  1. Princess Celestia is also more competent than some Disney Monarchs, for example Sultan in Aladdin who was a buffoon, he did not even consider Jafar's actions as a red flag, an execution without informing him first, he lied of course, instead Jafar had Aladdin imprisoned temporarily so he could con him into getting the genie lamp for him, and failed, Aladdin survived and kept the lamp for a time before Jafar got to make his first wish. If Sultan had Jafar punished for treason first, Jafar would not have even made any wish, he would be dead, or at least locked up in the dungeon for the rest of his life. When has Princess Celestia in MLP done anything this foolish? contrary to Disney Monarchs, Princess Celestia in MLP actually does punish individuals for crossing the line, as one of her royal guards did to Zephyr Breeze by sacking him from his job which he failed to do, he had one simple task, make sure nobody goes through the secret passage, and he left his post, useless.
  2. Dragons are interesting creatures in mythology, they come in different shapes and sizes, Chinese dragon looks very different from European dragon, for example, has a longer serpentine-like body. How powerful dragons are depends on the stories told about them. In fiction they are often depicted sleeping on a bed of gold, their diet, carnivores usually, in Flight of Dragons they are also cannibals, as Bryargh was seen consuming eggs of another dragon.

      I’ve always been intrigued by different kinds of dragons.

      Yup, different kinds of dragons were discussed in a TV series episode of Courage the Cowardly Dog as well, water dragons for example, they don't breathe fire, but they are still very strong. It has been fairly common knowledge that not all dragons in fiction breathe fire for a while now. Even in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic, they can also make smog as seen in Dragonshy, which was similar to the episode of Samurai Jack - Jack and the Dragon, theoretically the smog is still dangerous, as it can block sunlight and pollute a nearby village.

  3. Night Sky I think it's very brave of you to admit to fantasies like that, wishing you could be reborn in Equestria. Some people get made fun of for daydreams like that. But our defiance against prejudice does help. There is nothing wrong with being cute. One reason I like MLP FIM so much is it's whimsical story telling, with its European folklore creatures in it, dragons and griffins.

  4. I don't hate Pinkie Pie from MLP FIM, for the same reason I don't hate children. Pinkie Pie is not a filly in season 1 but she expresses innocence that I find charming. My MLP fan fiction was partially about me wanting to have innocence of youth restored as well with the reincarnation of souls fantasy. The best adventures for me, are experienced with a pure heart, corruption brings pain to sentient beings, and that is not something I want.

  5. I think people forget that it's possible to serve a Ruler without agreeing with every decision they make, Princess Celestia would not necessarily punish somebody for not following orders unless it was a matter of security of her kingdom or if it's something that hurt other Ponies in Equestria, as she was about to punish Twilight Sparkle for the Want it, Need it spell, before vetoing her decision after her friends pleaded for forgiveness. No leaders are perfect. I think I would much rather serve Princess Celestia in the fantasy world of Equestria, than politicians in real life who seem to be bent on causing war all the time, I made that point thoroughly in Twilight Soapbox thread. Some people dislike Celestia for her decisions in the show, but compare her to politicians IRL, who perpetuate wars in the Middle East, murder people, destroy their property and rob them of their resources. I don't hate Princess Celestia at all, I've even got a few friends who don't hate her either. Why? simple, she is not a warmonger for one thing, and she would not send you to be executed just because you made an error of judgment, and although Zephyr Breeze is a selfish jerk, he was fired, not killed for leaving Canterlot castle unguarded. Sorry but for all the criticism she gets, I've seen far worse Monarchs in fiction. Some of the criticisms she gets are dumb if you ask me, yes she may not have the most robust military in fiction, however at least she does not promote aggression, escalating conflict and making other nations distrusting of Equestrians. Real life politicians invade other sovereign countries to deprive them of their resources, sabre rattle superpower nations, making World War 3 more likely with large stockpile of nukes, is that the kind of wilful ignorance to aspire to? certainly not. It's not that I don't find other Alicorn Princesses likeable, I like Princess Luna, however with her 1,000 years banishment in the moon, she would have far less experience as a ruler than Princess Celestia would do. If I get that far in my fan fiction, my OC, my imaginary self, would serve Princess Celestia. Perhaps some of the worst Monarchs in fiction would appear in anime, like Dragonball. Prince Vegeta keeps making bad choices that put heroes in the story at risk, like letting enemies reach their full power just so he can have a challenge. If he wanted to get more powerful he could do it through training, like Goku did, but he chose the stupid option instead, which is why I think, he represents a horrible Monarch in fiction. Saiyajins only ever survive their worst blunders in Dragonball through plot armour and luck. I cannot understand why that series is so popular anymore, not when its so called heroes repeatedly do selfish things that put others at risk.

  7. Another thing I used to daydream about although I may still do in future, is stargazing with Princess Luna from MLP. A peaceful existence like that would mean more to me than anything else, I don't care about getting rich. If I could be in that fantasy world I would not want to be a world conqueror or anything like that, nor impose anything on others, anything others did not want to do, I'd do myself or go without. A cute existence as a Pegasi there with other Ponies in Equestria, would not be torture to me at all, I don't care what anybody else says.

  8. A backup of a later part of my MLP fanfic post rebirth. On an Afternoon in Everfree Forest, a trio of Pegasi Ponies were out to get some exercise, and to appreciate the beauty of nature and the various friends of the forest that inhabited the lush surroundings, it is here, Fluttershy raises awareness about the hazards that exist within the forest also. She lets out "Um,  you may want to be careful around here, there is a creature known as a cockatrice, one look can turn you to stone."

    Rainbow Dash confirms with a smirk "I would listen to her if I were you, she knows a lot about animals, we don't want you becoming a statue!" 

    Dawnshine Wonder some moments later, as the trio of Pegasi move deeper into the forest, becomes a little too adventurous, she spots a creature off into a distance, it's a cockatrice, excited and with naive curiosity, she exclaims "That is so cute, I want to pet it!" as she walks toward the creature, failing to had listen to her friends advice.

    Rainbow Dash witnessing a disaster waiting to happen, exclaims in a panic "No Dawnshine, don't!" 

    Fluttershy responds "I'll get her" with a serious tone and then gallops toward Dawnshine Wonder

    Fluttershy with stealth like a ninja sneaks up on Dawnshine Wonder, then intercepts her by popping up in front of her, stopping her in her tracks
    And then begins using the stare on her, looking into Dawnshine Wonder's eyes firm and steady.

    Dawnshine Wonder caught by surprise, is shocked by the jump scare Fluttershy successfully pulled on her, then with her heart racing, clearly startled, realizes the gravity of the situation and how serious her friends were about their warning, lets out "Okay, I get the point!" before walking away from both the cockatrice and Fluttershy with her head down, with rose red cheeks as she blushed from embarrassment.

    Rainbow Dash witnessing this, can no longer contain her laughter, and she falls to the ground, rolling while laughing after seeing Dawnshine Wonder get startled by Fluttershy's stare.

    As Dawnshine Wonder sees this, still flushed with embarrassment from the jump scare she received, she lets out "I've never seen Fluttershy so serious before, this is so embarrassing!"

    Rainbow Dash after pulling herself back to an upright position, still giggling, smirks and lets out "You deserved it! We told you not to go near that cockatrice, but you went near one anyway, pay attention next time, you were lucky we were around to save you."

    Fluttershy overhearing this responds with concern, softly lets out with thoughtfulness "I did not mean any harm, I just wanted to make sure you were safe."

  9. That's so cute. You see this is why I like even Rainbow Dash from Mane Six in MLP. She is capable of compassion, aww.

      I love the dynamic between these two ♥

      Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash genuinely care about each other and I loved their dynamic in the episode titled Sleepless in Ponyville.

  10. You don't have to feel that way, I know other people feel like that too sometimes, even myself, I was feeling sad the other day, but I don't want you to go through that. Please if at all possible, find the motivation to keep going. We care about you.
  11. Space Jam, I was watching it on Netflix earlier. Daffy Duck just nonchalantly tosses the ball to Granny and gets her piled on by Monstars team, my reaction was like with sarcasm "Yeah we're going to pretend that is totally okay to do"
  12. If I still had the videos of what I did when I was younger I'd probably laugh at them too.
  13. I got to say Peter Dickenson in the movie Flight of Dragons reminds me a little of myself, he dreamed of being in a fantasy world as well, but when he actually did get his wish within the movie's story, it wasn't all what it seemed, and he had a choice to make, sacrifice his dream, or let Ommadon win, in the end he chose science over magic, but it came at a significant cost, and he was removed from the world of wizards and dragons forever.

  14. Pinkie Pie at her best in my opinion. Everyone needs a hug once in a while, take care of your family, it does not make you childish to show vulnerability, be honest about your feelings, both for yourself and others and love your friends in a way you'd want to be treated.

  15. If I were in that fantasy world of MLP FIM and was approached by Queen Chrysalis I'd probably say something like "I feel like a fish in a bowl that is being circled by a cat!" that may sound cowardly to say but the overwhelming fear of what she might do, well, that may leave some people questioning why I would want to be in that world. No world is perfect, people, if I could be reborn in that fictional world knowing there's a chance this could happen, I'd take that risk, what's an adventure without the challenge? moreover, friendship also means sharing their burdens, IMO.

  16. Pinkie Pie is such a cutie <3 Her bouncy and playful personality is one reason why it's hard for me to pick favourites with Mane Six from MLP FIM. I could not stay angry at her, look I know I may get called foolish for saying this, but yes, if I were in that fantasy world as her friend, I'd accept her for who she is, not what I want her to be. Even if she did something which irked me from time to time, like accidentally bumping into me and knocking me over, I'd still find a way to forgive her. Friendship also means not being too judgmental about quirks of others.

  17. Some of the best soundtracks were in movies or video games. But even non movie songs I find it relaxing to listen to Omah Lay - Soso I recommend Bandcamp, great music distribution site, lossless file encoding, and they don't charge too much either.
  18. Imagine if the fictional character Twilight Sparkle from MLP were to reform criminals in our world with mind control. That's a situation like in the A Clockwork Orange movie I think.

      I am strongly against mind control for any reason, well, except self-defense.  

    2. Dawnshine Wonder

      Dawnshine Wonder

      I know, the reason why I brought up the A Clockwork Orange example is because such a thing would be extremely dangerous if enacted. I'd be terrified of a government that had that power tbh, what if mind control did not stop at criminals?

  19. Got a new mp3 player coming, a better one this time, at an affordable price, nothing fancy, just something that works. My other one failed but it's not a problem, I had a good amount of use out of it, has served me well, helping to manage anxiety at doctor appointments, blood tests etc. I did not get a Sony Walkman this time but those things last a good long time, I recommend them for people who want a portable music player on the cheap but is almost guaranteed to last past its warranty period.
  20. if songs like Black Eyed Peas Where is the Love could not stop people from supporting perpetual conflict, I doubt shows like My Little Pony Friendship is Magic could either, human nature is simply too flawed. Me and @Night Sky wished we could be reborn in the fictional world of MLP FIM not just because of cute characters, it's because while they're not perfect either, they seem to be more spiritually elevated than people IRL, by this I mean ethics, not religion. People have had ample chances to stop supporting war and division like racism, sexism and transphobia, but they keep doing it. The only thing we can do is limit the influence of the toxicity of others on our lives, we can never truly get rid of it. That's just how it is.
  21. Ponyville probably, depends, I don't know how this would unfold as nobody could ever be in Equestria to find out. Even my MLP FIM fan fiction does not make imaginary things, real. So it's not possible for me to say for sure which province of Equestria I'd settle in if I could be reborn there. It would depend on how you are raised, where you work, friends you make. Work is usually a deciding factor on where you live.

     

     

  22. Gilda is rude and mean, her attitude toward Fluttershy as far as I can tell was uncalled for and selfish. I'm not holding that against Rainbow Dash because she did not tell Gilda to do all this, and I honestly would not see why she would do. But her taste in friends could use a little work. Not only does it reflect poorly on her character to take her problems out on Fluttershy, but Gilda should not have taken whatever problems she may have had with Pinkie Pie out on other Ponies in Ponyville. Gilda is hardly the worst character in the series, but she is not good either, I know, because I have dealt with individuals like her in real life, mean humans who are hyper aggressive and use intimidation tactics to get what they want, just because they believe themselves to be better by their own self sense of privilege. Her first introduction to Fluttershy and this is how she treats her, Fluttershy was minding her own business, not doing any harm. I'm not going to let that one go easily just because Pinkie Pie kept showing up at the wrong place at the wrong time.
  23. Those dreadlocks-like quills Knuckles has rock! I like him, if he had a human form he would definitely be black. Knuckles is one of my favourite characters in Sonic franchise, along with Metal Sonic, Tails, Amy, Rouge, Shadow and Sonic himself. Team Chaotix also get my vote, although they're not really used as much in the series, their private eye detective agency occupation in Sonic Heroes intrigued me, especially with their antics adding comedy to the situation. Vector scolding Charmy for being annoying at Hang Castle was funny IMO.
  24. I like edgy stories sometimes, it just depends on the context or what the plot is about. If it's meant to be whimsical like My Little Pony then that just doesn't fit. Some people get shamed for liking this especially adults. But that is not right, it is cruel and unfair to shame people for liking cute things. MLP FIM is too popular to be considered a minority thing, but even if it was a minority thing I'd still love it. To abandon this to me, would be like abandoning principles of unity and friendship, I'd still care about friends, however abandoning my support for MLP just because of others judgement of me, would be wrong. Showing defiance is what's needed here, even if people consider us weak or immature, or call us losers. It's more brave in my opinion, to like something whimsical even if you know others may judge you for it. Other than MLP, other whimsical stories I like are Legend 1985, Flight of Dragons and Labyrinth. Legend 1985 would be considered a guilty pleasure for me because it wasn't exactly a critically acclaimed film, but it does have a fandom that supports it and praise it for what it set out to do. Tell a tale about two unicorns that have the power to keep the world in balance as long as they live, while a villain in the story, Darkness, wants an eternal night so he can rule forever.
  25. Rainbow Dash in MLP despite her flaws I could imagine a lasting and healthy friendship occurring with her if we were in that fictional world. Even at her worst in episodes I've seen, her crimes amounted to petty theft and property destruction. Now compare that to crimes people often get away with in real life, simply because they are billionaires and know how to cheat the legal system. I'd side with RD by a landslide, there is no comparison here, I'm not saying crimes are cool, however some behaviours are more tolerable than others. She did not reach the point where I would say "That's it, we're done, go away."
