This isn't mine, but some of you will really love it
As Twilight Sparkle, we have Willow Rosenberg (Alyson Hannigan). Because she is the extremely bookish one, the not-strictly-sociable one who still loves her friends very much, the one representing the “element of magic.” Twilight Sparkle didn’t have friends except Spike before moving from Canterlot to Ponyville, when she learned about the importance of friendship and teamwork; Willow didn’t really have a lot of friends except Xander before Buffy moved to Sunnydale, when she learned firsthand about the importance of friendship and teamwork. I will also note that Twi’s official My Little Pony wiki article states that at one point she does use a memory spell on her friends (I haven’t seen that far yet, but hey).
and
As Fluttershy, we have Tara Maclay (Amber Benson). Finally, another girl whose pony analogue element suits her wholly: the “element of kindness.” Tara is the absolute nicest and the sweetest; she is also (at least at first) quite shy. She’s good at taking care of people, but she can and does get fierce when it’s required of her, even if she personally doesn’t think of herself as being particularly bold and daring like the others. And she is also (at least at first) quite shy. She’s good at taking care of people, but she can and does get fierce when it’s required of her, even if she personally doesn’t think of herself as being particularly bold and daring like the others. And she is just the gosh-darn sweetest and I adore her. So there.
