Personality[]
He had a heart of gold, he liked the legends of Twilight Sparkle and her friends, and he and his daughter were convinced that one day the Earth ponies, unicorns and pegasus could become friends again.
Argyle paid no attention to the alleged "history" of the tribes. He was very wise and emotional towards her daughter, making her believe that one day all ponies of all breeds would become friends with her again.
Unlike Phyllis Cloverleaf, who no one believed both of them and mocked them, Argyle never got angry and didn't listen to what other Earth ponies said. He felt more sorry for them, because they were not sincere, did not want to face problems and always wanted to stay the same.
He also encouraged Sunny by saying even if her friends don't believe her, the most important thing is that she stands up for what she believes in.
After he died, Sunny never forgot about him and how affectionate he was towards her and continued to hope that one day he would do what her father wanted.
