At last free from Opaline, Misty wants what every grown pony wishes for—to fall in love. Luckily, she's got her new best friends to give her advice. And perhaps a secret admirer...?

Casual slice of life, rated T for occasional innuendo. Please don't take too seriously.

Toots. Or Thunder Flap. He is constantly annoyed by ponies assuming he and Zoom are together.

I would say this is a pretty interesting story although there was one story I thought it was kind of cute shipping and it was between hitch and Misty even though they really have not interact with each other in the show but maybe they can since she joined in since the later episodes but I still think it's a pretty cute shipping who knows but keep up the good work

Best way for a pony crushing on Zipp to get her attention is to send a Saint Tail-style romantic, flirty warning that they're planning an impending heist and daring her to stop them.

But then, she'd probably get Hitch involved. Maybe just an anonymous "your secret admirer" note and heart balloon would do. Written with the left hoof so she can't analyze the hoofwriting. And a mane hair planted as a red herring.

Some part of me really wants if to be Sprout even though I have zero evidence to support that claim. :rainbowwild:

Comment viewers note the following spoilers are not for this fic but for MYM.

Not related to the fic but it was obvious from the start that Misty would turn on Opaline and become the final member of the new mane 6. The question now is where will things go from here? Will they keep Opaline as some irredeemable villain? If not then how much of a role will Misty play in Opaline’s redemption? Will Opaline discover Misty is now only pretending to work for her?

I'd say probably Rocky, because he's one of the few males that we know for a fact goes to Mane Melody regularly.

...That's a lotta porn.

Rocky...? Something tells me he's painting the other hoof as it were.

I honestly haven’t thought of a shipping partner for Misty. 🤔

First guess would be Rocky. Second (funny) Guess, Phyllis Cloverleaf.

Though personally, I get more of a bi-femme vibe from him.

Yeah, their sparkle is the key, but guessing aside, (I'm not good at guessing games so I don't often participate, especially when it comes to love) really, everyone can see Sparkles now? Or is that just the narrator?

EDIT:OK, I'll throw in some thoughts...
On Misty's age:
When the stars happened Sunny wasn't born yet and it was her father that documented the stars, but Misty had already learned to read a year before that. By her speculation Misty could be seven by then, and Sunny is twenty-five now so Misty's at least eight years older and probably even more, like ten, which isn't that cougar-worthy in my opinion.
About Misty's admirer:
As for the admirer, I haven't seen the latest MYM (not because I don't want to but because I wanted to wait for the translation team to get it ready on their account) so there's probably a bunch of things missing, but let's use the razor and just consider the easiest options in maretime bay (which rules out the guards from Zephyr Heights). That character came to Mane Melody the second it opened and called Misty by name, so they're a character who at least isn't a downer, which from where I see rules out Posey and Sprout. Could it be the members of Mane Melody? Maybe,
but wouldn't they be already here for work instead of coming after the door opened? I think stsff members like them should greet the customers or report for duty first. So sorry, but I don't think Rocky or Jazz fits the bill. After that, we know they have a familiar voice, but I'm running out of obvious choices so this is where my guess ends. There are also Windy, Fifi, Dahlia, Sweets, Toots,
and a bunch of others that I don't remember that well. But they're here when the shop opened, so it's likely that they come here often? Now I just need to rewatch some canon material to see who aren't likely to come here...lol I'll do that laterTM when I actually have the time.

Also there's Zipp's crush:
Since Pipp will laugh so it's someone they both know for a while. Like the guards, the Mane Melody group, or just inside the Mane 5 friend group,
but really, as a professional media influencer I think she'll be laughing just because Zipp made it mysterious and non-gender specific even though Pipp had "known" that it was a stallion.
Also they spent a lot of time together so it's most likely Hitch. He's the pony who had done plenty of work with her so that's easy.

Also one final little thing:
when Sunny asked whether Misty liked stallions it's Izzy who interjected and added the "Mares" part. So either she sort of swings that way, or she doesn't really care about genders because she's just a sweet but observant girl who just thinks "love is love" or something. And judging by her cheerful nature she probably would had added her own experience if she had the chance, but she didn't, so she is likely to be empty in terms of relationships at the moment.

Yeah…that's that, don't mind my rambling, just wasted a bunch of time thinking about silly stuff again…yay…

“Look Misty, there’s a whole collection of 500-year-old porn in the castle library. All we gotta do is have you watch them while we hook you up to the machines at Zephyr Heights General Hospital Institute of Sexology (that’s a mouthful). Then we can deduce who you’re attracted to.”

...you and your hobbies, Zipp.
It'd be funny if the pony that has a crush on Misty turns out to be Sprout. Or Posey.

That's actually some pretty solid analysis, and at the level I had hoped readers would engage with the story. Thanks!

You're welcome! I actually like thinking about things and sharing thoughts (because that's where the magic of friendship happens boy~) and because we can learn more about what's beneath the stories, thus make connections between things. (seriously, I believe that making connections between things clear is a great way to solve issues and bring fandom or community members in general together to do Big things.)

I actually was hoping that I'd get a confirmation or something but I realized that this story is too short for that…and it lacked clues…
But getting an appreciation is cool, too. Hope that you continue to write more stories for all to enjoy here~

loved this it was funny to read some of my fave parts where "Oh yeah, I slept with you girls at the unicorn sleepover right? I took this mini quiz online, and it says I’m ‘lesbian polyamorous.’” I laughed so hard and then the "And…I just don’t know what it feels like. You love Sparky right? What does it feel like to you? Do you feel like you want to ‘sleep’ with him?" had I'd not finished sipping my drink 2 seconds earlier it would of been all over the keyboard LOL but he best line was by the future queen Zippy "“500-year-old porn collection. Remember, sis?”" I was rolling for a good minute on that, yeah zippy is a clopper lol. I feel for misty trying to figure out love is a pain in the balls as for her crush honestly I wont lie I have no clue. sadly the shows never really flushed out the characters so other then basic details kinda hard to know any of them... except pipp she is just a social media network that came to life
