Dear Princess Cadence,
You are a quivering mass of unattended sexual fluids. I've seen ponies do unnatural things with magic - heck, I turned Ponyville into the Green Hill Zone - but messing with ponies and making them fall in love? Does Shining even love you, or did you do to him what Chrysalis did to him much later? If anypony should be sealed in stone for a thousand years, it's you, you over-hyped magical she-pimp.
Yours sincerely, Discord
4309524 Maybe... maybe he was supposed to be a bland character. I was thinking... maybe he's the pony version of Bella from Twilight, dood. A blank slate for us bronies to put ourselves in his hooves so we can date Twilight, just as prepubescent girls can put themselves in Bella's shoes to date Jacob or Edward, dood?
I just gave myself the chills, dood. It wasn't fun at all.
4309550 He's Jar Jar Binks in Pony form.
4309550
..... Huh?
I'm pretty sure he was an attempt to make a 'Prince Charming' character; expensive looking (clearly custom) car, plays guitar (I forget, is he in a band?), and is unrealistically friendly and seemingly flawless. Problem here is he's also devoid of any definable character or likable traits. He's filler. I honestly think they only made him to give Twilight a male squeeze, and had no interest in continuing with the character whatsoever.
4309597 I like that comparison more, dood.

I dunno; even Jar Jar Binks was entertaining, if in a 'that guy you love to hate' kind of way. Flash is just... blank. He's closer to the Children of the Corn in my eyes.
4309605 Probably, but that's the only thing I could think of that's better than him being a another Shining Armor, dood.
4309617
Hm........
.... He's another Justin Bieber?
4309612 ...Yea, Shining Armor is a bit more like Jar Jar.
Flash Sentry is...................
Crabbe.
Noone likes him, but some people make him likable in the fandom.
4309634 Not sure I like that better, dood.
4309639 You're not. You're supposed to like the individual story.
For me, it's like with Blueblood.
In many fanfics, there are moments where i want to made the entirety of Laharl's army whimper in jealousy at how badly i beat him...And there are those where he deserves a hug. A lot of hugs.

I actually like Blueblood. Sure he's a jerk, but he's that guy you love to hate!
Lier. You turned the area pink.
I bet she did use a spell.
I'd watch out with Cadance: she can make him fall in love with, for example, a stone. Oh, wait...
"Magical she-pimp" should be Cadance's new title.
Most of the pony Princesses' abilities are disturbing when deconstructing them, but Cadance's love spell is the one that would be easiest to abuse without thinking about it. Some fans insist her abilities only work on ponies that are already in love with each other, but I don't buy that.
And frankly, even if that WAS the case, there's still no situation in which it's okay to use that spell.
Actually, it might be possible that Cadence did something like that...
