Tempest Shadow had switched loyalties rather quickly, but blending into the other aspects of life is taking longer. In particular, Hearth’s Warming proves a bit of a challenge to understand—well, no, more to remember. She’d blocked out a lot of her foalhood. And Twilight Sparkle suggests Sweetie Belle as the one to help her get it back.

Haha, seems like an obvious choice, and I was racing to get the story done today, never mind pick out a clever title. (Also not sure why people are downvoting your comment.)
Will we ever learn Fizzlepop Berrytwist's cutie mark?

Wait are we not supposed to randomly downvote comments? <.< >.>

My headcanon is that it's a fireworks explosion, but almost the same color as her coat, so it's difficult to see.

Heh =3
(And yeah... they are just not knowing i'm just having fun when i saw the title. :/)

No Shit.

Because Jimmy regularly posts bad stories about pony transformations and almost always receives downvotes on a regular basis? Hell, the story he POSTED has 19 downvotes currently.

Ahem... you do realize there are those that actually love my transformation stories regardless of the downvotes, right? :/
And besides... these days I ignore them downvoters because they are only trying to get under my skin because what I do for a living goes. :/

Still, not sure why people would downvote the comment versus the story, unless they're just against self-promotion like that. I don't really care. I haven't read any of his stories, so I can't speak to how good they are.

Honestly though, if there can at least be improvements to that system for stories, it would help a lot. Namely like say which people are upvoting or downvoting it. :/
Great story. Really sweet.
Well that was cute. You really went all out on those alliterations. I can tell you had a lot of fun writing this.
Well done! I should have gotten to reading this one earlier. You definitely poured your heart into all those rhymes and alliterations.

I like to do that on these Jinglemas stories. This was the 5th year I participated, and I've always liked incorporating that style into a children's story feel.
Open up your eeyyYYYEEESS!!
And see the holidays from where I stand!
Me among the naughty! There's much coal is to be haaad!
That was thoroughly enjoyable. I only wish I had found this around the holidays. Nicely done with the rhyming, too.
Wow, that's a lot of alliteration. :)
This is going to be one of those holiday stories for December.
Every December.
I see myself in Tempest. "What's the big deal?"
The big deal is not to lose yourself in 'adulting'. Day after day, year after year...
Then, one day, it's just like any other day. Some more traffic. Way too many people. The decor palette shifts way too far into red and green spectra...and would SOMEBODY change the radio station, PLEASE!!!
Like a foal. Or a kid. Time to unclench your fist, sit in a nice chair near a hearth or a heater, read a book, drink the cocoa, eat the cookies, and smile about that carton of eggnog in the fridge...
Like a foal...or a kid...
The one odd thing is the inexplicable N-years gap before this story takes place. That aside, an instant (looks at time of comment) "-ish" Jinglemas classic! I really like how it's about overcoming trauma without being sucked into overcoming trauma.
