Nepotism Adventure Series, Part 2: The Mayor

Keep us going on Patreon:
/ dawnsomewhere
In spite of having a princess and a giant crystal castle that overshadows the town, lowering property values and making it harder to grow things, Ponyville still enjoys the perks of a democratically elected mayor! She does a lot of important things, such as delegating her responsibilities to Twilight Sparkle, because Twilight is able to make lists and spreadsheets.

[@billlupin8345]

Starlight's now friends with the elements of harmony, all of the rulers of equestria, she staged a coup to place one of her friends at the head of one foreign nation, she's friends with the vizier of yet another foreign nation, she's friends with the local god of chaos, and we still think she has no ambitions of world conquest? Because she stalked Twilight for months, enacted a plan that allegedly used magic beyond the skill of any pony ever (which hasn't been used since,) a plan which could not possibly succeed as it gave Twilight infinite retries to stop it. All of these plans done by an expert in mind control magic, who could simply _cast a spell to make Twilight and Spike hallucinate the whole thing, and come out of it not only believing her reformed, but thinking they'd forgiven her._ And we don't think she has plans of world conquest. Starlight, you snarky, clever, manipulative horse.

[@Melody-dh7rv]

Bill lupin That’s actually a theory I have and hope for that Starlight never was really reformed that it was all a trick,and if not that then she ends up betraying Twilight in the long run.....these thoughts only show her redemption wasn’t believable to me

[@sarafontanini7051]

actually the only tiem she used mind control magic was by complete accident and after she reformed. she ruled the town by genuinely, somwhat realistically brainwashing the townsponies into agreeing with her through mundane means.

[@BNuts]

Considering Starlight has the explicit trust of _all_ the princesses, and can manipulate their cutie marks at will, I fear for the entire world, for soon it shall feel the wrath of Glimglam, yes. Or is that actually Glimglam at all? We don't even know whether it's the same pony who came out of the cave system. If it was somepony else, that could explain why her magical prowess is so much higher than before, and why most of her spells also seem different from before. I'm pretty sure Starlight zapped at least Double Diamond with a mental whammy. Look at how he reacts when he finds his skis, as well as how his attitude changes almost immediately. And then we have that moment in 'All The Things She Does' where Starlight calls a mind control spell 'safe,' like she has lots of experience using it. As in, on the ponies of Ourtown. Insidious is Starlight Glimmer, yes! She must be stopped, before the endtimes!

[@billlupin8345]

To be fair, when it comes to talking to people, Starlight IS smarter than Twilight. By a lot. Sunset Shimmer too, for that matter. Watch the EQG ep where they meet. It's priceless, Starlight plays her like a fiddle. I like that they made Starlight a regular character, it shows that friendships even bring benefits to those with... psychopathic tendencies.

[@rizdubpony1235]

Calling it now, marbles are the main villain. Also I kinda agree with you about Starlight. I'm trying to let her grow on me, but a part of me still thinks her redemption was rushed and that the writers are trying to force her into the show.

[@billlupin8345]

I like to think that she hasn't reformed, and the whole time travel thing was Starlight using mind control to get Twilight and Spike to let her into their social circle. Such clever manipulation!

[@TheArcSet]

I like the role she has, because there's no-longer anyone else but Spike to really fill it, but she was very rushed and requires quite the suspension of disbelief. In all honesty, it was probably safer to bring in a fairly unknown character, rather than trying to force into the role a background pony the fandom already has ideas about.

[@OriasRofocale]

In some ways, she's still very morally off. I mean, it's not like she seems to understand why things are considered good or bad by others, but understands that she is supposed to try and follow their norms. She still wants to solve her problems through evil means like mind control, and the others are just trying to inform her that's a faux pas. She'll take their word for it at the end of an episode, but I think she lacks inside of her whatever would prevent other ponies from considering it.

[@Here_is_Waldo]

The argument could be made Starlight wasn't evil, exactly. She did what she thought was a good thing, taking away everyone's talents and making them the same, so no one was better than anyone else. Kind of like OriasRofocale said, she doesn't seem to understand morality as a normal person would. Though I agree her introduction was rushed, overall I like the character.

[@sarafontanini7051]

basically, Starlight's a sociopath who everyone tries to pretend ISN'T one, including Starlight herself. its just the rushed and VERY sudden, consequence free redemption and her very abrupt characterisation change mixed with just how HARD she's pushed on us as viewers makes it VERY HARD to swallow it. hell, she;s even appearing in equestria girls for some reason. Starlight is undergoing what we in the tropes biz call Character SHilling.

Just Twilight getting yanked from her friends by a giant hand, watching her treehouse get blown u and replaced with a castle, and the same hand throwing Starlight at her. also....Trixie freaking out and flipping over the desk all ninja-like. what the bloody buck? XD

[@billlupin8345]

The series opening makes sense in the context of the show. It basically sums up the first few seasons. The opening for this shows the creator's thoughts on recent seasons, particularly regarding the editorial mandate. We start off with the show, Twilight meets her friends, but then Hasbro comes in from the left, and slaps wings on her. Twilight's house is destroyed so they can put her in the friendship castle ($64.99 at wal mart,) all of her friends have already completed their arcs by now, and because of the popularity of Sunset Shimmer, Hasbro introduces a new toy, Starlight Glimmer (Best horse btw,) and at the end, the factory is churning out pony after pony, each just like the last, a commentary on the new characters- they'll either be someone whose friendship problem got solved, or a villain redeemed.

[@key_bounce]

Ahem. "Please sir, may I have some more?"

[@CountMonsparkle]

You're bringing up a good point, I also dislike how Starlight said she was being "totally evil" before. That's such a black-white thing to say. She wasn't just evil when she had her own cult, no, she was thinking that she was doing the right thing and was trying to help ponies in her own extreme way. Just labelling it all as "evil" is a weird over-simplification that I really don't like.

[@sarafontanini7051]

especially since 1) starligth still wouldn't actually think she was being evil (aside from her insane time travel plan) and 2) there's actually no reason for her to STOP believing in her anti-cutie mark agenda. in fact, its not even ADDRESSED after her 'tragic backstory', the show just kinda ignores it and hopes we forget how she was never actually convinced her agenda was wrong.

[@khfanboy666]

It's kind of adressed when Starlight starts to break down after her backstory is revealed. She starts to groan and get furious that Twilight and her friends are so important to the fate of Equestria itself. She tries to dismiess their connection as a cutie mark bond, but ultimately she blurts out: "How can a group of ponies who are so different be SO IMPORTANT?!" Her belief hinges on the ideal that differences inherently tear friendships apart (Sugar Belle assumed a random disagreement was a sign the cast would soon no longer be friends in Cutie map), but The mane 6 act as a living disproof of her beliefs. Starlight's redemption WAS rushed, but there was still more to it than just "Lol, sad backstory." Twilight was slowly grinding Starlight down. She showed her the consequences of her actions. It all accumulated until Starlight was weak enough to put her faith in Twilight.

[@jiado6893]

+ khfanboy666 Agreed, Starlight's beef is with the concept of Destiny, from the branding of Cutie Marks, to the idea that some people will be famously beloved above all others.

[@billlupin8345]

Allegedly. Tell me, which seems more likely; that Starlight improved on the time travel spell of the greatest mage of Equestrian history, and demonstrated a hitherto unseen prowess of magic capable of matching an Alicorn, and the very best plan she could come up with gave Twilight infinite retries to stop her? Or that Starlight, already established as a master of mind control, and who HAS performed mind control since, cast a spell to make Spike and Twilight hallucinate the whole thing, coming out of it believing that Starlight Glimmer was now on their side? Revenge is a sucker's game. -David Xanatos Starlight has more to gain from becoming Twilight's friend, than stripping her of her destiny. Just saying. That's why her backstory seems lame, that's why her redemption was rushed, because it's just there as a placeholder, to convince Twilight she's been redeemed. It holds up just fine, as long as you don't stop to think about it. No, I'm not saying Starlight is "still evil." She is, and was, something of a psychopath. But now, she's better learning to blend in; the value of doing things the "right way," the benefits of not being "the bad guy." Starlight is an odd case of a psychopath being "redeemed;" she's able to see tangible benefits in being a good pony.

[@tavi9598]

Bill lupin She's not a psychopath. She's a sociopath who suffered a violent psychotic breakdown. An actual psychopath would have been quite happy to see the world destroyed such as it was in the Ashlands timeline. She would have delighted in her ability to ruin everything for everyone.

The best kind of villain is the one who was arguably justified in their actions. A sympathetic villain is a far greater character than a "misunderstood" one. Now that I think about it, we have yet to see a villain that is truly hard to condemn. Every one we've had so far has been rather selfish (except maybe Nighmare Moon and the Pony of Shadows, but even they could be said to have taken it too far).

[@TheArcSet]

I guess that's why fan fiction writer try to project character depth onto the villains who's motives weren't as clear cut in the show, e.g. Chrysalis and Sombra.

[@RandomGuy-ix5ni]

Mnemonic_Horse Sombra is the only character that actually makes me feel sympathetic. His backstory in FIENDship is Magic is just tragic.

[@MnemonicHorse]

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that. He's definitely a very sympathetic villain in that. I guess I just kinda put it off to the side because the comics aren't technically considered canon.

Am I the only one that still thinks it's weird that Twilight never addresses that she and Sunburst probably went to school together? They're both probably the same age so more than likely she had to at least know the name Sunburst even if she know him personally. Then again the continuity on how she went to Celestia's school always confused me. The first 5 seasons made it sound like Twilight was getting personally tutored by Celestia because her magic was powerful enough to increase the size of a newborn dragon enough to break a roof. And in the first episode we see she has her own room at the castle with a library. But when she went back to Canterlot to make amends with her old friends we see them all in the same classroom..??? But then in the Season 7 premiere none of those ponies are in the same classroom with Twilight and she's reading by herself. Why??? god the continuity in this show really pisses me off.

The best reformed "villain" is discord in my opinion. Its more like his nature is chaos and he relishes in it. The fact that it inconvenienced others around him is... bad fate? i guess. It took him a while before he truly was reformed and now it really is just some sort of understanding that he can't just do as he pleases. Truly evil is probably only Tirek and King Sombra, even Chrysalis is bound by her species to seek out and steal love.

[@nameynamd9212]

FinalplayerRyu Discord is more of an anti-hero, neither good nor bad as he could help out the ponies but chooses not to(when the plundervines became a threat, he decides to tell helpful information at the end of the episode and lets the ponies get harmed by them, until one of the Mane 6 comes along)

[@yuukotombo6578]

This is genuinely one of the best things to come out of the pony fandom

[@Psy500]

To be fair, the whole "accidentally steals magic talents" is part of shows contradictory handling of cutie marks. Logically when Starlight stole cutie marks it shouldn't have made everyone be bad at everything since blank flanks still have talents (we even had "Marks and Recreation" state ponies can have talents outside their cutie mark). Starlight's evil cult should have just been stealing cutie marks not talents since the town shouldn't have been functional without people having skill sets, i.e how did they build the town without ponies having basic skills in construction?

[@ObesityStupidity]

She steals it with magic. Why not?

[@Psy500]

Well the town people would be effectively blank flanks when she removes their cutie marks yet blank flanks still have skills. There really isn't a reason for Starlight to strip talents not without also deskilling jobs like Flim and Flams Super Squeezy 2000, as Starlight's town still requires work to get done.

[@TheArcSet]

I think the idea is that the cutie marks were the visible symbol of what was being removed, not that they were the source of the talents. Blank flanks still have their talens, or the potential for them, but they also have their latent cutimarks and the potential to manifest them.

[@TheArcSet]

The reasoning would be that independent of a pony, the talents are visualised as cutimarks, but the ponies lost their marks because their source was removed, not that their talents/magic were lost, because their marks were removed. Makes sense?

[@Psy500]

Yet when cutie marks were switched in Magical Mystery Cure, talent was not switched, all that switched was what they thought their calling was.

Even in defeat He was u willing to bow and reform, unlike so many other "villains" in the show.

I love how Starlight is smiling almost the whole time

[@hatstorm1097]

We all need more of these.

[@topsyturvy6516]

I been waiting forever! Like if you agree Also twilight hair is kinda weird

[@jonathanccast]

Cheesy Ruby But I'll cheerfully wait even longer because this is the best thing since MAS was cancelled!

[@GearWorks]

I also agree that you have been waiting forever.

[@TurbulentEitri]

Cheesy Ruby I can not agree with that statement. How can you be waiting since forever if Greg didn't start it until much later since then?

[@topsyturvy6516]

XenonBrony dont be mad

[@ivygirl9119]

Cheesy Ruby She's goth

[@drake_o_kid9490]

[@random_dragon]

Unfortunately not, yeah Idk why they dropped it, but saw someone say it had something to do with the algorithm change

[@roiking2740]

@@random_dragon fuck youtube

[@artistwithouttalent]

"...Oh my GOD, Starlight, why did you do that?!" "Why did you put a marble in her coffee??" "I thought it was a MINT! WHY DID YOU TWIST HER HEAD OFF!?" I can't - words can't describe - so much laughter

[@roy5149]

Wonder why they stopped doing these, they’re fantastic

[@carastone1897]

5 years later and only now did I learn about why this never got any more episodes. And its all youtube's fault.

[@j-cool-guy-OFFICIAL-CHANNEL]

[@omegalightning5715]

Why, oh why, hasn't there been more of this?

[@charmmydarling5872]

Trixie and Starlight have very manly voices in this series

[@MultiJeje12345]

If you look at 0:07 you can see when the hand takes up twilight applejack is trying to get to twilight to rescue her

[@Lee_Hollows]

I miss these so much

[@mememinimalism]

Does anyone know if we'll get another episode of this? It was really cool

[@666PANDEMONIUM]

A good dose of Trixie! Plus, she actually had common sense on her side this time. Nice.

[@66ponywho99]

I holding hope too for episode 3

[@SnarkyPhilo]

That was hilarious, and I liked the song number distraction, lol.

[@TheBird..]

What happened to this?

[@CherryFlavoredFox0180]

[@harneevkaurdhaliwal1723]

I had a dream that starlight got wings.......... *the FBI wants to know your location*

[@starry.luminescence]

"Your not supposed to murderer pony's"-Trixe What Starlight wanted to say:but that is my favorite hobby:(,Oh well time for dragons.

[@shadowrunner8014]

Rainbow Dash presents = Roman Empire Mentally Advanced Series = Byzantine Empire Nepotism Adventure Series = Holy Roman Empire It was fun while it lasted. Hate to see it gone though.

[@ImperfectXIII]

2:46 Holy shit, I nearly choked! XD

[@Zorro9129]

[@ants7279]

Impus Tredecim on my Giant Cook! There I finished your sentence for you

[@nandayane]

[@ATSucks1]

[@peachypeachworth3974]

I wouldn’t be surprised if Glim Glam actually did something like that

[@zmishiymishi5349]

I love it how Starlight does not see a problem.

[@ants7279]

Zmishi Ymishi hey dude I remember you nice to meet you again baby thanks for the little favor you did for me that ended up being a big one am I right or just your face line

[@magdalenaceroni8545]

Its 3am I just remembered this exist and had to look for it

[@r.downgrade5836]

I think the idea of saying "I used to be a villain." isn't meant to be taken as a statement of low self-esteem, but rather a statement that they are now making from a more healthy perspective that allows them to see that all of the ways they attempted to convince themselves that they were a victim to excuse the vile acts and mentality that they held to were wrong. After all, they aren't finishing the phrase with "- and now I'm a Saint.", in fact, they're buddying up with Princess Twilight to get a deeper understanding of friendship and derive how to be a continuously better person throughout the process, even if they stumble a bit here and there. (And while I give leeway that it may have been made in jest, I would have to correct you in the supposition that Luna got off easy. There is a reason why 'solitary confinement' is a punishment in a place where you have already stashed prisoners. It's worse.)

[@alexandriap.3285]

I'm poor, will someone please fund this? pls I need this to continue existing

[@queenkitten7092]

*why am i getting an invader zim vibe from the theme song?*

[@WTSD850]

in the nepotism adventures maybe you could go into twilight opening a the school, and how the ponies basically overthrew the changeling government and installed their own figurehead in their government

[@TheLordmep]

Still holding out hope for episode 3.

[@yourlocalweirdo3137]

Who else was like,"Oh mi god. Stoplight's on a noose. SomePONY save her," or am I the weird one when I saw that?
