Every day for a year Starlight Glimmer has visited Cozy Glow in Tartarus in an attempt to get through to her, to try to understand why she did what she did. Every Day Cozy has refused help by telling more lies and fake stories about her past. But Starlight knows from experience that no one is beyond saving, so she decides to put everything on the line to help Cozy Glow, whether the stubborn filly wants it or not!

Yeah, Cozy is a character that I don't think CAN be reformed.

Wait, a kid in Tartarus? What the heck did she do? (I've not seen any of Season 8 except like, one episode, so I'm a little out of the loop)

Agreed, she wanted everything, and I mean everything. She took all of Equestria's magic, it's lifeblood, and reveled in it.

9230849
She tried to take over Equestria by draining all of the magic from the world and then becoming the "empress of friendship"

She's a child. A psychotic one but child none the less. And to paraphrase Star Trek. I don't believe in a no redemption scenario!

Thanks for reading though. Glad this finally got put up! :)

This is happening WAY too fast for my liking, considering Cozy's psychopathic state of mind. I especially think Cozy's hug with Starlight was a bit overdone in the first chapter. But I'll keep on tracking it for now... :twilightsmile:

Love it. Liked and add to my fave.:heart:

Several good episodes in the back half of the season. Like The End in Friendship (Rarity and Rainbow Dash episode) the road to Friendship( Starlight and Trixie) The hearth warming Club. What lies beneath. The friendship university (STARSWIRL APPEARS!) a Rockhoof and a hard place ( THE PILLARS OF EQUESTRIA!)
Sounds of silence( NEW CREATURE REVEALED!
father knows beasts( that’s the correct spelling and it’s an okay spike episode and a really dramatic scene that you have to see)

There are really good ones. I think the writers are trying to get the fans back now so they can put hasbro on the spot because I think they realize that if G4 does get a season 10 it will enter the third place of the longest series by hasbro and it would put the show among the ranks of Transformers and Pound Puppies.

They have to deliver an epic Equestria Girls that has to rival Rainbow Rocks for the Equestria Girls the Other side, and has to top season 4 with season 9 if they can get the ratings back up and bring other reactors back there is a chance that G5 will get postponed for season 10. But the writers can’t do it alone. We have to watch it. Because they will always go for the money first.

Oh damn, ahahah, okay then, fair enough!

Right...
The one episode I saw was the Sound of Silence I think because I was curious about the Kirin I saw while online. I'll have a go but I probably won't be as invested as I used to be.

9231124
Actually, I think MLP FiM already holds the record for most episodes in a TV show based on a Hasbro property, and has held that record since episode 99.

Here's what Nicole Dubuc said on the matter, which I think is a pretty interesting take on the whole thing:

Celestia might get mad, but honestly and don't tell anyone I said this, but buck her! Twilight and Luna are better princesses anyway!" Starlight exclaimed causing Cozy to chuckle.

amen to that!

9231181
And that's fair. You can view the character however you want. But the fact remains she's still just a child and there's a chance she could learn to learn from her mistakes in the future. Remember Discord didn't get redeemed the first time around either. Chrysalis is still a villian. But just because some are slow learners doesn't mean they can't change Cozy and Chrysalis could both see the light someday.

And hey that's part of the reason fanfics exist!

9231021
Don't worry there will be relapses, backs and fourths and the like, and thanks for giving it a chance.

I strongly dislike and disagree with Starlight's punishment.

9231230
And a year of manual labor is only after Twilight talked Celestia down. I tell you that sun horse is harsh!

Don't worry though I'm sure Twilight will make sure she doesn't have to do anything too difficult.:twilightsheepish:

9231223
Chrysalis is more likely though to get a redemption than this miniature bitch. With season 9, as of now, the final G4 season, there's no way to do them both.

And do it right.

9230849
Well she tried to permanently drain all the magic from Equestria for one thing. And that wasn’t even her main goal.

9231285
Hasbro never officially said S9 was the last. Just a popular thing to say because rumors/leaks. Plans can change. And again both Cozy & Chrysalis have equal chance of reforming in S9 if the writers so wish. Just have to wait & see

"No, because I don't believe in a lost cause. I've seen first hoof how helping somepony in pain can help them turn over a new leaf. I don't believe anyone is truly evil, or at the very least I don't believe any creature is just born that way."

That's obvious lie: she doen't harass Tirek or Lightning Dust on a daily basis. Also, last quote mark shouldn't be there.

"I still don't understand....why would you make this for me?" Cozy asked.

"Because you're my friend Cozy." Starlight softly stated with a smile. "And friends give each other gifts."

That asks for "because reforming evil psychopath child is a wonderful way of looking good in the eyes of society and covering up for your major counselling fuck-up". Your Cozy is not nearly cynical enough :rainbowlaugh:
Although, realistically Cozy, of course, wouldn't say something like that, she'd just have manipulated that Starlight into busting her out after one week. (unless Starlight is playing her role in some deeper princesses' plan).

"Hello Cozy" A familiar voice sang and cozy looked up and saw the uniform filly from her therapy group smiling at her.

Unicorn filly? And magic user is a useful asset, even blind and crazy one.

"Hmm, well you could become our loyal man-servent" Cozy innocently sang.

Pony-servant or stallion-servant?

I get the feeling that they’ll be forced to rethink their decision about Starlight.

The Princess has to let Starlight see Cozy or aleast write to her. the Princess's are fucking evil!

"It's Cozy, she's...well she's outside in the playground area between the different sections of the building and she's well I don't know she's just fluttering up there really high, she's just hovering there right in line with the top of the building holding up some kind of....staff!?

Why she hasn't just escaped with that staff?

"Stop that? What are you doing?" Cozy Glow panicked.

Honest promises of feeding them their own eyes work better than "stop that"

Outside of a nightmare scene, No, this is about reforming Cozy. I have no doubt he'll stay connected to her story in the actual show, but I wanted to focus on Cozy in this. Starlight will be back soon and Twilight & Trixie will come in play over time, but no big Tirek role for this fic. Sorry

Yeah taking Starlight away from Cozy was definitely the worst decision Celestia could have made. It’s obvious that Cozy has formed a connection with Starlight and that connection is vital to helping Cozy and preventing her from having any sort of contact with Starlight will just be a setback in reforming her.

DUDE!!!
this is GREAT!
Not only was using STARLIGHT herself to talk to Cozy a great idea, due to her own past, but you made this very sweet and I could see this actually happening in the show

aww, I thought Starlight was gonna be her mentor, but hey still great and it is really good

aww poor cozy...I liked that you used the doll as a plot device

9235100
Down the road perhaps. This is just the first arc. Plan for this to be a fairly long story cause I'm just awful like that. :derpytongue2:

cant wait for more dude
Also, lol, the Spike bit was kinda funny

she was a earth pony

an earth pony

I can talk with Dr. Neuron to get you move back to your own room, but you have to promise to be good Cozy

Well, she asked her to promise, not to actually be good :rainbowlaugh:

Please tell me they had that old mare arrested for child cruelty.

9239305
Oddly enough the orphanage got shut down shortly after Cozy left. The Department of Pony Services received an odd unmarked letter about how it wasn't up to code. I wonder where that came from?

Oh well I hear most of the other foals got adopted and the Matron works as a Janitor at a Hay Burger now. :derpytongue2:

Why is a staff like that even a place with children??

Im glad she got punish for hurting Cozy. Maybe they will find her parents OR she gets adopted... maybe by Starlight? :pinkiehappy:

So you have Cozy as 9 years old in this story.

9240207
That's my headcanon more or less. She was 8 in S8. 9 now, probably do a 10th birthday later on.

Sorry for the lack of updates this week. Things have been kind of hectic. Gonna try to get a few chapters up this week if I can though.

You removed Starlight from the castle and I am not okay with that.

9248223
Good thing this is just a fanfiction then and not the actual show.

9248407
Which is why I will put up with it. But I won’t like it.
