In the future, Pinkie Pie's son, Li'l Cheese is told of what happened many Hearth's Warming ago during Twilight's first year as ruler.
Moondancer's mother had a very strong and bitter resentment towards Twilight, and even disowned Moondancer too. Twilight attempted to reconcile the two ponies, only for things to take one horrible turn after another!
LESSON: Some people cannot be persuaded to change. They cannot be bought, badgered, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some people just carry the grudge forever.

you know i have never seen a story of redemption done in such a way, also i noticed you referenced quagmires rant against brian in family guy, 👍.
heartbreaking, but understandable. and perhaps the most bitter pill to swallow for anyone.
especially the part where the mother and daughter die together in the blaze. was especially bone-chilling
say, do you think twilight would ever learn the lesson, and do you think luna light would've solved her own grudges naturally had she not been badgered?

There's no Redemption here, and No... Luna would never let go of her grudge. So even if she had lived, she would still cause trouble.

you know, reading the stories I thought of an interesting one for friendship is failure, perhaps a crazed fan of the elements brainwashed several ponies with bad experiences with the elements (suri,lightning dust, film, and flam) forcing them to be good, the mane six appreciate it until they notice they're not acting like themselves and they eventually find out about the brainwashing, teaching the lesson that you can't force people to be friendly.
oh hey, you probably won't be reading this, but in my most recent comedic story, I made an affectionate parody of your authors note (which I think are often the best parts of your stories)

i just realize the quote at the end is an allusion to die hard 2

...It is.
Bruh , to want nothing to do with twilight, luna knows her life pretty well, like she's watching her on tv or something

Well Twilight is VERY well known in Equestria. And people do have EYES... they can see what she does.
seek perfection, in this case friendship and harmony destroys you, like a ton of gunpowder, and now I will say what I think of ponies
twilight: well done book-eater princess, well done
luna: she had thoughts and opinions that were not respected or taken into account, she was the true victim of this story
twilight 2 - moondancer:
the gurls. lemon heart, minuette, twinkleshine: meh...
entertaining story, good drama, missing more perverse and dark things 8.9/10 😎👍

I say it for the level of detail, Luna must be a great gossip
I insist, she watches TV
11428296
And and as you can see... This is #20... I got loads...
I'm sure I can quench your thirst for Drama and Darkness
11428300
Highly unlikely... Seeing as there is not TV in Equestria.
(I get the idea)
11428335
It was a fourth wall joke, the only way to explain how Luna knows Twilight so much, if Pinkie can, anyone can

These are good examples for me, of perversion and darkness, I love when the bad guys get what they want by dominating their target 😎👍
Here's the fundamental difference between Twilight and other characters in Friendship is Failure. Twilight learns from mistakes, accepts responsibility for her bad behavior, and does better. Other characters in Friendship is Failure ignores their mistakes, refuses to take responsibility for their bad behavior, and gets away with their bad behavior.

Doesn't matter if she LEARNS (Which she doesn't) That does not mean she will be forgiven, nor HAS to be. (I won't forgive her.)
Forgiveness is not and never will be an obligation; it's a choice.
Nobody points out that the villains who dominate Equestria are dangerous threats who can kill people very easily. Nobody points out that in the setting of FiM; the Elements of Harmony works because of friendship. Nobody points out that Luna Light's description of Twilight and friends is just a gross oversimplification and how they're more than Luna's description. Nobody points out that Luna Light is a hypocrite. She criticizes Twilight for being a Control Freak while being a Control Freak who disowns Moondancer for disobeying her. Nobody points out how Luna Light doesn't have a point.
And the reason why they don't point out these facts is because they need to fulfill the needs of the plot, which is to be an one-sided Author Tract without any nuance. Luna Light says her "Reason you Suck Speech" to Twilight and friends and people die to make the story more dark and edgy. The story feels like a slog to get through because of the "smarter than the original writers" attitude that extends throughout the entire Friendship is Failure verse.
There's almost no one to root for except for Twilight and friends and the story expects you to root against them.

The story does not expect you to root against them.
the story is made to put Twilight in her place, whether you agree or not.
11626015
The stories put Twilight in her place by doing stuff like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_KrsNKxolo this.
11626083
Hey, I hate her, and I wish to see her get thrashed...
...It's that simple

You deconstruct MLP with the level of quality like smashing a sledgehammer on a clock. That's why I read your stories, to learn what not to do when writing Accusation fics or Hate fics
11626099
You sound like I should care about that...
Nah, friendship is just a reciprocal relationship.
