When bad news befalls a small, struggling family, all chances for new experiences and happy moments seem to just fly away. To a boy who is just starting to grow up and find out who he is, how do you tell him that he will never reach adulthood? Every lesson you could teach him would just be wasted since he wouldn't be around much longer, right?
Fortunately for them, a scientific breakthrough creates an opportunity for him to finally meet some of the heroes he came to know and love. As the time dwindles and his condition worsens, his new friends have one last chance to show him that no matter how much time you have left, every single friendship matters.
Finding the will to go on just takes a little magic.exe

Alrigth, why not?
Let us give it a shot, shall we?
An interesting start.
I'm guessing the idea is that Pan cake is a boy in some sort of Virtual Reality that a human family has bought for their dying son as a final wish.
A minor case of Lavender Alicorn Syndrome here, but that's fairly minor. So far I like what I see, and I'm very curious about the wings...
I sure this'll be a great story! Though I have a feeling considering the premise it'll be a tearjerker. Anyway, can't wait to see more!
Alright Carrier of Heartbrake, time to live up to your name, possibly even literally.
I need to clean my glasses, they are wet for whatever reason.

But I didn't even get to the sad stuff yet.
7075206 I know, I can just see it happen before my eyes though. Especially if what I believe is true, than its all fake, an artificial sense of friendship and love for one who has little of it left.
7075206 I'm also relating it alot to a story I read previously.
I feel terrible for Dash and I know that I'm going to feel worse when you turn up the actual sadness.
Please...my emotions are delicate...I can't even watch Marley & Me without crying!

Oh god, I know the feels. >_< Tell me my friend- how bad does it get in the first chapter alone? I have this story slated to read- but I'm not sure if I should wait to read it all in one go, or just read it as it gets updated.
7075534
I recommend just waiting a bit. The first chapter isn't sad.
7075541
Oh! Alright then. Thank you. XD And sorry- this seems like an extremely tempting story to read, but I shall be as patient as necessary. Looks good though! Based on the Info for it.
Anotha One!
This is a very interesting story so far, I like the idea of a dieing boy having the chance of his life to meet his idols in front of his eye. I wander what will Scootaloo do to find out her answers about the colt. I have notice that like Blank this has a prolonged death theme to it or long therm hospitalization, is there any link to your own life experience to it?
Please tell us your not the dieing boy here author.
First off id like to say, very well written. You have quite the talent for writing. now though with that said with feels being the ultimate of evils
this chapter is lex luthor going through villain training
A dying Child, meeting his heros Before he pass away......if that don't open the o'l tear Canals NOTHING will.
Did anyone else catch that at the ending?
Oh so very interesting!
I suppose that miss Laura choose to impersonate Lyra as a joke to the fandom.
I don't know if I'd like that, it's like that Twilight episode where the guy goes to heaven, but it turns out he's in hell. I'd prefer the realism of conflict. Also, I can tell this story is going to be REALLY good. Like better than Blank.
I had my suspicions about something earlier, but this further strengthens my theory.
This story is about a terminally ill male who is brought to equestria, which one side is a well-known, broadcasted series. A certain, mint-green unicorn is involved as a higher-up in regards to the fictional world that the main character travels to/from.
My theory is that this story -at the very least- is an alternate spacetime universe of the "blankverse" as viewed from the other side of the 4th-wall spectrum.
A less likely theory is that this story is a veritable "prequel" to blank in which most likely ends with "pan cake" being affected with some form of amnesia which may end up turning the "blankverse" into some paradoxical, inception-esque anomaly.
great chapter again
Why putting in robot things?..... if this thing keeps up being, then I won't like this.

Hate to burst your bubble, but I'm pretty sure that's the entire premise of the story. They're in a ponified matrix.
7105606
I watched the matrix only once. That's a first watch thing...
And so will be this story if this is the way it'll be
Again instead of a real story about these kinda topic wasted. Have fun.
hmmmmm quite an interesting plot so for. You really are quite good at this mr author
Oh my, such a interesting chapter! Keep it up, and so glad this got updated!
7102449 I caught it also as well as a more hidden Exe
hmmm CelestAi.exe has stopped working. or is it Blank or both
COMPUTER STUFFS!
Hmmm. Here is my theroy. They are in some kind of computer program, where all the charactors are A.I's programed with their own personalitys.
Would this perhaps be inspired by To The Moon?
7166995
Somewhat.
Interesting. Suppose I'll check out another of your stories, while I wait for more.
Of course, the obvious reason is that any stallion would turn tail and run from marriage when it is possible they could have foals like the CMC.
Love this story whants more
I think I feel sorry for Scoot's program the most. The only self-aware pony, meaning if she discovers what she is it could break the poor AI. This whole program seems really unethical, even if it's to make a child happy.
This is really good, so I hope you continue it!
I really liked this story. Sad that it hasn't been updated. Are you planning to continue it?
7814964
At some point, probably when I'm not so busy. I have the story planned out in my head.
7815575 Whew, that's a relief! There's stories sometimes that are marked incomplete and are never finished - I've experienced lots of them. I can't wait until the next chapter but until then, I have a lot of things to read on my Read It Later list
will there be a next chapter?
I like the stallion very much
The short description made me think of this.
Reminds me of that short game "to the moon"
"We can make your dreams come true
to change one thing, fulfill one wish
You know what you'll wish for don't you?
But just remember.....
...it'll be the last thing you'll ever do."
