"Daring Don't" Thoughts

As much as I'd like to have seen Twilight Sparkle's mother, Twilight Velvet, canonized as the author of the "Daring Do" novels, I'm kind of glad she wasn't. That way lay the danger of Twilight's family becoming a Mary Sue. Think about it:

• Twilight Sparkle, formerly the personal protégée of Princess Celestia and now newly crowned alicorn princess of Equestria.
• Shining Armor, formerly(?) Captain of the Royal Guard, now Prince of the Crystal Empire due to his wedding to…
• …Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, a.k.a. "Cadance," who just so happened (don't get me started) to foalsit a pre-cutie mark Twilight Sparkle.
• Twilight Velvet, bestselling author of the famous "Daring Do" novels.

Who would Twilight Sparkle's father have to be to be seen as an equal to these four, the Prime Minister of Equestria? The inventor of the rubber horseshoe? A billionaire investor in zap apple futures who took up breaking airship endurance records after his retirement? Neigh-bel Prize-winning developer of the Theories of Special and General Thaumaturgy? No, I think it's better that Twilight Velvet wasn't Daring Do's author, or even ghostwriter. Besides—with Daring Do and Ahuizotl (and, by extension, Daring Do's entire rogues' gallery) now known to be "real" and not fictitious, a whole host of new story opportunities opens up for later in season four, any season five (I'm betting on at least a short, 13 episode fifth season to bring the total number of episodes to 104—just over the magic number of 100 desired for syndication), comic books, chapter books, etc. Off the top of my head:

• Has Ahuizotl ever gone up against Celestia, Cadance, or even Luna? He may not be in Sombra's or Queen Chrysalis' class, but unlike them, Ahuizotl is clearly still around to cause mischief.
• Has Daring Do ever worked for Princess Celestia? After all, the clear inspiration for the character, Indiana Jones, was pressed into service on occasion by the U.S. Government (e.g., Raiders of the Lost Ark, the Roswell Incident some years prior to the events in Kingdom of the Crystal Skull).
• Does Daring destroy all the artifacts she finds, as she did with the last ring of Talicon? What became of the Sapphire Stone? Is it sitting in an unassuming box in a warehouse out in the San Palomino Desert, on a Wonderbolt base that officially doesn't exist, surrounded by hundreds of similar boxes? How many books has "A.K. Yearling" written, anyway?
• Ahuizotl again swore to have his revenge upon Daring Do, but finding a rather plain-colored pegasus who doesn't want to be found and wears a disguise is one thing. Finding the lavender alicorn he leapt over during the game of "Keep the Ring Away From Ahuizotl?" There don't seem to be too many of those running around Equestria, and look! The newest Princess is lavender, is about the right size and age, and is often seen in the company of a rainbow-maned, cyan pegasus! Hmmm…
• Come to think of it, the cover of Daring Do and the Ring of Destiny paints a pretty large target on Rainbow Dash for any of Daring Do's enemies to aim at. Said enemies know that the book covers feature accurate pictures of Daring Do herself, so by extension, the picture of the rainbow-maned, cyan pegasus may also be accurate.
