Will Guide 21,365 December 4, 2020 Share December 4, 2020 Yeah she's a mare of the night whose evil laugh can give foals nightmares and desires an Endless Night. It was so obvious to me from the moment her name was mentioned in the book Twilight was reading before the first time the theme song played A Dragon as big as his love for Disney and has his head in the clouds literally and figuratively Ask Will Guide | Signature by Wife of Hawks | WiiGuy2014’s OCs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidnightFire1222 2,220 December 4, 2020 Share December 4, 2020 I noticed it pretty quick. Still funny though. Come and check out my shop! Hope you'll stop on by! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Terrence 2,969 December 4, 2020 Share December 4, 2020 I saw that pun several years before in Castlevania Aria of Sorrow. There's a literal Nightmare in the bestiary. I shit you not. https://castlevania.fandom.com/wiki/Nightmare I was at elementary school back then playing the game on my gba like a madman. Good times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They call me Loyalty 1,951 December 4, 2020 Share December 4, 2020 It was always noticeable. It reminds me when I told a friend who read this trashy manga that alucard was dracula backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacodidra 61,544 December 4, 2020 Share December 4, 2020 I didn't notice it until I saw it spelled "NightMare Moon" somewhere. Maybe because it was at the start of the series and I had no idea how many horse puns they would have. 2 Signature by @Sparklefan1234 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornAgainBrony 2,398 December 4, 2020 Share December 4, 2020 Kind of a happy coincidence. I had always wondered why nightmares were called as such. Turns out "mare" is an old English term for demon. I did get to have a little fun with the pun though in fanfics. I did something with Rise of the Guardians in Equestria, and Pitch Black summoned forth his nightmare horde (which are literally horses of death) and they instead appeared as humans. "Pitch, those aren't Nightmares. Those are Nightpeople." "Umm.... yeeeeah...." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misty Shadow 8,034 December 4, 2020 Share December 4, 2020 They do explicitly call her "the mare in the moon" in the pilot. Everyone loves Misty. For good reason, of course. :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinch 1,121 December 4, 2020 Share December 4, 2020 The first pun? Pretty much immediately. The second pun? That I had to read about. 1 Current project: The Olden World audiobook What's to stop you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganondorf8 11,451 December 4, 2020 Share December 4, 2020 I never knew that it was a pun until you mentioned it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totally Nyx 36,297 December 5, 2020 Share December 5, 2020 I noticed it because of the line "You're the mare in the moon: Nightmare Moon." I'm not sure how long it would've taken me to realize it if they hadn't said it like that, saying mare, moon, and Nightmare Moon so close together. Signature made by @Sparklefan1234 (Thank you!)

Evil Pink One 13,523 December 5, 2020 Share December 5, 2020 I noticed it because they said it differently... They emphasize the mare abit when they say it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Qiviut 22,527 December 5, 2020 Share December 5, 2020 Noticed it quite early on; how Faust spelled her name — "Night Mare Moon" — made it more obvious. "Talent is a pursued interest." — Bob Ross Pro-Brony articles: 1/2/3/4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
