Now see, that’s the kind of thing that really gets me. People automatically assume that a sweet, gentle, caring, motherly sort of figure must have a rampaging beast lurking beneath a fabricated veneer of kindness. It’s not just cliché, it’s a complete misunderstanding of her character.
She clearly has more rage than other ponies
that seems to be the cliche with characters like her
People insinuated she was simply being rude
I am pointing out that in this scene people are trying to latch onto a negative character trait which none of the characters seem to realize exists.
Don’t play coy. It’s weak.Basically, people say PYHD is just sloppy writing but things like this where the writers were clearly aiming for a sense of restored confidence (this scene being after Rarity had moped around) rather than gracelessness are still latched onto by people in this fandom.
Really now, did twilight see it that way?Or is this just people projecting their own disdain onto the situation?
And Fluttershy ooc? As f there is not a part of her character that’s aboutnheing angry and confrontational
Ech, this is something that bothers me because it’s just outright bullocks. If someone says something that is pretty much proved otherwise in the show itself just in attempt to make a swipe at the character, then you’re damned right I’m going to say something. If someone makes a criticism of her character that is actually legitimate, then I don’t really give a fuck and I never have. So many criticisms of her character are contradicted by the show itself, though, so I’ll say something in that scenario and I’ll follow my words right to hell if I have to in that event. Not like most people listen, anyway.
“WELL, IT WAS OUT OF CHARACTER ON PURPOSE” - so? It was still wrong and she should have to own up to her mistakes just as much as any other mane 6 character who makes a mistake.
