Someone seeing the beauty everyone else can in themselves? Worth any amount of treatment.

I like this a lot.

I can't help but feel however that the mirror would be very unstable, with even the slightest breeze causing it to topple.

I almost started to cry when I saw this. Two of my little brothers are autistic so this really touched me.

This is beautiful.

To be able to look in the mirror and not be afraid of what you see is one of the hardest things to do. Nothing to do with vanity or sanity but laying to rest demons, putting aside pain and leaving the cause of ones suffering int he past. As an anorexic who habitually starves myself, this image is a reflection of the place I want to get to. I've battled with self-image and self-hate problems and its a hard struggle; Nurse Redheart knows the work and struggle that has gone into the rehabilitation of Screw Loose and the wonder in her face, the surprise and joy is a bittersweet victory (as Redheart's face implies). This is me utterly projecting, I know, but it pleases me to know that the fan base looks deeper than "hey look, a barking pony" and finds deeper resonances and envisions rehabilitation for even the broken ones. Especially the broken ones.

After the "Just For Sidekicks" episode I wanted to revisit this image, as its a bridge between "Barking Mad Pony" used as a joke and the short continuity snippet we saw which shows that in Equestria rehabilitiation is possible and its a place I so very very much want to be. This is an image that helps me find a way.

Keep her way from Stink Blot though. He likes to undo years of psychiatric treatment just to watch the mayhem unfold.

I've not actually seen much of Screw Loose, considering how interesting she could be as a character.
This is great, it really captures the moment. ^u^

Dragon-of-Twilght [2012-12-04 23:34:30 +0000 UTC]

I am just so glad that Screw Loose is getting some positive attention; I really hope she is starting to recover and this isn't just a good spell for the moment.

Well, we see her in later seasons and her cameo implies that she's now sane.

tamalesyatole [2012-11-30 04:37:12 +0000 UTC]

Daaaww... Cute, but the Nurse's smile seems a little sad/worried... it adds a heavy "something" that, in my case, I think it's sad. It's not bad, but given the background of Screw Loose...

jaybugjimmies In reply to tamalesyatole [2012-12-01 03:01:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I wanted the picture to have a tinge of sadness, I was thinking that Redheart would be worried about whether Screw Loose's good spell was going to last or not.
