To refresh/inform those unaware, for context, foals are created by a spark in a ponies eye! They are pure manifestations of a pony’s love, be it one pony, two, or more! Then at the perfect time of peace and serenity and privacy, the pony/ponies float into the air, glow, and back down with them comes a foal/foals! Ponies are born with the traits their parent(s) loved most about the other elements/ponies influencing their creation! Moving on, Rarity graduated school and soon after went to Canterlot for fashion and beauty. She instantly fell in love with the showstopping city - and a spark in her eye formed! She loved the lights, the architecture, the design, the ponies there - everything. However, after some semesters at the school, she realized they were only teaching her how to make what sells and follow trends. She connected deeply at her core with creating things in tune with the magic of the world, the school rejected these elements of fashion and beauty. A couple months later after the spark has lied dormant, Rarity’s class is forcing her to make a dress she doesn’t like - and in a burst of impulse, she creates something she loves instead - something so truly HER - it isn’t her best work but she just loves having her freedom for creation back! In that moment she begins glowing and floating, and Sweetie Belle appears! She then connects the dots, part of why she was feeling so off was her spark, along with her lack of passion for the school’s teachings - and she realizes she wants to go home to ponyville and start a business from the ground up and raise Sweetie Belle with her community! When she returns, Pinkie Pie, who had known her briefly but never engaged much, throws her a birthday and welcome back party 2-in-1! They really bond and Rarity is very grateful to know her, and instantly clicks. She ends up becoming so consumed by her work it leaves her without many friends, and she slowly drifts from Pinkie, feeling guilty that she can’t return all the nice favors and gifts Pinkie gives her. Later on, Twilight moves into town and Rarity is invited by Pinkie to the party being thrown for her! Pinkie and Rarity click again, as they have a positive association and Pinkie welcomes her back with open arms, and Pinkie convinces Rarity to go out on the town for a night - with Sweetie! Sweetie and Rarity instantly love Pinkie, winning both of their approval, and Sweetie asks for her to be her ‘Pinkie Dad,’ which Rarity gives some serious thought to and later makes a reality, very happy with the fact she’s won Sweetie’s approval! Eventually Rarity finds the charm and beauty in Ponyville, realizing the beauty in everything because of Sweetie and Pinkie and her friends, but visits Canterlot regularly to show Sweetie what caused her spark and to celebrate her love for the city, which eventually becomes much more accepting of down to earth fashion! Final note, she loves singing and gems! Pinkie finds gems with her crystal pony abilities and Rarity digs them up with her claws! Pinkie takes some to sell for their medicinal healing properties and Rarity takes some for her fashion work! Also, she doesn’t like flying as her wings are thin and iridescent, and spike looks up to her like a big sister and learns a lot about dragon culture from her!
