639845 I changed up some of the formatting so this should help with the problem (the emphasis has been changed to italics which should still stand out, but not be as jarring)
Also, more chapters are coming as I get them formatted to FimFiction's style, and the author is still writing new material.
in this story you make it sound that the stallions there are (except for theyre size) are the most worst and horrible sex partners for the Mares, and that they all would have so much more fun with a Human
Too be honest I dislike the idea of more than 2 people in a relationship and to be honest again it kinda put me off the story (I'm still gonna read for sure) What can I say I'm a one person kinda guy
648365 Most people are, however, you must keep in mind that one of the main purposes of this story is to show how our two societies differ, and how we might interact because of those differences. Monogamy among humans is mainly a cultural, and generally religious, issue. We've had cultures that are strictly monogamous, strictly polygamous, and some cultures that never cared. So, when the issue is brought up among a race where rather than being a social issue, it's a biological one (with the high disparity among the genders monogamy could not work on a biological scale, the species would die out) Lero, who is no longer in his own society, allows RD to make the decision for him. He doesn't have strong ties to the issue, and would instead want Dash to be as comfortable as possible.
I'm glad that you're enjoying the story, just keep in mind that this isn't trying to say that any way of life is better than another, it's just exploring societal differences and the interactions they cause.
The way this is written, "clop" doesn't do it justice, I file this under "Love Story with sex scenes/erotica". Gotta say, I never thought I'd see the day when reading a love story with a Human having sex with a candy colored pony So Damn HOT! Great job not going the 13 year old virgin route with the sex scene, and actually going into detail of how Rainbow was feeling throughout the whole experience.
It's surprisingly hard to find good clop, even when it hits the featured box. This, on the other hoof, is excellent, so far. Gonna keep reading and see where this goes.
660863 Not sure what to think of that... and now that I'm reading this I realize how screwed over I am when it comes to developing interspecies relationships in my original story-universe... I have like 30 sapient species dangit! oh my head that's just painful to even begin thinking about the complexities of interaction!
649080 While you make a good point and I find this story too interesting to argue, I would like to point out that to my knowledge (granted it is only reinforced by hearsay), human biology is only capable of adaptation to a union between two individuals, and more than that actually results in a sizable increase in risk regarding STDs and genetic diseases, as well as weakening the immune system to leave a target vulnerable to conventional diseases. Granted, it seems logical that this could be negated with a robust enough immune system and diet to support it, but it just seems to me that if cultures have maintained something like that for thousands of years (which is an incredible feat) then there must be at least SOME grain of truth behind the logic. Anyway, to the next chapter!
So... basically... in this particular fanverse, the overbalance of females means that there is a cultural preference for polygamy? Specifically, where one male takes on several females? And not only is this acceptable, but it's considered rude for a mare to not "share" her stallion? And it's the females who express interest, rather then the other way around?
Pardon me while my head cannon updates to 2.0 ... ... ... Update complete.
i love the balance in this between romance, intimacy, story, intelligence, and actual clop material, any of which could be tailored into their own story just by the virtue of their quality.
its a CLOP a ficken CLOP how can it get to this level as awesomeness? YOU NEVER EVER see this great of a ratio of likes vs dislikes in clops you know what this means? you broke that charting table, this story is like that of a genius kid in a class of really dumb slow kids that one kid just brakes the grades table for the whole class. with results like this -> ....I.......... i would hate to be the teacher after grading the first test of the marking period.
You know, I was pleasantly surprised to see that this brought up some really good points about the differences between our societies. It really makes you think how awkward it is for both of them 'cause of the different social and courtship norms. ~ Timid
Well, Lero is one lucky guy! I mean, Rainbow told him that she would set him up with 2 other mares in a polygamous relationship. Say what you will about monogamy or polygamy, but he is one lucky guy! ~ Scare
I must say, I've heard a ton about this fic, but I've been very hesitant to read it, because it was a HiE, and a clop-fic no less, which I have found isn't my thing. What you (or the anonymous author) have done is swipe me up in such an immersive and detailed story line with well written romance that had me feeling... ways I cannot describe with words of both the English and Equestrian language. This is a lot better than I was expecting, well done. And I've only read the first chapter.
EDIT: I guess I got caught up in the story so much, I didn't realize it was the second chapter :P
728959 Yeah, no lie, and no joke! Nice to read a fic that, while there is clop in it, is not completely centered around it, and actually adds a story element, as well as a consideration as to possible differences between an Equine society and our own.
I agree that it is well written:) Descriptive and colourful, taking many factors into account making it believable as to say. Clear and thought-through imaging. This far I am enjoying it:)
But...
At some parts, it almost feels like text-book descriptions of your world-my world and how they are different. Thought through as i said, but at times almost a bit too plain and... well, descriptive. To the point where it loses its feeling and the emotion behind it. Almost required for the sake of the story to have it said, I agree, but still it feels like it is being said because it has to be said.
Still, don't take me wrong, I really like the read. It is a very nice story! It may be labelled a clop, but that's far from the focus-point. With all its genuine-feeling feeelings, I'd rather call it "uncensored affection":)
Really well written. My only complaint is the excessive bolding. Starts to distract after a while...

Omg, yes! I thought. The six chapters I saw before where all we were going to get!
I hope that this continues!

I never thought I would find a story involving a human banging a small cyan horse hot, but that was... damn.
Xenophilia? How unfortunate I forgot my Starfleet captain's uniform.

This is my fav clop ever. Thank you sir for uploading it here so I can read it again. And with more chapters than old picture ones
Oh damn son.... i'm so wasted now. FUAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRK *croak*

Have you by any chance seen "Somnambula"?

The first few paragraphs weren't as strong as the last chapter's, but after that it was marvelous!

nice story bro fav and 800th liked
Tea in glasses? This is absurd
This is very good in-context, respectable, well written clop.
Everytime I read clop, I find myself moving slightly in-sync with what's going on, and at he beginning and end my face ends up looking like this:

I don't normally read clop at all but you sir have earned an upvote and a fav

Best fic I've read yet!
The discussion of their different societies was more interesting than the sex.
It also made a lot of sense, and I had something similar in mind.
Of course, my OTHER theory is that the reason most of the ponies we see are female is because most of the males are drafted into the guard/army.
Well very discripted and Don't bring Shy in here
i love the balance in this between romance, intimacy, story, intelligence, and actual clop material, any of which could be tailored into their own story just by the virtue of their quality.
its a CLOP a ficken CLOP how can it get to this level as awesomeness?
YOU NEVER EVER see this great of a ratio of likes vs dislikes in clops

I like the way the perspective is tossed between Nero and Dash, it gives a sense of completeness to the situation.
In other news, I expect more of this:
Argh! I STILL can't find the right frequency for this dimension! Anyone have a map or something?
