I personally do NOT think Nyx is a Mary Sue, I just thought this was funny.

Me:(hugs her and tells her everything will be okay.)
I suppose that is true. Though we also must keep in mind the good folks who dislike the story because of the story itself and not its fan that hype it to Hell and back.
It’s a strange fic all round, or the hubbub around it is. I reckon if so many who don’t read that many fics didn’t say it was their favourite, you also wouldn’t have so many frothing-at-the-mouth haters, it would just be swept under a rug and ignored like with Ponyfall or the average ooc ship fic. 90% of other alicorn characters are worse, but it’s harder to notice them since the only one doing any sort of promotion is the original creator and no one else.
On a semi-related note, while I do like Nyx I will admit I feel the headband on her disguise seems a little unnecessary. The vest and the enchanted glasses are to hide Nyx’s wings and eyes respectively which makes sense for obvious reasons, so why the headband? Well I suppose it was because Rarity was acting a bit out of character during that scene, that’s one point, but I want to know the reason behind the author’s idea to include a headband. Does he like headbands, did he think it would add a little more character to Nyx’s appearance or something? I don’t know, just a little nitpick of mine.
Also, why does Twist get hate? What did she do? :\
And yet this is the OC people like to hate on. This is the one some Bronies like to write/draw getting tortured, murdered, or just plain abused. THIS is the one who has rustled the jimmies. Even the worse non-MLP related fanfics don’t create the kind of reaction that Nyx has. And that really confuses me.
Here’s my version of Nyx. She starts out as a leftover of Nightmare Moon found by another pony named Shade (think MLP version of Sheldon Cooper) and he takes it home to study. The Mane Six are asked to watch his house while he’s gone for the day and while there, Twilight stumbles upon the sliver which absorbs a strand of hair from her mane. This creates Nyx. Nyx is adopted by Twilight and she takes her with her back to her tree. After a while, Nyx becomes acquainted with the others. While on a field trip to Canterlot, Nyx is forced into running away by Chrysalis disguised as Twilight and she releases Discord who is more interested in Nyx than the Changeling Queen to awaken his pet Leviathan named Rex. Nyx is attacked by a hydra that wandered into the labyrinth after the Leviathan gets set loose and inadvertently releases it into the labyrinth. Nyx, after being rescued by Twilight, decides to give into her NNM side and goes off to join Celestia, Luna and Chrysalis (who has formed a temporary alliance with the two because even she has standards) and Nyx, even though she fights hard and helps defeat Discord, is gravely injured and reverts back into a foal. She is allowed to stay by Luna and Celestia and becomes Twilight’s permanent daughter.

Problem is, Penstroke went for the ‘Oh look, a cute foal YOU GOTTA LOVE IT CAUSE FOAL AND CUTE’
As if he/she wasn’t able to write a likable character that was the reincarnation of NMM, so simply the base of ‘Oh look, everypony likes foals and will gasp once I start abusing her in the story.’
Also, I still think the idea of a cult wanting to revive NMM is silly.
Why, should anypony at all, want NMM back? Also, if they REALLY wanted her back, they would’ve greeted her as Luna came back from the moon and still was a full blown NMM. If she would’ve had a cult at THAT POINT, I think the entire Nyx thing wouldn’t have had to happen.
The fact, that so many little things could’ve avoided the drama in the story so easily just make me feel as if it was inserted, simply because the story had to continue. Past Sins = Nyxabuse.
