It is taking all of Starlight’s being to say all that… I know it. But I think she realizes being sour isn’t the right approach. She might use this to better herself and then come out a better pony for Spike later. I hope that’s the case.
Lily seemed a bit surprised by her slightly concerned expression and little “hm?” in the final panel. I think Lily realizes something is a bit off too.
Meanwhile Spike and Vinyl just get along swimmingly all the time! They are the true ship!
While everyone is talking about Lily and if she’s better for Spike or not I think about Starlight and how much it takes to confirm that you are not the one how should be in a relationship with the person you love.

@Dirty Bit
Starlight feeling bad about winning? No, not in this comic anyway. The character in any incarnation seems to lack empathy for the most part, but I will give credit to her here, she tries to see it from their PoV. Lily here basically shamed her into not being a bitch anymore. That’s something.
Lily though… her depiction in this comic is basically that of a saint. She would feel badly knowing someone else had been trying hard to be ‘worthy of Spike’ and just utterly failing.

Correct
No, I think Dirty Bit meant Starlight might be trying to make Lily feel bad for winning, as you say in your second paragraph.

Or a horse.
If you’re a horse, it’s just herding.

…Uh oh. Now I feel like that might be Starlight’s game.

Same…Speaking of, it’d be nice to see more of him and Coco.

Polygamy is a sin.
Actually… that’s the problem. Lily’s the type of mare who will feel bad for winning in a love triangle…
Looks like she gave up…I am sad 😔

Honestly, not really. Spike feels conflicted about Starlight too. It’s complicated.
