Sindle

Maybe the Mane 6 will need her talent in stage magic to launch some kind of diversion for... Something. I dunno it ain't perfect.

The fish she feeds to the bears could very well just be fish who died of old age and she picks them out of the streams to keep them clean and fresh for drinking water.

A new cast of characters, by the time G4 will end the character arcs of the Mane 6, CMC, and Spike will most likely be done with, and continuing with them in a new generation after they achieved their destinies wouldn't be the smartest idea. Plus this is a long shot but by George I want a male lead in G5, I mean G2 had male leads, even if they were complete jerks to the girls. In terms of plot, I want would like G5 to be set many many years after G4 with a sense of time progression, new city states have sprung up, Twilight or a new duo of rulers now govern Equestria. New Guardians of Harmony have been selected, some being descendants of the original Mane 6 some not. Above all else, I want to see the same art style of G4 just updated and touched up. As much as I like this gen's looks having it repeat twice would just be stale and old. Maybe even get Rebecca Sugar to do G5, she'd do it just right.

Nightmare Moon exists because of reasons.

While Twilight's new castle does have a bad design if G4 is going to run for quite a while then we need changes like this to keep everything fresh. Plus once Rarity gets to work on that palace it will look exponentially better than it does now. As for the song, it's all four princesses singing what more could you ask for.

I would imagine Twilight is a huge fan of Classical music like Rarity. As for Pinkie I would say she loves J-Pop and K-Pop since it fits her the best.

In a rule 63 world. (Which I love the idea of) I think the CMC would be the ring bearers rather than flower boys.

I think that ponies tend to have fairly long lifespans stretching as far as 170. But I think the Mane 6 are immortal if they chose. If they chose to be mortal their element will be passed onto a new pony. Besides Equestria without the mane 6 it's a miracle they survived 1000 years without them with all that goes on in the modern era. I mean are we supposed to believe that nothing that chaotic like what goes on now didn't happen in the 1000 year period? Without the elements or Rainbow Power now I'd give them 2-28 minutes tops.

Pinkie Pie obviously gets her money from Hasbro themselves, they pay her to not cross into our reality otherwise the mane 6 would love their collector's value and they won't make anymore money off of Pinkie toys. I think I speak for all of us when I say; Hasbro give us out Pinkie.

Fascinating timeline except there's just one problem, seasons 1-3 take place in the same year and your timeline suggests they take place over the course of 10 years. Other than that it's amazing.

Oh he will be back. Do you think he'd just fly out of his owner's hooves only to not come back? Twilight cares for him and though their relationship hasn't been iterated on much, or at all, since his debut but Owlicious will take comfort in the giant crystalline tree castle.

When I first viewed the episode that character screamed OC to me. But I'm glad that he got his wish to be in an episode of MLP and hope he recovers. Plus we get another stallion in the show that played at least a minor part and those are few and far between.

It is fairly common for someone to experience a form of relapse, it happened to my brother after he quit smoking only for him to go back. So it isn't entirely OOC for Discord to go back to being a conqueror rather than the trickster. But I guess even Fluttershy wasn't enough for him to not Relapse. Frankly i'm surprised he didn't ask her to join him, as even when he went into it he struggled to want to lose their friendship.
