--> '''[[WordOfGod MagerBlutooth]]''': Unlike characters with magic, rich characters are generally perceived to be boring sticks in the mud by default. So we don't get to see their money used for much other than showing off the fact that they are, in fact, rich. I say we need more Scrooge McDucks from DuckTales, rather than Scrooge McDucks from Mickey's Christmas Carol. Put that money to good use.

Diamond Tiara has a life outside of her interactions with the Cutie Mark Crusaders...but what exactly does she do? [[ABoyAndHisX Have wacky misadventures with her pet cat, Dazzle.]] Rather it's simply [[SliceOfLife their day to day life]] or some wacky misadventure, life is certainly never dull around the Tiara household with these two around.

''Diamond and Dazzle'' is a ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' {{Webcomic}} by [[http://magerblutooth.deviantart.com/ Magerblutooth]] that focuses on the day to day life of Diamond Tiara and her pet cat, Dazzle. Rather than focusing on Diamond Tiara's interactions with the CMC, ''Diamond and Dazzle'' focuses on SliceOfLife and wacky misadventures the duo have and seeks to make Diamond Tiara a more complex and likable character.

The comic can be found [[http://magerblutooth.deviantart.com/gallery/50674993/Diamond-and-Dazzle here]].

----

* ADayInTheLimeLight: The comic focuses on Diamond Tiara and Dazzle, with the CMC never showing up. While the Mane Six and Spike ''do'' make appearances, they're never the main focus. Justified, as part of the point of the story is to give Diamond Tiara some characterization outside of what the show presented.
* [[ABoyAndHisX A Filly and Her Cat]]: Diamond Tiara's relationship with her pet cat Dazzle is what the comic revolves around.
* AllAnimalsAreDogs: Dazzle, while still a cat, acts like a dog at times. Justified, as the OriginsEpisode reveals he was the only cat in a pound full of dogs and picked it up from there.
* AmplifiedAnimalAptitude: Dazzle is about on Angel Bunny's level of intelligence.
* ArbitrarilyLargeBankAccount: The Tiara household has a very large one, which is basically the default explanation for how Diamond Tiara and Dazzle do things like [[http://fav.me/d7orapx this.]]
--> '''[[WordOfGod Magerbluetooth]]''': Unlike characters with magic, rich characters are generally perceived to be boring sticks in the mud by default. So we don't get to see their money used for much other than showing off the fact that they are, in fact, rich. I say we need more Scrooge McDucks from DuckTales, rather than Scrooge McDucks from Mickey's Christmas Carol. Put that money to good use.
* BigBad: The Imps, though they're rather lighthearted as far as MLP villains go.
* CatsAreMean: Subverted with Dazzle, while he can be mischievous and selfish, he's not exactly mean.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: The Imps are blindsided by [[spoiler:[[http://fav.me/d8cysw0 Diamond Tiara choosing Dazzle]] instead of something more selfish when presented with a SadisticChoice.]]
--> '''Imp''': I thought you said she didn't have a heart!
* ItsAllAboutMe: Diamond Tiara and Dazzle BOTH have this at times, but they're ultimately good friends with one another and ''can'' be selfless for each other.
* MoralityPet: Diamond is still quite self centered and a bit of a jerk, but she genuinely loves Dazzle and their interactions humanize her. [[spoiler:So much so she chooses to save him instead of getting back her voice, her Cutie Mark, or her Tiara.]]
* OriginsEpisode: The 'Glimpse' StoryArc presents how Diamond Tiara got Dazzle.
* SadisticChoice: The Imps [[spoiler:[[http://fav.me/d8cysw0 force Diamond to choose]] between her voice, her Cutie Mark, her Tiara, or Dazzle.]] Her choice? [[spoiler:Dazzle. Thankfully, Dazzle proceeds to kick the Imp's tail and take the other things back for her.]]
* SliceOfLife: The primary focus of the comic is simply Diamond and Dazzle's interactions.
