i read this on .... equestria daily...? before. it was good. kinda weird, (really weird), but well written.
if only there was a Discord emoticon or, a Tom emoticon...
Here take 5 stars. I don't see anything to critique about.
Creative and funny.
197435 alright lets ask for one then
Wow. That was...touching... enlightening.
It makes me happy that I'm not a rock.
Only one thing: What was this gift that Tom had in mind?
Well, that was a great read. Funny, touching, genuinely impacting. Definitely worth 5 stars.

You certainly did! I'm planning a migration from FF.net to Fimfic, which is why this shows up here only now.

The gift was a device for the original ending:
[Boeing says "Give me the gift anyway"]
[Big flash, Boeing falls unconsious]
[Boeing wakes up in a pegasus body]
[Tom's voice: Congratulations, Boeing - you're the new Rainbow Dash]
Of course, that flung all that buildup out of the window, so I scrapped it and went for the good one instead.

Thanks for your kind words! =) the email load was a pleasant surprise to wake up to.

Oh, Casca. Casca, Casca, Casca.
Why, that was rather touching.
Casca you mad bastard,,,
Such a touching story, very well written.
Full review here, but in brief: an interesting novelty, but it feels a tad too long and I'm not personally a fan of extra-fandom memes being used so blatantly.
