My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Yes she's bad, but bad as in good.

Bad as in terrible. She's prideful to the point of arrogance, is entirely focused on her own glory at others expense, and prefers flashy displays to practical solutions.

Just like Horus Lupercal.

My theory? She's going to backstab everypony and put Celestia into a coma from which she won't awake.

It's /always/ Rainbow Dash's fault.

You only say that to take the blame off of your beloved Blueblood. Everyone knows he's Chrysalis's accomplice. I mean, who else could have helped her replace Cadence?

Except when she actively picks her friends and morals over fame, saves Rarity's life, comforts Scootaloo, etc., and ultimately is a barely held together ball of self-doubt and fear of failure covered in a veneer of bravado and carelessness (that cracks quite often).

She's more sad than bad.

Ya know... Spitfire is a pony of many talents... and responsibilities. Member of the Wonderbolts, Head Dean of the Wonderbolt Flight Academy(or at least the one who oversees the freshmen ponies), and an inspector/overseer for the Cloudsdale water supply.

The real secret is that Spitfire found the cloning pond years ago and never told anyone about it, and was never found out because she's reasonably responsible.

Again, just like Horus. You know how he hero-worshiped Roboute? And that's not even Matt Ward writing that, folks.

Would the responsibility of the pony in question matter, though? The clones definitely seem to have a lesser concentration (even for Pinkie Pie), and seem to be a whole lot more emotional. Pinkie Pie didn't have a breakdown about not being able to spend time with all her friends - she was able to delay said breakdown so she could solve it.

Of course, not saying her solution was ideal. But she still came to a solution rather than focusing on the problem.

Pinkie's also emotionally unstable and prone to losing attention under normal conditions. Take someone who's already fit for a leadership role and while you wouldn't get any great ponies out of the pond, you would probably get some passable stand-ins.

Eh, maybe. We don't know much about the actual changes it causes. I'll give you the argument.

Suggest the first two are combined (might be head of the wonderbolts) and the third one isn't often. She might also have been chosen that specific year, and not every time; can't really remember that episode too well.

A not bad episode, and it gave me an idea for a timberwolf mecha.
I only hope the next episode does not dissappoint...

Also, the impossible has been done.
I actually found a fan fiction where I'm not just in it for the villain! This is the first time ... ever that I found something like this. Good show, random fanfic writer!

Thanks for this. The quality of this and the only other fan fiction I've bothered to read(still waiting for updates on that one, which was recommended aaalllllll the way back in the Bay12 pony thread) make me feel as though I should give them more attention...

Oh, I also caught up with the episodes awhile ago. I enjoyed them, so that's all good. The Timberwolf transformer's death was pretty silly, but eh. It's what you come to expect from a show about adorable ponies where rainbows are the number one threat to villains everywhere.

Rainbows are awesome and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Especially in Gamera vs. Barugon. Barugon's rainbow beam devastated that Japanese army and city that were most definitely not little toys.

I've been stocking up on prisms for centuries; rainbows are my BITCH.

I do not know of anyone named Lichette. Or are you referring to a female lich? I assume the former since I'd guess a lich would kind of want everyone dead like them.
