Given that fighter pilots (which is what the Wonderbolts remind me of) are generally given callsigns based on something embarrassing about them
, a mocking reference to their surname
or something stupid that they've done
, I should think that when she does get to put on a blue flightsuit, RD will take the stage name "Highdive".
I didn't really feel sad from this. There should be a drama tag or something for stuff while sad that, while sad, isn't sad enough.
Silly Ominous, Drama is sadder than Sad.
Of all the tags possible, Drama is simply the SADDEST. POSSIBLE. THING!
I think that its quite good, bu could use some polish. I would like to see some more of dashies thoughts before she jumps. Also; i expected her to lash out to the people who tried to help her, though that might be just me.
It doesnt seem quite finnished, though wether that is the story or my wishing for it to continue...
Still, quite a good story.
Quite good, but it's missing some thoughts; What did Rainbow think when she jumped? What did Spitfire think of Rainbow? Why were Soarin's reactions to Rainbow's apology kind? Why did Rainbows friends show the same sort of attitude?
Just saying, Im not criticising, im asking!
81502 I actually have a sequel that I haven't published here yet because I haven't had the time to go through and fix the formatting that got broken. It is however, up on my FanFiction.net page, titled "Picking Up The Pieces". That one doesn't answer all of your questions, but the one I'm proofreading now is. That third story that I'm working on getting "just right" answers plenty of questions, including other things on Rainbow's mind and why Spitfire and Soarin' responded like they did. I'll let you know now that Soarin' and Rainbow have a lot more in common than you might expect.
>>TuxRug How much long until the third one is written? Because, honest to god, I am pissed off with Spitfire over how she reacted in this.
However, if there's a proper justification for it, I'll feel better.
I'm a little surprised at how little views this got. I'll be sure to give a shout out when I update the next chapters I've been raging over.
LOL
28042 I think she would've lashed out if not for Spitfire. Sptifire is pretty much her absolute greatest hero, and for her to completely blow up at RD like that really would've stopped knee-jerk reactions like that and made her realized her mistake.
sigh why can't there be a story where Rainbow is doing something good? Rainbow is my favorite by far, and pretty much every fanfic about her ive read its about her doing something like this...
happy ending though...at least...
Sad, but hopeful. A hard balance to reach.
You have at least my gratitude for bringing this to us all- and apparently the gratitude of several others as well.
Kudos to you.
I wonder, what was that AJ-RD idea you mentioned in the Author's note? Will there ever be a story about it?
A very powerful message indeed. But there's one thing I didn't like: Spitfire.
Needed her to be mad, yes. Be a total bitch to Rainbow Dash? No.
Yes, Rainbow Dash did screw up big time but the fact that Spitfire was completely unsympathetic and not understanding at all to Rainbow Dash in the slightest makes me extremely dislike her and to be honest, I actually want to punch her for it.
You've mentioned it before, but will you be uploading Picking Up The Pieces here soon?
Pinkie's built in suicide alarm
*bump*
To the author, this is a pretty good story.
The only reason why I even found this was because I was checking to see if there were any other stories titled "Shattered Rainbow". Mainly because I'm actually using it as well for my own story.
Wow, that’s a bit harsh on dash don’t you think
That made me tear up a little
