This story is a sequel to What Happens When You're Gone?


On the way to the skate park with Scootaloo, Rainbow Dash needs to make a pit stop at the DMV to fix a discrepancy in her Driver's License. While Dash is filling out the application, Scootaloo finds out that her older sister's middle name was never actually Danger in the first place.

~~~

Inspired by the one time Dash introduced herself as "Rainbow Danger Dash." Please forgive me.

*snrks* That was QUITE the ending.

Love it.

Although you gave me even more reason (if it was even necessary) to hate Zephyr Breeze even MORE than I do Starlight Glimmer.

7652121 I will take that as a compliment! :rainbowwild: Thank you for reading!

7652125 Well, I'm glad.

And you are most welcome.:twilightsmile:

I actually like the name Rainbow Dalilah Dash.

7652155 Thanks! So do I. :rainbowwild: But with my guess, RD probably wouldn't appreciate it. :derpytongue2: Thanks for reading!

I actually have my own theory about Dash's middles name: Rainbow Barbie Dash. Don't ask why. I myself don't know. :facehoof:

7652326 Duh. Because she's a Rainbow girl, in a pony world. Not made of plastic, but she's still fantastic. :rainbowwild: Thank you for reading!

7652359 No offense, but did you really just make that joke? :facehoof:

I liked it better when her middle names Miriam.

Lol. Personally I like Jennifer as her middle name. Good job!

Cute.:twilightsmile: Especially the ending. (Scootaloo, you little twerp:scootangel:)

This was a nice short read, but if I had to nitpick, it's how many different ways you referred to Dash instead of just she (blue-skinned girl, etc.). It's a pet peeve of mine.

Other than that, I don't see anything else to "complain" about. It put a smile on my face. :pinkiesmile:

7652425 I did, and I have no shame. :rainbowlaugh:

7652428 Hmm. I guess I could see it. :twilightsmile: Thanks for reading!

7652491 Thank you very much!! Both for reading and the compliment. :pinkiehappy: (And Rainbow Jennifer Dash... I like it!)

7652524 Thank you!! Personally, word repetition is a pet peeve of my own, so eh, different opinions. :moustache: Hey, if you stick around though, I might work on it! :rainbowwild:

MJP

you do realize zephyr is the younger brother

MJP

7652121 zephyr was more on purpose though

7652326 MY head-canon middle name for her is "Aurora".

For EITHER version of her.

7653186 Interesting. I might have the reconsider my headcanon choice. But, still. Rainbow Barbie Dash for the win!

7653195 Thank you. roundstable.com/forums/images/smilies/kind-of-yall.png

And be my guest; I don't mind.

Hey, that's a cool middle name!

7652428 Now King Diamond comes to mind. :pinkiecrazy:

kul

...and for even more punchlines, dont ell us, thats Scootaloo's full name is actually Scootaloo Squirts? hahaha

This is a very good one-shot.

Rainbow's middle name should be Sheldon or Discrepancy.

Meanwhile I'm here just not seeing the point of middle names :rainbowlaugh:
Then again, people from my country (and a few surrounding ones) don't have middle names at all, except the rare few.

Still, good read!

Honestly, I don't think most ponies even have a middle name. Like sure, it could just be a traditional thing, which is why all the Pies have one. But we're actually never shown another pony with a middle name again in the series.

Just a theory, but maybe middle names do exist in Equestria, but are mostly used for jokes like Rainbow once did. And there are only a small percentage of ponies, those being the more traditional and religious, that actually do use middle names. Like the Pies.

Zephyr with a job? Nope not buying it. Not even the DMV would accept that pile of trash.

I despise Zeyphr... christ.

Also, Rainbow Dahlia Dash? That is outrageously adorable! Nicely done, love it!

MJP

in my headcannon Rainbow Dash's real name in EG is Beau Dashell she just has everyone call her "rainbow Dash" cause beau's a stupid name

MJP

7654148 i hhonsly believe that zephyr was SUPPOSED to be a tool, like a character you either love to hate or hate that you love, kind of like Flash Sentry but they're doing it on purpose lol

This is a pretty good one shot!
Zephyr Breeze is annoying as always :moustache:
Anyway, keep up the good work!^^

Then RD reports Zephyr to the Police for harassment.

In Dash's defence, dahlias are kinda cool looking.

7654252
I assume Pinkie's middle name is Eugene in the EG universe. I don't know why. I suspect it has something to do with a throw away joke from one of the sao abridged series that I unfortunately have never been able to locate again.

7654537 And they come in a rainbow of colors
Not sorry

I liked the Dalilah name too ... but my computer shows that as the wrong spelling. According to my laptop, it should be spelled Delilah or Dahlia. :rainbowhuh: That just left me confused

7654252

found it, never mind...

7652561 The horror aequi principle is something to keep in mind, but remember that it almost entirely acts on the basis of close proximity, and common words get more of a pass anyway.

So there really isn't a reason to fall into Lavender Unicorn Syndrome just to avoid repetition.

Good story! I was hoping it would be something more embarrassing or girly like Talulah or Priscilla or even something like Betty, but Dahlia is both cute and cool and kinda suits her in a weird way :)

Edit: My other choice would be Sheila. 'Rainbow Sheila Dash' ...yep, perfect :P

MJP

7654576 wait what is this

7652425 You prefer her living in a material world, being a material girl?

"That's gonna be thirty bucks, Dashie."

Dash just smiled, "If you ever get out of the coma, remember you asked for it.."

She then kicked him 30 times in the face. "We use bits here," she noted with a smug expression.

:trollestia:

Of note: My great grandparents were award-winning members of the American Dahlia Society in the 1920's, when the flowers were most in vogue. They developed several new varieties. I still have two of their medals.

Dunno, this kind of fell flat for me. Scootaloo's impatience and annoyance at the situation is kind of contagious - this isn't really funny, per se, or at least not enough to carry the story. It ends up feeling aggravating more than anything. Even Rainbow's name itself doesn't make for a good joke. I can tell how this is supposed to be comedy... but I didn't actually laugh at any of this. The writing is solid and you made a good facsimile of the experience of dealing with incompetent office drones here, but that isn't the same as being entertaining.

Vaguely disappointed it wasn't "Miriam," by the way.

7654648
an explanation for why I think Pinkie Pie's middle name is eugene in the EG universe.

All of that...just for that name?

7655213 It's completely fine; I know that not everyone shares the same sense of humor. I appreciate the criticism! Maybe you could read my next one? I have several more ideas lined up. :twilightsmile:

7655333
Shoot me a link, I'll look it over when I have the time.

Typo:

Scootaloo let out a loud sigh, kicking up her feet onto the consul of Rainbow Dash's car.

( Possible only in Ford Consul I think? ;) )
- console

Isn't Zephyr Breeze Fluttershy's younger brother? If he is, then why is he working at a full time job when his sister is still in high school?

7654307
I just didn't like him cause of the shipping stories that fell from the sky so soon after he popped up. :pinkiesick: that and the thing they did with Flutters parents trying to get her to date him or whatever, but yeah I understand.

Also, someone didn't like my comment :rainbowkiss:
