Don't use the asterisk (this thing * ) so much. If they're doing something like taking a breath or sniffling because they've been crying, try to make it flow naturally into or out of the dialogue, instead of just putting an asterisk there. This really helps with the minimum word requirement, providing a lot of "filler text".
Take this for example:

"Rarity...*sniff*"

Compared to:

"Rarity..." Fluttershy said with a sniff.

That's four extra words towards your 1000 word minimum.
A little more description would also help, as it would show more about the setting, and develop the story more, and provide even more "filler text".

I didn't mean just that one line. Find other spots that allow for elaboration on what a character is thinking or feeling, not just what they're doing.

I was glancing through the list of new stories, and I couldn't help but notice your 'short description'.

Mild Clop

Now, what has me so curious here is the fact that you are including clop of all things in a teen rated fic. I'm not sure if you realize what it actually is, but clop is the explicit depiction of sex.

To quote you some FAQ articles,
What defines whether a story is rated as teen or mature?

While the idea of 'maturity' is a difficult one to properly define, for the purpose of stories on Fimfic, the detail of a story's maturity level lies in the description and events contained therein. 'Teen' is anything more risque or salacious than content you might see in the show - overt shipping, foul language, minor violence with cursory descriptions, physical affection more intense than a quick peck on the lips - where 'mature' is anything that should require an aged or mature perspective to read; things like extreme violence, explicit descriptions of physical intimacy, or content intended for older audiences.

This is an answer that's difficult to pin down, so here's a quick guide to follow: 'Everyone' = content that would be acceptable in the show, with some bending for things like alluded shipping or very light affection, 'Teen' = content that is more mature than the stuff that appears on the show but doesn't push the envelope too far (light foul language, some romantic description), 'Mature' is anything that involves material that would require an 'adult supervision' recommendation on a tv broadcast (sex, extreme violence, etc). Just use your best discretion, and feel free to PM a mod if you have a question about the specific content of your story. At worst, you can always submit and be told that a change is required if the maturity tag you've selected doesn't match the discretion of the story-approval team.

When should I use the 'sex' and 'gore' tags?

This is simple enough: use 'gore' when there is explicit description of violence/grotesque imagery in your story, and use 'sex' when there's... well... sex. On a Teen rated story, 'sex' can be used to indicate sexual humor or situations that are heated but don't have explicit sex.

That being said, you should either reassess what content you have planned for the fic and decide whether or not you should adjust the story rating to mature, or adjust your 'short description'.

Interested to see how this goes, honestly. I follow story!

I put mild clop because it alludes towards it. There's no real like all in clop in the story. The reason it's there is one sentence in the second chapter that I'll be posting soon.

But you have a very good point, thank you. I edited the description.

3621656 Yeah, allusions to sex generally come with the Teen/Sex territory. :raritywink:

Much better than the original version. The story flows pseudo-naturally, but there are points where the rhythm was offset by a random word or abbreviation.
Like:

Behind her, Rarity was blushing even more than Flutters' and her mind was racing a mile a minute about what Flutters could possibly mean by that.

You could've left Fluttershy unabbreviated, and you don't need the second Flutters in there.
For instance:

Behind her, Rarity was blushing even more than Fluttershy, and her mind was racing a mile a minute about what she could have possibly meant by that.

Just some friendly advice from a sibling.

I gotta say, I've never thought of making Big Mac such a... well... penis lemme say XD

very good story in genral although i was not expecting big mac to be such an ass
:pinkiesick: it makes me sick the way he treated :fluttercry: i an going to kill him now

but still awesome story

Now I see why the likes and dislikes are balanced.
Luna is too direct, and she says divine WAY too often. That's not a word she'd use regularly, nor does it match her relaxed, old English speech pattern.
Also, Rarity brought up relationships pretty abruptly. Almost insultingly so. Her manners would have had her discuss much more mundane things, like weather, politics, or even fashion, before ever bringing up dating. There's so much more to "proper" discussion that you just throw out the window, even though these are two of the most refined ponies in Equestria.
Plus, Luna's internal dialogue gave away too much. Instead of having her outright think of Pinkie, you should've put "that other mare." This creates suspense, as well as curiosity over who the other mare could be, instead of killing the surprise instantly.
Lastly, however dramatic Rarity may be, I doubt she'd go running through the streets bawling her eyes out. She'd keep a perfectly composed face as she walked back to the Boutique, where she'd then go to her room, lock her door, and give her pillow a few new mascara stains.

Just a little advice that might lower the amount of dislikes.

the fuck is going on?
just a few chapters ago fluttershy admitted her feelings for rarity but now shes been dating pinkie?
the fuck?
i thought this was a rarshy ship?
not a pinkshy ship.

This story still has a long way to go.

I fixed the divine and other mare issues. Also, if you read just before the relationships part, it says: About an hour later, they’re sitting in Rarity’s lounge drinking tea and talking like best friends about their lives.
They had already been talking for an hour.

All I was saying was that this chapter seemed a little rushed. Don't think you have to write an entire chapter in one go. You can go back, reread it, fix errors, make it longer, add in new plot tools, etc, etc.
Take the time to make the story truly worth reading. Right now it's interesting, but it lacks the mental and emotional oomph it could have if you explained things just a little better and gave us more details.
Which brings me back to Rarity and Luna's talk. It's weird they seem all buddy-buddy even though they're rarely seen together in the show. What exactly did they discuss during that hour that got Rarity comfortable enough to ask a princess about her love life? Maybe you could edit it in. Luna's reaction to the dress is a good place to start, as it provides a common ground for them to start talking.
Sorry about being so analytical, but I'm just trying to help make this story even better.

I dont care i dont like Big Mac anyway sorry he an undeveloped character :ajbemused:
