I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING

WHY WOULD YOU WRITE SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO ONLY MAKE YOURSELF CRY

I like this kind of gentle world-building. I really liked this epilogue.

I find that, after reading this, I am left with more questions than I initially had.

I also find that the number of answers given is satisfactory all on its own.

Have a like.

Thanks! That's exactly what I had hoped to hear.

Not sure I get to count this as any real world-building, it's just a scenario playing out. But I'm happy you liked it.

Awww~
Very sweet, perfect amount of melancholy and relief. Thanks for this!

And thank you for the—Twilight brings a smart phone to Equestria story. :rainbowkiss:

A good little story. It gave off a kind of 'Gran Torino' vibe.

1) Friggen beautiful.
2) This is a piece that I won't be forgetting.
3) Have a f'n follow.

A good, sad yet heartwarming story.
Good job!

Your an ass, my dog drowned in my tears, this was so sad I can't believe this, absolutely tear jerking and emotional, now I'm going to be in a horrible mood the rest of the day and I'll be thinking about this shitty sad story.

I hate this

Have a favorite and like, can't wait for more

There are a few patches of editing needed for this fic, but overall this is not a bad story. I can very much understand the dedication and sacrifice he made for the line of duty. Leaving the story on a somber, yet sad note was a good touch as well.

Good story. This is an end we all have to face one day. Real sad.

Hopefully, when our time comes it won't be quite so dramatic. :twilightsmile:

Oh god, it's a pony Clint Eastwood. I'll need to go see that movie now.

I wouldn't be surprised if there are still places needing editing, alas, my English Grammar is currently not up to par to find it. But, when I learn and write more I'll definitely come back and comb through the story again.

I do hope those were happy tears. :heart:

Marble Cake?

And wait till he runs into the employee who is going to be ALL about the OOH youreaMarble and I HAVEamarbletoo!

It'll be a piece of Cake. Or a slice of Life.

Yup, his full name is Marble Cake.

The Roman Centurion's Song by Rudyard Kipling comes to mind:

Legate, I come to you in tears—My cohort ordered home!
I've served in Britain forty years. What should I do in Rome?
Here is my heart, my soul, my mind—the only life I know.
I cannot leave it all behind. Command me not to go!
