This is interesting... I'm intrigued by this mare, and the whole... thing behind her.
Hmm...

Nicely done!

The Feature Box shall tremble!

This is a pleasant surprise.

I'm definitely tracking this, as the story does have my attention so far. I like the writing style you used for this one. It fits Daring Do's character and identity in my opinion. Anyway, I wish you the best of luck on this story and any future projects of yours.

A new KKat story???

Instant favorite and definitely going to read later.

Well that was an interesting start to this story.

I've read it before, but this story always gives an interesting view to the zebra culture and some interesting idea's an how things possibly evolved in the war from the zebras' side of things.

WHO DARE GIVE THIS A DIS LIKE

Nah I'm joking you don't like it that's alright

A new kkat story? Thought I'd never see the day, but now I have... and a glorious day it is.

Oh wow seeing that "stories 1" change to a "stories 2" sure is a funny feeling. Definitely gonna read this later.
Hype up boys and girls!

KKat wrote a new story?!?!?!
Instant favorite and track!
Time to read a new epic.

The feature box is going to be torn a new one with this story.

6587107 I think they mean comments between commenters, rather then on the story itself.

6587173
It's hilariously ironic that Jake's comment about the wrongness of policing comments one disagrees with actually got deleted, eh?
I mean, at least his point got proven pretty conclusively...

Confusing, and hard to understand. There's a lot that doesn't make sense, and the whole thing is very dull and uninteresting.

6587173

Possibly, but the fact remains that a wasteland of deleted comments is hardly the mark of someone wanting to engender debate and conversation. And what exactly constitutes, "rudeness, hostility, hate-speech or trolling?" If I say the story is crap, is that "rudeness?"

6587232

Actually, I deleted it myself. Felt like I was being mean, but on further contemplation, I think my point stands, that I rarely think highly of people who delete comments in their stories. Unless someone comes in spouting racial slurs, all comments should be tolerated as long as they deal with the story in some way.

6587256
Ah, well fair enough. Carry on.

OOOOOOOOOOOH

I can't believe that there's a new Kkat story... SIGN ME UP BOYS!

Demoman: FFFFFFRRRRRRREEEEEEEDDDDDDOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!

Heavy: We do this!

Scout: Oh! My! Freaking! Stupid! Crap!

Spy: Laughs Well now...

Engineer: Now I've seen everything...

Sniper: Holy Dooley!

Medic: Unbelievable...

Soldier: Holy sweet mother of Joseph!

Pyro: Makes incomprehensible sounds while sounding cheery

Kkat, could I hump your leg, I would. Without hesitation.

KKAT POSTED A NEW STORY WHAT

6587252 Thank you for your comment. Of course there are things that don't make sense. Bear in mind that while "Origin Story" is a short story, you are still less than a tenth of the way into it. If all the mysteries were solved already, that would be pretty poor storytelling.

As for dull, yes. The beginning of the story is definitely dull, as Daring Do herself complains at the end of the Second Mission Report. I'm pretty sure most of my readers know it's not going to stay that way. But then, I can think of another adventure story that started with guests having dinner... and if you dropped it at that point, you really missed out.

So your still in the game, can't wait to see what our progenitor matriarch has in store.

6587256 First of all, thank you for admitting that you deleted your comment. To address your concerns: I understand why moderating the comments section is controversial, so I state my policy openly. I require the same good behavior on my blogs and my other story. That story has over 5400 comments, and I have found it necessary to delete less than twenty comments. The bulk of those were from a group that decided to use my comment section for EQD-bashing, and most of the rest involved racial slurs or homophobia.

I do not discourage criticism. However, I expect critics to be polite. Someone who does not like the story has the option to simply say "I do not like this story" or to explain why in a courteous and articulate manner. The comment by JumpingSpookyFrogs is a good example of this. However, if the poster is incapable of voicing their opinion without being vulgar or hostile, then they will need to find another platform.

6588642 See, asking me to continue to read after it's already failed to catch my interest isn't a sign of a good story. If I have to be told, 'No, keep reading, it gets better, I promise', then that means that you as an author have failed to make the start of the story sufficiently interesting for me to stick around.

6588658 Fair enough. You have a limited amount of free time, and shouldn't feel obliged to waste it on something you don't enjoy. At the same time, I'm of the impression that people who give up on a story this quickly are like people who give up on My Little Pony after having only watched through the opening music of the first episode. Or who abandon a computer game during the tutorial. If you abandon everything that doesn't provide instant gratification, you'll miss out on a lot in life.

I don't expect the story to appeal to everyone. And in the interest of crafting a quality story, I'm willing to lose readers who lack patience. Best of luck to you.

This is really interesting. Enjoying every minute of such rich words flowing from such a story. HoweverI am a bit ppuzzled on how the ambassador and everypony else knew about the Friendship games. Wasn't that in the other dimension?

6591383 Thank you!

The Equestria Games, as seen here:

Crap. I’ve got to be losing my touch. That would have to be the most boring start of a Daring Do book ever.

If I wrote until I was 80, it wouldn't be half as good as something you've deemed boring.

She had been about to say that she had noticed the young pegasus mare wasn’t in the portrait of Goldentongue and his family. But as she looked across the table at the picture – Goldentongue and his wife standing in front of the ambassadorial manor – she realized that there was a third figure standing in front of them. There always had been. But, for some reason, A.K.’s image was oddly de-saturated, as if there was a fault in the film, and it made her difficult to see.

The young Daring Do stared. And for a moment, she was struck by the thought that someone or something had taken a pencil and tried to erase A.K. from the picture.

A.K. seems to be a ghost or something. Or A.K. is a reflection of Daring Do's spirit from the future? Well I'm curious!

I actually haven't read Origin Story before (maybe the first chapter), but I'm glad that you took the time to publish it as a story. Fallout 4's got me excited to look at the Equestrian Wasteland once more.

As for herself, Daring Do just couldn’t keep her eyes on the young mare sitting at the far end of the table.

I think this should be "off".

Professor Underhill
Not sure if that's a Lord of the Rings reference or not but if it is definitely nice.
This makes me wish they had actually copies of the Daring Do books out for adults and kids
Not that I need a WHOLE another book series to add to my library
