** Upon learning that something might have happened to Scootaloo, Dimmed Star rushes to her house to find her. Upon searching Scootaloo's room, she's sure to teleport the filly's belongings away so that they won't be destroyed by her Ink's caustic properties.
* When Spike is bullied by Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, Rumble fetches Cheerilee to scold them. He then offers to share his lunch with Spike -- whose lunch Diamond Diara knocked to the ground -- and Dinky.

When [[spoiler:she's about to be killed by Brutus, her refusal to miss seeing her students grow up or let them go astray like Brutus [[HeroicSecondWind gives her enough strength to repel him]]]].

** When Spike and Dimmed Star first meet, he doesn't recognize her as Twilight at first.

* There are a couple of instances at Dimmed Star's trial.
** When Twilight Velvet is all but forced by Hasty Vote to wake up Dimmed Star, briefly seeing Dimmed Star as a filly version of Twilight Sparkle causes her to tearfully embrace her chained and transformed daughter. Waking up to this, Dimmed Star -- who felt her first regrets upon seeing her parents' anguish over what has become of her -- is touched by her mother's love.
** When Dimmed Star is [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone on the verge of a panic attack]] when she learns that she nearly killed her brother, Celestia pulls her into a comforting hug, assuring that it was not her fault. Despite her reservations in regards to Celestia, Dimmed Star accepts her consolations.
