    Nah. You're looking at it backwards.

    Rainbow Dash's job handling the weather is directly tied in with her speed. Aside from joining the Wonderbolts, weather control is the ONLY job where she would be free to fly around at top speeds.

    Her cutiemark is still about her love to go fast. The weather job is just the only job available that allows her to DO that. To go fast.

    I guess it is me assuming that he had some sort of friends. Twilight probably knows just as much as he did and had time for friends, so maybe he did as well.

    Is it possible that he was Celestia's apprentice as well and the fact that Twilight ascended, but he did not was Celestia knowing the process this time around?
    I dunno. The fact that he INVENTED a whole library's worth of magic kind of leads me to believe he didn't socialize very much.

    And if the key to that spell was friendship, then there's no way he'd have been able to complete it; being the probable secluded loner that he probably was.

    Probably.

    This was why I was asking a while back for alternative titles for Tia. I had a couple for Luna; Dreamwalker/Dreamstrider, and one other one. The latter was the important one, but unfortunately no one had a good idea for an equivalent and appropriately non-poetic title for Tia. I came upon one later on.

    In my head, each pony has a corresponding star (or in Luna's case, celestial body) to represent their 'soul', so to speak. It wasn't always this way, and once upon on a time there were no stars. (I was also, predictably, overjoyed to learn that the twin stars from AJ's ep were her parents. Canon meets fanon!)

    Celestia was the first to create a star; the Sun. In doing so, she earned her cutie mark, her alicorn status, her immortality, and ultimately she indirectly started the trend of creating a star for each pony, a star that serves as a vessel for that pony's soul when they pass on. But because of her meticulous nature, she chose to pour her efforts into perfecting her star instead of creating more for other ponies.

    That task fell to Luna. Tia coached her younger sister through how to craft stars, and Luna soon found that she was adept at creating lots of imperfect stars, rather than honing a single star to perfection. She, likewise, gained alicorn status, immortality, and also made it her duty to create a star for every pony that was ever born from then on. Eventually she started tying the 'health' of the star, so to speak, with the soul of the pony it was attached to. A pony who is in tune with his or her soul will have a brighter star than one who is not.

    (Celestia has been repressing her soul for millenia because, as ruler of Equestria, she has to set herself aside and do what's best for the country, not for herself. The Sun is, as a result, relatively dim compared to most stars, but she has crafted several mechanisms that will allow it the Sun to persist should she ever fall ill or suffer a fatal injury.)

    Hence, Starweaver Luna, and Progenitor Celestia.

    (Tia's title is pointedly straightforward and nonpoetic in order to contrast with her sister's more poetic, more romantic titles [i.e. Dreamwalker].)

    I don't mind if you use mine, my cousin has his stuff shipped to me since his address doesn't show up for some things.
    Just send me a PM if you want to use it.

    Come on Hasbro, you can turn the entierty of the mane six into stallions for all I care if we can get these!
    We have definitely needed that for some time, especially Luna and Celestia.

    We are both assuming either way, so either one of us could be right, or even wrong. It could be as easy as them not wanting any male character that is good and says more than 10 different words.

    I do think though that Starswirl being so close to it, means his ability for magic almost rivals the elements. He could even have been Celestia's apprentice at some point, but went into his studies too much, possibly Celestia not wanting him to move on or him not wanting to do the friend thing.

    There's magic in those words. You can't just say a bunch of words and invent a spell. Starswirl couldn't finish the spell, or create the counter to it I guess, because he didn't have the necessary knowledge or magic to do so. This implies something possibly even worse, that Twilight is more powerful, or more knowledgeable, than Starswirl.

    Yes, we need some history lessons. Luna and Celestia's past, and some Starswirl info. Add that to my list of things we need to see in season 4.

    It's not about the size, it's about how you wear it.
