Idk What This Is I Just Wanted To Give Yu Guys Something Rq Before School Consumes Me Againnnn And I

Angy Bat-pony Dusk's Dim had a lot to say to Luna during their first chance to really talk in the dream plane. Years of pent up anger that needed someone to direct it at finally let out.

Are you sure? She seems normal to me

I felt really stupid earlier this semester for dropping out of pre-calc two weeks in, like I was crazy because the "review" section made me doubt that I had ever learned math right in the first place. Found out today from a former classmate that their current class average is "failing", so guess my instincts called it right after all.

Nightmare Star. No not that one.

Despite all the art otherwise here, Azure Star is (at the time of this post) still canonically a Unicorn, albeit one working diligently to change that. The only solid visions of possible futures where she's ever actually seen that she really could become one for certain are actually of timelines where she fails to save Luna and instead takes her place by Nightmare Moon's side upon her return. But that's not the only way for her to do it, right?

Have only written publicly for a year and already am finding all sorts of phenomenons lol

Rebloging this for one person in particular. They know who.

Almost missed today catching up on College work. Have Sky Writer, another classmate and my partner @sol-red-rose's OC for their Birthday

Playing a variant of Azure (known by Luna's nickname for her, Little Star) in a Pathfinder campaign as an awakened animal. So here's her but as a much more normal talking horse.

Adore this take, and strongly agree with it. If Discord had ever actually proven himself capable of half-functioning independently I'd have accepted his "redemption" more but as it went he was always more of a problem than he was worth.

I'm invested now, why don't you like fluttercord?

Okay, here we go then, why don't I like one of the most famous and prolific ships on the fandom?

First of all, there's a major power imbalance at play, you know, chaos god that can reshape mind and reality with a snap of his fingers matched with a regular pegasus girl, and an drastic age difference (which could be discarded cause Fluttershy's an adult, just worth a mention.)

But the primary issue comes from the canon itself, especially with how they came together. Fluttershy was just shafted for her full responsibility to be to make sure Discord gets better; Something that already was a strange choice of Celestia (like girl why are you throwing a random mortal you dont know that well onto a godlike chaos being even you struggled with? It reeks of writers already having come up a solution and not wanting to build a foundation to lead there.) and canon proves again and again that if discord doesnt have fluttershy around, he will make bad choices and hurt people, something that gets proven again and again all the way to gen fucking five. That's textbook codependency and it makes it even more weird by the incredible, terrifying power imbalance. Discord isnt just an alicorn, hes the only one of his kind because of how powerful he is, and his powers are insanely dangerous to have on a relationship with a mortal. Like, you saw how he was when he was jealous of Fluttershy for having a diffrent friend. Can you imagine what he'd do if somebody flirted with her? (even if they weren't dating, if Fluttershy said she got a girlfriend or whatever, Discord would straight up throw rainbow dash on a labyrinth of infinite agony)

I think my primary issues come from the canon because he is always abusing his powers, never using them wisely, and always causing trouble (WHICH WAS THE ORIGINAL POINT OF EVEN BRINGING HIM BACK TOO)-- And the ratio of slaps on the wrist lower dramatically by the end (the final conflict is entirely his fault purely because he thought having a conflict would be cool)-- All of which just makes him untrustworthy to be on a relationship with a mortal hes obssesed with. He'd be like a yandere boyfriend exept a chaos god, which, yikes!

Srsly the fact that cozy glow the toddler gets sent to hell and turned to stone instead of the chaos god that sponsored her is just plain WEIRD. It's a writers problem.

There's a reasons why Alicorns have to ascend, earn their power-- And why they tend to abuse it less. Being born with power just begets a diffrent attitude towards it; Which is smth that the writers do interpret quite well, with how Discord acts. he has no empathy, he doesnt need to care, because reality is his to shape, and then boom, teaching someone to be better just became a lot harder. Good character! Very funny, very well designed and voiced-- But goddamn he's weirdly written as a ""Good"" guy.

Now lets finally turn to the woman in the relationship. because Fluttershy is a normal mortal gal with a normal mortal life with her own needs, which generally shouldn't have to involve her entire life or routine on making sure a godlike manbaby does the right thing with his powers. it doesn't feel like the kind of thing that has any consent to it, after all, discord doesnt need to ask for anything, he can just do. (THANKS FOR THE IDEA CELESTIA) It just reeks of a kind of misoginy-ass writing where the woman has to bend over backwards for the man.

Its like the shy pegasus was just. Set up for LIFE on this strange relationship. Its kind of creepy.

And Fluttershy just deserves better than him in my opinion; And she can do better, too. Also it doesnt help that you know-- 99% other ship with fluttershy dont have any of these issues lmao. Even canon Rainbow Dash would treat her better, so i dont bother with Fluttercord ever!

polyamory would not always fix the love triangle. sometimes it would make it much, much worse. but they should do it anyway
