This story is a sequel to Never Wish
Daniel has been dwelling in Equestria for a while now. A lot has happened during this time and he has slowly started to grow familiar with pony customs and social structure. As new responsibilities are shouldered, it becomes clear he still has much to learn about the world he now calls home, and must now ask, how far would he chase a dream? Even if that dream was not his own?

Nice start to the sequel.
Yay more!
More please!
So is Daniel going to end up adopting Scootaloo some time soon? It seems better clear that you're building up to that point.
5467368 Time will tell, not before then though.
Nice work on the sequel, enjoying it so far, no major grammatical incorrectness, always good. My crazy suggestion: A sequence involving the royal porn supply, a 55 galon barrel of lube and an alcohol fueled gun battle/car chase. Within equestria.
That is all.
-T
Nice update.
I wish you luck on finding a proofreader. Sucks that no one has gotten back to you on it.

I will try my hardest XD
No problems from me here. I look forward to seeing what happens next.
I half expected izzy to already be in the bar when they gotta here.

Izzy is about to get some love again, I haven't forgotten about her.
5508183
Izzy's gonna be shipped?! No wais!
who's it gonna be?! Lucky special somepony...
But on a serious note...
I like Daniel's progression as a character, and I hope to see it continue being good. I also expect plenty from Izzy too. Would be a waste to get her to equestria for nothing...
5508320
I have a comical one planned out for one character. As far as the humans go, it's been tough deciding who's name is going to fill that spot, very tough indeed. I'm still trying to decide for one of them.
??? who's it going to be?
5527923
Honestly, It wasn't something I was really looking to expect. I didn't really think Izzy would be shipped, and I was half expecting Daniel to. Im just wanting to see where this story goes, so I'll be excited no matter what.
Unless, of course, it become chaotic and start falling apart as a story.
I get the sneaking suspicion that Twilight is going to have a long talk with a certain dentist......
That game is finally up? May just Give it a shot,,,
Yay new chapter! (Btw)
5565129
No it was only open for a while, watch the board for it, they open them every once in a while. It is a fun game, and I got to chill and chat with a lot of cool people. I wish they could keep them open.
5565183
Ya, I noticed. Something about attacks. I had completely forgotten about seeing it before it was initially opened up. I may set something up with it later.
The backwards writing was amusing at first, now it justs causes a headache. May want to just put it in brackets or italicize it or something.
5566195
Yeah, I was kinda worried about how it would be received myself, but wanted to try it anyways, win some you lose some I guess. Thanks for the input.
So who is the other pony in the picture going to be?
5583842
I don't know about ponies, but the picture does represent something. That might be jumping to conclusions a bit too soon.
This is a awesome story keep up the good work!
5610175
I'm glad you're enjoying it thus far
5614103
Why wouldn't i be it's Awesome!
Yep, it's too bad he's not a pony to adopt scootaloo
So, I'm pretty sure I haven't gotten the conversation I'm looking for in order to figure out the answer to this...
Why don't they want him to be a pony...?
...And another question that isn't really a question...
Izzy and Big Mac! (Though the idea of stallion with human woman either worries me or causes me to be envious, not sure yet...)
5637616
That comes from a chapter in the first story, when ponies were still uneasy around him.
5638612
They want him to remain human and not hide as a pony, right?
5638619
Pretty much.
5637354
ikr? crazy man
5638660
He doesn't have a choice in the matter?
5638696
The spell wears off, it's not permanent.
5638866
Well Ya, but if he wanted to keep it permanent, or have it to where he can change any time he wants, will it be a problem in their point of views?
If so, why?
5638971
It's still early in the story, so we'll see.
Check the message I sent as well.
Not bad chapter was complety blind sided by it though. Didn't see that coming at all (at least not that soon).
... And things suddenly get complicated...
Within the story, of course.
On a different note, was there a sudden plot change or was everything prior to this an ambiguous lead to one?
And no clop?! Jk
*looks into the hole* welp, looks like he dug himself pretty deep this time...
He's screwed. In every way.
5675382
I mean, if you guys want clop lol
5674821
That was the idea, all is going according to plan
5676444
Humans tend to dig themselves into pretty deep holes sometimes. The trick is getting out of them.
5677183
This made my morning
5677564
Up to you! There's always making a side story for that stuff.
The only sound he is hearing right now is the echo of his own voice from the bottom of that deep ass hole he's dug himself into haahaa
Typo in your short description. Spelled sequel wrong.

Thanks for saying something, I never would have noticed x-x
5725111 Np, just noticed as I was scrolling by.
Aww, poor Daniel. I wonder how this is going to affect his adoption of Scoots.
Poor Daniel, the feels are to much
Here I was, pondering the question I asked several chapters back. Wondering if my asking that, as often as I do, is legitimate and necessary... While I'm still convinced the question of why certain things happen in stories, mainly when I don't feel the answer given (through the story itself) is not full enough for me, this is one of those times I should've waited patiently for a full explanation. Hope I didn't cause you to feel like you had to put it in there sooner, or at all, than planned.
I also hope they catch that fucker...
5725409
which f-er are you referring to? The one in the video? I just needed a video of a car being side swiped.( not trying to sound heartless, I hope he was caught too) :Edit: I removed the video, upon reflection it was in poor taste:
Also no, I don't mind questions, and the plot has been hammered out, I was going to post these two chapters next regardless.

Things won't be easy now. Honestly though, I wish they let you have more than 5 tags for a story. I'd add, Thunderlane, Discord and Cloudchaser to the characters.
