I agree with every single point except for being as 'in-character' as you possibly can. Keeping the feel of the character is definitely correct (for instance, Twilight isn't stupid and Dash isn't an emo), but adhering as strictly as you can to the character displayed in the show is rather limiting.

I find that if you can explain the change, and it offers something to the story, then it's a valid choice to chase. Just like how Dash let's her ego go in some of the romance stories she's in, and Fluttershy can have a complete turn around to a braver character in some other stories. (please God don't ask for titles, it's happened, I know it has...well, I can tell you a story where my Dash point is true)

Anyway. As if my argument wasn't weak enough. Ahh, right, OOCness, it IS valid, so long as it can be explained, and it sticks to a character's 'archetype'.

If you stick to a character's very base personality, then everything else is simply a branch. Twilight's foundation is in being intelligent and a bookworm; this would offer her up to being a tutor in some situations, while others she uses her vast intellect to deduce a situation far more quickly than other characters. Dash finds her foundation in being very loyal to her friends, being capable of flying very quick, and bravery being a token part of her. A brave, loyal, supersonic flyer. Ego, pride, and confidence are born from this, as well as never backing down from a fight.

Fluttershy is emotional, meek, and...well, shy. From this, she doesn't speak up a whole lot, she dreads arguments, and in rare scenarios she can suffer a sudden shift in emotion and completely fly off the handle.

Anyway, yeah, I'm probably one of the rare people who likes a bit of OOCness in their stories. It opens up a character's story, really makes them dynamic, very fluid in how they can react based on how the story has progressed. Sticking to the character from the show is, obviously, a good choice as well, and can help build the canon definition of the character, but it doesn't mean OOCness is outright banned.

If it can be explained, then it can be done. Just has to be explained very well.

You know, when I first read that first chapter I hated this story. Now, I'm awaiting more chapters....
