“I know it looks bad darling, but I don’t think you’re a monster. I don’t understand, but monsters don’t worry over their families like you do, they don’t throw themselves into helping others like you do. They don’t laugh like you do, they don’t cry like you do,”

Jesus Christ Celestia!
“I understand why you said the things you said. It does not make them true, but I will not ask for an apology, nor will I offer forgiveness… I have not been the princess you and yours needed, but you stood by me despite that.”

“The seed which would grow into Nightmare Moon was planted by me.”
