      NOOO! Ship Tacobob and Celestia..And Luna..oh yes. That would make me a DOUBLE KING. Which would be a good name for a buger joint.

  2. I wonder, in the world of Equestria, do stallions ask mares to marry them, or is it the opposite?

      Who knows? Could be either. Love works both ways, of course. x3

      I thought ponies reproduced by budding, including stallions.

      I thought their cutie mark magic just glowed and bonded them together in a magical display.

  3. So peeps, how cute was Starlight Glimmer in this episode?

      Once again I'll have to disagree. I feel like, no. She wouldn't try to lie and manipulate, that's what got her here in the first place. That's what got her to lead a group of ponies and take away their cutie marks, that's what got her to be the nemesis of Twilight. She learned that lesson. It felt very natural that she'd be like 'Oh god I don't wanna do this'. Starlight Glimmer IS all those things you mentioned, but at the same time, she's still just a pony. They have sides. Lying Manipulator Glimmer =/= Glimmer trying to adjust to something foreign. Everything she had done SHE had done, she controlled, now that she's not the one in control, it's scary and strange. I wouldn't remotely call how she was 'Timid and Shy'. Apprehensive and Nervous, yes. But I think it's silly to just flat out say 'Oh that's not her.' when we've only seen ONE side of her until now. She's not stuck in the box of what three episodes gave us, she's more than just that and I feel like we'll see 'Timid and Shy', 'Cunning and Smart' 'Tired and Confused' and other sides to Glimmer. Can't judge a book by just the first few pages, gotta finish reading.

      She never learned the lesson that it's wrong to take away someone's cutie mark.  She learned it's a bad idea to mess with time.  Nowhere did anyone ever convince her that trying to make everypony equal was a bad idea.

    4. Dubstep

      Dubstep

      I fail to see how that negates that there's more than one side to everyone. I also fail to see how she DIDN'T learn her lesson about stealing cutie marks and lying and manipulating ponies to get them to be "Equal'. But I feel that this will just continue to break down into a 'But this.' 'Ah but this' and go nowhere, so we'll just agree to disagree.

  4. Hey RP peeps, I need another thread with Cheerilee. Any suggestions for ideas or threads for her to join would be most helpful! Thanks! :)

      I mostly agree, except when you have conversation or a character is in a position that severely limits their actions... also longer is usually better, but Quality > Quantity and if it's all fluff that's irrelevant....

      It doesn't have to be a ship, the could just be meeting at a party for musicians. There is nothing to say electronic musicians can't mingle with classical musicians!

      Stop beating yourself up, your only limited by yourself. If you want a M6 then there's nobody who could stand against you.

    4. PedestrianWolf

      PedestrianWolf

      I totally disagree, sweetie. I've read some of your RP threads, and they're all very well written. You may not feel confident enough to try for a Mane 6 character, but you do fine with the characters you have. Don't doubt yourself so much, you're way more talented than you think you are. :)

      People are upset? Really? Wasn't the biggest fan of Equestria Girls, but I liked Brad Bradheart and I like his pony form. And I liked his cheeky smile he was flashing at Twilight.

      It can be hard to find a comment other than "I like this." I tend to just use the like button when that's all I have to say.

  18. I am enjoying the fact Sonata Dusk has become such a fandom waifu even though she isn't a pony but instead a monsterous Siren, who in her true form feeds on discord between ponies (but as a human, its tacos).

      Makes you sound sorta mean when you begroan a group for being popular, though some of them are kind of jerks, but a lot of them genuinely love the show and have no issue singing an episodes praises. The blanket of "It's for kids and can't be criticized" needs to be set on fire.

      There is thoughtful criticism and then there is nitpicking.

      Does thoughtful criticism often come at the cost of people's feelings?
