  1. I had an epiphany yesterday. I think I figured out a big part of why Rainbow Dash is my favorite pony. Sure she's awesome and cool, her musical bits are totally rockin, she's got that "cute without trying to be cute" thing that's extra-cute... Yada yada. <3 The epiphany I had was that she has a life-long dream that she's working hard to accomplish and won't stop at anything to achieve it. She's holding down a job in the meantime, keeping her life nice and smooth, so that she has plenty of time to practice and practice and practice more, so she can join the Wonderbolts. I think the same thing could be said about Rarity, which is possibly part of why she went from my least favorite pony to my second favorite unicorn around mid-season. In a world like ours, where the overwhelming majority of people in the world don't end up in a career they love, or even like a little, that determination and effort is... inspiring? Beautiful? Bittersweet? It's something... And now, off to work.
