Before Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy could head back home, the Hoofield and McColt families wanted the two to join them for a shared feast to celebrate the new bond between their families. And during that celebration, Twilight happens to find a stack of old letters in the basement of the McColt family fortress.
Letters between Grub Hoofield and Piles McColt.
Seeing that they were written before their feuds, Twilight decides to share them with the families to help unite them even closer. However, things might become awkward when the Princess begins to read them out loud.
I want to thank my buddy Zyrian for proofreading.

dude, this part is cool, but the rest is just... my mouth is hanging open
It's the episode about nothing. :)
This was your first clue! You NEVER look in the little black box

WHAT did I just read?

Huh, weird. I've been hearing that question a lot with my writing recently.
You see, we REALLY need that Men-in-Black photo-neuralizer for THESE EXACT MOMENTS.
6852701 Hahahaha, yes, yes we do.
There are no words.
......erm.....
*scratches arm uncomfortably*
LOL that is quite the family secret.
Funny, you'd think something like this would bring them closer together.
I can sympathize.
Good God this made me laugh, though. There are not enough gay shipping stories here, even if just by proxy like that. This makes the entire situation so much more amusing, and I'm saying that as someone who has been part of gay lovers' spats before. Seriously, I was laughing my ass off throughout that. Well, until the end, anyway. That just gave me mood whiplash.
Plot twist: Piles McColt was actually a mare. It was the beard that confused ponies. And the deep voice. And the fully functioning set of... Alright, he was a stallion.
They read letters.
I laugh.
Feels guilty for laughing.
Bursts out laughing again.
Nope. He knocked up your grand dam for the sake of spiting the stallion he formerly stuffed. Isn't family a hoot and a half?
That was totally awesome to read and funny as buck. I knew there was a reason that I liked to read your stories, and that right there sealed the deal. Totally worth it, lol
Well, one or both of them might have been bisexual, and there's no reason that they couldn't have grown to appreciate their wives over time...
Good and funny story:) if I might offer any suggestion it would be you did not go far enough with the crude humor (I have low sense of humor:P )
A great take on hidden history. There is no way of knowing how many real major historical events have backstory like this. But since we do know that a few do, it stands to reason that there are many 'black boxes' waiting to be uncovered. They don't teach that in Archeology 101.
Also, best end line ever.
Rereading this were you inspired by the Seinfeld episode “The Cheever Letters”?

Indeed I was, although I'm still really happy with how this story turned out. :)
