This story is a sequel to The Sour Sweet First Date
Gilda still harbors a grudge against Fluttershy for sucker punching her two months ago. When Fluttershy volunteers to help Applejack make a delivery to Crystal Prep, Gilda sees her chance to challenge her to a proper fistfight. Naturally, Fluttershy abhors violence… but Sour Sweet doesn’t.
(Contains violent action with some blood as well as strong language)
(My third featured story! - 4/24/16)
So Flutters pulled a Sailor Moon.
In light of the upcoming episode, any chance for Trixie to cameo?
Seems legit.
Now I can see Sunburst trying to make himself look as much like Che as possible.
What's this? A Sour Sweet story at almost 5 am. Isn't that just dandy.
Good to see Sour Sweet making progress, though some of those revelations could've been expressed in a better way than the narrator flat-out telling us. Still, this isn't really about Gilda... though that only makes the abuse angle feel more tacked on in its desperate attempt to add some depth and sympathy to her character.
Aside from that, a nice installment in this saga. (Also, apparently human Tree Hugger is well-connected and intelligent enough to attend Crystal Prep. Who knew?)
Yes, tell me he didn't belive she wouldn't go after Gilda after that?
Oh well, guess compared to the last two story suggesting this series was reaching it's end, this one seems to want to set up more for later.
Still, it dose seem like everything you can do, deveopent wise, with sour sweet, is coming to an end.
Also, in dioluge, just call her sour or sweet wen you can. We don't call rainbow Rainbow Dash all the time.
It's a structure narrative thing.
Yuuuuussss! Let's take this up the features! Sour Sweet's getting better, but that means the story is coming to an end? No, please not yet. The situation with her getting better and the story might be ending is SOUR SWEET!
'You' are an idiot,
And it's Soursweet FTW, Soursweet is AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME

I would have put it in through dialogue, however I felt the situation after the fight where Sour Sweet and Gilda were filled with shame over what happened and staring at each others' injuries would be so awkward that they wouldn't be in the mood to talk much other than an short apology.
I think you're missing the overall point of misplacing anger which I attempted to make. They were both taking their frustrations out on each other for similar reasons. They weren't so different as they thought they were. It wasn't about a "desperate attempt" to add anything apart from the very idea of the story.
I've been trying to come up with good plot reasons for Sour Sweet to hang around more Wondercolts, so we'll see.

Ah. Sorry for the presumption.

He's been pretty naïve throughout the entire series.
I'm simply making these up as I go along.
She does indeed get called just "Sour" often. Besides, I prefer to write the full "Sour Sweet" a lot. It's a very meaningful name. We all have our yins and yangs, our sweetness and our sourness.
Violent but sweet nevertheless. Wonder what will happen next?
That's something that I'd hoped to see in the show after the Rainbow Power reveal but haven't - the Mane Six getting special powers specific to their Element. As an example, we see in this story, Fluttershy gaining the ability to make everyone feel kindly disposed to each other by releasing the Yellow Light of Kindness for a few moments. You get a favourite for being the first author that I've seen do that!
Is Sour Sweet healing a little or is it just that she's had more to focus her mind and help her keep it together of late?

There is no cure for schizophrenia, however with proper social support, medication, and therapy it's possible to get to a state where the symptoms are pretty much muted. You wouldn't even be able to tell that the person had ever been diagnosed with a mental condition of any kind in their lives.
Yes!!! My Sour Sweet fix! Still not enough need more Sour Sweet X second person!!! How could you say no to these faces! It must continue!!!
Huh, I binge-read this entire, like, 9-story long series that hasn't even hit a conclusion. Good for me.
Sorry, but I personally found the resolution to be a little anticlimactic. Good story otherwise.
My usual reaction to a good Monday morning. I am not a morning person. Or a Monday person. Seriously, if it's Monday morning, and you're peppy, I want to hurt you x.x
Great Wickering Stallions, Fluttershy just went KiNuclear (Kindness-Nuclear)
Also, that would be an amazing thing to draw, dang...
What's scary is that Fluttershy did not put kindness into their hearts. She forced them to realize that they had cast kindness aside. Can you imagine if Flutters went darkside? She could leech all the kindness from the world... Yikes.
This is yet another brilliant story! I cannot believe how you can keep doing this! ^-^ There's a reason you continue to stay on my Best Authors list ^-^
I bet when second person saw the selfie he just went mental.
>inb4 a scene of Second Person rushing with first aid kits to flutters house

I'm not a fan of that development, but it's not a deal breaker for me.
I have a suggestion; you should write a story where Cinch finds a "suitable" replacement but all of her students object because they consider Sweet Apple Acres' apples to be superior.
So... Is there gonna be another one?
7158942 Yeah. As long as I can keep coming up with ideas, it's a continuing series.
WORLDSTAR!!!!
7159258 Sour!
Heh, win.
RIP me, or whatever the real guys name is haha. Gosh, I really want to see/read about the sheer amount of panic going through him when he sees that picture. If my girlfriend sent me a picture like that I'd freak out hardcore XD .
Though to be honest, he's probably like... yep, I saw this one coming *facepalm*. I mean the signs were very clear, only someone who was really naive would have missed that.
Omg that last line was the best. Another great story! You are so great at writing these!
Poor second person. He will be missed.
Until the next story, that is!
A chapter of Sour Sweet when she doesn't go ballistic puts me on edge for some reason. Like the eye of a storm.
"A text? I wonder what she wants t- OH MY GOD! THE DUCK LIPS JUST MAKE IT WORSE!" Please don't let it end without Second's reaction to the text!
Hey, any notes on how soon the next one will be out? no pressure, simply curious (And i want to stay on top of it so that my Best Authors page stays updated )

You just made my whole bucking night
XD so funny thats something id do....but i would have done more damage. (if i get mad i usually fight someone untill they r down for at least 18 min. if they keep getting up i keep hitting and kicking)
"Hey, Madame Cinch? I found this weird invisible mechanical device on my hand this morning. It appears to work by crank, and I just don't understa- Oh! That's what it is! I-I'm so sorry!"

Good thing I wasn't there!... Or that this doesn't have an exact representation of me. If this was me, then Gilda would never seen Sour Sweet with Fluttershy. And Fluttershy would look kind huge since four hours ago. And then it would turn out to be me, but dressed as Fluttershy to throw her off. Why? Because if anyone dares constantly mock one of my friends, they have an involuntary "talk" with me... That means that I almost knock their jaws off and have them apologize. If they don't apologize... In Gilda's case, I try to break her so she reveals what her life problems are. If she's just a scumbag, then I hospitalize her, bring her to the hospital, take video of the mental ward, then show her the videos of what she'll turn my love into. If she mocks Sour Sweet again, I stop the flow of pain meds so she knows what to expect out of every next time that she mocks my Sour Sweetness... Pain. Administered by me.
My gal's got a condition that I'm trying my damnedest to help her through, and you be an anchor on her progress?... Then you face how defensive of my gal I can be.
Geez man how many sequels for this do you have?
7262329 There's 12 in the series so far with more on the way
7262371 That.......is a lot of sequels. Probably the most I've ever seen.
Flutters should go on a trip to each continent of the world. World peace would be achieved in about a week (whether they liked it or not).
Dat ending tho
Ok where did i put that tome that holds an army of murder sex daemons
7492056 I got it! Allow me: *ahem* Korath menou, dlex vahrnas zu'in, Sorathol voss trelok! Zehna rool, Zehna rool, Zehna rool! Gloranathos Na'ar!
