Looks like:

My gig helping out at Equestria Daily is gonna take some actual time and effort. I mean, who knew??

So I'll be looking to update the story here every 14 days instead of every 10. Chapter 4, "Strange," should show up, then, on or about Jan. 22!

3756182 Cool story bro, really I'm proud :D

This is the best chapter so far. I love the way this chapter starts and I can't recall the last time I felt a strong emotional impact at the start of a chapter in the middle of a story. The build up really paid off. And Pinkie Pie is utterly awesome.

The sex scene... I think I mentioned before how I thought your sex scenes needed more hard visuals, but after reading this chapter I feel I need to take back what I said. There is so much emotion in these sex scenes that it would be a distraction to tell or show the action with a solid visual, such as describing Fluttershy's erection as thick, veiny, etc etc. It's honestly really impressive because the sex scenes are powerful, much like the difference between erotic and pornographic. So far, you're the only author I've read who pulls sex scenes like that off successfully, and it makes me a little jealous.

14 days is too long, but I can't wait to read what happens next.

I'm glad the sex scenes:

Are working the way I'm writing them. 'Cause I tried putting more physical details in the way folks like Applejinx and Steel Resolve do--and discovered that I couldn't even get one complete sentence done.

It's such an obscure reference:

I'm almost ashamed I let myself make it. See, Robert Benchley is one of my all-time favorite writers, and in one of his essays titled "Do You Make These Mistakes," he writes:

How many times, for instance, have you wanted to use the word 'eleemosynary' and haven't been able to do so without laughing? So you have used 'whom' instead, thinking that it means the same thing. Well, it don't -- doesn't.

And since the word actually means something that's given out as charity, it just fit in context.

At least, in my brain it fit in context...

A ruffle of Rainbow's wings. "Well, you gotta admit: it's kind of a lot to take in."

Pinkie gave an unmistakable giggle. "Though I'll bet it's not too much for Applejack to take in!"

Wow! That sure made this chapter adult fast! Didn't think Pinkie had it in her.

"bring it to heal" is a lovely turn of phrase, but I suspect it was meant to be "bring it to heel".
