[up][up]That's why I say they didn't shared the Elements, they used them by both activing them all together.

Pagetopper. All your arguments are invalid. Or not.

I admit your guess is ad good as mine. But I think is more likely that Celestia was laughter.

[up][up]I know how you feel :)

[up][up][up][up] Well there is actually. Nightmare Moon is always laughing and Luna seems a lot more extroverted than Celestia and open to having fun (not that Celestia isn't she's just more distant to her subjects). And we don't know who is better at Magic.

But Celestia said that Discord broke free because the elements switched to Twilight and her friends. If Celestia lost control of the elements after sealing away her sister, then wouldn't he have broken free a long time ago?

@L Mage: Celestia pretty much has to have Loyalty; turning evil and attempting to screw over your own country with eternal night isn't loyal.

[up][up] Did she? If so it took him about a year to do so.

[up] Hence why she'd lose the Element and Celestia could claim it to use against her.

I like to think that Luna DID use the elements when she was banished to the moon

Think about it, the elements seem to work by resonating with a partner of some kind. What if some part of Luna realised that she was evil, and was able to resonate with the elements enough to allow Celestia to use them?

It would also let Celestia know for a FACT that her sister was capable of being redeemed

My memory's a little blank but, there's always been 6 elements right?

Celestia runs a Magic School, so she should be at least good at magic.

[up][up]

Careful ginger it almost sounds like you are aurging that Luna and Nightmare Moon are sepreate beings.

Hey Applelight, congratulations on completing those essays and other assignments man! It's a great feeling when you get something big like that done. Now go take names and kickass on those exams!

[up][up]About the Elements, I think so though.

I think Celestia is:

Magic, Laughter, Loyalty.

Luna is:

Kindness, Generosity, Honesty.

Just my two cents.

[up] Ah thanks friend! waii

I'm to kill these mothers...by which I mean...pass those...exams. tongue

[up][up][up][up][up] The Elements weren't working at full capacity then though were they? The fact that they had to banish Luna rather than purify her could be because only one pony was wielding them.

[up][up][up] I didn't say she wasn't good at magic. But in a non Element assisted fight Luna won. Twice.

[up] 1000 years ago before the Elements came into play and The Mare in the Moon where within seconds of escaping from the moon she's already banished Celestia to the sun.

@Mage I'm not

People are capable of doing things that they know deep down are wrong and should be stopped for. Some serial killers act really conspicuously because they're TRYING to get themselves caught because they want to be stopped

@Bad I always assumed that the princesses just WEREN'T as well attuned to the elements as the Mane cast were. Not because only one pony was wielding them

It's questionable whether or not Celestia fought against Nightmare Moon during the Nightmare Eclipse (when Twilight and her friends were there). She probably submitted quietly and waited for Twilight and the girls to free her.

Or Nightmare Moon got the jump on her and banished her before she could react. NM dosen't strike me as the "fight fair" type.

Celestia: Magic, Loyalty, Kindness

Luna: Laughter, Generosity, Honesty.

@ Ginger: That's plausible. Without knowing more about the Elements it's impossible to say for sure.

@ L Mage: But Celestia knew that Nightmare Moon was returning. There was a prophecy and everything.

It would be hard for Nightmare Moon to surprise Celestia there though, since she was completely expecting it. She probably didn't want to have to fight her sister again and chose to leave it up to Twilight.

#67647 from Aboard The Damocles
Actually, NM strikes me as the type to play VERY fair.

I think she'd RELISH any oppurtunity she could get to try and outdo her sister. In fact, I think she'd get angry if Celestia actually held back during their fight [lol]

@ Drenius

Thanks again. Seriously, over the last week or so I've never felt so much gut churing fear in my life. sad

Thank Christ I've had here...for emotional support. Studying is such solitary suffering.

Well it's a topic that's come up here before, but unfortunately, I can't think of any way to search for the previous discussion.
