“I am never going to live that down.” -Sunset Shimmer; Rainbow Rocks.SPOILERSI truly admire Sunset for her strength in Rainbow Rocks. It takes quite a lot to withstand almost every single one of your peers holding a grudge against you. In a way, she went for being a bully to being bullied by everyone. How do you reconcile when your past self seems like a stranger? When is ok to stop feeling guilty?
I like that they showed Sunset was finally a true part of the group when she chose to stand up for her friends. In the end, no amount of guilt will redeem you, only new, positive actions will.
- I thought about having Celestia in this stained glass, considering how highly Sunset still regards her, but I felt that featuring Princess Celestia’s face didn’t quite fit. Nor did Principal Celestia’s face. Featuring the Princess would imply a strong connection. But Sunset’s bond with the Princess is completely battered. And Sunset doesn’t seem to have much of a connection with the principal. I featured her cutie mark instead, a distancing symbol rather than a face, to represent some of her regret.
I also thought about featuring Twilight Sparkle, but I thought her crown was enough for the same reasons. It has a dual purpose now; being a symbol of her shame, and a symbol of her friend. bulletyellow:Edit April 2015: OMG I just saw the “My Past is Not Today” video and it just fits so well with this piece I made! I am so happy right now and I feel like validated or something!

Not really emo… She’s trying to be happy throughout the movie, but the plot works against her the whole time.
Anyway… this picture is amazing.
Sunset: “At least I have some! I’ve become a part of their heart, just as they’ve become a part of mine. My friends are my power, and I’m theirs!”
Both are best.
Although I personally hold a slight preference for woobie emo Sunny-sun, because she is adorable.
