aaaaaaaaaaaaa thank you!!!! im so glad you like it!!! I think I can definitely make the expression more expressive and get leg placement down better, but ah well! she's so freaking fun to draw!

Here's a quick drawing I just did of Pinkie jumping in joyous surprise! I don't know what she's seeing, but she sure is surprised and happy about it

It was crazy looking that up, because I knew France had been the second largest empire, but it really is incredible the sheer amount of land it had in its empire! I've never studied the decolonization of Africa, and now that you've said that, I'm curious! If only I weren't taking a whole bunch of classes right now I'd look into it Thanks so much! I can't wait to listen to them!!

Oop, I hope I didn't flood you with more info than you wanted! I just saw you said you were curious, so I wanted to give you as much info as I could

Hey! The ones I learned about in my course were mainly Algeria and Morocco, but I looked it up and the following African countries were once colonized or owned by France: French North Africa: Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia French West Africa: Ivory Coast, Benin, Mali, Guinea, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Togo, Nigeria, Gambia French Equatorial Africa: Chad, Central African Republic, The Republic of Congo, Gabon, Cameroon, São Tomé and Príncipe East Africa/Indian Ocean: Madagascar, Mauritius, Djibouti, Mayotte*, Seychelles, Chagos Archipelago, The Scattered Islands, Comoros, Réunion* All of these should be the modern countries names, not necessarily what they were called when they were under French rule. I put a star next to the two still owned by France today. If you want to see when the years during which each was controlled by France, here's the link. Obviously if you want more detailed info, I'd recommend looking somewhere other than Wikipedia, but this is a quick overview!

@Cursed-Fate Wow thank you so much for putting so much info in your response!! I find languages and their influences so interesting, so the French occupation of England is fascinating from a linguistic standpoint, not to mention how interesting the history is! (I'm a history major in college lmao, I just love history in general so much) I really do need to learn more about France's worldwide history. I mean, after all, it had a big impact on the place I grew up in! Yesss, I think I would love the food in France! Bread, cheeses, and wines are marvelous, and I've heard incredible things about French cheese specifically. I'll have to check out some of those musicians you talked about! If you have any songs in particular you think I should check out, please let me know!! Thank you again!!

Oui oui baguette! asdfjdflsjk sorry that was my first thought! I really don't know much about France. I should know more because I grew up in New Orleans, which was heavily influenced by the French, but despite that I know very little! @Cursed-Fate If you want, I'd love to hear some of your favorite things about France! I'm always excited to learn about other countries. Edit: Oh I just remembered, I learned a bit about French colonialism in Northern Africa and parts of the Middle East during one of my courses. Other than that, I think a lot of the things I think I know about France are probably stereotypes.

Oh heck yes! I cried so hard the first time I watched the end of the finale (as soon as that song started, so did the waterworks) that I practically missed it, so I tried watching it again so I could actually see it with my eyes, but then I cried all over again so I'm not sure if I've seen the finale without a veil of tears blocking the screen

I personally like it when any of the Mane 6 show difficulty living up to their element. In my opinion, it gives them more complicated characters and chances for development. I do think that sometimes, esp with Rarity and RD, they learn the same lessons regarding their element more than once, but it would frankly be unrealistic for core parts of their personalities to be completely changed after learning one lesson. I really appreciate how they're written like people, and people struggle to be their best selves. The best Rarity can be is a perfect representation of her element, but she is still just a pony, and a big part of her personality (as the creators wrote it) is her struggle to be completely selfless and generous. Oh, and I voted that she's AMAZING!

Welcome!!! It's great to have you here!

Yes exposed hooves, color: light purple!

Hey @bubbleteapony!! Is it okay if I start another one, or do you need some time to catch up?

Lmao!! Well, that's not what I was going for, but I'm very happy that you like them either way!!! Thank you so so much!! That one is my favorite too! The sheer joy in her expression brought me so much happiness to draw!! Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it!
