When Big Macintosh decides to ask Fluttershy out, she initially accepts with quiet enthusiasm.

Then she remembers a promise to her best friend Rainbow Dash.

Big Macintosh is going to need Dash's permission to date Fluttershy apparently... but it isn't clear why, even to Dash herself!

I still don't get about mandatory foal, can you explain that please? other than that. this is pretty funny?

Sounds like if you are strong, fast, smart, magical, ... they want to make shore your genes get passed on. It is dash's egg that would be put in Shy. So her genes would be passed on.
If Celestia was really looking for the next princess (like Twilight) It makes sense.

I think I have read some stories where Celestia behind the scene lead ponies together to make powerful bloodlines like Twilight's.

Regarding "mandatory foal": (Warning: Major plot spoilers for anyone who hasn't read this yet!) Individuals with highly desirable genetic traits are gently encouraged by Celestia and Luna to pass them on. In the case of the Wonderbolts it is something you have to agree to (or in rare cases have already done) before you can join. But since being pregnant does not mix well with high-speed acrobatics it is a rule that Wonderbolts mares must use surrogate mothers. Who keeps the child is left for the families in question to determine before each foal is conceived. Fluttershy being Fluttershy she made a promise a long time ago to Rainbow Dash that she would take some of Dash's eggs for at least one foal.

Does anyone who has read the story have any suggestions for how I could make that more clear? It is a weird thing from a human perspective (which is sorta the point) so I can understand it requiring even a bit more explanation than I gave, but I'm not sure at the moment how to smoothly work it in.

You are quite welcome!

No ideas on how I can/if I should revise the story to make that clearer?

6981382 I got nothing on that. But that was probably me who did'nt get it. 2tail got it fine.

Upon further review I've added the comedy tag since it did end up with a lot of funny moments that weren't part of my original concept. I've also removed the "Sex" tag because it probably gives the wrong idea... or maybe not? What do people think?

Okay.

Your story would be a lot more appealing to the average person browsing FimFiction if your description didn't have a wall of text explaining your reasoning behind half of your tags. You could post that in a comment if you wish, but it's not really necessary.

Yeah, good idea. Have edited to take care of that. It involved moving the footnotes into the main text instead of being part of the authors note so I could move the author's note to the top. I want to have it BEFORE the story though, rather than in a comment so that people won't feel misled, which is the reason I included those notes in the first place.

7054327 Good choice.

I like this having Fluttershy worry over... something is ambiguous enough for a myriad of reasons for this type of story and it fits the character to a t.
My favorite part is the scootaloo fakeing homeless simply because I can easily see her doing that just to be with her 'idol'

So have a mustache my good sir or Madame
