Sam Cole


Just a veteran writing love stories for fun. If you want help or just to chat, hit me up, I always love to meet new people.

When a gossipy Rarity sets up the idea of using a spell to help her and Twilight find their true loves, they were biting off more than they could chew. Now these two mares will go to great lengths to change their destinies. But is all of that effort just spent spinning their wheels, or can Rarity and Twilight make their own destiny.

Story takes place between Games Ponies Play and Magical Mystery Cure.

not a fan of the shipping, but a good story none the less

Ank for the shout out man and i like the story so far :pinkiehappy:
I'm not a sprarity fan but i feel sorry for spike :fluttercry:
I cant too see how it end....rarelight fovever :twilightsheepish: :heart: :raritywink:

Cute. Imma follow this one.

(Though I'm still waiting for a sequel to another Twarity story you wrote hint hint)

What Spike needs to go for is the second option: younger sister.

2744902 Buddy, that is good to know. When I first watched this Sam Cole guy, I came for the Damn It, but I stayed for most everything else.

Upvote and watching. And that's a good sign. I'm usually not a fan of shipping.

So yay, more Rarelight. I enjoyed it and will keep reading. The idea that they don't think of each other as prospects at all until they are forced to is an interesting hook. But a few things are weird. It's really not clear what happens in the bar, and I don't mean in the way you probably want. It's hard to pin down, but even during a rereading I find myself thinking I've missed something in the text rather than the characters being evasive about the events.

There's this bit

“No. You kissed me Twilight. It was not mutual,” Rarity shot back at her lavender friend. “Come on, you need to go home now.”

Where suddenly Rarity is no longer drunk, and all the dialogue around it is light heart-ed and tipsy.

Also Rarity is an Apple by marriage and adoption now, which is... tangential?:rainbowhuh: I hold no judgement since nothing's really happened there but that kinda seems like a fic in itself.

No love for spike :(

If twilight dates rarity, spike better date a really knock out mare or dragon.

2745801 In all honesty, the Rarity an Apple thing is my way of saying buck off Rarijack. I'm not even giving it a chance to fly. And think about it like this: Your best friend, of the same gender, who is far more drunk than you, just kissed you in the bar. Don't you think you'd sober up just a tad?

And in the whole fic there a going to be a lot of moments that are tangential. I like the tool of doing that to establish a world that doesn't depend on my characters actions alone, but is actually self sustaining. And they open the door for more comedy and randomness :pinkiehappy::pinkiecrazy:

Oh boy, I'm so gonna read this... but later, maybe when there are 2 more chapter uploaded.
Loved "Damn it Twilight, I love you!"

I think cadence just hates spike =/

I'm a little confused. When they kissed in the bar and got lemonade, were they lying? Everything from then onwards suggests so, but you never outright say so, or give any indication why they lied. As drunk as they were, I'm surprised they could lie convincingly.

Either that or I'm wrong and they really did taste lemonade, but then the bit at the end where they try again and say "still strawberries" makes no sense.

spike's revenge; four-way with celestia, twilight velvet and rarity's mom. :moustache:

2747280

I echo this sentiment. This was confusing.

2747280 Yes. They lied. They got strawberries and claimed lemonade because it disturbed them.

Of course, the spell didn't actually do anything anyway. It fixed them so when they kiss anyone other than each other, they get lemonade.

Watch. I just called the ending of the fic. Either A) Cadance was fucking with them, or B) She was trying to fix them up.

There's no such things as "soul mates."

:pinkiegasp: You just got my attention. That was most excellent.

The pace in the first half goes by blazingly fast. Other than that, I think this fic is pretty alright! Twilight and Rarity together sounds a tad odd, but I'm sure it could happen, given enough development.

2749115 Then Spike hooks up with Blueblood.

I'm not much for the Twilight and Rarity shipping :twilightoops: but I like the story so far

Still STRAWBERRIES... :twilightblush:

2751214
then tom and blueblood both cheat on spike with eachother.

2753740 Muy excellent. Then he turns to Crackle, and finds that...it (Is it a she?) has already gotten with Sweetie Belle. Just because.

Sweet. I can always use more RarLight.

It was over in a split second, both mare’s slipping almost to the floor in a state of pure inebriation

This is getting good! Nice Doctor Who reference.

Damn it, you two! Just accept destiny and get smooching!

Of course...bananas. :facehoof:

Wait, the last line confuses me. Wasn't twilight acting selfLESS? I mean she was sacrificing her happiness for what she thought would make Rarity happy. That doesn't strike me as selfish

2812643 She never considered Rarity's feelings either. You can actually be selfless and selfish at the same time. Kinda like doing the wrong thing for the right reasons.
2812425 yeah, I swear that actually has nothing to do with the bananas thing, it's a doctor who reference.

I was a bit disappointed when spike came up lemonade but if rarity gets strawberries off fancy pants someone is going to die.

2812748 Oh don't worry, I understood that one loud and clear. I'll have to admit, that was a pretty clever move on your part. I didn't see that one coming until I was already laughing.

Why would Twilight contact via mail to a married stallion?

Ehhh... Aloe reaction is a bit... over the top. Also the proper response from Twilight is "I tripped."

2813642
Fleur de Lis...it's french, but don't ask me to translate cuz idk what lis means :rainbowlaugh:

also, I love that Fluttershy/Discord bit, there needs to be more of that:yay:

2745979
“I’ll give you two the max time limit of seventy two hours. Three days, that’s it, to find your special somepony. After that, it’s back to the old fashioned way,”

And your soul will belong to me. Just so much "The Little Mermaid" vibes coming off this.

I think Cadence is playing a prank on them. Like the spell only tastes strawberries for the ponies who are under it and she wanted to get them drunk at the club so they might kiss each other and freak out or something. Also author's comment section. :rainbowlaugh: Well, only one way to find out...

2812748
“So I thought of something Twilight,” Rarity finally said, tried of the silence. “What if the spell gave a false positive to us because we were both under it’s charm?”

Called it.

“Yes, more over the banana daiquiri...” Rarity muttered. :rainbowlaugh: This is too good. Just last night I had a talk with my dad about what a daiquiri is, then my mom busted one out, then I thought "Wouldn't it be funny if there was a shirt that said 'Rarity wants YOU to make her a daiquiri.'"

Anyway, keep up the story. It's good so far and it should only get better.

All the charqcters were just funny as heck in this chapter. I'm so looking forward to the next one.

"Dawn of the second day.
36 hours reman"

Sorry couldn't help myself.

Anyway, great chapter, I especially loved the Doctor Who and Fluttershy parts.

Also

“I would not be surprised if Cadence gleams that from the letter in all honesty,”

I think you mean "gleans" there.

Anyway, I got a fever, and the only proscription is MOAR RareLight.

Now that Rarity's taken Spike need a new interest. I nominate Sweetie Belle!!!!

I always thought the song went
Twenty,
Twenty,
Twenty-Four hours to go.

Than again I could be wrong.

2889319 No, you're right, I just changed it up cause it was close enough:eeyup:

All kinds of fun this. Looking forward to more.

"Always take a banana to a party. Bananas are good!"
-The Doctor

"Her sister’s words steeled her"

Um... Princess Cadance isn't Twilight's sister 0_o

"I have to go. Ponyville in danger, friends to save.”
“Ah. So just a normal Tuesday then,”

Best line if the week, perhaps even year.

2967054 Sister in law. But I call my sister in law my sister, cause she's awesome like that. I think twilight would feel the same way about hers
