Luna Eclipsed showed how Luna would let her hair down and have fun. The comics kind of ran with that. Dram Luna is kind, but stern. In the two instances we've seen it, she's more serious, but that's also because it's work time for her. Helping out in dreams is not the time for the fun-loving Luna we see at the end of Luna Eclipsed or the comics.
That being said, I still stand by my statement that Luna is kind of defined just by that dream walking thing now, and hasn't gotten much development since S2.

I will literally never understand why you think AJ went downhill after Season 1. Like, seriously, never. She really only had one episode of her own in Season 1!

She's a hard-working pony who loves her job, her family, and her friends, and will do anything for them. Any faults she has were still evident in the Faust-Renzetti days, and she was pretty underutilized then as well.

Erm, party planner and part time baker at Sugarcube Corners. Granted both seem to be rather lenient.
Fizzbuzz wrote:Well, she also lives in Sugarcube Corner, so I suppose the Cakes count her room as part of her pay. Her cheer is vital to keeping things running around town (see: MMC), so if she needs to "borrow" some of the store's budget for party supplies, I'm sure the Cakes don't mind.
Fizzbuzz wrote:Given the somewhat overlapping scope there as well as Sugarcube Corner's small size, I always just rolled those into one general job for her. Like you said, her actual duties seem to be quite lenient.

Now, how she's paying the bills, no idea. I guess she's pretty much broke most of the time, spending all her money on perfecting the craft and buying supplies. Sort of like Rarity, I guess
