I really think G5 should've been a PREQUEL to G4, instead of a sequel. It could've been about the pillars, or Celestia and Luna as kids, or the founders of Equestria, etc.
That's actually a really great idea. G5 being in the same universe as G4 was most likely a last minute decision made by Hasbro in order to get G4 fans to care about G5, which would explain a few things.
But if they really wanted to do that, why not make it a prequel that doesn't completely destroy the established world, and make everything blander by having it take place in a modern society with smartphones and social media? Lol
The prequel G5 could've shown any number of things:
The founders of Equestria bringing the three pony kinds together and creating Equestria. 
Tumblr media
The Pillars of Equestria, who were brought together by Stygian to defeat the Sirens. It could've focused on their adventures. 
Tumblr media
Celestia and Luna as kids. It could've shown their backstory and how they became separated from the other alicorns. Starswirl finds them and takes them in, training them to be the rulers of Equestria. 
Tumblr media
Luna's descent into Nightmare Moon over the course of the show.
Tumblr media
The backstory behind Alicorns and where they came from. BTW, they gave away where Alicorns come from in a THROWAWAY LINE in G5.

They could've adapted some of the Fiendship is Magic issues that showed how certain villains came to be (Tirek, Chrysalis, Sombra). Some other villain backstories too, how they rose to power, and their defeats.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Princess Cadence and Spike's origins. Their parents, how they became separated from them, and them being found and brought to Equestria. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I could go on, honestly. But you get the point.
Hasbro doesn't actually own all of the rights to G4, they share it with Discovery Family. So whenever G5 shows or talks about something from G4, Hasbro has to pay royalties to Discovery Family…
So instead of having the prequel G5 be exclusively on a streaming service, or YouTube Kids, they could've just… made the show on Discovery Family, the same as G4. That way they don't have to pay extra money for no reason…
Whatever 😅 I'll stop b**ching

Star Swirl has the oldest PonXbox known in Equestria.
Yes, this wasn't even the tenth time.

Star Swirl is my forgetful artist. He's, over the years he's been alive, has let his studies control his life. Not out of anything other than pure passion of the craft. Constantly goaded to eat by those who care for him most, he only eats when it's most optimal for work.  
I also imagine him being much more Scrooge-like than his show counterpart. He's more uptight and by-the-book than even Twilight in the early seasons. If it's not in his nature to do it, he won't. __________________ Interested in seeing these posts ahead of time?

A younger Scorpan and Star Swirl.
Tumblr media
Headcanons about Scorpan:
Scorpan was Star Swirl's first real friend!
Despite being bigger than them (and most ponies) Scorpan is younger than the Pillars.
After Tirek's imprisonment, Scorpan had returned home to tell his parents the news. But after that, he had returned to Equestria. By the time Scorpan came back, Stygian had already brought the Pillars together to defeat the Sirens, so Scorpan wasn't around for that. Scorpan reunited with Star Swirl and became friends with the other Pillars.
Scorpan helped the Pillars create the seed that would become the Tree of Harmony, but asked Star Swirl not to record his involvement (for unknown reasons).
After the Pillars sacrificed themselves to defeat the Pony of Shadows, Scorpan returned to his homeland once again.
Scorpan had found Spike's egg by itself in the middle of nowhere, and decided to take it with him. Scorpan decided to give it to Star Swirl, who gave it to Celestia and Luna. This is a reference to Generation 1 obviously.
The same way the Mane 6 got their elements from the Pillars, Spike got his element from Scorpan.
Scorpan's friendship with Stygian is similar to Spike's friendship with Starlight Glimmer.
Years after the Tree of Harmony grew, Scorpan returned to Equestria to take a branch from the Tree, and created the Staff of Sacanas.

Idea drawings for my AU out-of-context (Fluttershy one was drawn before my art skills really improved much):
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Being vulgar and edgy is only a small fraction of the idea, with the story overall being very emotional and character-driven. The idea is to serve as some kind of "absolute-stress-test" for FiM's values and morals, seeing how they apply in a more "realistically depressing" world. For what you see here, out-of-context, are mostly some small jokes thrown in.
But that's just the idea so far :p
