Silly Raven. Ponyacci's a happy clown! Everyone knows that.
That was magnificent in its ridiculousness. Thank you for it.
Fillies of the world unite!
This is super strange ... Pony Joe likes stallions, obviously.
Turn around....
Amusing and well written. But I can't really let this
It isn't the donuts, which are appropriately sweet and fluffy but far from the greatest donuts you would ever taste,
pass unchallenged. He entered his donuts in [1] a national dessert competition against such things as the Cake's Marzipan Mascarpone Meringue Madness. Those were without a doubt excellent donuts.
[1] Mmmystery on the Friendship Express, episode 24, season 2. Honestly, does anyone in fanfic watch the show any more, or has it become entirely self-referential?

Happiness is an illusion. Pain is the only truth.

Probably, but like, this is fanfiction, we can do wild and crazy things like have heterosexuality here once in a while.

It could have mainly been mainly for the way they were presented that he was entering...
Or, y'know, not. Mea culpa.
You two just got dumped for a nerdy girl!!!!
Five stars!
Love this story!
It's a heaaaart ache! Nothin' but a heaaaart ache. Hits you when it's too late. Hits you when you're doooooooown!
Oh GOD, he has it too.
All I do is be nice to people- say hi, be helpful, act as a genuine person with a smile; and EVERY TIME some poor girl gets a crush on me and I have to explain that I don't feel the same way 
than that.
6429382 He's also the only donut manufacturer we've seen. Ever. At all. For all we know, donuts are a recipe lost to the mists of time, and though Donut Joe doesn't make the best donuts, he does make the only donuts.
6435646 Gonna sound like a horrible person, but I wish I had your problem.
6439411 Have we ever seen anyone aside from the Apples making apple fritters?
how deep does the rabbit hole go, my friend?
6442160 Indeed.
Make sure you get this added to the Sunshine Smiles group as well.
Super fun to read! The characters were super, the story was super, the dialogue was super.
Just all around super!
To quote the commenter before me:
"All around super."
You expanded their characters and personalities perfectly, you gave insight in their past a little, you gave great insight in Donut Joe's personality and you drew the perfect comparison between the Nerdy Delegate and Twilight.
It's why you are a great author. So much in so few words.
Favourite. And EQD should feature this in an own post. Seriously.
I love your characterization of Moonlight Raven and Sunshine Smiles, and Donut Joe's response to their question was hilarious!
I regret that I can only like and favorite this story once.

No the universe is an illusion, reality is a hologram, buy gold, buy gooooooold!
Ah, siblings, divided and reunited so easily.
Love the dialogue!
Also, all these characters have proper tags now. It would be much easier to find this little gem if the story had those tags.

Hmm. More reading into, or are they right?
