Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Twilight's childhood wasn't so lonely after all.

  • Ever since "The Cutie Mark Chronicles" if not before, most people had the impression that Twilight had been a social outcast throughout her childhood and had no real friends prior to the series premier. When she imagines being sent back to kindergarden, she automatically pictures the children laughing at her. It seemed that her childhood was very sad and lonely. In A Canterlot Wedding, we learn that while she may not have had any friends her own age, she did have an older brother and a foalsitter who loved her, cared for her, played with her and brought her countless hours of joy. The scenes of Twilight as a filly with Shining Armor and Cadence really did warm my heart. I'm glad her childhood wasn't as bleak as I had previously assumed.
