A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

So if it's broken, their magic just becomes an unfocused blast that does god knows what.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectSomeone licked their hoof and put out a unicorn's magic, I think.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectMan, a unicorn probably couldn't kiss another pony without worrying you'll stab them in the head.
And the alicorns have it worse probably.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectSweetie Belle hit Rarity's horn in Sisterhooves Social. It may have happened again elsewhere but that's the most prominent.
I don't know about the other thing.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectPretty sure it was in Ponyville Confidential, not Sisterhooves Social.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayThere's also the time when Sombra shut down SA's horn, but it's not clear if that was a physical or magical effect.

Pinkie implied in Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3 that Twilight's light from her horn is visible, so if the glow is just their levitation aura being focused, I think other unicorns at least can see it. Though hearing iis a different story.
It would be funny if Twilight needed to stay quiet at night in Ponyville and trips so uses telleportation. The flash and noise set off alarms that wake the whole neighborhood.

Then again, if they were visible, you'd assume that in "A Canterlot Wedding", somebody would've noticed that Cadance's aura was inexplicably green. Maybe it's only visible for certain spells.

I figured unicorn magic involves them shaping the energy around their horn to work it into the form needed to cast spells.
