Edit: DAH! Why has half of this been crossed out?! It won't let me fix it!
Well, like I said before, apologies for forgetting, my mother and I watched ‘The Return of Harmony’ last night and ‘The Cutie Mark Chronicles’ the night before. Believe it or not, she was the one who asked to watch it, instead of it usually being me. She said she ‘actually really likes it!’ Part of me exploded when she said that.
Both episodes were tons of fun. She pointed out the fact that I was literally trembling with excitement while we were setting it up and I was trying to explain who the CMC were. (Yep, I really do adore this show.) We laughed a lot with it, especially at Spike’s line, ‘When did you get so cheesy?’ The thing that made me lose it with laughter was when she told me, ‘Why don’t we just call the Cutie Marks bum tattoos?’’The Return of Harmony’ is always an emotional adventure for me. Being the Mane Six lover that I am, the bit when they split up understandably always gets me a lot. It took me a good five minutes for me to explain what the Elements of Harmony were and who resembled what. The big moment though was when I got extremely emotional at a certain scene. After laughing a lot at the library scene, especially at the fact that Rarity’s ‘diamond’ had the same name as me and the ‘Your face’ moment, the bit where they all split up, Twilight turns fully grey and a single tear lands on the ground in the shape of a broken heart, got me.
It got my mother a bit too though as well. She giggled at me a little bit but she knows the personal connection I have with this show so she understood completely. I wasn’t a blubbering mess like I am in private but it was still pretty obvious.
As it happens, this post is actually way longer than I thought it would be. The bottom line is, we had a great time watching the two (technically three) episodes together and it sure was a great way to spend a Sunday night!- Show previous comments 2 more

@Will Guide I tried that already. Just so long as everypony can read it, I think it's fine.
