My Little Pony Friendship is Magic

they're not going to leave a pony permanently stoned

 

[Specific Neptune]

Be careful when you use the expression "stoned" Nabber. It has many connotations.

implying I didn't put that double entendre there on purpose

implying I didn't see the joke and took it further

[Nabber]

they're not going to leave a pony permanently stoned

I said pony. Not creature.

Gah, ninja'd.

 

[Toad Eightyfive]

his head is pony :\

The difference is that Discord is purely evil while Trixie is just vain (also this would have to take place at least a year after the events of Boast Busters so why would she still be mad)

This is one thing I agree with you about Shoey. I don't see why all this time Trixie would be after Twilight. Nothing happened in Boast Busters that made her antagonize Twilight. The closest thing was this

Trixie: Huh. You may have vanquished an Ursa Minor, but you will never have the amazing, show-stopping ability of the Great and Powerful Trixie!

That doesn't sound like it means she was vowing revenge. She just made one last boast before heading off.

I wouldn't be surprised if she did hold a grudge against Twilight; some people hold grudges for a really long time. I mean, she was humiliated when she couldn't take care of the Ursa Major (turned out to be the Ursa Minor) and having Twilight end up victorious. Also, even though her last line may have been a "boasting effort", she was probably really angered deep inside.

IDK, this episode can have a lot of potential to be a good one. It just depends how they handle it.

Yeah so realistically the only way this would work was if her visit to ponyville so ruined her reputation that she was unable to find work (which is weird since she does free shows for people) and so she was trying to gain revenge based on that but even that doesn't work since it wasn't the main 6's fault it was snips and snails who brought the damn thing there. Also if she is permanently killed off she either needs to be fully villainous (which doesn't work because she was simply to arrogant) or it will be one of the worst ending ever because it punishes a character for wearing an evil necklace. Also for those of you saying she will be working with the king remember that she has no idea who the king is just like every pony including twilight up until the events of 2 episodes ago so in order for her to be working with the king she would have to be tricked by him although I guess it would work if the the necklace worked like Majora's Mask did and warped the users emotions but I highly doubt that's what will happen

Yeah but it's not Twilight's fault the Ursa Minor was even there in the first place that sort of showed she was all talk. I still think Trixie would be more angry at Snips and Snails then she ever could at Twilight.

If she killed Snips and Snails i would love her

she got unstoned afterwards

they're not going to leave a pony permanently stoned

Thing about the unstoning process is that it was completely by chance. If the CMC didn't cause the chickens to escape and go after them, Fluttershy wouldn't have discovered her. Not to mention, how they HECK would ANYONE know that a cockatrice has the power to turn thinks it "stoned" back to normal? Twilight COULD have been left in stone, for who knows how long!

I assume at some point they would have been like "hey twilight is missing we should look for her" and considering the fact that they weren't that far from Ponyville i assume she would have been found (other wise the other ponies are the worst rescuers ever)

Even THEN, it would have taken some time for them to realize she's missing and search the Everfree Forest for her, and by then, stone Twilight would have been left to the elements... She could have eroded, or had animals and bugs crawl over her leaving their gunk on her... It's a lot creepier and more terrifying the more you look into it.

I think it would take about a day for them to realize shes missing, 5 minutes for them to message to only other place she would be (with Princess C) 4 more minuted for Princess C to use magic to find her (If magic can stop giant bears then Magic can fucking find people) and about 30 seconds to unstone her (USING MAGIC)

 

[Smashgoom202]

You're giant bears argument doesn't really make sense, because Twilight used a number of different spells to deal with the Ursa Minor, and even THEN she researched the Ursa Minor before dealing with it. And Celestia doesn't really have clairvoyance or omnipresence, and doesn't really know where ponies are at any different time. I suppose it's easy to say it wouldn't be hard for her to locate Twilight given how powerful she is, but it hasn't really been shown or mentioned that she could...

Not that I don't think there isn't a spell to unstone somepony, I just think the process of finding her would take a while. Plus what if she was covered in dirt, or plants started to grow on her before they found her, making her harder to find? I'm just saying it doesn't seem to me as easily dismissive as most people are saying.

I think a twilight shaped rock would be pretty easy to find also wasn't she on like a route going somewhere which would make her ever easier to find.

 

[Smashgoom202]

I didn't really see a path... Also, since nopony really goes into the Everfree Forest, where would they even start? There could be a number of ways to reach Zecora's that nopony knows about. Plus how often to ponies outside of Twilight even visit Zecora?

Couldn't tell you (but I estimate it at one million times each second) but considering how easy she was found by the CMB (I think that's who found her) it's safe to assume that she wasn't very far from ponyville when she was turned to stone

 

[SonicMario]

Frankly, I agree with Shoey. I think somepony would of noticed soon enough that Twilight was gone, someone like Spike most likely. Spike would go to all the other ponies asking where she went, they'd get to Fluttershy who was the last one to see Twilight who would remember that she went to Zecora's. So Spike and the others would follow the trail to Zecora's (Maybe Applebloom would assist them) until they found a turned to stoned Twilight. Of course they wouldn't have any idea how to change her back, but I guess then they'd head to Zecora who might know a thing or too. Unless defeating the Cockatrice is the only way to revert those turned to stone.

The answer is magic I mean if magic can find gems, create barricades, control ropes, and create tornadoes then magic should be able to unstone people

For some reason, I feel compelled to post this:

But really, there has to be limitations and certain things to learn when it comes to magic, Twilight brought this up a number of times... Then again, at the same time, she's seen using magic as a deus ex machina even more times. One has to wonder if there's a spell for everything and anything.

I found it interesting that there is a spell that stops evil from entering a city yet there is no spell that gives ponies energy...also it's probably based off of how many spells you can remember and how many books you read

 

[Tyrell Badd]

Considering Twilight used a spell that basically turned a pony into a balloon and made them explode in glittery swirls, I think being able to "unstone" someone is within reason.
