twilight’s theory was that starlight always caused disaster b/c she was destroying a little friendship, making an imbalance, so going back in time to make friendship…
Though, I do kinda wish the writers didn’t redeem her so quickly. It would have been really interesting to see her as perhaps a roaming parallel protagonist to the Mane 6, someone who was trying to atone for their mistakes while still sometimes falling into the same pitfalls they fell into before, perhaps show her off in a few episodes in some previous established location and have her interact with ponies we’ve seen before, something like that. Then again, I’m not the show’s creators, and I don’t know if my idea would really work in execution.
@RighteousIndignayshun
I’d agree with your statement, but we are getting enough of Starlight already! judging by how the season 6 is going so far, I’d say we are getting all the Starlight character developments soon. She is techincally a main character now so we will eventually get to some backstory stuff like this :P
@RainbowDash69
Sorry for necroposting, but I wonder how much more Starlight would have been if the writers had another episode to work with for the finale. Heck, I have to wonder how much more they can expand if they gave themselves three episodes for some of the bigger premieres or finales.
“Things will get better, Starlight. I know, right now, you’re feeling alone, afraid, but you’ll get through it. Things will get better. I can’t tell you everything, but I can tell you that you’re going to do amazing things. You’ll create a town, you’ll change history. You’ll even get to meet a Princess. It’ll take a while, but things will get better. Trust me…”
TS: What’d you do?
SG: I convinced my younger self to hate Cutie Marks because they are the source of all suffering, chaos and inequality.
TS: YOU WHAT?!
SG: Can’t mess with history, Twilight. Didn’t we pretty much establish that already?
…now this might have been better. Starlight goes back and adopts herself, and since she’s unaffected by the timeline, the new starlight becomes something better as a pony.
Thinking for Abe Simpson say that

Twilight:
“Ok, you got me there…”
Neat.
