All she ever wanted was a sister. Perhaps it was too much to ask.

Scootaloo is thrilled when Rainbow Dash invites her to the annual Pegasus Beach Party. Finally it's her chance to lay her lingering insecurities to rest. But when Dash then seems determined to avoid spending time with her, she's left instead to wonder whether Rainbow Dash really wants her for a sister. Or even a friend.

I am too, it's well written. Its obvious Dash is way too distracted to norice any issues with Scootaloo, of which she most likely ha a lot in this story. 3254373

Fluttershy is not Psychomantic and she does not have brain issues, why would u say that I think its a bit offensive......:flutterrage:

Great start. Well balanced. Fun style. I think one of the reasons so many people love Rainbow Dash is that despite her high self opinion we all know that beneath is an excellent heart that is insecure and a soul that will laugh at itself faster than you can. I love it when good writers explore those secondary areas.
All the Mane 6 have their flaws but that's why we love them. The personification of feelings is a clever device and well employed especially as a character link between Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo. Great scene with Fluttershy!
You will be my first follow. Looking forward to the next chapter.

More Scoot and Dash? Yes, please. And more pegasi in one place! :yay:

Still, a very different and well done story. I think people just aren't clicking on it because they think its another tired idea. Which this time it is not. MOAR! :flutterrage:

That was cool. Nice to see something other than 'my old teacher was evil'

And this is why communication is essential...

Now this is a well done Scootaloo story! I don't care if its a tired idea, it still well done. Also you should consider adding a SAD tag.

Damn it, Rainbow! Just one misstep after another.

I don't think Rainbow is learning anything because she keeps calling Scoots, squirt. That is not her name. Grow up and act responsible, Dash.

Fluttershy should have used the Stare.

My general chest area tingles with emotion since the previous chapter.

You got Rainbow's perspective perfectly in lines like this:

What if Squirt hated her? I'm like :facehoof: really Dash? Wow, someone needs to be taken a step down lol. Also MOAR!

3267097 i completely agree. fluttershy should have Stared her into submission.

Very, very nice so far. I'll be interested to see where this goes. :pinkiehappy:

I can totally see how this has gotten no downvotes yet. This story is awesome, although I can't help but want to smack Dash for not remembering that she said she was Scoots sister. As well as ignoring everything about her other than when it comes time to fluff her ego. She doesn't know if she has family, what she likes, or any other part of her life. I'm disappointed in her, but I'm looking forward to seeing if she ever salvages what she's ruined.

Oh god my eyes. Great story.

i love it the epilogue a lot and what are you going to do for your next story

omg i loved this chapter :scootangel:

May be well trodden ground, but this was excellent. I enjoyed it a lot and the ending was very satisfying. Loved the AJ and Rarity part.

i dont think scoots is going to be happy

this was a fantastic short story. I see it joining the best scootaloo stories soon once it gets the attention it deserves.

This chapter hit way too close to home. It was great, but emotionally painful to read.

40 likes. 40 pathetic likes. Why does it not have at least 200?

Read this right after reading your first story to see if it would be as impressive, and it certainly was. I couldn't stop thinking throughout that Scootaloo was majorly overthinking everything all the time though.

very sweet story well written good luck on any future projects you do :twilightsmile:

A very nice story. I really liked Pale Frost as a character, and his history with Dash.

awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :rainbowkiss: i would finish this storyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy :pinkiehappy:

awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :rainbowkiss: i would finish this storyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy :pinkiehappy:

Okay, I have just made an account so I could comment.This was one of the best stories I have read.It's amazingly well written and touching.I've read it in one sitting, didn't even notice an hour has passed. :rainbowkiss: Amazing work.

You know this would've been a great spot to throw the reformed Discord in. Instead of Applejack using the reverse psychology trick on Rainbow Dash, it could've been Discord to be all "oh, you don't care about that flightless little Pegasus filly, and why should you?"

What IDIOT disliked this story! This is golden! This is perfect! This is awesome! That one person who disliked this story needs to be slapped across the face.
This was very heartwarming, and a very realistic tale of Rainbow Dash realizing what it's like to be a true sister, and how much Scootaloo truly needs her.

now this is what I call a damned good story. Wow, thanks for both bringing a tear to my eye and for making me smile. I'm a huge sucker for rainbow/scoot family fics. :pinkiesmile:

I was re-reading this and I've noticed that I haven't comented on it. This story is amazing and has made my top ten. Seriously soo good. :scootangel::scootangel::scootangel::scootangel::scootangel: out of :scootangel::scootangel::scootangel::scootangel::scootangel:

You are a humble writer .It's a grand piece you have here. No waste of anyones time, Entertaining, easy to read, heart warming....

After the show Spike had at the Library' :moustache:
All the little ones were waiting for their families to pick them up,
Sweetie Belle laughingly said to Apple Bloom "If Dragons are so scary why does my big sister take her 'Spikey Wikey' on gem hunting trips?":unsuresweetie:
Giggles came from the little fillies & colts, "Spike has a mare frie..."
Pinkie poped in like an exploding party favor "FOREVER!":pinkiehappy:

Well done Sir,:yay::twilightblush::rainbowlaugh::pinkiehappy::raritywink::moustache::ajsmug:

Y'all still got an entire town you can be a role model for.

OMC! The feels! They burn! I forgot just how many feels this fic had in it. Almost to the last chapter again. Seriously well worth the re-read.

This is what sleepless in ponyville was missing. Rainbow Dash absolutely has the will and loyalty to be a good sister, but not the patience or emotional intelligence. Kind of like rarity at the beginning of Sisterhooves social.

Oh, look at that. Another 8686 story starting out with great characterization. Imagine that.

No, but seriously. The characterization here was fantastic. The description had me worried Dash might be a bit off, but she was fantastic. I don't even know why I doubted you, at this point.

Oh, that was great.

At the same time, I get the feeling Scootaloo won't be so happy :unsuresweetie:

Yep, this is about how I expected it to go.
