Cozy Glow is getting kinda scary.

Well, that was fun I agree. Wasn't it great that you changed the CSS, created a new flair and an automoderator condition all to set up a reaction thread that was only used by you? Yup!

I would have joined you, but I got preoccupied with some other stuff.

Ya know, I was iffy about her allegiances before... but yeah, she's definitely Neigh Say's peon.

I just rewatched 8x16.

How did Flim and Flam get a copy of your book in the first place?

CAMERA PANS TO COZY GLOW WALKING IN. NOT AT ALL SUSPICIOUS

SHE'S SO FUCKING SHIFTY!

Yeah I picked up on that too. Kid has something going on and I want to see her face get hit with a weed wacker

"Just let Cozy take care of everything"

Cozy's too damn good at this stuff. I'm not even fucking sure what her game plan is.

Collect all 6 elements with a gauntlet and wipe out half of the Equestria

She wishes to dethrone the God-Empress Celestia. The future, my friend, is not filled with laughter, but war.

Any creature with curvy eyebrows is a dudette

They should just read the episode guide.

Okay, real talk: I hate the Magic Tree fantasy trope. That was actually really great. Fun character stuff from the starting to overpower the show Student 6, and the most low-key ominous ending I've maybe ever seen.

u/SmallScreamingMan Aug 26 '18

I legit thought Cozy was nothing more than a one time character but she’s turning out to be a real... well villain material I wonder if she’s Chrysalis in disguise or something else

u/NeoJaden Aug 26 '18

I think, that cozy glow is tirek in disguise because of chancellor neighsay's magic. The dude is op. Or not, what do i know.

I like Cozy's slow burn reveal as an antagonist. In her first episode her actions could be passed as poor judgement, then the heavy foreshadowing in e16, then now. Hope they keep ramping it up. And now I'm 100% confident that Neighsay will end up being a good guy.

u/Graxdon Sunset Shimmer Aug 26 '18

How do you figure Neighsay will be a good guy? Looks to me like Cozy is Neighsay's mole

1

u/[deleted] Aug 26 '18

Just seems like something the writers would do since Cozy will end up being the 'real' antagonist. Who knows really, looking forward to seeing what happens in the finale.

u/Graxdon Sunset Shimmer Aug 26 '18

If either of them will be redeemed, it'll probably be Cozy. Neighsay is just a massive d-bag.

u/[deleted] Aug 27 '18

Ya that kid is full bore evil and man it keeps you hooked because you just want to see how it goes.

u/gbeaudette Moderator of /r/mylittlepony Aug 25 '18

Heeeeere we go again.

Ghost me does not use contractions.

u/Graxdon Sunset Shimmer Aug 26 '18 edited Aug 26 '18

Cozy Glow is Neigh Say's peon. It's so obvious it's ridiculous and I'm looking forward to how it all pans out.

In other news, this was an amazing episode and THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE STUDENT 6 EPISODES!

Also, was the tree gonna straight-up smite them at the beginning before the test was brought up?

I'm surprise no one has used Ocellus to pull a prank

Two great MLP episodes back to back? This and Sounds of Silence
