Love the Fluttershy - else she gonna fuck you up good.

I guess it's a classic freakout response to something that's entirely unexpected. You go your whole life doing well with animals, but suddenly you meet a group of them that respond in a completely unusual way. So your brain hits a STOP 0x0P0N135F4 error, and you go insane.

In that case, I think it would probably more of an Annie Wilkes (Misery) thing. She'd kindly nurse you back to health, then arrange it so that you trip over a footstool and fall onto broken glass that's been coated with mercury. "Oh my goodness, just look at you! It's back to bed for you, mister!" Then as you experience the effects of heavy metal poisoning, you spend your days silently begging for Nightmare Moon to return, and bring eternal night, in the hopes of ending the most endearing suffering you've ever known.

(So the MLP writing staff has done their own take on various old stories and themes...I think they could get one or two good episodes out of the Misery theme. :D)

I dunno. The whole "THE STARE :mad:" thing seems highly unusual as well. At the very least, there's much more to her method than the mere "Violence is mean :("-Fluttershy that everyone assumes she is. Probably like a person molested at a young age who then builds an inner rage and takes it out on even smaller creatures. Of course, Angel seems to have power over her too. Maybe it's a Dean Corll/Elmer Henley type relationship. Fluttershy seduces the animals, and Angel tortures them. She might be all nice and soft on the outside, but I'd trust any of the other ponies over her. Even Trixie. At least I know my place with her.

That would be an awesome concept for an episode, though.

I don't know what that is but i'm guessing it's where losers go to feel less sad.

Suuuure you don't. :whiste:

Damn it, the forums ate my post. It was a gif post too and I have to upload those one at a time, with captcha.

Take two...

I just had an epic Minecraft/S.T.A.L.K.E.R./My Little Pony dream. For brevity, I'll focus on the My Little Pony part, which was comparatively short. As a Stalker I had just defeated some giant albino cockroach things in an ancient sarcophagus under a large Middle Eastern-themed Stalker base, and while I was going to leave to drop off my loot at my Minecraft home, I noticed a stash right outside the base. The marking interestingly said (all quotes paraphrased) "Make sure you get a friend to help you with this one!", and so who else would I add to my party but Twilight Sparkle? Outside it was a gloomy Persian-themed desert wasteland and up against the lone base was a pile of oriental rugs, right where the stash was marked on my PDA. I told Twilight Sparkle to make a distraction, so she dipped her horn in an ink jar and began doing calculus on the walls of the building.

Suddenly, Gandalf walked over and yelled at us for vandalizing such a beautiful and sacred building. Twilight Sparkle said that there was no cause for alarm and that the ink would go away, and she quickly magicked it so. Gandalf said "Ok, I know what you're up to" and we were both like "What ever do you mean?" He angrily shouted "You're here to steal my bullet! I know it!" and then he reached behind the rug and displayed a lone .50 caliber bullet. I was like "What? Just one bullet? That's all?" and we laughed "Fool, this is no ordinary bullet! This is a magical bullet which does 1,000 to 1,000,000 damage, enough to kill any single foe!"

Then I reloaded my last save and tried again. This time Twilight Sparkle used telekinesis to take the bullet from a distance, and Gandalf immediately appeared again threatening to use force if we did not return it. Suddenly Princess Celestia swoops down and says "What is the trouble, my faithful student?" to which Gandalf interjects, "Your "faithful student" has stolen an item of utmost importance to me!" Twilight Sparkle and I insist that it is our magical bullet and that we have no idea what he is talking about. Princess Celestia then calmly states "Well, Twilight Sparkle, from what you have learned about friendship, how do you expect to solve this problem?", and then suddenly a huge dialogue tree appears in my vision. I select "Cast meteorite" at which point Gandalf is stuck with a brilliant bolt of explosive rainbow fury. Gandalf then states "Fine, keep the bullet for now, but do not think there shall not be recourse for your actions later! Good bye!" and teleports away. Then I notice a pop up stating my karma had changed, and that it was now "Very Good", which seemed lower than whatever it was before. Then I woke up.

EDIT: Paragraph'd.

Which young pony of the primary six do you find the cutest? Fluttershy is already cute, but the lankier and clumsier one is so adorable. :wub:

I must be getting old...
I have no idea what's going on with these ponies or why they are funny.
