"Make new friends"

Those were the words of advice that Twilight Sparkle tried to use to change Starlight Glimmer. Unfortunately, they did not have the affect she wanted...

A what-if story and my own idea for how Season 5 could have ended.

Chapters (3)
Comments ( 26 )

Interesting idea. I personally loved the finale as well, even though the whole redeemed villain thing is definitely played out at this point. I like where this is going.

I think you should definitely post both 'versions' if that's what they are, of how you see this playing out. That could be so cool.

6729020 Choose your Own Adventure style, or like the Clue movie setup? "That's what could have happened, but this is what really happened!"

Hmm, if I do put both up they'll probably just be individual chapters and I'll let the reader pick which they like most.

Either of you ever read the fic "Memory Pending" on this site? A lot like that story's alternate endings.

How I would imagine this kind of thing going is with him posting both separately. Which it looks like he's gonna do.

Never read that fic, but I'm fairly familiar with the general concept.

Excellent~ can't wait for more!

The name sounds familiar but I'm not sure if I've read it. Well, whether each alt ending is its own fic or just separate chapters here is fine with me.

Interesting choice. I loved the fifth finale, personal favorite of mine. However, I have to say that the villain redemptions really haven't been played out. There really have only been four villain redemptions {that's if you count Luna as possessed or not} The rest were antagonists that weren't truly evil...actually, Starlight would fall into the latter. Something in between, but that's just me rambling. {You should see Fairy Tail then. They do it quite often as well.... It's why it's one of my favorite animes. I"m a firm believer of second chances. :twilightsmile:

Ohohohoho~~ I like this~

*Reads next chapter*

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA...... Oh, I'm sure she got exactly what she wanted Twilight.

Huh.
On one hand, Evil Twilight is a bit of a cliche.

On the other, this is a version of it that we haven't seen.

I was going for less "Evil Twilight" and more "Twilight that bought into Starlight's ideals."

Been thinking of tossing together a reference sheet for what this version of Equestria would be like and posting it. Just for fun, really.

Starlight has miles to go before she sleeps.

Not so much "Evil" as it is "blind zealot"

Ah, then it's perfect :)!

Out into exactly the world she'd wished for.

Irony is such a harsh mistress isn't she? :pinkiecrazy:

So... is Starlight in a bad place now or in a good one? More over... why didn't she just show evil Twi how the staff works? To prove she's the real Starlight?

I mean, a world without cutie marks still doesn't necessarily have to be horrible, it just means it isn't as good as Equestria (for the ponies).

Bad world or good world didn't have a lot of bearing for when I wrote this. I was just curious about exploring a possible ending to Season 5 where Starlight got a bit of karmic punishment for her time-twisting antics. Hence she's in a world where she won (no cutie marks) but she can't enjoy it.

Not that I don't like Glim-glam, I'm just a fan of those "what-if" kind of stories. Hence why I haven't expanded this into a full-blown verse of its own.

TDR

Be careful what you ask for.........

Don't be so shocked Starlight Glimmer, you wanted a "1984" style oppressive regime.

Darkish :) I like.

Summary:

Unfortunately, they did not have the affect she wanted...

- effect

I hope she crashes and burns.

Hates Starlight Glimmer with a deep, deep passion :pinkiecrazy:

I hope she's in her own personal hell. ;)

Rubs hands together in glee Excellent... Excellent!

Do you know how many ponies like you have tried this? Pretended to be Starlight?

She most likely knows enough important secrets to convince Twilight that she is really time-travelling Starlight. Unmarking spell for example.

Here, I can't categorise this, so let there be another bookshelf :twilightsmile:!
