      Life is unfair. Sometimes even going so far as to thrust upon the young the weight of responsibility. Though, being grown up is no cake-walk either.

    Huh, wasn't expecting a sequel after all this time. Interesting. I liked the original, so let's see how this goes. :duck:

    Hmm, I don't remember anything about Cheerilee being Scootaloo's sister in the first story, though.

    As far as the marriage thing goes, I'm thinking they'll be given a very convincing alternate explanation, but then they'll (Big Mac and Cheerilee) throw the ol' switcheroo on 'em.

    Hmm.

    Everypony looked to Twist who shrugged. “I don’t know,” she shook her head. “A sewing machine, cloth, buttons and needles from the market—who knows?”

    Either that line was supposed to be said by someone else, or you forgot Twist's lisp all of a sudden. (Or you're trying to tell us that her lisp isn't as bad as she'd have us believe. :twistnerd:)

    ... Oh my... I might have to re-read Moving On to remember what happened! xD I can't remember if Silver and Sweetie are just really good friends, or if they're PRACTICALLY dating. (I know there's not romance tag, so there's no shipping, but more like... friend-shipping? IDK. I'm sick, so I can't verbalize my thoughts as well, sorry.)

    It's not like they're five year olds. I'd put them at about pre-teens to be honest, if the mane six are about 18 to 20-ish. Which is generally about the time these things start developing.

    I'm also thinking there might be some Scootabloom there, otherwise I'm missing the point of Applebloom's sort of pained and wistful reluctance towards the thought of Cheerimac.

    Great chapter as always Holly, nice to see that Silvy's family isn't as bad as I first thought, though I hope her (step?)mother will reunite with her daughter. There seems to be some wording issues Holly, like Rarity walking about Sweetie Belle, it should be Rarity's worried about Sweetie Belle... or talking? Bit of a headscratcher right there

    I wonder why Silver Spoon hates Sunset so much.  There's being distant, and then there's complete dislike of them.  Can't wait to see why they'd remained distant for 11 years even when Sunset has wanted to get closer to her during that time.

    Happens to the best of us and since the spelling and grammar are correct, Word won't catch it. Sorry that I haven't been reviewing much, hadn't found the need to and... well I forgot to click the alert box for this story. Ok then recap... Silvy's family are home now, she has issues with her mother. Scoots is Cheerilee and Berry Punch's sister which isn't common, I think I've only seen Berry being related to Cheerilee once and Scoots never (besides in my own head with an OC sister). Is Sapphire Shore's still Cheerilee's daughter?, and Cheerilee is dating Big Mac... I think. Anything I missed?

    Oh quit blubbering Rarity. :trixieshiftleft:

    I'm not one to go pick them out, but there's a number that end up particularly jarring in comparison to your earlier chapters and previous story's near lack of them. Most the sort that wouldn't be picked up by a spell-checking function, such as a word being properly spelled but not the right one to use in the sentence/wrong tense/etc. If your editor can't be reached right now, just go back over it with a fine-tooth. I know it's kind of hard, considering you stared at it the whole time while writing it, so your brain is likely to just sort of skip along, but when you have to edit your own work you have to make yourself go word-by-word.

    All that aside, looking forward to the party! And wondering what Sunset did to damage Spoony's view of her so badly.
