Reform School restarted · 9:36pm Jul 9th, 2020
Yeah. I have a better idea of how I want to do the plot. I left the old version of the first chapter up, though.

Well, after the events of Season 7, some characters have given me more to comment on in regards to their redemption arc. Plus, we got another reformation, more or less, from the Equestria Girls franchise, which definitely got people talking. Here's the first version, from a season ago. Before we begin, let me make clear that I'm not going to cover King Sombra's redemption arc in the comics, or
I have been kind of nostalgic lately. My life is going moderately well, I have a job I like, I have been making better life choices and I haven't done anything too stupid in the last month or so. So, as usual, I started thinking about some of the past situations I've been involved in and one thing crossed my mind. I was a horrible individual. Not evil, more amorally mischievous and more than a little manipulative.
Well, now I've reviewed the movie, it's only natural that the reformations ranking be updated. But there's been a couple other reformations to consider. Including one I'm very reluctantly including here despite my absolute detesting of it. Here's the previous version, from the end of Season 7, the only rule is I'm not including the reformation of any comics exclusive villains. And as
We finally have a display of reformed Venom Stinger!
Random side note: I was humming “Creep” by Radiohead when making this. I dunno why.

Well I've been brainstorming and I think I know where I want this to ultimately end up. As a manipulator, Cozy Glow would actually make a wonderful counselor and I think Trixie also sees this. Like she said in one of the previous chapters, "Getting people to think and look at things a certain way in my profession is very useful." I'm thinking that should be the end goal at this point.
Starlight Glimmer's reformation continues to remain a divisive subject among the fandom, with some people praising her, other condemning her, and many others (like myself) being more neutral to her while generally leaning more towards love or hate for her. One of the most common complaints is that Starlight's reformation pails in comparison to Sunset Shimmer's and that she was a bad attempt at creating a Sunset Shimmer character in the show since the writers and show staff said
But I always have to say it anyways: Queen Chrysalis needs to be Reformed.
I mean seriously, Do we want Queen Chrysalis to be Evil forever? Here's a simple answer: NO.
But am I the only one who wants to see Chrysalis be reformed in a future episode of MLP: FIM?
I mean let's put it this way, it would just be awesome to see Chrysalis be Reformed for the sake of Fan Material of her as a Reformed Changeling to come true in Canon Material.
Plus for Goodness sake, We don't want her to be Evil all the time, right?
Andrew Shepherd, the Lone Human, the Sword of Equestria... Was feeling down as he sat in an armchair in the Golden Oaks Library. Chrysalis, former Queen of the Changelings and now Friendship Intern, had been reading some books on beekeeping while her little Changelings played in a playpen nearby. Shepherd sighed. Chrysalis rolled her eyes.
Chrysalis: "Stop moping."
Shepherd: "I'm not moping."
Chrysalis: "Twilight and the others will be back soon! And you are moping."
Her redemption: it was quick, yes, but for the most logical reasons. The PRINCESS OF FRIENDSHIP ASKED HER TO BE FRIENDS. Her entire motivation for enforcing equality was so that she would never have to face a bad friendship like with Sunburst! That's like if Chrysalis was offered total rulership of and love from the Crystal Empire on the condition that she doesn't ever try to take love from Equestria! No duh Starlight reformed! In fact, she'd probably have reformed even faster if not for her
So I just did what I believe will be the final proofreading to chapter 11 of Trixie Interviews and Cozy Glow is now officially reformed! My editor still has chapter 10 and will be getting that back to me in about a month or so and then I'll give him this... I saw Cozy get reassured by all of her friends before trotting into the throne room and making an official apology for all of her heinous acts! And she made a new friend in the last chapter! Little Snack, the active earth filly! The truth
”...And then we add this lovely flower, Dandelion, and then-”
“Dandy-what-lon?”
”Dandelion, Phar.”
”Wait a minute! Are you saying we put a lion in here? Uncle Pharynx won’t agree!“
”Dandelion, a plant, not lion. Now, as I said-”
”Wait a minute! Are we seriously adding more weird smelling plants around?”
