Whups. Careful with that publish button, kids, she's touchy.
4593185 No worries.
GOD DAMNIT SCOOTS! (my go to reaction when she either beds, tries to bed, or talks about bedding Rainbow, and has a better option out there)
4593185 Give us more or we'll form a mob of people who want more!
4593273
It is updated, actually. Is it not showing as much?
4593302 It's updated, and it was good. Too good! Now we need some more!
4593313
You had me worried.
I so wanted to see something happen lol
4593370 No need to worry about anything. You're doing just fine. :)
4593372
You almost got your wish. This chapter went through a couple major revisions. This was the best version, though.
4593662
I'd like to think so too, but the numbers just don't bear that out.
4593710 will we get a one shot of what happened a year ago between rd and scoots
4593877
Definitely someday. I'm sort of dedicated to this at the moment, although I might take a short break now that I've (almost) eclipsed the 100k word mark. I'm also writing another fic involving Silver Spoon that I'm going to upload soonish.
Amazing story so far. Geez. I can't help but want for more! Very well done.
This story caused me to feel more emotions that many professionally published novels. It's well-written, and well thought-out. I'm quite impressed, and look forward to reading more as you write it. I wouldn't even feel bad buying it as a book once it's finished. (Seriously, it's that good, in my opinion.)
EDIT: The prequel to this nearly brought me to tears as well. Once you finish this, you should seriously consider combining them into one story.
What's this? Rainbow acting like a mature and responsible adult?!

Here is what i think why scoots cant fly
Her mother cheated with a earthpony and later that day fucked her husband getting her pergent and since the earthponies seed was still inside both sperm cells got into the egg making a winged earthpony....and when the husbend found out he left the mother and the mother killed herself

Some close, some not. Scootaloo and Silver Spoon will eventually discuss both of their childhoods, probably in the next chapter or two. I will say that's not a bad guess, though.
(Side note: There was once a story on this site where I explained Scootaloo's origin story in some detail, and although it has since been deleted, anyone who followed me back then knows her story...I would respectfully request that they not spoil it for anyone else, though. I want everyone to be as surprised--and honestly, horrified--as Silver Spoon is when she finds out.)

Re: combining the stories. I probably won't do that, for several reasons. Firstly, the prequel is nothing compared to this. It occasionally annoys me that I get roughly twice as many favorites a week on a finished story I'm not altogether pleased with than on an ongoing, updating fic I love. Aside from that, NLL is sort of the springboard for introducing people to my work. It's not mature, so everyone can see it, but its sequel is. Plus, there's some story between the two that needs writing, too, and I don't want to unintentionally imply there's nothing in the interim worth writing.
Finally, I'm not positive, but I suspect the story's sheer length might be warding people off, and adding the 25k-ish words of NLL can't possibly help that.
Still, there are many more stories in this universe to be told, so keep eyes out for them.
This is... so weird. You've found a way to portray Rainbow both as a responsible adult and a sexual conqueror. Weird that she's legitimately interested in Scoots, though. Aren't they at least fifteen years apart in age, if not more?
4595197
I'm not sure that there's all that much to be displeased about with NLL to be honest, but I do see your point. And don't let yourself think that the length is a drawback. All the length does is show the dedication and quality of the writer. As a reader I'm more likely to skip over a 1500-word piece as I know they're more often than not riddled with cliches, errors, and poor story. A work of lengths such as these two actually catches my eye for the opposite reasons.
(Oh, and I actually read NLL after I had started reading this. I liked TMUP so much I wanted to know if there was more, and I was to pleased to find out there was.)
Fast pone I was joking.
Get that love rival I guess, good luck Silver.
My last comment just became void, oh well.
Even if the relationship did end up happening, I don't think Rainbow and Scoots would be a very good pair in that way. Dash is going to be halfway through and her mind will suddenly flash back to the time period from the show and *Bang*, grown adult and child = complete and total wingboner kill.
OMGOMGOMGOMG IM SO LOOKING FOWARD TO THIS
4594538 im sorry please dont punish me!
4593273
I don't think we've ever not been a mob of people who want more.
4596179
Oh, no, I love people who take stabs at my characters' backstories and futures. Tells me they're invested and interested and curious, which is all I really hope for out of my readers. Heck, even if someone hits it dead on, I'll probably lie or ignore their comment to avoid spoiling the plot. It's more fun when people are really thinking about the story and hoping to guess what's coming next.
4595394
I usually age them about 8 years apart in human years, sometimes less. Rainbow doesn't seem particularly mature to me in the show, and Scootaloo does sometimes. Their relationship is way more 'adopted siblings' than 'surrogate mother'. It might seem strange, but that's sort of how their relationship always has been. If I ever wrote a full on RainbowLoo shipfic (and I might), it would take some effort to work, but I think I could do it.
4595889
That's a legitimate point, but from my perspective, I think Rainbow would be much more likely to think back on the more recent years than the far-flung past. The Scootaloo she's fallen in love with is not the Scootaloo who idol-worshipped her as a filly. She's much older, more mature, more grown up and most importantly, she recognizes that Rainbow Dash is just another pony, and not a supermare. That's sort of where the distinction comes from, and it's how I (at least) justify the potential.
4596189
No, you haven't And it's been great. Helps me remember why I keep doing it
4596361
I'd be interested in your interpretation. I agree that they have a very familial relationship, but you've already transcended that into "opportunistic lovers". You're a fantastic writer so it doesn't feel strange or forced, but I can't help but think that sisters, adopted or otherwise, wouldn't drift toward sex the closer they became.
4596361 so i no get punished?
4596361 Bookplayer wrote a good ScootaDash, and AcreuBall (might?) be doing the same ("Like Sisters, Sorta" is semi ambiguous)
An excellent chapter, thanks once again for letting me preread and comment on it
4599024
Please avoid causing or fueling flamewars in my comments section. I hate having to delete inflammatory comments, but I won't hesitate to. I realize the initial comment (and the subsequent response) were inflammatory themselves, but it can't go further than that.
In re: the rest of your comment, Filthy Rich is another of my favorite characters. He seems to be a genuinely nice guy who just happens to be extremely wealthy, presumably through a combination of good fortune, inheritance, and his own personal business savvy. The story of his relationship with his daughter, at least in this worldcanon, is generally uplifting. He loves his daughter very much, and she loves him equally so. He gives her everything she needs and a lot of what she wants, but she's not, strictly speaking, spoiled.
Diamond Tiara's public face is nothing like her private one, and despite his best efforts, Filthy Rich has been largely unable to curb her desire to be seen as part of the 'elite'. This bizarre infatuation has led to a lot of unfortunate personality traits that will either ruin her permanently, or that she'll have to grow out of. Only time can tell for sure.
I'm actually in the process of writing a Diamond/Spoon fic that will elucidate some of the backstory I rely on for this fic. I'll try to post a chapter in a few days to start that process.
4593313 Too much is never enough!
Am I the only one that thinks it's kinda messed up to hear Rainbow call Scootaloo her little sister then talk about that one time they fucked?
Okay, so Scootaloo and RD are bi and Spoon has at least some lesbian curiosity. We don't know much about DT, but it seems like the changes in her relationship with Spoon could be the result of her wrestling with the same sort of thoughts that Scootaloo herself has recently come to terms with. Perhaps in her view, admitting to such feelings would go against her perception of high society ideals.
Here's a random question about the MLP universe though - How do ponies, earth ponies in particular, play stringed instruments? One would generally have to have multiple digits to hold down the correct strings for chords. It seems like hooves would be insufficient for this task.
4614704 Well, apparently their hooves are articulate enough to perform fine motor skills such as writing as well, so I'd imagine something like playing an instrument (Stringed or otherwise, many have small individual keys or the like) would fall into the same category.
This is my favourite story of all time on this site, without a doubt. You're just so great... I wish you luck with it, and all your endeavours.
Really good chapter. I can't wait for the next.
So....Scoots is like a little sister to Rainbow Dash? You know, one of those little sisters you want to fuck and (presumably) get married to (at the very least pursue a relationship with)? That little sister that you messed around with in some unspecified manner at some point in the past?
Um, yeah, I really hope that this is basically the only mention of this in the fic. Because if it isn't, then I'm going to have to remove this from my favorites, which is something I almost never do.

Edit: Okay, the original comment was kind of rude, so I'm going to try again. If Rainbow and Scootaloo's relationship is a trigger for you, I'd unfavorite the story. I hate to lose a reader, but I don't want you to get invested only to be upset or disappointed later if I choose to revisit that element, or other incest-ish plot elements that may or may not exist. Incest isn't really a trigger for me, so it doesn't even occur to me to mention it, not that this even really qualifies.
4635175
I think I will continue until the point that I feel I must quit. However, I will try not to beat a dead horse, and only comment if I feel that I have something different to add. (Unless, of course, you choose to inform me through PM or whatever that I will definitely want to quit now, because [x]. If you do so, I won't spew spoilers around.)
I wouldn't call their relationship a "trigger" per se, as I would only use that word for something severe enough to induce panic attacks, I just find it rather....squickish.
Yes, this isn't "real" incest, in that they are not blood related, however as far as I am concerned, it's just as incestuous if you consider them family. If Rainbow had said that she used to think of Scootaloo as a little sister....well, honestly, the relationship is still problematic.
First of all, relationships that start with hero worship are unlikely to be particularly healthy relationships. The worshiped member of the relationship has unnatural pressure to live up to what the worshiper believes of them, and the worshiper will most likely have feelings of inferiority (which, we in fact have already seen) towards the worshiped, ones that no amount of reassurances will be able to rid them of, simply because their partner's superiority has been so ingrained into their being from worshipping their partner for so long. And this is relatively strong hero worship, enough so that Scootaloo at the very least appeared to be the president of Rainbow Dash's fanclub, if not the founder/one of the founding members.
Not to mention, their age difference. Even if you take their age separation down to 8 years (my personal headcanon is somewhere closer to 12), which would be within an acceptable range if they had met when they were both adults, it starts to get pretty creepy when one of them was a pre-pubescent kid and the other was an adult for some definition of the word (living alone and working to support herself). When that happens, it comes into question whether or not the adult was grooming the child, whether consciously or subconsciously.
And, of course, there is the age-old (well, 80 years old, at least) heuristic for this thing:
upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/17/Half-age-plus-seven-relationship-rule.svg/1000px-Half-age-plus-seven-relationship-rule.svg.png
While I would agree that this doesn't warrant a TW for outright incest, I personally think that it wouldn't be off-base to add one for "pseudo-incest" or something like that. On the other hand, I'm sure you could find a large population of people that would consider that off-base, so it is completely up to you.
On a side note, your comment isn't quite clear on whether you would TW for actual incest, and that is something that I don't consider subjective at all. You should absolutely TW for incest, if not for the story in general, then at least do it in the A/N for any chapters that contain it, and place the A/N at the beginning of the chapters.
And I apologize for my original comment as well, it was a lot ruder than necessary, and was in no way constructive (as I at least hope you will consider this comment to be).
Bloody retcons...
Please try catching them in the future mate.
Other than that, you are doing a good-great job yet. (I cannot find a word that is in between, so my apologies.)

I prefer calling the Scootaloo x Silver Spoon ship 'Chicken Soup.'
Seriously, it'd be awesome if this was one of the rare Dashie situations where she's in a Trinogamous relationship. With Scoots and Silvy. That'd be so awesome, Dashie's soulmate and love of her life being Scoots. Scoots mare crushing on Silvy and Silver Spoon mare crushing on Scoots. It'd be an awesome relationship. That and it'd be sad for Dashie to be forever alone.
4707064
And the chicken jokes return!
I personally prefer Silverloo, or ScootaSpoon, but to each their own. There'll probably be a 4Chan vote or something that decides on the 'official' name for this ship.
I want to see this now. Make this into a side story! Other authors, write this scene out! We MUST have it!

Surprised nobody commented this to play during Octavias speech at the beginning
this story continues to win over every bit of my yes. stories like these make me unable to quit reading fanfiction.
