Manes


Coffe a day, keeps the world around me grey.

T

During a casual conversation with his brother, Rumble was challenged by Thunderlane to say 'yes' to any and every question thrown at him. If Rumble won, he would get the game he always wanted. Rumble agreed, but this agreement backfires when Scootaloo, who he had been friends with for sometime, asks him out on a date.

This cannot end well.

this was an amazing premise

BAAHHAHAHAH 11/10!

There's only one word:
YES!
Great, I loved it!

i can imagine the ending :twilightsheepish:

A perfect story! I hope there's a sequel! Ending was cute.:pinkiesad2:

This was interesting, the comedic aspect was pretty good, if a little over the top.
Lel, Daisy.
It flowed nicely most of the way through, but in the second half the editing kinda failed, I saw quite a few mistakes.

Overall, I'll give you a 6.5/10: the story was cute, a little funny, a solid start but a liquid finish and seemed to end rather abruptly. I personally would have liked Rumble to keep up the charade. You could have had Rumbloo get closer over time, but him eventually getting called out by Scoots and having to admit that he never would have accepted otherwise.

The conflict felt really forced, but it was humorous anyway. Nice fic, an upvote for the idea but no fav for the execution.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Grand Theft Royal

I'd play that game

Finally Rumble broke the silence with a sigh.

“Is something wrong?” Scootaloo asked. “Am I doing something wrong? Cause I can stop whatever I’m doing—” She was silenced by a  Rumble’s muzzle pressed against hers. After a couple of seconds,  Rumble broke the kiss and they both stared blankly at each other.

Well that escalated very quickly.:rainbowderp:

Eh I tried, but I guess not hard enough.:ajsmug:

4084355 It's a start. You'll get better after writing more stories.

What a cool story! It had me chuckling from beginning to end. I especially liked the hat tip to Button Mash, coming upon Thunderlane and his girlfriend, and of course the budding relationship with Scootaloo! :rainbowlaugh:

Major thumbs up!

And this story is in the featured section. Congrats!:yay:

For me, a story flops when I can no longer maintain suspension of disbelief.

So, with this story, I lasted about to the point where Rumble committed robbery. I appreciate a good random fic, but this wasn't a random fic. It was like you were trying to keep Rumble in character, but you gave up on it for the sake of a very odd gag. Even though the ponified titles of IRL games irks me, I can overlook it and move on with the story. By the time I hit the robbing scene, however, I could no longer maintain any belief in your depiction of the character.

From the view of the comments, it seems like the delivery only got weaker after that point. A word of advice to a fellow author, characterization is the most important thing in a story. If the characters do not act in a believable fashion, then your readers are rightly going to feel disconnected with them.

Keep on writing, keep on improving.

Good story. Laughed at where he questions his friends.:pinkiehappy:
Overall this was a good story, hope to see more.



Also random mustache:moustache:

Button nodded. “Celestia can even swim now.”

Cute as fuck my friend. Cute as fuck :rainbowkiss:

They make a very cute couple.

These mixed feelings we have for each other...is weird and really confusing. Agree?”

Scootaloo becomes a Chinese exchange student struggling with English.
Looks like your proofread fall asleep towards the end.

Honestly, this is probably one of my favorite stories on Fimfic so far! The three s's; Short, sweet, and simple; just how i like it! Really good! Except that one part was kind of..... weird.... But overall it was written well (even though there were a few typos here and there) and i really enjoyed It! :rainbowlaugh:!

Thank you for pointing the errors and giving out advice. Hopefully my editor will fix them soon. I will try my best to improve my writing in future works.

4084865

Better yet, try to correct your errors by yourself. It'll help you improve quite a bit.

4084923
That's a good idea. Hopefully I can spot them.

I feel like this was made for shits and giggles, cause it was so goddamn funny like he was in gta for real and then he kissed scoots that threw me in a loop but good story any way man keep it up

4085100

shits and giggles

That's what I was going for!:rainbowlaugh:

4085103 Congrats on the feature!:pinkiehappy:

I turned off mature stories, and it's in the non mature feature box... that counts! lol

4085103 knew it cool story bro hope to see more like this on Fimfic never really see ones that remind me of a movie I have seen, it reminds me of the yes man movie it was funny as hell

“Nope. Still the same old Rumble.”

He shoulda said yes

Damn it I want this to continue, make it happen, Pwease? :pinkiesad2:

YES! YES! YES! YES...>9000!!!!

(Alright, I think I'm done spamming your story now)~Leonzilla:twilightblush:

Where are you insane cutie mark obsession friends?

*your

to see if whatever we’re dared to do might get us. Our cutie marks

*us our

after we done the dare.

*... wut? "after we did the dare," or "after we've done the dare," I guess? I dunno.

as if it were gold .

*extraneous space before the period

The thing he robbed a market for, a thing he said yes to a date for. Is finally in his grasped

*grasp; also, starting the sentence with "Is" feels weird. Why not "It was"?

Thunderlane opened the door and there she.

*she was.

“Tell me about it.” he rubbed the back of neck

*He; of his neck

She was silenced by a Rumble’s muzzle

*there are two spaces after the "a". Also, there's only one Rumble, and he only has one muzzle.

with me?”he asked, turning back to Scootaloo.

the whole entire time—”It was her turn

*they both need a space

There are places where there are two spaces in-between words, like "He tackled his brother", "the last my brother had over", "for now they’ll enjoy their time together", "They didn’t know how they truly feel" and "After a couple of seconds, Rumble broke the kiss". It seems to happen sometimes after commas.

Fun one-shot. I wouldn't have included that last paragraph, though. Kinda breaks the flow, and isn't really necessary.

Now an actually constructive comment.:twilightblush:

Button Mash grasped Rumble’s chest and shook him as he shouted, “games are the best thing that could ever happen in a colt’s entire life!”

Sure, until they reach puberty.:trollestia:

Rumble hovered in the air for a short period of time and delivered the hoof bump. “Yeah! You know what? I’m starting to like you! Unlike the last my brother had over, she was weird. She’s all yelling ‘I’m coming! I’m coming!’ I mean, what’s up with that? She was already here!”

:facehoof:Why you? ...

“And save us all with your mighty yes powers!”

YES!
~The power of yes compels you~!

Rumble sighed, and flopped onto the couch in the living room. I got a date. That wandered in his mind the entire time he traveled home. I should have never said yes, but then. No game. He closed his eye and tried to imagine him playing the game. But all he thought about was Scootaloo. What’s happening to me?

Puberty.:moustache:

“That’s for kissing me without asking me first!” Scootaloo touched her lips with a hoof. “But that felt weird….in a good way I mean.”

hmmmm... Author are you aware that asking for a first kiss is usually considered an extremely offensive gesture? :duck:

My verdict, it was a funny story, :moustache::moustache::raritystarry:/:moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache:

~Leonzilla

She’s on to me! I need to get a shovel and pick a location to hide the body….But where?

:rainbowderp: This colt has some real issues

Aaaaw dat ending was just so cute :rainbowkiss:

I'll give it an upvote. I was going to list the reasons why I didn't give it a favorite, but after looking through the comments, it looks like I don't have to. Overall, not bad, but not great either. It was decent.

Seriously though, watch those edits.

That was pretty good. The only thing for me that kinda stood out as beyond strange was the market scene. I mean really 4 hours? Holy... :rainbowderp:

Other than that, it was a likable and I enjoyed reading this. :twilightsmile:

This NEEDS a sequeal

4085849
Don't worry my friend. It will get one:twilightsmile:

4085856
Aww thank you!:rainbowkiss:

:pinkiehappy: Awesome story! It's very awesome, and begs to be continued! And if you don't, I think I might!

And this part, "She won’t drown just because she’s white like the old one did?” made me laugh so hard. Let me give a description.

Before: This story seems interesting already.

After: OMG LOLOLOLOLOL ROFLROFL I CAN'T BREEEEEEEEATH!

4086139
It'll get a sequel my friend:twilightsmile:
