My Secret Unicorn / int_13eea985	comment	Arbitrary Skepticism: When Lauren's friends tell her in Starlight Surprise that a tree house in the woods is haunted, she dismisses the rumors right away.

My Secret Unicorn / int_21fd09a7	comment	How Do I Shot Web?: Twilight has this problem after he first transforms into a unicorn. He figures out how to fly right away (although his first flight is awkward and unsteady), but although he knows he has other powers, he doesn't figure out how to use them or even what they are until later books.

My Secret Unicorn / int_22a27b19	comment	Alpha Bitch: Jade Roberts, who's Lauren's new classmate at Silver River Elementary, is a spoiled rich kid who used to own Twilight, but who didn't like him because he was too quiet and wasn't flashy enough. Her dad got her a new pony named Prince, after which she almost completely ignored Twilight. By the time the Fosters buy Twilight from the Robertses in The Magic Spell, Twilight is dirty and neglected. At school, Jade brags about how much better Prince is than the other kids' ponies. In Dreams Come True, she and her friend Monica Corder make fun of Mel Cassidy's drawing of a horse, and Mel complains that at pony club meetings, Jade insults Mel's pony Shadow for being too afraid to jump.

My Secret Unicorn / int_5d41eb9	comment	Figure It Out Yourself: In The Magic Spell, a former Unicorn Friend named Mrs Fontana gives Lauren a book called The Life of a Unicorn that partly explains how Lauren can free Twilight's powers, but doesn't contain the Turning Spell that she needs. Lauren asks Mrs Fontana what the spell is, but Mrs Fontana says that she'll have to find it for herself. While Lauren is reading the book, Twilight nudges the last page with his muzzle, showing her that the last page is glued to the back cover. When Lauren peels the page back, she finds the spell. In later books, Mrs Fontana won't give Lauren and Twilight concrete advice for how Twilight can use his powers. In Starlight Surprise, she tells Lauren why she's so secretive: being on Earth is a test for Twilight, if he does really well he might get to become a Golden Unicorn when he goes back to Arcadia, and Helping Would Be Killstealing.

She briefly gets excited about meeting Twilight, but quickly goes back to acting totally uninterested. Much to Jessica's frustration, she always gets her way, which is why the family goes to the mall almost every day even though Jessica wants to do other things. It turns out that the reason she acts like that is because she's sad about moving.

In Stronger Than Magic, Lauren wants to do a good deed, so Twilight uses his magic to spy on all her classmates to see if any of them need help. But since none of them really need help, and since Lauren's intervention either does nothing or makes their minor problems worse, Twilight uses up all his magic and falls ill. When a real emergency occurs, Twilight has no magic left to help.
