Medium Rare and Pan Fry have worked long and hard to build up their culinary empire across Equestria as professional chefs, both really coming to enjoy each other's company. Resilience Redcross, another friend of Pan and war veteran, decides to visit, and Pan goes all out to show her appreciation for what he did to save her life on one occasion. The way she conveys it, however, are not very appealing to Medium.
When Pan Fry goes overboard with the praise toward Resilience, Medium becomes upset and decided to leave, feeling as though he was a letdown. At this point, it seems there is no possible way for Pan Fry to diffuse the situation... or so it would seem.
Written as part of a colab for Bronycommander, who has Resilience Redcross as one of his OCs. Pan Fry and Medium Rare are OCs from my headcanon scope.
Very nice, great work!
Though, I admit it caught me qiute by surprise you did it that wy, after all the ideas we two had. No offense

Glad you liked it.
Yeah, I tend to lose track of the details while I'm actually writing it. If you have any suggestions for how to improve it, I'm all ears.

You're welcome! The ending....hint to a sequel?
10335875
It could be a possibility.

I was just surprised you went the all pony way, due to the fact how had the idea with Jan and James. But no reason to be worried or anything, could be a universe of pony James, just like your idea where Kyle meets Abstraction
Okay

It could still take place in my headcanon scope; basically, Medium was told by Pan Fry/Jan about how she met James/Resilience, but he didn't quite remember where exactly he heard it from, and the story takes place after Jan and James arrived in Equestria. I just didn't think it would make a great deal of sense to mention that they were once human, since it would have little to no impact on the oneshot itself.

Exactly. Or it was a Dream Medium had and as James comes, he Remembers it and realizes it might be not so bad

Thanks!
Medium needs to man up and make her pick. I felt bad for him until he began thinking about the three of them instead of making her pick. After that, I simply couldn't. No upvote but no downvote either. It is a great piece of work but the ending just left a bad taste in my mouth.

Yeah, I can understand where you're coming from. I could have definitely done it better justice, but this was sort of a collaboration with Bronycommander, where there wasn't really a great deal of clarity on either side. I might consider a rewrite one day.

I know Bronycommander very well and he brings up story ideas and they even throw me off. If you do a rewrite though, something will have to happen to cause it to be a different rating....because if they are too much alike and have the same rating, it may be considered submitting the same story twice.
