DESCRIPTION!
When death passes, sadness and grief are its aftermath, but confusion?
That’s what Twilight felt with every death of her friends, she gain their conscience? soul, memories, everything! Even their voices echo in her head. Maybe she has gone straight to cuckoo town with the death of her first friend, but their memories are to real to be fake! The stars surrounding her cutie mark glow when one of her friends talk so maybe shes not crazy… yet.
So rethinking what her cutie mark means might be a start to this but 3 is a crowd, how about 6 including Pinkie?

I think you mean Twilight’s butt. When we die we all go to her butt.
“Haha, it looks so funny! Quick, pull its tail! Maybe it wants a party!”
“Who needs plans? You’re awesome! Not as awesome as me, obviously.”
“It’s not how you do it, its whether you do it with grace and style. Actually, it matters more than whether you could actually do it.”
“…I…maybe…eep…”
And then I realize in times like these you should rely on yourself. >:(
I have, as I believe I’ve said everything I could on either subject, thus have nothing more to say about either for the time being
Can we stop arguing? this is just getting silly.

and very much this.
Doesn’t seem like that’s the case.
No, he’s talking about a counterfactual: if I had asked the staff questions about the show, then I would have accepted their answers as canon. Take the (logically equivalent) contrapositive of that statement to get the reality of his stance: if I do not accept the staff’s answers to questions about the show as canon, then I’m not going to ask them such questions.
So, you only except answers to question that only you asked. Fuck everybody and everything else. How wise of you…
Then we might as well take every statement from interviews as canon (a lot of which is from people nearly nobody has heard of and yet, as you say it, they “took time out of their busy lives making hours of free entertainment for us”). Though, I have met some people who use these obscure confirmations/explanations and act like anything else is wrong.
Except, I never asked any of the show’s staff questions like that; and even if I did, I’d accept their answer because, y’know, I asked them a question!
It’s close enough, you’re going, “Oh, you took time out of your busy life of making hours free entertainment for us to answer a simple question that may not get answered in the series, too bad. I don’t except it because it wasn’t in the show.”
On the contrary, actually. I’m not one of those people whom say “I reject your reality and submit my own”, I just prefer to go by what the narrative has provided, and not what others have projected onto it. I don’t believe that the show’s staff are lying to us (though if I catch you implying that they did «ahem McCarthy ahem», it would completely invalidate what you’ve accused me of), thus will believe them when they say “Twilight isn’t immortal”. I want those answers to come from the narrative itself, not Twitter, that’s all
You said it yourself, you’ll ignore what the show makers say, simply because it doesn’t fit your prerogative.
If I may ask: How did you reach that conclusion?
… Seems more like you like bad fanon too much.
As I said: In my opinion, the narrative should be able to support itself without the aid of extra-narrative sources. Honestly, I don’t mind word-of-god for minor background details…but I draw the line at that, and would prefer pertinent narrative facts to be either explained in-universe, or at least strongly hinted at (a la Applejack’s parents in Apple Family Reunion)
It’s not the art that I’m taking exception with, but the mindset behind it.
(Hint: I’m not a big fan of nihilism, and especially not a fan of hobbesian-style nihilism)
But they make the show, this would be the type of thing they would know and have the final say in.
This is supposed to be a comedy piece. Nothing serious. Quit treating this as a serious piece of artwork.
With all due respect, I don’t consider out-of-universe answers (For e.g. what a staff member says on Twitter) for pertinent in-universe questions to be canon. If the narrative hasn’t provided an answer, then the answer is still ambiguous in my opinion (yes, this is just my opinion on storytelling).
