Star Swirl the Bearded and Clover the Clever musings · 2:11am Oct 19th, 2017
Seems like a lot of people (myself included) think Star Swirl taught Clover. But an idea hit me the other day. What if it was Clover that taught Star Swirl? It is beginning looking like she (do we know the gender? Clover could be a male name, too) predates him. Just a thought.
Clover totally came 1st.
Clover happened before Luna and Celestia, who were taught by Starswirl when they were young, but Starswirl is still a regular unicorn who should've had a normal lifespan.

Going by the comics? Oh yeah. I'm not sure if they count towards the show. I'm flexible and don't really care that much on what might be counted as canon or not. lol!
