>"Oh Anon, I have grown past you. To think of it, I have grown past everypony.">"The princesses, my so-called friends, my brother, everypony is now beneath me.">Twilight steps down from her throne of black crystals. Banners adorned with her cutie mark are all over the throne room.>"The dumb filly who once thought the world of you is gone.">"Gone are the days I believed true harmony could be accomplished with a kind smile and a plea.">"Gone are the days when friendship could fix everything.">Twilight turns to face a new stained glass mural in Canterlot Castle that depicts the last sacrifice Celestia and Luna gave for the survival of Equestria.>"Those days died long ago when I realized I couldn't save everypony.">"Their deaths once caused me much grief. Their vacant thrones I was forced upon. And yet the threats kept coming. Their sacrifices were for nothing. So now I feel nothing.">Twilight then turns back towards you.>"I had to stop being the mare everypony wanted me to be. I need to be the mare the world needs.">"If that means I have to throw away everything that made me Twilight Sparkle, including my feelings for you, then so be it.">"Look upon your new Empress Anon, Empress Midnight."
Okay I get it, I really shouldn't have ditched you yesterday to bake cookies with Pinkie, that was messed up of me. I'm sorry.
Your new empire?!
"...So you're just stealing Luna's thing?">"Excuse me?""Empress Midnight. That's basically like Nightmare Moon.">"Anon, I am NOT-""Your name is fucking Twilight, shouldn't your villain moniker be...I dunno, Dusk?">"I...No.""No? Why not?">"Because...Because Midnight is more intimidating.""But you're Twilight. You're between both. You helped bring Luna back, acting as a bridge between the sisters, you inherited both their crowns when they died, you should be a combination of them, thematically.">"Anon, being a ruler isn't about 'themes', it's about-""Candyass' biggest responsibility is a giant heart, powered by love. Her nemesis is a shapeshifter that feeds on love.">"...That's...shut up."
I feel like people vastly misunderstand what kind villain King Sombra was supposed to be. Sombra wasn't a cold heartless emotionless dictator. He was so consumed by his greed and the pursuit of power that he was barely noticeable as anything other than feral. He became a force of nature driven purely by emotions.>But Season 9Yeah Season 9 fucked him up too. There's no reason a character like Sombra would kidnap a baby and laugh. His force was encompassing. When he had subjects there was no rhyme or reason. No master plan. He just wanted power and ruled with a shit eating grin and nothing else. All that to say this Empress Midnight character seems like a parody of the mischaracterization they gave him in S9. You're acting more like Tempest Shadow than the dictator you're cosplaying ass. Eat a fucking cookie, Twilight. You're not you when you're hungry.
