I'd argue the first attempt to reach her was the passive "I actually care about you" "[phase of their relationship,":](/images/1857084) before anyone realized she had ulterior motives.


 
But anyway, perhaps the show would've been better off with a bit higher rating to get her across more "properly."


 
As far as the "Season 10" comics go... _*ehhhhhh_* I'm not really a big fan of the worldbuilding they've had thus far, with how Zebras, Kelpies, and Abadas have cutie marks (there's so many races including Saddle Arabians without them), how it "[seems to have forgotten Centaurs (and other beings) can learn magic":](/images/868688) (Tirek's FIENDship issue got a direct reference by Discord in the show) by saying "['unicorns are the only creatures rumored to be able to learn magic,'":](/images/2443744) and I doubt it'll be graceful with that whole [spoiler]||Tree of Harmony[/spoiler]|| thing, aside from characters I find mostly forgettable at best. ~"%[Also Zecora may or may not have used magic here in the show,":](/images/169451) and potions being implied to be something ponies came up with in the comics, no other races having really tried to emulate or innovate on such a thing in the past as far as we know~

(Yes, I know "unreliable narrator" may be a thing, but it's also silly [they'd be playing Ogres & Oubliettes](/images/2443743) [D&D stand-in] in such a _*far off land where ponies are a myth_*, unless you're going with that being an ancient game as well, which I'm not fond of as an explanation)


 
Also comics are loose canon as a whole, on multiple levels, so it'd be really _*easy_* to ignore anything lackluster they do with the three villains, if anything.
