In b4 Mane Six cutie marks are retconned through time shenanigans.
With the finale of Season Five of My Little Pony -- "Cutie Re-Mark" -- having now aired
A couple things I expect/hope to see:
AU with Starlight Glimmer as the element of magic.
Starlight shipping:
Starlight and Twilight (obvious).
Starlight and Moondancer (both are unicorns who shut down after losing their best friends)
Starlight and Trixie (former villains)
Starlight and Sunburst (for the romantics and the fact they used to be friends)
I hear people everywhere saying that Starlight was willing to go through her revenge even though she knows what'll happen to Equestria. But people seem to keep forgetting that Starlight outright calls what Twilight showed her bullshit (not literally, mind you). Starlight is not convinced at all that her intervention of the timeline actually brings the destruction of Equestria. Whether she doesn't believe Twilight out of spite or because she mistrust Twilight that much is not clear, though.
Accordingly with the premiere being what it was - the finale doesn't have the action awesomeness we're used to. It goes for something deeper. But it may have dug too deep.
Starlight Glimmer returns to seek vengeance on Twilight and her friends and has acquired a spell that could change the past, present, and future of Equestria forever.
Princess Twilight's efforts to stop Starlight from altering the past continue, but she fears that they may be in vain.
Thought I might make early today since it's the finale! Is everybody suitably hyped?
Well that was a hell of a thing.
Since it's the season finale and all, I thought to postpone the usual week post until after the episodes aired. Mixing it up for all of you loyal followers!
So today, for the first time, I give you an episode summary in under a minute. Will I do more? Maybe if the fancy strikes me. This is a fanfiction site.
Obviously, spoilers below the break.
This was originally going to be it's own other fanfic, but I got the feeling someone else is already going to post it tonight or tomorrow, and this is relatively short. Minor spoilers ahead. F.Y.I., Great finale, especially with the alternate timelines.
I was gonna do something like this earlier but I thought it would be better to wait until I had watched the eps a second time, and I’m glad I did! Just a bunch of thoughts in no particular order, some observations, and some fangirling…
The season five finale was great fun! It also had some interesting storytelling techniques we can learn from both in how intriguing they were, as well as some shortcomings it had. Obviously:

But it’s been two weeks since it aired as of writing this so hopefully you’re caught up.
My initial thoughts on the finale episode with special guest The Marefriend, who shares a personal story about how important friendships can be.
Starlight: "Oh, I'm sorry, MLP writers, was that archival freezing beam meant for my backstory? Yeah, no, we're not doing that. Looks like you just tossed out all the plot setup across this season's map episodes! What a shame…"
"This war's not supposed to be happening! ... This timeline must not be allowed to continue."
- Zecora Guinan, to Twilight Captain Picard in an alternate timeline
So, when Twilight, Spike and Starlight go back to Cloudsdale each time, it's as if the previous times they went back never happened. So what if Twilight decided to go back to after the rainboom?
Hi guys,
This afternoon I've sat down and begun working at my first one shot fic. It's a little piece set just after Cutie Re-Mark I came up with when I asked myself the question, how did Starlight Glimmer get the better of Twilight and began exploring the scenario in my mind.
I was hoping to find a proof reader or two, get some feedback before I publish stuff.
If anypony is interested, just reply below or send me a message.
Thanks for reading
I did some soul-searching, and I realize the problem with The Mane Attraction is Coloratura. She's got Princess Cadence Syndrome. Here, let me show you what I mean.
A Canterlot Wedding
Me: "Hey, who's this Princess Cadence supposed to be? Why should I care about her?"
Show: "She's an alicorn princess!"
Me: "Um, excuse you, there are only two alicorn princesses, I do not want another. Also, she's a bitch."
Show: "That's not really her, though!"
Here are some thoughts on the Season Five finale that I wrote while watching, including my immediate reactions as the episode was ongoing and a summary of my reaction to the episode as a whole.
