    It's a really hot day in Ponyville, and Scootaloo is working hard to win some bits by herself. The dreadful heat makes her crave ice cream, so she decides to purchase one with the money she earned. However, things never go as planned...

    Original idea by Carmine.

    The grammar is off in places, for example, "invite me for an ice cream" but it's not bad. The ending felt kind of rushed though.

    On a side note... What do you say if I invite you an ice cream?, R-really? You… you will invite me an ice cream?

    that's an easy error, if you speak spanish, (that's exactly how you say it in spanish, literaly translated) and just checked deistar's youtube channel and that happens to be true. So if you take into account he isnt english native, i'm quite impressed by his grammar, If it were me instead, i'm sure i would have been buried alive  XD

    Couldn't have said it better myself. <insert Princess Bride references about 'invite' not meaning what one thinks it means>

    >>1373528

    That actually ruined the fic, ti's a pointless sentence that adds nothing to the story, it just distracts from everything else that was going on.

    There's potential here, it just needs to be cleaned up a little bit in places, and word choice needs to be considered a little better.

    Is it not clear that Rainbow says that to mean she dropped an ice cream when she was a filly? Hence why she stares at the ice cream and says "I don't want you to suffer what happened to me as a filly." Meaning she doesn't want to see Scoots sad about dropping an ice cream.

    #14 · 33w, 3d ago · · ·
    Reply 

    >>1373608well yes it is clear of that but there is a hint of something more in depth, like there might have been something else that happened to her other then dropping her ice cream, but might have transpired because of it.

    #15 · 33w, 3d ago · · ·
    Reply 

    >>1373608

    No, the sentence is quite awkward. It's vague enough and worded in such a way that implies Rainbow is referring to some greater tragedy, like abandonment or something to that effect. The root of this issue is, "suffer the same thing that happened to me as a filly." There's no specific incident mentioned, and the verb "to suffer" exacerbates the vague nature of the wording when it is combined with the equally vague "me as a filly." Together, those words imply some sort of ongoing event from Dash's childhood that she's trying to spare Scootaloo from.  It would be better to just have Dash answer with something like, "Because I want to be" and follow it up with some description of a memory that Dash has of dropping ice cream. We don't know what Dash is thinking unless you describe it to us.

    A quick-fix would be to just to have Dash say: "Let's just say I know how you're feeling." Actually, forget that, just don't have Scootaloo ask why, Scootaloo wouldn't question something like that and Rainbow hasn't really shown herself to be a jerk to Scootaloo.

    I think the 'sad' tag is applied from the perspective of Scootaloo, i.e. she's sad she dropped her ice cream. The entire story is subtle Scootabuse bait, and the switch is that it's actually Scootalove. The last line implies that Rainbow Dash can commiserate with Scootaloo in that Rainbow Dash, too, has dropped ice cream and been sad about it. :rainbowdetermined2:

    Excellent and all, but certainly one of the sliciest slices of life I've ever seen. You could at least have added a twist at the end, like Scootaloo dropping her second ice cream as well. That being sad, I guess there is nothing wrong per se with something utterly harmless being added to our cultural heritage, and even becoming popular.

    Meh, this story doesn't have too much plot to it, but I still walk away feeling satisfied. I guess i'm just a sucker for short lil stories that have happy endings. Most of rainbow's comments were totally on character. But that one "mushy", as rainbow would say, bit where she said "besides, I just dont like to see other ponies crying", idk, I think it may have been a tad off character, but I could be mistaken. Overall, good story.

    What a nice Scootalove story this was. :scootangel:

    The story was basically as follows:

    Ice cream + Scootaloo = Happy Scootaloo

    Ice cream on the ground + Scootaloo = Unhappy Scootaloo

    Ice cream + Rainbow Dash + Scootaloo = Happier Scootaloo

    No secret terrible pasts or some crying about how Scootaloo has no parents (or does she? I dunno "Scootaloos secret origins" isnt complete yet)

    So she is currently a ghost and has joined the Ghost Wonderbolts.
