Magical mystery cure is awesome especially celestias balled but one thing sticks out….

Are we really expected starswirl the bearded didn’t know anything about friendship (he was specifically involved in the founding of equistria) funny though because if this was just never brought up again it’d probably be easily forgotten about but it becomes even more of a glaring issue in shadow play, not only do we learn that starswirl was celestia’s teacher (ya know Celestia… the pony who encouraged twilight to actually find friendship) but we also learn he was the leader of the original elements of harmony the pillars, ok… so are we honestly expected to believe that these five ponies just weren’t friends especially given the era they lived in
