:facehoof: Fine. Fine. I've uploaded a sexually explicit version as a second chapter. Yeesh, the things I do for you people. I still think it's funnier in the original non-sex version.

:twilightoops: This had not occurred to me...

but I'm not changing it now that it has. :rainbowlaugh:

It was more funny in the first chapter, and it was more sexual in this one. So both chapters are worth it.

And I clicked the link in the previous chapter, and I honest to hell could not find that picture. Browsed through the entire thing. Thank you.

Happy to have been of service.

And thank you for writing this story; it's been great fun.

Thank you, but I still did enjoy the other version.

Also, I doubt you would have gotten complaints about 'raping virgin young minds'
Some teen stories on this site are as bad as the 'light clop'

Don't be sad, you did a very good job with this story, sex and no sex. :pinkiehappy:

what I thought about the sex scene with Zecora: "Ooh, aah, get down/ Ooh, aah, JUNGLE BOOGIE"

I will readily admit that I preferred the version without the clop as far as the story itself goes, but compared to a lot of clop, this was very well-written and a delightful deviance from the usual "...and sex happens" format.

As a friend of mine pointed out to me: This story highlights once more how unfair the distribution of powers amongst the three pony tribes actually is.

Pegasus? Hide in the clouds. The females are grounded for the duration of their season, so they can't follow.

Unicorn? Use your magic to hold lone females at bay, entangle them using your surroundings, or put them out of comission any other way. Their own magic is hampered, and if your own talents lie with defensive magic (like Shining Armor, though I'd be surprised if anypony comes even remotely close to his ability), so much the better.

Earth Pony? Run for the hills. Literally. And in contrast to the other two tribes, Earth Pony girls will be just as fast as you, perhaps even more so.

And THAT is why there are so many more earth ponies than pegasus and unicorn ponies, except in racial enclaves where the percentage of unicorns or pegasi in the total population is relatively high! :pinkiehappy:

So yes, it's bad for the INDIVIDUAL males, but frigging great for the perpetuation of their race... oh god did I just use a porn story to explain the race distribution in Ponyville? :raritycry:

Aye, that you did. And it worked like a charm! Also explains why they (Earth Ponies) keep founding new villages.

Well, Braeburn was kind of lucky. Imagine trying to run from Rainbow Dash- even groundbound that should be a challenge. Or Twilight, who can teleport while going half-crazed from worry over a letter. And teleport other people back towards herself.

The all-male royal guard are probably chosen by the Princess' advisors for precisely such an occasion as this... Or spend the season huddling inside Shining Armor's protective bubble spell.

Really, thinking about the ramifications on pony society is great fun!

I would applaud your reading ability. You certainly pay attention to details. Except for details such as the big, bolded note on the front page of the story:
Note-- FURRIES! OH GOD. I anthro'ed the characters in this, because:
1. I based this story off an anthro pic, and
2. You can't tear clothes off someone who isn't wearing any! Yes, this is that kind of story. Didn't you read the bit where it's "content rating mature / sex?"

And the title pic, which is pretty obviously anthro.

But other than that, great job with the reading comprehension! :pinkiecrazy:

Well, I guess this was decent.

Honestly, it wasn't very funny. At all. For the sake of the story actually being possible, I can ignore that they would even go into heat at all (though considering how advanced they are it makes no sense and is still an enormous plot device/plot hole), I can even ignore the rape near the start being played for laughs (barely).

What I won't ignore, and what pretty much kills any kind of enjoyment I would have gotten out of this is the part were AJ used him like that. It wasn't funny at all, it was so completely OOC that it was just pure character assassination, and the "Oh I was being honest" excuse is not only completely stupid, it's also something she wouldn't say because she would know how stupid that is. I mean, this would have been much better if that part had never even happened.

Whatever. I liked parts of this, but I just didn't see any humor in it. :applejackunsure:

You may want to add the Anthro tag.

Anthro tag didn't exist when I upload it and I warn readers about it in the story description, so I can't be bothered.

If this is a violation of the current rule / terms of service to warn without using the tags, I encourage you to report me.

:applejackunsure:

Could someone explain me what this season is?

3917812 all the mares (female ponies) go into heat (meaning they want sex)

-_-...

I know that, but why the FEMALES only?

"Don't 'tehee' me..."
(Quote from Twilight Sparkle in "MSA 2: Rainbowround")

wow braeburn isn't one of my favorite's but Ive got to say this, BRAEBURN YOU LUCKY BASTARD:flutterrage:

4455120 horses actually do go through heat the same for dogs, it's only bitches/mares but a male dog/ horse can smell it.

Oh man, why did I put off reading this for so long

As this story is Anthro, it should use the Anthro tag.

Will be giving this a look see later, though.

Should also have a romance tag as well.

Needs the Human or Anthro tags, given how often "hands" came up in this fic.

Take a look at these hands
Take a look at these hands
Hands of a handless species of animals
Well it’s not tagged, tagged for an antro story

this story was published before the anthro tag existed on this site, that wasn't added until 2014
