Sweetie Belle doesn't really understand why she decided to spend the day with the young colt. Most ponies saw him as a bit eccentric, but Sweetie sees something far more familiar and comforting in his odd-ball behavior.
Based on the Button's Adventures Pilot, produced by JanAnimations. I'd advise taking five minutes to watch it if you haven't seen it yet.
Now on Equestria Daily!
So...frickin...cute! Love your take on Buttons and Sweetie's date.

Hah, that is good to hear! In truth this story was a lot of practice for me. I have a story in mind with the CMC and Pinkie, but I am not familiar with writing them. Besides wanting to write this story, I was able to put in Pinky to get a bit of experience writing her.
EVERYPONY WINS!
Thanks for your kind review, and I am happy I nailed the 'cute' part.
-Lumino
Horray! Well done, Lumi.
3414558
Like I said earlier, I am really surprised that you read this story. It is a good surprise, though, and I am glad you liked it. You may notice something in my earlier comment that should brighten your day though. This was training for getting Pinkie and SB down, and I think you know for what. :D
Thanks again;
-Lumino
3414574I knew I'd made the right decision in following you! :)

another story 15 years later?
Very well written. I could see a LOT of one-shots stemming from this...(little snapshots of their life)
Bah. I'm just a romantic sap. Don't mind me...
Pretty well done.
3414743
Ah, but who knows if they would be together then? Or maybe just good friends? That was the point, it is just a first crush. Maybe it will go somewhere special, maybe it won't.
Regardless thanks for the review, and I am glad you enjoyed the story!
-Lumino
Soooooooooo cute.
That was so cute, my blood sugar just went through the roof.
3416616
Mission Accomplished!
-Lumino
Terrible, just....Terrible,
I dont even know how you could call this a story,
I mean i could find a better story my wiping a piece of paper on my....
Hey!!
Uh oh gotta go!
Get back here you jerk!!!
Ahhh!
Yeah You had better run!!
*The real Soft Shell walks in*
Eherm, sorry about that,
My evil twin, Sour Shell,
Sometimes pretends to be me and gives mean reviews.
Anyways I loved the story,
Even if i did have to go to the hospital for adorableness overdose.
In my opinion it was definantly worth the trip,
I hope you write more about this wonderfull relationship.
3417054
Speaking of 'trips' what the hell are you on and where can I find some? Cause god damn!
Well, it was at the very least an interesting review, and gave me a good chuckle. Glad you enjoyed the story! Button Mash may appear in another story I am working on, but he will probably be a supporting role there. Still, one never knows where my crazy mind will go.

I made you laugh?
Awesome ima add you to the list,

Welp, im a Glass is half full, kinda changeling anyways....
Mmmmmm.....
I loved it! Great story!

Well thanks a lot! I am glad you enjoyed it, and it means a lot to hear that your work is appreciated. Even more so to hear your work brought a smile to someones face!
-Lumino
you know I don't think I have ever had a crush like this cause I had no friends when I was that young but its good to see that people still know of this stuff its always so cute!!!!!
3422546
I think the reason I can write about it is because I was on the outside looking in as a kid too. You can really break down a situation when you aren't in the center of it. Things are complicated when they concern us. When they concern other people, however, insight comes much easier.
Anyway, I am glad you enjoyed the story! Thanks for the comment.
-Lumino
Thank you for the story. It has some warm and innocent feeling to it
I'm intrigued. And when I hear eccentric I think of a scene from that one movie
3431014
And now for something completely different.
I hope you enjoy the story!
-Lumino
3431020 I can only enjoy it if I read it. So let's get started
Alright, final thoughts, I like it. Sweetie seemed like kind of a jerk off in this, but I think it makes a bit more sense. (But just barley) So all in all, it was good
3431097
Well, she is a kid. From what she sees, he is acting quite rude. He talks her ear off, basically humiliates her inside the shop from his 'over reaction', and then plays a back seat driver. I don't think it is unreasonable to be a little testy after someone does all that.
Which is part of the fun of childhood crushes, because little boys do exactly that! Anyway, thanks for the read and the comment!
-Lumino
3431116 Exactly! I was mad at first, but I realized that that's what childhood crushes are like. We don't know what we're doing!
Good show old bean,
Nice interactions, nice pinkie, approved.
4/5
Button reminds me of me at his age. Talkitive (extremely), absorbed in video games (constantly) and basically just plain stupid. So this story sort of brings back a lot of good memories. Thank you for that experience.
I love the Button's Adventure's Pilot and Button's adorable personality. And this is......
THE CUTEST POSSIBLE FANFIC.....
(Of Button's and Sweetie's date that is )
Keep up the good work.
Oh, you definitely did a good job and I definitely enjoyed it. The characters are very realistic, and the jokes are well-done.
"Rainbow-ing hero", derp.
... Well... the Pinkie Sense being used to introduce Sweetie to Button Mash is a little Deus Ex Machina, buuuut... all in all, solid, cute story.
Well crap, I fell behind on this story!
3574038, 3582741, 3513209 Glad to hear it! Always nice to know that someone likes your work.
3562949 Ah to be young and stupid again, eh? I like to think that all of us had those dreams of being some fantasy hero. Some of us just let that dream take hold a bit stronger than others.
3590792 This part confuses me a little bit. I mean, they live in the same town. If I had just made Sweetie Belle walk by him when his train burst into flames, nobody would have thought anything of it. Never the less, I am really glad you enjoyed the story anyway.
Thank you, all of you, for the lovely reviews;
-Luminio
3591952
Well, why not have her just walk by or something? Pinkie Pie's pinkie sense can easily feel contrived...
3591958
Oh if you don't like it, that is fine. I was just confused by you calling it a Deus Ex Machina, since it could have easily been done without it. DEM is used for justifying something that makes no sense (the meeting) with a contrived plot device. The meeting makes total sense, that was just the way I chose to scene transition.
-Lumino
3591981
I suppose I did use the term incorrectly... sorry.
So fucking forced.
3601828
I'm sorry you feel that way. Could you be a bit more specific with your complaints? I am always trying to improve, after all.
-Lumino
Thank goodness for playing Button Mash different to the self-insert gamers every other fic plays him as! Interplay was cute and stayed interesting enough to be engaging. Good one, author.
3604761
There is no way to say this without sounding conceited, but I am gonna say it anyway.
The main inspiration for writing this story was a total lack of well written Button Mash stories on the site. I mean, there was plenty of pointless clop (especially about his mom), but I couldn't find a single ButtonBelle story I liked.
So I made one .
Thanks for the review, and I am glad you enjoyed;
-Lumino
Now that was an enjoyable read. Pinkie was a good match maker there, Sweetie's haughtiness was adorable throughout the fic. Nice little alternate take on the universe as to how they'd meet. I like it. Felt like it could of continued, but certain opens things up for many little adventures.
That was a great way to incorporate the Button's Adventures pilot into a cute story. Yeah the story ending in them falling love just isn't realistic. Both are way too young. I really liked this. Well done!
This is a really cute story. It's good that sweetie realized what he was doing too- so many girls just seem to forget that guys have their own ways of trying to get a girl's attention. Anyways, It'd be neat if you did another one of them playing minecraft (don't mine at night) from sweetie's perspective. That would be cool.
3607312
I'm glad! I'm not too used to writing Sweetie or Pinkie, so I had to play a lot by ear. Happy to hear it came out right. :D
3617592
I'm glad you liked it. I'm a sucker for a good romance, but sometimes the silly and light stories are even better. Especially given this pairing.
3617972
Sorry to disappoint, but that is not likely to happen. The existence of computers like that in Equestria just shatters my suspension of disbelief. Arcade machines, and even the 'Joy Boy' (which I consider little more than a 'Game & Watch') are probably the best we could get away with. Maybe a console game here and there. Computers and Internet and all of that just opens up a massive can of continuity worms I'd rather not get into.
Though maybe them playing a console/arcade game I could do. I'd have to design the game, of course. None of this 'Ponies play Call of Duty' crap. I have standards.
-Lumino
3618379 Fair enough. Though technology in equestria is pretty wonky anyways.
AW! That was such a sweet story!
Uh oh. I think I'm a ButtonBelle fan now.
That was a really nice story. Normally i don't like this pairing, though.
And the addition of Pinkie was even better.
Fun story.
for a moment i was expecting the hat to come to life and say, "I MUST GO NOW, MY PLANET NEEDS ME." and fly away
