    Fluttershy is given a rather odd request from somepony she thought she'd never see again: Iron Will. The minotaur seeks her out, asking her to teach him how to be as calm as she is. But when she agrees to being his tutor, will Iron Will take the lessons a little too close to heart?

    Coming up with a new concept is half the fun. And we all know we need more Iron Will fics! :trollestia:

    Cute! Though I'd never have imagined this role reversal myself, it actually works pretty well!

    Iron Will looked up from his fingers, arching an eyebrow. “You didn’t know? Minotaur mazes have a mind of their own. They rearrange at will, closing off and opening up any passages they want. That’s why minotaurs live in them, because our gruff nature won’t take any backsass from the maze. We shout at the maze ‘til it gets how we want it, and stays that way.”

    ...brilliant :rainbowlaugh:

    Aw, that was cute. :twilightsmile: Clearly Fluttershy needs to teach the maze next.

    You know, this story is so simple, and yet I really, really enjoyed it! I could easily see this being an actual episode on the show. I love the bit where Iron Will is holding the door for people, and they keep coming. So funny! It IS an awkward situation, isn't it? And the idea of him needing his gruffness to enter the labyrinth is awesome. (Just the labyrinth being included at all is awesome.) Yay.:yay:

    This. Is. Great.

    I was SOOO skeptical of this at first.  But you did it amazingly!  Thumbs up and faved.  I dunno if comedy is a great tag for it, though.

    That was simply an amazing story! You NEED to write more IronWill Fics, you got the character spot on.

    Imo one of the funniest things was the look for a opening in his schedule....:rainbowlaugh:

    Thumbed up, very cute story.

    Loved how Fluttershy took a page out of Iron Will's book and started making catchphrases.

    That was just BRILLIANT! Both characters were captured nicely and I liked how it felt like an episode. I love fics that do that! :twilightsmile:
