What Funny Background Event (s) has Lyra been in, anyway? Any examples?

She was seen sitting upright human style at one point.

Well, when the mayor finishes her motivational speech in Winter Wrap Up, you can see her jumping up and down excitedly in the background with this big goofy grin. Near the start of Dragonshy (after the titles), you see her on a park bench sitting like a human.

Wow, I actually never noticed much of a difference Luna's new mane makes to her overall look until I saw this comparison

Episodes 1 and 12 each have a crowd shot where Lyra can be seen jumping up and down looking at the camera with a manic grin.

She is defined by them. see her spot on the character page

, it mentions most of them. Jumping up and down in Cloudsdale, sitting like a human, waving hi to Twilight... she has a lot of personality for a background pony.

I was rewatching "Lesson Zero" and noticed one of the balls of violence that moved across the screen while Rarity & Fluttershy were talking was Lyra & Bon Bon. What will the duo do next?

"Dragonshy", when Pinkie is pointing out ponies.

Did you think all the "Lyra sits like a human" fanart was just some weird baseless meme? :P

#30409 Ghilz Fri, 21st Oct '11 7:49:08 AM from The Moon. Or Canada. from The Moon. Or Canada.

Do you think Luna and Celestia ever talk about the Nightmare Moon incident? Or do you think it's one of those "Let us never speak of it again" type deals?

To quote SF Debris, talking for Celestia "Let us put that "thousand years locked in moon" behind us."

For the record, here's Lyra being all human-like

I don't particularly care about Lyra or Bon Bon. So I never really saw that meme

That would actually make me feel guilty if I were in Luna's place. If I were truly repentant for all the harm I'd caused people, I wouldn't want those same people to just DENY that I did anything in the first place. I'd want them to come to terms with my mistakes and (hopefully) move past them

Thing is, Word of Faust is that there was a magical component to her turning evil in the first place, and it wasn't entirely her fault or even choice.

And I think both of the sisters know that.

Of course, "not entirely" tells us that it was, at least partially, caused by Luna's own feelings of jealousy, which is why she's repentant in the first place for what happened.

I have a message from another time...

I thought Faust was ONLY talking about NM's appearance when she made that "Evil Magic" remark (which could easily mean that Luna used evil magic to artificially make herself look older). She never said that anything affected her personality

No, it was heavily implied (if not outright stated), that Luna was under somthing's influence. I don't think it totally absolves Luna of what happened, but it wasn't entirely her fault. And I'm going to leave it at that because we always end up arguing about this.

Watch them explain everything in an epic flashback tomorrow, jossing every fan theory about Nightmare Moon.

You're right, we don't have very long to wait now

...

Though personalliy I'm gonna be pissed if it was a split personality (though that's just me)

Nope you are not alone . I see Luna as responsible for what she did. But canon is law!

But Word Of God allready explained what was deal with Luna/Nightmare Moon.

They are like the others. Strange, hideous, resisting, fighting. Only these were not like the others. They did not die.

Doesn't stop it from pissing me off though

especially since I don't think it'll to amount to anything. They just tacked that on to affirm that, no, Luna was never ACTUALLY evil

Ah well, to each's own, right?

Let me guess, just misguided?

Mind control is just such a cheap, lazy method of turning someone evil.

Especially galling since Luna already had a decent motivation for turning bad.
