“Most stallions are put off when they see my scars.”

Doubtful.

“This minor cosmetic imperfection means you should feel sorry for me.”

Ok.

She doesn’t have a scar on her face… or even anywhere visible, most of the time, even when she’s standing upright in her underwear. People with birthmarks in their cheeks probably have more cause to claim it repels the opposite sex than this. I wouldn’t gripe about it in particular as a stale trope, except it is a transparent insertion into the dialogue to set up contrived Sparity moment - Rarity is a wounded dove, but only in this little way that doesn’t REALLY detract from her beauty, but Spike will have to be the first/only ONE who sees past this (minor cosmetic) imperfection to make her feel better… about something she probably shouldn’t feel so badly about in the first place.

Oh well, Whatever. This is just window dressing for ogling Pia’s Rarity anyway.

Kiss her, Spike. Kiss her right now and show her how beautiful she is

You know, I bet there is some kind of spell to heal scars. Beside that, she could cover them up, or even embrace them with tattoos.

Thought, this is probably beside the point the artist is going to make.
