I was joking; I wasn't really that mad and just felt like going on a tangent.Starlight was willing to turn a new leaf, but Discord...not so much. Twilight disliked him less than Trixie even before the S4 finale, even after she didn't think he reformed in Keep Calm And Flutter On, even after he decided to become a 3rd wheel and interrupt her and Cadence's get together and lie, even after he betrayed everyone's lives. And then in What About Discord, he's enjoying how much he's pissing her off and doing some of it on purpose, which is weird because you would think that after what she did for him in Twilight's Kingdom, she'd shoot to the top of the list of people he wouldn't fuck with. You say it makes sense for him to do this to her, but then it still doesn't make sense for Twilight to like and want to be friends with him. Normal people would not want to be around someone who sometimes mentally/emotionally torments them just for the fun of it. Don't tell me you would be mostly fine with and put up with it.I just rewatched when they met again, and before Trixie even did anything, Twilight looked and sounded uncomfortable and annoyed with her even being there. And then Trixie says "we've had our differences" slightly coldly. Hardly an offense. And Twilight gave a false smile Trixie saying Twilight gave her a second chance. And then after that, the episode does a joke about her being The Humble And Penitent Trixie and doing an apology tour. That might be a flaw, but that's hardly her being a bad person. That's not too much worse than how Rainbow Dash can be. And the arrogance is not what Twilight has a problem with. The problem is she (for some reason) thinks Trixie is "still" evil. It's not that she was conceited, and then when Twilight saw her again and thought she would be different, but she was conceited again, so Twilight thought "Oh, I guess you haven't changed." There would be a surprised and offended reaction because of something Trixie did in the interaction if that were the case. Twilight pulls Starlight aside to tell her that Trixie is the wrong crowd to fall in with. She's acting like the corruption of the amulet was never a factor, and she's putting it all on her. She doesn't just think Trixie was arrogant, but an awful person. It comes off as though anything Trixie actually did in the interaction was incidental, and Twilight would've acted like that anyway just because it's her. Which is wrong because it's out of character because Twilight's not a bitch, and she forgave other villains way more easily who did way worse, and she forgave Trixie at the end of Magic Duel, and Trixie was genuinely sorry.Watch 7:30-9:06:When you said Trixie's arc was a mess, I agree. When Twilight said Trixie wasn't nice, Trixie actually hasn't done all that much not nice stuff. I blame the amulet for her enslaving the town, and the only other thing in that episode that I would hold against her was getting the Amulet in the 1st place with the intention of humiliating Twilight. And I actually don't hold what she did to Twilight's friends in Boast Busters against her. Boast Busters is a weak episode. Everyone took issue with Trixie building herself up so much, but she's a performer. That's what performers do. It would be like if you hated a person who was a wrestler on TV for talking about how badass they are and actually took them seriously and went into the ring to interrupt their show to shit talk them and kick their ass to prove they're not awesome. If they kicked your ass, would you blame the wrestler? No, you wouldn't. But that's what the show did. The crowd and Twilight's friends all started heckling and antagonizing her, and they deserved what came to them. But I can't help but wonder if Twilight's holding that against her too, which is nonsense.And then she got her house destroyed, humiliated, hated by everyone, and forced to work menial jobs. And why did she hate Twilight to get the amulet in the 1st place? Twilight didn't humiliate her. She showed up after Trixie failed, humiliating herself, and solved the problem and didn't even interact with her. Bringing her back as a villain in Magic Duel almost feels like the writers knew she didn't deserve the way she was treated in Boast Busters, so this was their attempt at making her deserve it.Anyway, I also dislike the way Trixie is acting in this scene. Trixie is relishing in making Twilight uncomfortable. She's not acting like this because of a specific thing Twilight did in the interaction because there would be surprise and offense on her part when it happened; she's acting like she dislikes Twilight and was going to act like that anyway because it's Twilight. I don't understand why because she has no right to after what she did in Magic Duel, and Twilight had the strength to forgive her (in that episode, but No Second Prances retconned that into being a lie). Why is she acting like this?I don't get where either of this is coming from. And because both sides are wrong, it creates a story where I can't root for or care about anyone. Yeah, Twilight's being a controlling bitch, but Trixie's conducting herself with the air of a cunt, and Trixie was a jerk, but Twilight always would've hated her and wanted her gone anyway. Both sides would've always acted they way they did because they both apparently had dislike of each other going into it. Now, I'm fine with stories where both sides are wrong, but they still have to be written like intelligent, realistic, 3-dimensional people, and you still have to get where they're coming from, and this show has had episodes like that in the past that I've liked. But this doesn't. This is the equivalent of 2 cats meeting and not liking each other. I'm not saying they'd be best friends, butit would just be awkward silence.
