What about the Tramp Stamp Chronicles made you tear up? Do you think they’ll stay blank flanks into season 2? ---

> [@Freudian\_Slit](#): > > Yeah, between Celestia inviting the gals to the Gala because she knew it would suck and wanted to see what would happen and the phoenix incident…I think Celestia might be the evil one in the family, not Luna. Heh. I actually really like that Celestia’s got a mischievous streak. It’s what separates her from the run-of-the-mill Disney superprincess godling. Also, to be fair, the phoenix incident was mostly Fawkes’s, I mean, Philomena’s doing. > [@](#): > > Speaking of, I’m really curious about why we never see Luna. Is she locked in a bedroom Misery style while Celestia gets her revenge? I have seen fan art explaining where she is, but I want the real deal. I love Luna. Apparently she’ll be making her return in Season 2. ---

Oh, I like her, too, but it is disconcerting at times! Yay for more Luna! Luna’s one fantastic bitch. I bet if she kicks you in the face, it’s awesome. ---

> [@MichaelEmouse](#): > > What about the Tramp Stamp Chronicles made you tear up? > > Do you think they’ll stay blank flanks into season 2? The line about “If you’re still searching for your true friends, just look up in the sky. Maybe you and your future best friends are all looking at the same rainbow” struck a nerve despite it’s cheesiness. I think they will get their cutie marks at some point in season 2, probably all at the same time. ---

Good news, everyone! Looks like Season 2 will premiere a month earlier than expected, with a two-parter focused around the Elements of Harmony. Tentative airdate is September 17. [Link.](http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/08/season-2-episode-1-return-of-harmony.html) (Note: Minor spoilers. Let’s keep Season 2 spoilers boxed for the time being.) ---

Also, where on that site can you go to find stuff about other episodes from season 2, or to find season 2 episodes? ---

> [@Freudian\_Slit](#): > > Who is Discord? Unclear right now. My guess is that it’s an entity that influenced Luna into turning all “THE MARE IN THE MOON NIGHTMARE MOON.” But I’m personally trying to avoid spoilers as much as possible, so I haven’t done any further research. For similar reasons, I don’t really know where to go for info about other Season 2 episodes (although I don’t think there have been any announcements or leaks, anyway). 🙂 ---

Oh, cool. Thanks. Can’t wait to see what happens next! ETA: I should avoid spoilers, too, but I have a feeling I’ll have a hard time exercising that kind of will power… ---

I can’t say I expected this thread to get to 250 posts. In your experience, are most bronies men or women? In any case, keep this thread in mind to talk about the new episodes from September 17th onward. ---

You certainly responded quickly. Is there a mechanism that alerts you when a thread is updated? You might be even more into ponies than I. Does anypony know of MLP videos they’d like to share? Here’s one I liked: [Hotcha Poniday For Strings - YouTube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGaIQ1QIBA0&feature=fvwrel) (NSFW)\* \*Because if your coworkers see you watching this, they’ll think you’re a weirdo. ---

Check out this song : [Something Broke: The Continuing Tale Of Pinkie Pie and Ponycide](http://soundcloud.com/mistarleadguitar/something-broke). It’s like _Cupcakes_ meets _Sweeney Todd_. Hmm, Pinkie Todd, The Demon Baker Of Sugarcube Corner. I like the sound of that.
