I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

I thought you guys were responding to the other part of my post, honestly.

Yeah, it makes sense that Rarity just wasn't thinking straight during the making new dresses part. Good point.

@Ike To be fair she DID have somepony steal her designs so it was only fair that she'd act irrational towards her friends.

My Little Princess updated.

And today brings my second favorite Rarisode after Suited for Sucess. Everyone was IC, they actually had an idealistic moral about the city and we got a song.

Hearts can't be made of gold, how's it supposed to beat and pump blood and stuff?

@Kyler (Sighs) I'm describing her as a pony, she doesn't LITERALLY have a heart of gold.

Well, Gold is pretty soft. It could flex without too much difficulty, I'd think.

It is no surprise that Rarity would act hostile toward her friends. Somepony that was a former friend just betrayed her.

What about the other thing though, where she got Coco to do her job and repay the favor SHE owed to someone else?

You mean, land Coco a huge job opportunity, and give her friend a very skilled labourer - Remember, Suri only designed the new dresses in her line, Coco was the one who sewed them, so she's very good, and Rarity only offered to sew the costumes, not design them, so the deal works out pretty well for both Coco and Rarity's friend.

Though there is the question of how Coco will be getting money for the next little while, but really, if Coco does a good job on the costumes, she's basically just had a career handed to her with a glowing recommendation.

Well, Coco will be following Rarity's designs. So won't have to do to much work. BUT she is making the costumes for one of Equestria's biggest and most well known stage shows. Which will end up giving her a major hoof in the door towards getting better known.

It's Win/Win for Coco. Things flop, Rarity takes the blame for 1. it being her desighns, 2. pawning off the task on somepony else. Things go well, Rarity gives Coco a large amount of the credit for being the one to actually do the work, and Coco gets to meet, and get known, by some rather high name ponies n the Bridleway scene. Giving her a nice boost to her own career.

[up]Ninja'd. As to money, well Rarity DID offer to hire her, so odds are Rarity wil be paying Coco while she makes the costumes, all while Coco gets a chance to show what she can and possibly land a better job after this one is over.

Technically she stole (as in made unliscenced use of) the fabric, not the designs.

@Story Still counts considering that she claimed them as her own.

The designs were her own, just not the materials.

Though since she claimed to design the fabric herself too, I guess you're right.

Nah, same here. Though in her case, the writers seemingly did everything they could to make her unlikable and bitchy. Tiara and Spoony are practically moe by comparison.

So, I might just headcanon that Suri is DT or SS's big sister.

@Seraphem: if anyone, it's Diamond Tiara. Suri's an alpha, and all alphas in media need at least one beta to function as a proper bully.

there's almost like a Sith Rule of Two when it comes to these things: one to possess power, and another to crave it. DT was probably Suri's beta, and once Suri moved to Manehattan, she developed the alpha persona and took a beta of her own, SS.

Seraph: I've actually seen some people speculating that Suri is DT's mother, possibly divorced. it's where DT got the bitch from, as Filthy Rich doesn't seem like that bad of a stallion.

and on another note, I can't even begin to guess what the hell is going on in this image.

Well, unlikely for me. Since Suri and Rarity are implies to be about the same age. So her being a sister to one of those two would make sense. Mother, well she COULD be older then Rarity. If she's Rarity's age, then Filthy Rich, was really really Filthy and scored a wife a lot younger then him.
