While meeting with her friends on New Year's Eve they discover that Twilight has never been in a snowball fight. Spike and the Mane 6 set out to rectify this immediately.

What could possibly go wrong?

Loved it. I almost expected Fluttershy to go "GIGA DRILL BREAK" on Rainbow xD
...And the ending with Celestia was highly predictable, but hilarious still.

No REAPERS stand a chance against Commander Shepard!

This should be a episode, it's so awesome!:pinkiehappy:

Fun read, very fun read. It was funny, kept me interested, and the nicknames the mane six kept choosing for themselves and each other got five out of six laughs from me, Pinkie's acronym earning a much bigger laugh. Excellent use of Rarity's pure white coat color as well; that made me grin pretty hard more than once. Everyone was wonderfully in-character, a quality which really hit home when Fluttershy stammered, "Th-there. Up." I would say you don't need me to tell you that, but seeing as there aren't as many comments on this fic as there should be, I just did anyway.

My love for this fanfic waned when the mane six were so focused on Twilight's snowball fight virginity that none of them questioned whether or not Spike had been in one. He's spent most of his life with Twilight, so it should have been addressed at that point. Her letter at the end is written as though he was never part of her life and still isn't. And distracting him with a gift from Rarity (that's Season 1-2 Spike, not current Spike) seems like a cheap excuse to keep him uninvolved.

Even Spike joined in their playful game.

should really be,

“Spike finally joined in their playful game.”

As great as his inclusion in the story was, it always bugs me when he's treated like a secondary character, which is far from the truth. Personally, he's the character I relate to the most, so the lack of interaction with his only friends makes it pretty hard at times for me to continue loving those ponies.

Although the Spike issue hindered my enjoyment, it's still just a personal criticism. The fanfic overall is enormously enjoyable, and I'm baffled by the fact that it doesn't have more favorites, views, and comments. It's a simple premise executed expertly with a perfect punchline.

The bit where Applejack fires snowballs clean through the barricade is flatly impossible, no matter how fast she's kicking them, unless the snowballs were as thick as the wall, or the wall was incredibly poorly constructed. For packed snow impacting packed snow, the maximum impact depth is approximately the thickness of the projectile, based purely on momentum considerations, regardless of velocity. By the time the snowball has reached one snowball's depth, it has transferred all of its momentum.

It's a funny scene anyway, but I thought I'd share. :twilightsmile:

Umm. You're missing the parts where Pinkie procures a party cannon out of nowhere, Twilight gets hit in the face by a snowball from a letter, Rainbow Dash can canonically fly at supersonic speeds despite her method of flying relying on flapping wings (another physical impossibility, since at those speeds her wings wouldn't generate enough lift anymore)...

In short, physics went bye-bye a long time ago.

How long did it take to fix the wall? You could have actually destroyed reality! Good story nonetheless, i'm really late, but happy new year!
