I'm sorry for the lack of updates to this story. A new chapter is coming soon, and I'm almost half way done with it.
The only problem is that I am currently in the process of moving to another city, and at the same time I'll be taking a vacation and visit my grandparents.
So, while I don't leave before next friday, I still have too much to do to feel at ease with writing. I'm going to try and at least finish the 'Our Years' chapter, which contains short stories from the five year leap, and I pretty much have the last chapter planned out. I can't say for sure how long I'll be gone, but I'll be back, and I'm going to finish this fic if it kills me. Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.
I can't say much about it, but I'm going to try and surprise you. Hopefully...
Again, sorry for the wait, but as they say 'Patience is a virtue'.
Interesting idea.
I normally despise HiE stories, but I'm a sucker for 2nd person stories so I'll give this one a read.
Not to mention, filly Luna is just too damn adorable
VGCA story!
gratz on the featured for your first story
now for my thoughts on the story:
so cute
Short, yet it meets everything I had expected it to meet, so thank you so much for this wonderful tale. I'll be definitely adding this to my favorites for any further updates.

Very shallow ravine? :P
945948
Thanks :3 It was quite fun to see it up there in that little near-unobtainable box.
945959
I know I know... Which is why I've promised a chapter with short stories called 'Our Years'. Featuring stuff that's worth mentioning.
945969
Thanks for liking it. I tried to keep it short, and it seems to have been the right choice. I could probably have dragged this up to around 20k words or so, but that just wouldn't be as much fun.
Meh, well I can only imagine a shitty ending for our hero.
That's how it usually ends.
But by what though?
948137 I guess your right about that its just it doesn't seem like his parents gave him any little bits of advice
I promise not to hurt you when I get some time to read it. After all, fair's fair.

We'll just have to wait and see, don't we... Mwuahahaha
952135>>941726>>948137
They're all dead, aaand no, they didn't exactly expect the dying part. It was quite the surprise I tells ya!

All is fair in love and cheese.
953950 kk thanks for clearing that up for me great story btw
Someone link to Our Years? I searched it, but nothing came up.
Surprise! I'm back and I have my "judgement" now
This is good, I enjoy the story overall and that Luna remembers first makes Tia seem absolutely adorable. That aside, it does feel short and could have longer chapters. Lengthening the chapters seems doable, but I leave that to you.

It's a chapter I'll be releasing once I'm back from vacation and get it done. I'll be trying to make it longer than other chapters, as others have commented that they'd like some more details in this story. Maybe one day I'll rewrite it completely...

Tia is always adorable. And I thought giving Luna a more serious part might be fun, she's fun when she's serious(at least in my head, we have much fun in there. Don't we Pinkie? YES )
The length seems to be a common factor for critique here, so I'll be trying to make the 5 year leap stories longer and a bit more in-depth. As I mentioned above, I'm considering a complete rewrite if time allows it. I'm quite happy with it, but it could possibly be 'more'. And thanks for reading it, it's always fun to get comments from the more established writers in here :3
998122 I find it funny to consider myself "established" as a fanfic writer. There are so many other writers who do a far better job than me that I really don't consider it too much. If we had the star rating system back then I'd have a better feel for if I was established or not. Something that might help with time lapse could be My Little Celestia which, in my opinion, does that sort of thing pretty good.
998276
Well. In my opinion you're 'established' when you've been here a while, and has published several well liked stories.
I actually like the thumb system, even if it's flawed. It gives a better opinion on a fic than just stars. Though a lot of the really good fics I've read are way far down just because they do stuff like 'Romance' and 'Human' tags in the same area.
I'll give My Little Celestia a read. I started it once before, but didn't like the way Tia talked there... Oh well, time to man up and read it anyhow, the first chapter doesn't always give the story credit.

Thanks. I actually stumbled across it yesterday :P
998693 I can see what you're saying about how Celestia talks, but even that has its own quaint charm to it. She's just a little baby sun raiser at first. Then again, she's also just too cute!
