About the key episodes being similar to what happened with Discord, that fits for Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy and Rarity, but doesn't really fit with Pinkie. Her problem with Discord was he made her associate all laughter with being cruel and mocking, when she usually uses her jokes and comedy to cheer others up and to have fun. However, her key episode was more about her need to constantly be in the spotlight and fear of being alone and ignored rather than about laughter specifically. The others do fit, and I would also note that in Rarity's case, I just realized that when Discord hypnotized her, she was hoarding what she thought was a gigantic gem, while in her key episode, she was being very generous in giving other ponies gems for the smallest favors.

@Kix: Nothing new on my end, Kix. (Aside from getting the character sheet basically done with Sereg's campaign.)

Okay, to elaborate on my idea from earlier- it's an AU that I'm currently calling "Photography is Magic." I'll start by replacing Twilight Sparkle with Photo Finish due to their identical cutie marks, but I'm hoping to find ponies with cutie marks similar to those of the rest of the mane six as well. (not exact matches, probably, but gems to replace rarity, a butterfly for fluttershy, one of AJ's relatives to replace her, etc)

Only pony I can think of with a Butterfly cutie mark is G3 Scootaloo.

Most of the BG pony cutie marks are heavily repeated, but I think the mane 6 are all unique. Photo Finish only got Twilight's CM by accident.

There's a petition out there to abolish the TPP deal. If signed, all your content could get policed by your internet provider, and after three strikes, you'll be sentenced. If anyone can find the petition, it would be a great deed for all of us to sign it to prevent our works from getting erased!just bugs me

[down],[down][down],[down][down][down] A BAAAAAAAD DEAL!!!

Some ideas for Mane 6 equivalents, using some toyline-only ponies as suggestions:

  • Rarity: Either Amethyst Star or Lemony Gem, who both have gem-based cutie marks and are both background ponies.
  • Rainbow Dash: Lightning Bolt or Rainbowshine (they're both on the "common background ponies" page of this site)
  • Fluttershy: Unless there is another background pony with a butterfly cutie mark that I'm forgetting, the best match I can think of is Honeybuzz/Bumblesweet from the toyline, who has a bee cutie mark. Not a butterfly, but it's another type of insect.

Unfortunately, I can't think of any others who have balloon cutie marks besides G1 Surprise, but I'll look to see if there are any others with balloons or something else that could symbolize being a party pony.

The TPP in this case refers to a plan by an Australian politician. You remember Sopa and Cispa?

This is like that.

But worse.

My favourite toy pony is still Firecracker Burst. She's a lovable pyromaniac.

How would "ending" an economic agreement lead to internet censorship?

You should have less tumblr in your daily life, Kix, in my opinion.

Yup, all part of A-Chan's plan to take over the internet.

The Obama Administration is currently negotiating, in secret,

Then how do you - what?

I don't think a "secret negotiation" would be made knowlegable by tumblr kids of all people. That's the point of the whole "secret" part.

Fluttershy's key episode is nothing like what happened with Discord. They're practically opposites.
