The first 'normal' episode of Season 6 and it was good. The tone of it was what I had expected for the first 'normal' episode. No storyline where Equestria is in the possibility to being destroyed. No, it was a Slice of Life episode with Rarity and Pinkie Pie going to Manehatten with Pinkie's sister Maud. This the third straight season that there had been an episode based in the city of Manehatten, along with straight season with an episode that has Maud in a major capacity. Both the city and

Marble and Limestone.

Pinkie and Maud (Minus Diamond Cutter)

Or whatever you have in mind, I'm open to ideas.

Well, folks, we've got less than a month before the final season is upon us. But we're still nowhere close to being done with these blogs, they're going to run on until at least the back half of this month. Maud Pie has earned a place in the fandom alongside such popular original one-off characters like Trixie and Coco Pommel, so popular they had to bring her back. She's had one episode to herself every season since her debut in Season 4, and even had appearances in other episodes and specials.

Yes, I know, slightly misleading but I thought it interesting anyway...

Also known as Rarimaud, I love the dynamic between Rarity and Maud Pie and ship 'em hard. They both see beauty in different ways. And their emotional dynamic is hilarious.

Turns out context can be very important in avoiding embarrassing situations. In other words not animeish.

For example...

Sounds bad right? But I really was in response to this...

Alright, so as most of you probably know, I'm basically going through The Crystalling with a fine-toothed comb for the sake of Sunset Shimmer is MAD about EVERYTHING and even though there has been and will continue to be lots of Sunset picking things apart, I simply must bring something up with the below illustration.

Remember how Statue of Liberty in Manehattan looked back in Cutie Mark Chronicles?

Well, now for some reason it looks like this:

I'm guessing she smiles because she knows what Lyra and Bon Bon did there when Berry Punch took Manehattan two years ago...

Y'know what bugs me most about the season 6 premiere? The fact that it's been eight episodes since the announcement of Cadence's pregnancy (Episode 110 - The One Where Pinkie Knows), and one since Starlight's hasty reformation, and in all that time, Twilight hasn't come up with a friendship report for her. Okay, actually, realizing that Starlight was only just reformed makes it bother me less, but still. You gotta fit at least nine months in that eight-episode gap (Cadence wasn't

Hey everyone!

If you’re reading this, then it means you’re done reading the last chapter of A Solid Foundation. If not, then you should definitely go do that first. Go on. I’ll wait.

I have some thoughts I want to share about writing this story and what comes next but, it all can come after the line break.

Back? 

Cool. 

So! What did you think?

"I would not have you in a rill
Or standing on a basalt sill
Your loving wife I ne'er shall be
Though you annoy me, constantly.
Thought of your touch makes me quite ill,
Give up your suit, Messer Rockhill."

Part of a poem written by Maud Pie to Constant Rockhill.

I'm always hesitant when I hear MLP is going to do a stock plot. This goes all the way back to Ticket Master and how, in hindsight, I can't believe a show that's shown such creativity and effort resorted to one of the most stock and predictable plots ever for their third episode. MLP tends to be hit and miss when they do that. So, hit or miss here? ...Hit. Barely.
