is a little off. Specialized coaching for them to verbally speak while deaf, takes a lot of effort. Though honestly, who DOESN'T like the feel of loud bass vibrating in your chest while at a concert or club?

    Also, considering that Scootaloo was physically disabled (unable to fly (beyond her brief hovers)) by Lauren Faust while she was still drafting the world, it wouldn't be too far fetched for the writers to have another disabled character. In addition, Derpy has a pretty prominent physical abnormality in the form of her skewed eyes.

    I've always loved the headcanon that Vinyl is deaf. I would like to kindly point out that, while you did get most of your information right, one part you are (slightly) misinformed is that most deaf people are mute. Firstly, the term *deaf mute* is offensive to the Deaf community (I'm pretty sure, I'm not deaf myself). Secondly, most deaf people are not mute, whether they were born deaf or not. Most people who were born deaf and were raised to be Deaf, however, don't like using their voices very often, for the exact reasons you listed. They can't hear themselves or others, and they would need to go to speech therapy to learn how to form the different verbal noises that they've never even heard before. But besides my nitpickiness, I very much agree with your thoughts; Vinyl very well can be deaf, and that's why she doesn't speak.

    Well, in EQG1 and 3, she did at least MOUTH the words to This is Our Big Night and CHS Rally respectively, as well as in Simple Ways when she shushed Pinkie... And in Magical Mystery Cure, she did laugh at Spike. Sure we didn't actually HEAR her, but... I think she's not mute, she just prefers not to speak. Season 6 is a good chance, but the Nowacking theory is the most evident.

    What about in the episode Magical Mystery Cure? When Vinyl was watching Fluttershy fail at making them laugh, she started to laugh with the other ponies when they saw spike dancing. Laughter might be more of an action rather than actual words, but still, sound had to have come out of her mouth for that to happen. And well there wasn't an assigned voice to her in that moment, it still implies that she laughed. Whether or not she was heard doesn't really matter, or does it?

    Button Mash isn't an OC. He's a background pony that had a couple (very well done) fan animations made about him, so he got really popular. Granted, him appearing in Slice of Life is probably a nod to said fan animations, but still, he's not an OC.
