Stranded after the loss of her Airship, Daring Do treks the trails of the Amapone Rainforest, searching for an path back to civilization.
Written for the BUCK 2013 Flash Fic contest, a competition where we participants had to write a fic in 45 minutes about 3 random topics chosen at the start, which were Llamas Pihranas and pyjamas. This story somehow was deemed the best by a team of highly qualified judges (including Knighty) then rewritten from memory because I was too tipsy to remember to collect my story when I won...

Ok. I laughed. This was an amusing quickie and I can see why it won/placed/whatever.
And you wrote it while drunk? Even. Better.

Thanks! A quick laugh is all I could have hoped for! And yes, the con venue sold some excellent pony-themed cocktails!

I KNEW I'd herd a pony pun for Amazon, but I couldn't remember exactly what it was... Oh well, it's what I used in the original so I guess I'll keep it in.
I wish I thought of that...
In all fairness to RD, that wasn't a bad story till the self insert.
Oh, now I really am impressed. That was brilliant for 45 minutes, despite that little hint of the dreaded shipping...

Thanks! I'm excited to read yours! I thought briefly about doing something crazy like a poem like yours, but I always end up wanting to use all the over-used rhymes...
Yea, This is pretty good.
I'm glad you managed to re-do it, it would have been a shame if the winning fic was just lost to the sands of time (and probably a binbag somewhere. (Along with Steven.)).

I think it's going to have to be a "based on" thing rather than the original, since I'm pretty sure it was nowhere near 1,000 words. And it's no false modesty on my part when I say I think your story is much better than what I wrote, certainly in terms of structure. But I do intend to get something posted before too long, even so.
