Thought so. Finally the teachings of Molestia bear fruit.

TBH, that comic would work a lot better if they didn't look so miserable throughout.
Seriously, their faces give off the vibe that they are either forced to say these lines or would rather be anywhere else.

Seriously, their faces give off the vibe that they are either forced to say these lines or would rather be anywhere else. ...really? The entire point of the letter they're dictating is supposed to be them admitting that they treated Twilight differently because of the change for one reason or another, without realizing that she is still the same pony she had always been on the inside, and them being upset about it. Because they're friends.It's kinda like... okay, take King of the Hill. One season, they had Joseph, Dale Gribble's (illegitimate) son come back from camp after having started puberty; he grew almost a foot in height and even had a (very poor) mustache starting to come in. And while he was still the same person on the inside, on the outside he was suddenly a lot more awkward, and everyone started to treat him differently because of it, including Bobby (who was his best friend). It's kind of the same thing here, except instead of puberty... wings.

I didn't say anything against the idea of the comic which I think is very nice and touching. I just think it could have been executed better.
I get it that they are supposed to look apologetic (kinda like Applejack did when apologizing to Twilight in the two Season 2 two-parters), but how the first two panels are done, it somehow gives off more of a vibe that what they will say does not come from the heart.

My best guess, there, was just that they look so sheepish because Twilight is right there, and they're still feeling a bit ashamed... but yeah, it does look a bit bad, doesn't it?

Yeah, perhaps with a bit of set-up before it or having the first two panels focusing on Twilight and Spike and then cutting to the mane cast, the message would be better brought forward.

They just didn't want to lose leverage in their contract re-negotiations, that's all. ;D

Tbh, that comic really should be how the season 4 opener should end.

Yeah, you missed a lot but some of it was worth missing.
Basically a big discussion over the confirmation of the big elephant in the room for a while now.

Ah. Eh, in truth, don't really care that much, so yeah, probably better I missed that.

In other news, I hope Jake and the others will get out of their predicament.

Next year, we have to make the real third member of the spa enter as well (seen her at the beginning)...
I know we have a fourth member (a stallion seen in "Green Isn't Your Color") but we can only count mares, right?

That would be Roxie from Photo Finish's entourage behind the desk, I believe.
We really need some kind of qualifying system for next year, because there are so many damn ponies to go in this thing. ;D

Morning all.
Inspiration, armed with Canon, can be a blessing and a curse...
Get on with it!
but yes, with the confirmation of the finale, a sequel will be in the works.
MD, don't sweat continuity here between this and your story.
