It’s been a while since I’ve drawn a pony

Cozy Glow as a character frustrates me. Moreover, how we never even sniffed in the direction of a redemption arc for her. (Outside of the shared one with Tirek and Chrysalis in S9 that lasted a whole entire 3 minutes). We never get to see her backstory, learn about her family, and we don’t see any motivation for her actions other than simply wanting more power. We see some other villains who do the same throughout the series, but as far as we aware, cozy glow is just a little girl. Literally just a filly. And she never gets a redemption, or help, or learns a valuable lesson.
She is a kid that hates for the sake of hating until eventually she is turned to stone. I can see from one perspective that this was intentional: having a character that is just bad to be bad can be a refreshing break in the well-built stereotype throughout this show that everyone and anyone can be redeemed. But also. She’s a kid. I don’t like it. I would even argue that that throwing a 10 year old into a horrible, vile, dungeon meant for the most vile criminals and beasts, and then turning her to stone, is inherently immoral. But that’s just me.
I’ve read around about theories that Cozy Glow isn’t actually a filly, and is instead some bigger more-ancient evil being trapped in a filly’s body, or just looking like one. When we first met her character, this is also what I thought. All things considered, she totally could be! In which case, I would probably like the way her story ended a lot more. But in canon, we don’t really get anything that hints this is true. She is a cunning and manipulative foal, and her cutie mark is a chess piece. It tracks. She is kind of just evil because she wants to be, and this little kid gets sent to a horrible prison, and then turned to stone
I did a little MLP gen art style practice and decided to display them all together. The ponies from top to bottom are Galaxy, Ivy, Razzaroo, Rainbow Dash, and Sunny Starscout. The backgrounds were stripped from official art I found on google.
What's your favorite gen?
I have finished Friendship is Magic. I don’t think I will ever be the same. Horses bro.

Chrysalis I love U (the way she’s written is so fun. A pretty epic villain tbh)
Happy Hearts and Hooves Day Everypony! 🧁💗
Flabbergasted beyond their years
I just saw a head canon of polyamorous Cadence (y’know… cause she’s the princess of love). I don’t know why this never occurred to me but it’s genius??? Poly Cadence for the win>>
This art is absolutely stunning 🥹🥹 I love how you imagined her as a fully grown alicorn. She’s beautiful!!

On a different note, I have so many ideas and screenshots and brainrot headcanons to share with y’all, it’s not even funny 😵💫
Why did they make King Sombra such a beautiful twink?
Angry siblings <3
This show writes sibling dynamics so well, and in a healthy way for children to understand and learn how to handle inevitable conflict. I think it’s fantastic.
Zephyr Breeze I love you dearly
Look at this man he’s beautiful

Why do cartoon horses make me so happy. I love them. Look at them go.

I didn’t mean to start a debate, but since we’re at it . . . .
Starlight was a broken and lonely pony. She didn’t want to be alone, and she hurt people in an obscene way to achieve that. Obviously, the things that she did was terrifying and I also think her redemption was rushed (discords redemption arc is the only one I truly adore in FiM) but after her initial redemption she struggles to fit in and cope with how terrible she was to ponies. We see how her horrible actions hurt her later in life as well. Chancellor Neigh Say literally flipped like a switch (I have only finished season 8, so if his redemption is more fleshed out in season 9 I may backtrack this opinion, but don’t give me any spoilers). He went from extremely racist and hell bent on destroying Twilight and everything she has built, and one incident toppled him on his head and turned him into a good guy without any repercussions for the things he did and said and how he treated literal CHILDREN. Do y’all realize that? He chained up innocent CHILDREN. He doesn’t deserve a redemption arc because his only justification for his horrible treatment of non-pony creatures was simply that. Because they were non-ponies.
If a character has such violently hateful opinions of other species and his entire personality was written around him being a pony supremicist, then no, I don’t think he deserves a redemption arc. No one changes that easily, especially on that kind of opinion. If it was taken more slowly and dug a little deeper into his rooted dislike for other creatures, I could give him a chance. But not with the knowledge I currently have of him. But again, I’ve only seen up until season 8, so any actions he may take in season 9 could very well change this opinion.
I just finished season 8 of FiM.
Chancellor Neigh Say shouldn't have been redeemed.

"The way the light shimmers off of everything like it all suddenly woke up the moment you saw it and you realize that maybe the water, the mountains, the forest, and, yes! The rainbows, and the stars in the sky are all looking back at you thinking the same thing. That we are a part of the everything. That maybe there is just one thing, and we are ALL it."
Thank you for explaining my spiritual beliefs My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Shit, maybe this show is where it all started.
