Description
Why do you keep coming back for me?For a pony so close to my heart; what else can I do?
Erk, I did not plan this through at all. I wanted a comic strip without words but couldn't find something that implies "a massive war happened at around panel 7 where Sunset Shimmer steps in and helps fight" but ended up implying that Sunset fought Celestia.

A brony is some loser asshole who watches a show for little girls and then tries to tell the whole fucking world about it. A brony is an intolerant fuck who can't accept other people's opinions; every time someone gives a valid and truthful point about (against) MLP, the guy who gave the valid and truthful point gets bashed by bronies, while no bronies even take a second to think about them.
How do I know this? I've tried, and I've seen other people try to smack sense into a brony. I've never seen it work. All I can do now is troll bronies and laugh at them.

PS. I am neutral
just to be fair for both parties (bronies and you guys) yes i do find it anoying at times especially around 2011, they spammed sites with loads of pony pictures which makes it hard for me to catch on my memes. was there a reason for them to do that? maybe... one of the reasons i think is that they want to spread the fandom or making it expand, like sharing it with the world.
heck i didn't get that at all, even now i'm still confounded on how they do things. but hey it makes them happy and i say let them do what they want (i wont and never will judge them). but there were also euphoric bronies who post way too much pony related post because they dont have anything better to do. now i'm not saying that most of us do this, just a fair few. t'was annoying actually
i hope that you dont get mad when i say this (because you've probably read it hundreds of times) mlp was created by faust who's targeted demographics were everyone. she even stated that she wanted to create a show that the parents will enjoy watching with their kids. as a kid i watched the powerpuff girls and it didnt make me and my mates feel gay or weird or anything.
you also pointed out intolerant bronies. most will surely disagree, but i've met some who just fits the shoe. they shun out peoples opinions when they think different, disagree with you in many ways, or just plainly troll the trollers (news flash people; to win a game against a troll is by not playing at all).
but hey these are normal things that people do when faced with simmilar scenarios
come to think of it, religion and politics are kinda the same way. thats why we had judgmental priests in the old age and corrupted governments. they were all like "you should think like us, or else". my point is that these things don't only apply to bronies. you can find it anywhere and in any fandom (whovians, furries, harrypotter fans, pokefans). heh being critical of the "otherwise"
TL;DR to sum it up; people will always be... well... people... they bitch about, fight for what they believe in, stand by their dreams and they'll listen to no one who says otherwise. it's completely biased to label it on one thing when in truth everyone can be that way. you've pointed out some strong points that some bronies would deny but are true. oh, and also i'm not taking sides. i'm more focused on hearing out both parties and come to a minor understanding, feel free to ask questions or disagree. i'm all ears. sometimes all that a person needs is a good listener

I have finally found one.
After months and months of trolling, you are one that will actually fucking cooperate.

however it was not nice when you came in this territory and fucked with people. if you say that bronies for you are like that, then why did you come here in the first place. trolls pretty much just get chewed on. but hey if that makes you happy then by all means do it, just keep in mind that you should draw a line. some of the comments are pretty much hurtful and mean. it's way above the line of trolling and more along the line of cyber bullying. waste of time if you ask me, i'd rather focus on my architecture stuff.
let us do our thing. we're not hurting anybody. plus bronies are not too overly obsessed with one thing, we are not some pony centralized cult. we actually do and enjoy other things like the super bowl (i'm not american so i dont know what tha actually is), playing minecraft & other video games, we are also passionate about our career in music, digital arts, literature, etc. the typical "brony living under their mothers basement" is just a stereotype by haters. heck i'm a brony and i'm an architecture major living away from my parents and other family member, and i have my future planned and ahead of me.
also some bronies watch the show as hipsters. others we're converted haters ( i know, i can't believe i myself)
here these might be useful (ps. these are the two side that are perceived by haters and bronies)

Fans of MLP FIM are asses to you only because you treat them like dirt.
Though, you seem to treat them like dirt because they are asses to you.
Here's a bloody simple solution: Keep your mouth shut. There's no use in trying to talk sense to several thousand people who see you as a troll.
And don't go thinking I'm all for the fandom just because I'm a part of it. The amount of times I have to tell a Brony to shut up and stop feeding the trolls is astounding (About 10x more then the number of times I tell a troll off.)

Oh please, I stopped trying to smack sense in to their maggot-ridden brain long ago. I really don't give a shit when a brony tries to insult me, they can be asses all they want.

I though panel 7 implied Twilight went rogue and hurt Sunset Shimmer in the eighth panel.

I get the vibe of 'Sunset Shimmer dragged Celestia out of Hell, and almost died doing it'.

For a minute, I thought you'd be doing an allusion to "The Prodigal Son" parable.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is.
The "daughter" (Sunset Shimmer) becomes fed up with waiting, so she leaves. Then, after hitting rock bottom, she returns to her "mother" (Celestia), to ask forgiveness. Celestia is so happy to see her, that she gives Sunset back her "birthright" (being a princess/alicorn).
tada!

Except in "The Prodigal Son", the titular son returns not as a son but as a servant. Sore there was a party for him, but…
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, he did return in the hopes of at least becoming a servant, but his father was so happy to see him that he gave the son the birthright of the firstborn, causing his brother to fly into a rage and leave his family.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't think he flew into a rage and left his family. Are you sure you read the Bible? Because I have, and nowhere did it state that the other son rage and leave.

Luke 15:28-30
"[28] The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. [29] But he answered his father, 'Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. [30] But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’
Maybe he didn't leave, but he certainly became pissed.

That I think I can agree on. I only remember the Books of Matthew and Mark. And some of John's.

I see Bad Shit coming down and Shimmer Redeems herself, but the implication that bugs me is "traitorous Twilight caused the war", which is something I don't like at all, or "she dies", which isn't much good either. Where is Twilight in the later panels?

Excactly, precisely. Perfectly. Love it!

Thank you so much for making this. I love to see some love for Sunset as a character, especially when it seems sometimes like I'm the only one who likes her.

Woah. Somehow this has given me a new head canon. Sunset Shimmer... Could she have been Celestia's daughter? Is that why she wanted to conquer Equestria? The frustration of being next in line to an immortal has to be a strain.

I'd so love for Sunset to be Celestia's daughter. Just thinking of the implications that wold have for EG's Celestia is riveting.

I think panel 7 does show the war properly. When I looked I didn't think Sunset fought Celestia. I figured massive event where Sunset gets hurt and comes back to Celestia. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I'm confused. Did you or did you not intend for Twilight to have turned evil and almost killed the now-mostly-reformed Sunset Shimmer?

This is what I can infer about the comic
Panel 1: Celestia's new student Sunset Shimmer as a Foal
Panel 2: Sunset begins her magic training with Celestia as a young Filly.
Panel 3: Sunset begins to get tired of and possibly dispise Celestia. Without Celestia knowing indicated by Celestia's oblivious smile.
Panel 4: Sunset leaves Equestria for the "Human" world to persue her own malicious goals. Celestia is very sad at losing her friend, student, and, possibly, step-daughter. Represented by the dark background.
Panel 5: Celestia's new promising student Twilight Sparkle. The events of Seasons 1-3 happen.
Panel 6: Twilight becomes an Alicorn and possible heir to the Equestrian throne. The events of EQG and Season 4 happen.
Panel 7: (Using the artist's discription that "A massive war happened, where Sunset Shimmer steps in and helps fight."): Twilight becomes mad, or corrupted, with power and begins a massive civil war to de-throne Celestia and take the Equestrian throne by force. Celestia is again sad that another one of her friends and student betrayed her, represented by the darkness in the background. Celestia is also in danger this time because of the war, represented by the 4 red-eyed shadows. Sunset Shimer hears about the war and the threat against Celestia. Sunset goes through the Human-Pony portal and helps defend Celestia in the final confrontation of the war between Celestia and he allies and Twilight Sparkle.
Panel 8: During the final confrontation of the war, Sunset is badly hurt, possibly almost dying by intercepting a magical blast from Twilight, with her horn, that would've killed Celestia, and Celestia is afraid of losing her.
Panel 9: Celestia personally cures Sunset and forgives her for her wrong doings in the past.
Panel 10: Sunset is healed, becomes an Alicorn for saving Celestia's life, and becomes the heir to the Equestrian throne.
Panel 11: Sunset and Celestia live happily together in a mother-daughter relationship. Also the changed background color represents the begining of a new era or age.
That is my personal theory of the story the comic is representing.
