Huh?
Were they.
Extra space.
It seems that rehumanised night ponies will be the subject of some discrimination due to their eyes.
Have a feeling we'll be seeing more of Nocte down the line. Something about her just gives me the creeps. Not sure if she drank the Shimmerist kool-aid, but she definitely chugged down the night pony kool-aid.

I don't know about discrimination. That seemed more a case of jumping to the wrong conclusion, more than anything; a case of misidentification. It's been, what, two to three days since Melissa rehumanised? Hardly enough time for the fact she'd done so to spread amongst the other humans there. There'd probably be a lot of humans who would accept her more if they knew the truth, than if she claimed to be a Partial, regardless of the circumstances.

If the reason some humans are prejudiced against "Partials" is that they are only partially human, because they have a combination of human and pony traits, then wouldn't the same humans be likely to also notice that incompletely rehumanized persons like Melissa also have a combination of human and pony traits?
Granted, Rehumanized like Melissa who clearly still have pony traits can at least claim they made an effort to be more human, but I'm not sure that will be a major factor to those persons who are inclined to be prejudiced against partials in the first place. One could argue, after all, that Melissa and those like her failed to regain full humanity when they tried to rehumanize, placing them in a category like the partials, who failed to become full ponies.
I'm going
Interesting how she said stupid human. Dan sees her as different than other humans. Maybe she also does still to an extent. Or maybe her relationship with Dan is causing her to subconsciously reevaluate her position with regards to non rehumanized humans. Or maybe the rehumanized have ongoing difficulties seeing themselves back into normal human cultures. Or perhaps typical insults will increasingly be separated by species description with interspecial cultures. It's interesting. Such a type of thinking was nonexistent before ets
The re humanized ponies and Partials as someone whom had made the decision to become human again they would very likely take offence at being mistaken for a Partial. I"M NOT A PONY! I"M A HUMAN BEING !!
Also the partials are in the worst postion as they are only currently allowed to turn back into a human even if they would have a better quality of life as a full pony.

Melissa is a unique case. She had good reason to want to rehumanize but she never really objected to her pony nature. She actually seems to want to be accepted by ponies more than humans. Just like we saw some transformed where the pony mindset never completely set maybe her human mindset is only partially set.

She considers herself human at this point when talking to Dan. Or at least says it that way to try to better his opinion of them. She also says she is one of them to him. So at least part of her doesn't want to be seen as other than human to say such things. So its hard to see exactly how much she reckons herself as human or pony. She seems still pretty tied between wanting to be acknowledged as human but also detesting some human behavior from a position of not feeling entirely human herself. I'm guessing this will be a major ongoing conflict with this character.
