Fallout Equestria, chapter 12. Littlepip decides she wants to kill Deadeyes, wants to have Velvet Remedy put on a performance to use as a distraction. Velvet Remedy objects, Littlepip guilt-trips her.
 
Then, while she’s doing the assassination, she finds out that Deadeyes rigged the stage to explode if she tries anything funny. Rather than, say, try to figure out how the explosive works or make an effort to get her friend to safety before she sets off the bomb, she proceeds to just shoot him and then push Velvet off the stage /after/ she does the thing that triggers the bomb. Essentially she wantonly gambled Velvet Remedy’s life, and she survived mostly by dumb luck.
 
So yeah. She guilt-trips her violence-hating friend into helping her murder a dude she doesn’t like, and then demonstrates that she places a higher priority on the death of said dude than the safety of her friend.

@Background Pony: What story were you reading? We’re talking about Fallout: Equestria.
 
@BillyColt: Congratulations, you just made the very same point about Littlepip’s reputation that Littlepip herself keeps making throughout the story. Yay for another brony who thinks like Littlepip.

Honestly, it’s kind of difficult to take the characters seriously when they talk about how horrible the Wasteland is, given that the setting has things like functioning towns and long-distance transport like trains. Not to mention that the main characters have enough weapons to start an armory and rarely ever seem to have issues with food, medicine, or other supplies.
 
I mean, compared to something like, say, The Walking Dead, the merry band of protagonists in FOE has it pretty cushy.
 
And if I’m going to be seeing a character being treated like she’s the messiah, it would kind of help if she acted the part. As it is, she kinda doesn’t.

Well, I’ve seen her gamble her violence-hating friend’s life so she could murder some dude she hated. After guilt-tripping said friend into helping her do it.

Give it time. Give it time. You’ll see. But truth be told, the whole “Lightbringer” thing is a marketing stunt in-universe.

I kinda find the whole “Lightbringer” stuff a bit difficult to swallow. 28 chapters in and she hasn’t really struck me as an inspiring figure. Or a likable one.
