Taken from a previous post to some pony but I did not send it as it was out of context, we were discussing the possibility of Solar Flare (Celestia's version of Nightmare Moon) being the finale face off: I have not been to comic con but I have seen the animatic too. A time travel device is not far fetched in equestria and I agree with you that Starlight Glimmer (with all of her stalking) have learned of Twilight's past and went back to stop the one key event that caused her to be the princess of friendship and meeting her friends. Without the sonic rainboom, presumably Rainbow lost the race somehow and gave up her passion for racing and maybe, never got her mark or alternatively, the race to defend Fluttershy's honor did not happen and Dash never got to realize her passion. Going with the latter, Fluttershy may not have landed on the ground and may have moved to ponyville to live quietly on her own but never discovering her connection with animals. Without the rainboom, Pinkie would not have became a party pony and would have still lived on the rock farm with her family, maybe becoming more like Maud pie (personally, I love this idea as it would be fun to see the Pinkie and Maud act the same). Applejack felt homesick regardless but never understood the feeling so she stayed with her aunt and uncle in Manehattan. Given from what we know about Manehattan, it is safe to assume that applejack became more of a city pony than country and her mannerism will be very different, as well as her ethics. As for Rarity, she was literally dragged to the rock filled with gems but it never broke and so Rarity must have been left without her muse and her designer style of using gemstones. She might give up on her fashion and become like her parents. As for Twilight, she gave up at the entrance exam and never caught the eye of Princess Celestia. So who would have taken that honor of being Celestia's prized student? I am not sure, maybe Sunset? or Starlight? The nightmare Celestia is an interesting idea but I am not sure if we will see it at the end of season 5 as the card said "The day will last forever". It is the same as nightmare moon's ideology. Since Starlight is changing the Rainboom event, I am not sure if the ripple of time and space is enough to cause this to happen but it is a possibility. For the finale, going off what would have happened if the rainboom never occured. I am not sure of Starlight's motive. Messing up the past of Twilight and the elements of harmony. Nightmare Moon is the first villain that I think of that would have ruled equestria and silenced Celestia without the elements to stop her. Then there is Discord, Sombra... so I guess that the writers have a balance factor so that they do not have to write such a complex tale. Maybe another set of the elements of harmony that differs from the mane 6? Taking the idea from earlier, the unicorn that became Celestia student, became the new element of harmony's magic with a new set of 5 (as our current 5 is sort of unable to come to terms with their lives). They were the ones who saved equestria in the alternate world. Twilight... I am not sure how she would be as she is the main character, her memories will be intact. As for Starlight's motive, she wanted to give ponies true friendship. I personally believe that she believes fully that equality represents friendship. This idea is more of a feeling that one would get after spending a long time being average or having seen how skills had divided others apart. I am not sure how does the new mane 6 would fare but I guess that they did not go through the more impacting stories. So Starlight would still have her village and slowly, she is gathering ponies into her cult. That might be her motive, to get back what she believed was real friendship. It might be possible that Twilight and the rest are blank flanks or the mane 5 are and how they are not happy despite being equal. And also Spike would not be born in this timeline or he would have new mare to follow. Or Twilight and the mane 6 got their cutie marks in some way but they misinterpreted their marks that it made them feel what Starlight felt. The animatic tells something about cutie mark magic and how Starlight was just sitting in the friendship castle. I still remember her line when her village was ruined: "Let's see how they like spending the rest of their days without their precious marks." This is her revenge probably. On the topic of cutie mark magic, doesn't anyone remember Magical Mystery Cure? The spell that Twilight fixed that was originally Starswirl's unfinished masterpiece? What did the spell say again? From all of us together, Together we are friends With the marks of our destinies made one There is magic without end There is a high chance of this being something that might fix the mess that Starlight made. In season 5, we are starting to see more of background ponies being used to help the mane 6 and seeing more of foils for each of them. Also note the 3rd line: with the marks of our destinies made one, doesn't that seem like something like equality? What do you think?

Cooking is fine with me but I would most probably eat out more as I find it a little hard to decide what to prepare and researching carefully on how to make it. I can handle frozen food and also pre-made sauces but when making something completely from raw ingredients and I think I would be struggling.

Thanks for reading my feedback. I just would like to add a note to my earlier post. As you study proportion, you will find that people generally have a different take on the subject and that is what I would call an art style. Art style is subjective so people may like or dislike it, just remember it should appeal to you as that is what matters more if you find yourself overwhelmed with contradicting feedback.

I like what you have done. I can see the story and also getting me to think about it. I can say that you have a knack of presenting moments to a story and playing with the use of colors and shades. If you are looking to improve, I can recommend the study of proportion and the body shapes and muscles for a start. You are really good with your color choices and your art carries the story for itself. Keep it up

I think this song that I am going to suggest is not a typical "pump you up". It is more of a sentimental piece that I like. From the era of C-pop, enjoy

Hehe, thanks for all of the welcome messages everypony. Hello, CosmicSpark Thanks for your welcome message, I really enjoyed it. Especially that scene, and also... *ahem* BALD! BALD! BLAD! I am rather new to forums so I may need help with the features like private message and also a few other stuff that I think I could learn by experience I am glad you were with me as those who had experience generation one as our introduction to the series. I admit I was really questioning my choice of entertainment already in generation one and generation two merely confirmed it. I guess just needed a place where I don't have to hide it online. I would like to talk more if we find something interesting to discuss.

My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Pinkie Pie How did you find MLP Forums?: I was looking about for a good forum to begin getting started in the fandom. I am rather new to the idea of joining a forum and I have heard my friends who had their share of experiences in badly managed forum and bad members. I poked around using Google and I was looking for a friendly network to help me get comfortable. So here I am. How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: (Warning: Long story ahead, have a muffin)My childhood was not something that I would say I was proud of or have many happy memories that I can call back. One of the exceptions was My Little Pony. I can still remember my first episode from generation 1. It is right to say that I was hooked and from then, I watched episode after episode on TV. The episodes were not really mind blowing but I remember that the pony design was the main reason why I kept liking the series.As time went on, generation 2 and 3 came out. I have to say that it really caused me to waver in my opinion. The time of generation 2 and 3 was the time where shows that were marketed to girls dominated the TV world and I honestly lost interest and I gave up after generation 3, I gave it a chance and I regretted it.I abandoned TV after I grew up and I watched most of my entertainment online. Soon, I saw the new generation 4 of My Little Pony. My first thought was that how the design had a mix of generation 1 and 3 elements. There is a good sense nostalgia for me when I saw it but I worried about the focus on the series due to how badly handled it was back in generation 2 and 3. I found a time to watch it alone and I was blown away.I mean comparing to generation 1 since I regarded it as the time where My Little Pony was still decent, I feel in love with it once again. But it still had that element that I feel that was derived from generation 3 so I still have some concerns regarding revealing that I like the show openly. So since my first taste, I had followed the series and have been a silent fan until my enjoyment grew so much and I soon took myself to a forum to join the fandom. My name is Melke and I am (derpy was here) years old. I am a writer, designer and artist. I am currently studying in a course in Visual Communication design. I am mostly quiet and reserved. I am a contemporary thinker and I can get philosophical at times due my habit of excessively thinking things in my free time. I adore operas, classical music and arias; the music I like are mostly melodic (that means dubstep is a no-go for me). I can come off as a grump or simply someone who is really hard to get to show expression to things or hard to please. Please don't take this too personally but working in the creative industry does drain your acceptance to things that may not be of quality In party situations, I tend to hide in corners or find some ridiculous way to get away from crowds. My favorite form of entertainment is mostly escapism. I like Pinkie Pie most out of all of the Mane 6 as she firstly, gives me that healthy laughter vitamin that I could always do with. On a character level, Pinkie and I are quite the polar opposites: I enjoy the serene and quiet while Pinkie likes the loud and busy crowd but we do share something in common. We only wish to make our friends happy, even if it comes at our expense. I do not tend to have a large circle of close friends as I feel uncomfortable. That's pretty much all you need to know about me, I hope that we will get along. Also, you all deserve a muffin for having to endure my long wordy intro.
