Which Of The Other Mane Six Should've Been Made Princess?
Jedishy replied to Denim&Venöm's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
With that in mind I could maaaaaybe see her being the most authoritarian of the mane 6 if she became a ruler. Like she is so worried for peoples safety she passes a bunch of really strict laws to protect ponies. But not into the territory of full dictator. But definitely the most strict and by the book. -

I think he is a cool physical character but personality wise he is an example of the dangers of lack of growth and a mad quest for revenge. ( sorry I thought Id already responded to you )

So lets break this down 1. Choose to ignore that she is shown happy in the future. 2.Choose to ignore that non of her friends said she had to. In fact no one said she had to. They just encouraged her that she could do it. 3. Choose to ignore the fact that she has a mind and will of her own and can speak up if she wants. And that adds up to her friends and her mentor are bad people that didnt give her a choice and forced her.... No sorry math dont track. There was no peer pressure. There was only support that she can. Peer pressure is someone saying hey do this over and over. Not hey dont worry you got this new job you are gonna rock it. The fact is Twilight has shown she can and WILL walk away if she wants. That is shown in The return of Harmony part 2 when she almost left Ponyville. She CHOSE to drop being a leader and almost went back to Canterlot. But changed her mind. She said no. She can and will disappoint her teacher if she feels its needed and clearly that would have let Celestia down. But she went with it any way until she was shown it was worth it. So yea she can say no when she wants.

Did Twilight show regret in the future? Did she have the ability to say no? Did she have the ability to choose where she ruled from? The answer to all of thus is yes. They treated her like an adult with the ability to speak up if they want. Only children need a patronizing sit down to explain what having a choice is. Further the fact that none of her friends stood up and said anything is a huge neon sign that she did not have an issue with it. I mean that or we are assuming all of he people that claim to love Twilight just said the dont care about her at all and are gonna push her into something she will hate. And I dont think that lowly of the ponies I have grown to love. Oh and Luna the Great also makes a very good point. Sometimes duty trumps wants. So our little debate might well be pointless in the face of that.

If a grown person keeps saying yes when they dont want to that is on their own head. There was no force or trickery involved. She had every option to speak up. She chose not to. Do not reduce her to some blubbering filly incapable of standing up for herself. She and everypony else had choices and they made them. No one should need to sit you down and break it down barney style that you have choices in life. Twilight was smart and capable and had saved Equestria time and again. She sure could say no if she wanted to. Fear of failure does not mean you dont want to try. Could it have been handled better maybe. But I dont assume the characters dont fail to do things just because we dont see them on screen. Cause if that is the case most ponies never bathe and everypony is malnourished because we really dont see three squares a day. So maybe they had that talk and she wanted it and was just scared. Just like she was with every other oppertunity she was given. That pony feared failure not saying no. But one should not automatically shout bad person and assume malice or lack of care just because we dont see something. Especially when there are no signs of force or trickery

And that is all on Twilight. Celestia was her beloved teacher and if Twilight could not see the writing on the wall she was a fool. I mean flat out it was obvious from season 4 on that she was being groomed for leadership. Twilight still had a choice a hard one but a choice. If she said no its not like she would have been forced to. So she decided to take the roll. She decided to rule from Canterlot. And her friends decided not to move with her. Any of that could of been different. There was no manipulation involved. She was given tasks and offered power and she said yes at every turn. She could have at any point said nope im done. Gonna be an civil servant in Ponyville and her choice would be accepted. But she chose to earn the crown. No pony that seeks power is to be trusted with it. The one you train to have the skills to handle it and then doesnt want it really is the most worthy of it. And that made Twilight the best choice. But it was still always a choice. She was not goaded or made to feel bad. It was always here is this thing on the table take it or dont.

Part 2 As they approached SugarCube Corner he felt the ponies within. He felt excitement and deception. Clearly a surprise party was ahead. The pink pony in front of him twitched her tail and dodged an apple that fell of a cart that was being hauled by a pair of pegasi. In that brief moment he felt her in the force. Her presence almost knocked him senseless. It was like a cotton candy hurricane. Could he force even feel pink?! He had to draw on the force to center himself. This would surely be going into his report. The door swung open to a darkened room and some how Pinkie Pie was behind him pushing him inside. He didnt even have time to shut his eyes before the lights snapped on and the round booms with cheering and the shout of: "SURPRISE!!" The room was full it seemed most of the town had come out to greet the Republics representative at the center stood Princess Twilight Sparkle herself flanked by 4 other ponies as he was pulled forward by Pinkie Pie. He knew these were likely the famed bearers of the "Elements of Harmony" close friends of Equestrian royalty. Remembering his masters training he bent a knee and bowed low. " Greetings from the Republic Princess. I have be sent to see about your world joining the Galactic Republic. I hope my time here will bear the fruits of friendship regardless of your decision to join or not. " Twilight chuckled slightly and waved a hoof " Jedishy isn't it? Don't worry about formalities just yet. Today is a day for you to be welcome back. I hear that you grew up here. Somepony is quiet excited to see you again.... " He reached out with the force and felt her hovering above him. He knew her presence almost as well as his masters. Turning with a broad smile he barely opened his arms before a grey pegasus slammed into him. They hugged it out for a while before he stepped back smiling at the "older sister" that he had not seen since he left for the temple. Her lazy eye always seeming to do its own things. Even when they were little he found it cute. " Muffins?" She held up a basket of his favorite muffins cinnamon and apples. His eyes went wide he knew he would never be able to finish all of them by himself but there was a small part of him that despite his training wanted to try. Reaching into his cloak he drew a small pendant made of Wroshyr wood. It was a gift from a Wookie youngling he had saved in the shadow lands of Kashyyk. It was one of is most prized possessions. But it was time to let it go. And the smile that came across Muffins face told him it was the right choice. Attachment was not the Jedi way after all. As the party thrummed around him Jedishy was making mental notes of what he had to discuss with the Princess. That was until a tremor in the force flattened him. Something had or would happen and it was not something good.
