Wanna know the first rule to successful polyamory? Sharing is caring! That's what your six marefriends say, at least. And considering the lengths they went through to drag you into this relationship, you can’t really argue.
Okay, I really loved he chapter. The flashbacks with the MC meeting Pinkie at the cake and at the horror cinema were cute and interesting read. I'll be honest, I didn't expected Pinkie to be a fan of horror movies or that she'd be a total flirt who knew how to make the guy hot and bothered. The scene with the kiss was intense, and I really like Pinkie's description as a chubby Shortstack. I'm lacing my bets that the next date will be Applejack. Anyway, thanks for the great chapter. It was worth the wait.
8374171 Well there was that episode during nightmare night which she really liked and i pretty sure she said it was fun to be scared so its not too far-fetched
I liked it! Although, I don't know if it was just me, but I kept getting confused when it switched between the present and flashbacks. If I had to give one criticism, it would be to indicate those switches a bit better.
But I still really liked it. I wasn't expecting Pinkie to be this forward this quickly. I thought they'd all have gone through one practise date each before they start treating more seriously. No complaints, just unexpected.
An interesting premise you've set up. Herds are normal, yet it seems so strange that all the girls would immediately go for the guy, regardless of their chemistry. It'd make more sense if these dates took place a couple months after his arrival, giving more time for a gradual attraction. However, given how this is all implied to happen just a few weeks after his arrival, and all the girls seem so gungho, it makes me think there's an outside force involved, like Cadence stopped by and told the girls they were compatible with him. As for the next date, I'm betting AJ.
8375411 That was something I considered when writing the story, but unfortunately, if I tried to distinguish just when each time the flashback occurred, it would break the flow completely. I have a pet peeve like no other when I'm reading and it's suddenly like, 'Earlier in the day, I was doing some shit and this is what happened.' So it was either a little bit of confusion, or really stilted narration. To make it easier, each (date) chapter follows the exact same flow: Flashback -> Main -> Flashback -> Main ->Flashback -> Main.
As for being so forward on just a 'practice' date...? Did you really think they'd give 'Anon' time to relax and actually formulate a defense against them? Also, it's just too fun writing his harried reactions.
8375607 I don't know where you thought it said he'd only been there a few weeks. Pretty sure second chapter I'd said he'd been there for about a year already. Ah, here we go -
Princess Purple glared at you before her features softened and she leaned back. She pushed her small pair of spectacles back up her muzzle and tapped her clipboard on her knee. “Look, I know you don’t enjoy these, but they’re the best way for us to learn about each other. It’s still only been a year since you arrived and there’s so much more we can share. So please, for me, don’t be such a jerk?”
Sorry if I hadn't been clear enough in the story thus far. Just for fact-checking purposes, the MC's been stuck in Equestria for a little over a year - from mid-season two to somewhere in four. How much of canon has actually occurred or when varies because for me, and a fic like this with little to no need for precise info, continuity can suck it.
8375734 Yeah, I'll probably be able to get past it eventually, it's just weird going from about to watch a horror movie to watching a horror movie in the past. It doesn't help that I tend to skim-read, and missed out that they were in his house.
And hey, I have no complaints about Pinkie's advancements. If anything, I'm supposed to be the protagonist and I was caught off guard, so I'd say it worked.
Really nice story, and that Pinkie is a fan of B-grade horror movies is actually fitting. They are mostly to laugh about because they are so rediculous, so 100% Pinkie. About the next mare, Twilight has excused herself and Rarity isn't a out doors mare. So I guess eather Fluttershy or Applejack. Rainbow, I can't think about anything she would do on a proper date.
PS.: If it later gets to the hot stuff, one of them has to be into the weird stuff, there is always one into the weird stuff.
Oh god, that ending!

Do you know you're all my very best friends....with benefits!
So far i'm loving this story and the character development that they are all getting. Can't wait for the next chapter. Keep up the great work.

I am placing my bet it is either Applejack or Rainbow Dash, I wonder who it could be...
Holy shit, I need more!

it had to be done.
Yup.
This is by far one of my favorite stories right now, loved this date with Pinkie and I can't wait to see what's next.
Brilliant, keep up the fantastic work.
8374928 Hmmm, that too

That was actually the catalyst/reason for my head-cannon. Also how she defeated the 'fear' stage of the series' premier with laughing.

Didn't even think of that. Meme that was stuck in my head was from Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series.

Ah. Makes much more sense now.
This Pinkie...
She be 100% Grade A Wife Material. Hand wash only.
After this awesome Pinkie date, i can't help but imagine everything crash&burn when it's Rarity's turn.
I love the story and we're it is head I just hope it is not going to be so easy going all the way. A little drama never hurt a slice of life story.
calling it now-
flutter's is date two.

This...is gold. I had to stop reading so I can get my lolz out of my system. 👍
