If it's a oneshot, you should mark it as 'Complete.'

Please write a sequel to this. It was amazing, so please continue with it.
Please.

:fluttercry: Depression has set in. Must... Watch... Hearts and Hooves... to... Laugh... Again...

Ohhh wow.

Mmmm I've faith rainbow will come back... le sigh.

Wow, that was a good read. Very good job!

That's the end? Fluttershy possibly dies because she was so eager for Dash's return she sat out in freezing cold?

I very much liked the story - it was well written (minus a few of typos, though the only one I remember is 'think' in Dash's last letter), unique and interesting - but that ending just seems completely abrupt and odd to me. Unless I'm missing something, which wouldn't surprise me.

Since the story is in first-person past tense, it's implied that Fluttershy wrote it after the events. I agree it might not have been clear though.

thanks for commenting! :twilightsmile:

Not clear to me, as it seems that Fluttershy died at the end there.

You must write another story. That is a great ending, but I really want to know what happens. Please.

Oh please oh please write a sequel! I need it!!!!:fluttercry::fluttercry:

277648 I am, with take flight's permission, writing a sequel. Will upload as soon as I get an editor to go over it with a fine-tooth comb.

278636 After I get some feedback, I am uploading a sequel to this. Just need an editor...

Avett Brothers reference? Nicely played.

As far as the story, I thought it was a nice little one-shot. First-person worked well for this story. But I thought the ending was an abrupt change in the way the story was told. Everything felt far more rushed and unclear than before. Other than, that, though, you have yourself a solid one-shot here.

Good, but with no apparent closure. A second chapter would/might be needed to properly end this wonderful little fic. Very good, ending aside.
