What was the problem? There was nothing between them.
>>26880033
>Starlight was literally having PTSD over meeting the source of her angst
>>26880033
As a representation of PTSD, I was pleasantly surprised by how dedicated it was. Definitely the best stand alone little scene from either episode.
In the context of the rest of the story, it's a pretty shit and lazy way to establish that Glimglam was anxious about meeting an old friend.
>>26880168
>shit and lazy
What?
It was surprising subtle by FIM's standards.
Better this than having her stand around sweating and chattering her teeth.
>>26880033
Could have sworn I heard my phone make that noise when it gets an emergency alert during that scene.

Sure it may have been a break from the usual, but that doesn't make it good. There are different ways to show anxiety than just knee-clanking shivers and literal PTSD.

>Ponyville.
>Shit.
>I'm still only in Ponyville.
>Every time I think I'm gonna wake up back in that wasteland.
>When I was back at the village, it was worse.
>I'd wake up and the old memories would still be there.
>I hardly said a word to my friends until I left.
>When I was here I wanted to be anywhere else.
>When I there, all I could think of was getting another lesson.
>I've been here for a week now. Waiting for a new lesson. Getting softer.
>Every minute I stay in this castle I get weaker, and the old thoughts that sit in my head get stronger.
>Each time I look around, the walls move in a little tighter...

>"Well, you see, Starlight, things get a little confusing up in the Empire
>Friendship, new members of the royal family, the crystalling, all of that.
>But up there with those crystal ponies, it must be a temptation to be somepony. 'Cause there's a conflict in every pony's heart. Between shut-in and social.
>And social does not always triumph. Sometimes, that inner neet overcomes what Celestia called our inner harmony.
>Everypony has a breaking point. You and I have one. Your friend Sunburst has reached his. And very obviously he has lost whatever harmony he had when you knew him."
bumping for interest
>>26881164
>"You're coming with us up to the Empire. I want you to find Sunburst. Take Spike, look around for Sunburst, learn whatever you can, and when you find him, I want you to hug him."
"Hug? You want me to hug Sunburst?"
>"He's withdrawn inside himself far beyond any acceptable level for a pony. He makes Moondancer look normal."
>"Hug. With extreme friendliness."

>How many ponies had I hugged in my life?
>There were the ones at the village. I walked right up to them and hugged them in the street.
>But this time, it was an old friend. That wasn't supposed to make a difference to me, but it did.
>There's a difference between hugging a random pony on the street because you want their cutie mark, and hugging an old friend.
>Shit...
>Twilight Sparkle saying a pony's a shut-in neet? Talk about the pot and the kettle.
>I accepted the lesson. What else was I gonna do?
>I met my partner on the train to the Empire.
>He was a tiny dragon that lived with Twilight, and stuck to a big ol' checklist like it was a raft in the ocean.
>The little guy had been up to the Empire some time ago. Apparently, he had a few friends in high places.
>Part of me didn't want to believe that a kid like this was able to do what he claimed, but the other part of me knew that Twilight had assigned him to me for a reason.
>It sure as hell might have been my lesson, but Spike was the one who made sure we followed Sparkle's instructions to the letter.

>The Empire Station was the last two-bit outpost of ponykind as I knew it. Beyond that, there was only Sunburst.
>We met Twilight's brother, Shining Armor. Poor bastard looked like he hadn't slept in years.
>From what I'd heard, he'd been having some troubles with his family. If the castle in the distance was anything to go by, I'd say he was more concerned about whatever it was that causing all the damage to it.
>Twilight and her friends went with him.
>From this point on, I would only have Spike for company.
>Part of me was afraid of what I would find when I found Sunburst. Would he still be the wizard that I knew him as? Or would he be a loss, trapped in dusty old books?
>What I felt the most, however, was a desire to avoid him.
>Spike wouldn't have any of that. No matter what I did to distract him, he always went back to that damn checklist.
>Eventually we found the house.
>I knocked on the door, dreading the moment when he would open it.

>On the train, I thought that the minute I saw him, I'd hug him, but it didn't happen.
>I was free to leave at any time, and yet I stayed.
>For two hours, I sat in that house and talked with him. Two hours.
>If Twilight could see what I saw of him, would she still want me to hug him?
>Probably. She'd want me to hug him more than ever.
>I will never forget the conversation I had with him over tea.
>"Did she tell you why she sent you?"
"She said that...that you'd become a shut-in. A neet. That you didn't have any friends. That you studied day and night."
>"Am I a shut-in, Starlight? Are my methods of studying magic too extreme?"
"I don't see any method, Sunburst."
>"I expected a pony like you. What did you expect? Are you a solicitor?"
"I'm an old friend, don't you rem-."
>"You're neither. You're just a shoulder to cry on, sent by a glorified accountant."

ok m9, good to know
For those that don't get the references, they're using Glim Glam to parody the movie Apocalypse Now. If you haven't seen it put it on your list, it's a damn good movie that'll make you feel more uncomfortable than any other war movie you've probably seen.
The horror
