one thing that i like about starlight’s friendship with ponies is that she just naturally gets what the other is saying, maybe thats why shes the counsellor. her tentatively listening and understanding makes her really comfortable to be around esp for shunned out ponies
fluttershy’s key episode is my favourite, its not about her having to learn to be more nice or dismissing her kindness, its her learning that being too kind is not kind and could hurt others. its an interesting take on how too much kindness could result in unkindness
i adore their sister relationship alot, it started wonky but then turned out to be the sweetest relationships in the whole show. forever filly is one of my comfort mlp episodes
