“Theres a certain thing about Celestia that Im very surprised no one has touched on. Ive never seen it mentioned in discussion, in fan fiction, art, or anything. Its the fact that Celestia has Future Sight. No really, its canon. It confuzzles me that people dont play with this more often. I think its fascinating because it kinda justifies a lot of the crazy stuff Celestia does. Like, how could she have been comfortable sending Twilight off on all kinds of crazy-dangerous missions? Future Sight. How did she manage to defend Equestria for 1,000 by herself? Future Sight. Why does she always seem to know more than everyone else and always have a plan? Future Sight.
 
Although, she definitely has been surprised before, so I suspect there are limits to it. Like maybe in Twilights Kingdom, she just saw Discord celebrating with everypony and just figured Discord is the answer to this problem! (And I guess he was, technically.) I just feel like theres so much to explore! Like, did she send the Apples to the edge of the Everfree because she knew Applejack would be an Element Bearer, and would be needed close by for when Nightmare Moon returned? Did she covertly arrange for all the mane 6 to live in Ponyville? See what Im saying? This is fun stuff here!”
