Back in Black by AC/DC

True, true. Just make sure that you're careful when you are "reckless".

Oh, ok. I'm sorry if my blog isn't up to snuff.

What was? The episode, or my blog entry?

The episode starts off nicely, with Starlight and "The Side Four" so to speak, being rewarded with medals of valor. However, Discord, the sneaky little $@#%?!, makes Twilight feel insecure about her teachings to Starlight Shimmer, driving Twilight to the point of asking for advice from Princess Celestia. Usually Celestia is the best possible pony to have in a time like that, but she (accidentally on purpose) makes Twilight think that she needs to graduate Starlight and send her off, just as Celestia had with Twilight. Twilight ends up announcing that Starlight had graduated, but they both agree that they're not ready to separate yet. Amid good puns, emotional teaching, and an overreacting purple alicorn, the episode is an important installment and a great way to kick off the new season of MLP:FiM. There are three main points of the episode analysis, which I will break down. 1. Twilight was already worried about her teachings. As we see in the beginning, Discord plays some mind games with Twilight and eventually makes her insecure about the roster of friendship lessons she has prepared for Starlight. As much as we would love to blame Discord for her (supposedly unfounded) fears, the real reason is buried under there: Herself. Twilight Sparkle is too strong of a pony to be shaken by Discord’s petty tricks. In her heart, she believes that her lessons will only be good material for another few moons, and then Starlight will be ready for more. 2. Celestia is trying to teach a major lesson here, people! This very well could also be one of Princess Celestia’s cryptic lessons. For instance, she emphasizes how it is Twilight’s decision whether to send Starlight away. That in itself is evidence somewhat that Twilight is being taught a valuable lesson about teaching! As per frickin usual, Celestia is doing it in what's practically code. Celestia is trying to make Twilight a better teacher so that she can make better choices about Starlight Shimmer. 3. Starlight is also worried. This should be rather obvious as a bright unicorn such as Starlight Glimmer would be expected to be thinking ahead of even her teacher. Starlight knows that little friendship lessons can only be actually useful for another maybe year, at a stretch. She also knows that Twilight was sent away, and she doesn't want that just yet. She is hoping instead that Twilight had prepared more advanced lessons that would further educate her in the subject of “The Magic of Friendship” and help her learn more life skills.

Honestly, nobody understands that as much as my father. After my parent's divorce, he has strived to become a better father. That is something every man should put at the top of his list.

I think the point of the whole "dating" thing is to have some experience with people and be able to know several people before you really start looking for a lifelong partner, playmate, and friend. Divorce should never be necessary if you know what you are doing. I myself am dating right now and it is my 3rd girlfriend, and I find that it is definitely temporary. I hate to make assumptions, but this is only a person to hang out with and not to marry and have children. I am only seventeen and I find my peers already talking about marriage and having kids. I love the philosophical discussions that happen in this forum.

I would run and wonder what the hell rarity is doing outside of MLP:FiM, probably screaming.

You are both accepted! And yet this RP won't start for a while, I will PM you when it starts!

I'm waiting for maybe 4-6 more people, so we might start in 5-7 days. You don't have to pay attention to this RP until I PM you when it's ready.

Cool? I guess. It's interesting.

Glad you could join.

May I join? I have 3 different characters ready, and each of them I could use, depending on your preference.

@Scribblegroove My character, Rainbow Sun, would work for mage. I don't know if you didn't look at my earlier comment or what, but the mage role is what I would like. Here's Rainbow Sun:

"A dark power." Said Luna. "One that has been dormant for many moons and is coming to once again terrorize Equestria." "What is the dark power?" Said Starlight, looking concerned. "The Sentry." Luna said.

@Golbez You made a very cool OC. My kind of pony.
