Background Lessons · 3:29pm May 20th, 2013
We all know about the background ponies. All the characters that caught our attention despite doing nothing but being there. We gave them names, we gave them friends, we gave them personality, we gave them family. The bronies have given them virtues they might have not realized as well. Things each of them seem to stand for. Derpy is the Main one most know: just because someone looks weird or different or is even clumsier than others it doesn't make them bad or stupid. It makes them greater because they don't care about those things and try harder.
My favorite character Vinyl Scratch: have confidence in yourself. Be loud and proud.
Lyra: do what you love and never forget what makes you happy.
Octavia : class does not determine your life, the best friends can sometimes share different takes on life and different values.
BonBon: friends are friends no matter how embarrassing they might be.
What are your takes on the background characters? What lessons can you find from them?
