I'm super happy that you allowed yourself to reach out and get help. You're worth being here, everyone is!

I totally would expect a bit of a resolution in the next episode. They can't expect us to believe they rebuild the campsite and then don't visit the tree room and notice the six pieces of wood.

That COULD lead to some interesting further story developments and provide episode content; Twilight trying to figure out what those artifacts are. ... Well, we can just wait and see and maybe get more surprises. ... Actually, this episode was a good example of how a totally predictable start can make an unpredictable ending hit so much more of s surprise. That evil-Twilight image up there, that's basically a reaction pic. It was a bit of a Magical Mystery Cure moment where we can just enjoy some pwnage instead of inflated, dragged-out drama. Interestingly, it had the same cause/incentive for the writers: time constraints to a single episode.

That would lead to an interesting continuation.  I just expected more from an episode starring Chrysalis, I guess. I think I can declare this episode a least favorite. The calm and relaxing episodes are nice, but I don't think they are good for any kind of finale - mid-season or not. There's no cliffhanger that makes me want to see what happens next. If they actually showed the mane six making their way to the tree and finding the pieces of wood there, it would've been a different story. Now it's not guaranteed that they are going to start the season where it left off and aren't just going to drop everything that happened.

Rarity was definitely the most vexing to me. She specifically said she didn't do what she had been accused of. A perfect moment for Twilight to go: "Wait a moment, what's going on here?"

I guess the writers wanted to really hit home with the message how the power of their friendship is like an unstoppable force of nature at this point where they don't even have to bother investigating attempted sabotage. In principle very beautiful, just in execution clumsy, as so often.

I suppose so... but in my opinion, it made the whole episode boring. The episode seemed unfinished because they didn't bother investigating what happened. Their friendship may be strong, but in the world of Equestria, it feels dangerous to not figure out what happened. Especially with the Chrysalis still on the loose. Now, they wouldn't accuse the changelings since that problem has been solved. But Chrysalis could easily play some other game with their minds, which she did; they just didn't bother finding it out. It was a really weak mid-season finale and it sucked the excitement right out of me.

"And nopony cared about..."

My thoughts EXACTLY. The plot just... ended in smiles and laughter. There's no clarification of what happened to all the disturbances. Everyone just turned their mood around, accepted what happened or didn't happen and didn't question the confusion. It was just... over. 

The sister you never had? I really like that title, no one has called me that before.  Happy (belated) anniversary to you!

 Cherrbun! Yeah, now you are going by that name no thanks to my own mistakes  

1.- That you aparently don't mind being called "Nae" :>

 2.- Orange. I blame Cherryhorse for this.

 3.- Fire, because just like @Kelldrick, you are on fire B )

 4.- Pinkie Pie!

 5.- In regards to the first point, why Nae? Just curious, I'm like confused at that and like  

 6.-  Counter question, I have to try to find something not tolerable about you. And that's... you're too nice! ..I'm not original, okay?  

 7.- "HEY, HEY, HEY. *drags you around* LET'S SHIP SOMEONE"

 8.- You know, I'll just avoid the evident cherry reference here and say that you remind me of cheese! Why cheese? Because cherries are too easy  

 9.- You call me senpai. Hey, it never said it couldn't be true  

1. I actually thought about removing that part from my information, but.
2. And you love oranges. Coincidence?
3. Buuuut... fire is fierce. Something I'm definitely not.
4. I mean, I'll take that...
5. Because that's my "secret" name when I'm not comfortable sharing my own. Which I am at this point, but, yeah.  Anne > Ane > Nae.
6. Aw, you are too nice.
7. ...
8. Thank you. I like cheese and cherries are too easy. Way too easy. Thank you for your effort.
9. Lightu Wingu Shipmaster Senpai-kun, to be exact.

Nom.

1. I learned that you're a big Cheese Sandwich fan. I like cheese sandwiches too  
2. I'll go with red because strawberries and cherries are red.  
3. Earth, you come across as kind of serious to me (not in a bad way though!)
4. Orange, mostly since your avatar has orange in it.
5. What kinds of songs do you like to sing?  
6. I think you're a great artist! 
7. "Are you going to bring all 8 of your cats? I love cats but I think that's a little too many even for me! "
8. Again cherries, because it's in your name obviously    
9. You like to collect things.

1. The pony as well as the food, correct.  
2. Fair enough.  
3. That's something different.  Usually people (well only my friend and I have talked about this) consider me water since I'm a caring person. I mean, I am a "down to earth" person?  
4. Did you mistake "pony" for "color" or is there actually a pony with that name?  
5. I don't really sing for public, I tend to just sing whatever song is on or on my mind. Varies from "normal" songs to My Little Pony songs, or even the lyrics to an OST.  
6. Thank you, I appreciate that.  
7. I'm planning on bringing only one of my cats with me. She's my baby, she's mine. Thus you would not have to worry about that, if you were my roommate.  
8. And again, fair enough.
9. I do...  

...SO MANY EMOTICONS, MY BAD.

Pudding.

So dramatic, love it.  

Oooh, I love that.  

The first 31 members you could think of, I believe a majority of those were in the Swirly army.

Anyways, @Chrysalium dresses up in a creepy costume and scares me.
