School Daze: Twilight and the EEA · 9:07am Jul 31st, 2022
My headcanon in School Daze is that the reason why Twilight was so strict with the EEA approved curriculum was that she really wanted to prove to Neighsay that non-pony creatures could be taught to be decent creatures.
In fact, Neighsay clearly said that he wanted the school to defend ponykind. And Twilight didn't even tell him that there were non ponies in the school.
I think Twilight intentionally withheld that info so she could convince Neighsay that non ponies had the potential for friendship just like ponies.
Of course it all failed apart and gave the exact opposite thing Twilight was intending.
I have to admit Twilight was pretty brave for attempting to convince Neighsay like this. But she was being a little risky withholding that and I wonder if she could have gotten in trouble for that if she weren't a princess.
