    (Just a quick note - the first few chapters do need re-writing.  They were my first works in August 2012)

    You know the saying 'Good things come to those who wait'.

    Owen, from England, is just about to find out if that's true or not.  Besides, he's waited long enough.

    A Human x Luna story.  This is based in a world where MLP is not known.

    >>1000948>>1000971>>1001143 I realise that the concept of this story is a bit over-used.  I like reading all of those stories, seeing everyone's different perspective on it.  I have many ideas in my head on how to continue this story so please bear with it.  I'll try to make it stand out from the others :pinkiehappy:

    Okay, it well written, so you know your stuff, you added some Luna lol, thats good too. But the idea of getting there, lets just say, it's over used, it's piratically a repellent to most people. BUT, it's better then something lacking logic or just too :pinkiecrazy: pinkie. So now, what I would recommend is having the second chapter (and the rest of the story) really really diffrent from others. You got comedy, so make it bad luck funny stuff.

    I can tell you (and others saying) I'm hooked, but it's how your going to make the story that's going real us in.

    When a new character is talking you need to start a new paragraph. This chapter was incredibly hard to read.

    It wasn't that hard to read, but it was definitely a little confusing at times.

    Every time someone new speaks, new paragraph. Especially if it's a situation where: "Twi talks" "Redheart talks" said Redheart.

    I'm not sure how many Americans know what some of those words meant so i offer this...

    Shirotora's Guide to Brit-talk for Americans part 1:

    Candy floss = cotton candy

    Chest of drawers = dresser

    Meter = 3.3 feet.

    Just remember my fellow Americans, bare with them. It's not their fault they can't speak the language they invented.:trollestia:

    HumanXLuna always a nice thing.

    but in many storys there is always a big problem, enemy or something like this and its "testing there relationship".

    i would like to see how they deal on a daily base. no big adventure, no "i must play the hero", just "honey I'm home. you will not believe what was going on today in court."

    *Sees this in the feature box*

    :rainbowhuh:

    A story with a generic description with an incorrect title ('Good Things Come...' is proper), along with 'human' and 'romance' tags, which are usually repellants of great strength to many readers, and yet, here it is, in the feature box.

    Props to you; you've done something that countless authors on this site have failed to do: Your fic with humans and romance has been well-received.

    ...This is relevant to my interests, (even though I dislike shipping in general) reading later.

    >Lives in a seafront penthouse

    >Playing Xbox360

    >Questions why life is so hard

    I don't exactly feel sympathy for the character when he has no money in the bank because he lives alone in a penthouse, and not any penthouse, a seafront one.  Not sure what housing is like in the UK but seafront diddly anywhere in the US is pretty damn expensive, and a penthouse being ungodly.

    >>1222358 There's quite a few apartment buildings next to the sea where this story is based.  Most of them are expensive to live in - you're right.   But some are owned by the local council and aren't really that appealing.  I mean that - some are just awful inside.  They don't get maintained very well.  Those are called LDA or LDH (Low Demand Accomodation or Housing).
