    "Sweet Apple Acres has a small problem, and only the town repair shop has the means to fix it. However the Apple family gets a lot more than what they asked for when an old friend of Applejack returns to lend a helping hoof."

    (Not all appearing characters listed in "Characters" checkbox. Woulda' been crazy full. I could probably say more about the story, but I don't want to spoil it.)

    :flutterrage: Ficks!! Why?!!?

    Awesome story, by the way. I've always enjoyed stories not so much of grandeur, but of the simple concerns of common people, and in this case ponies, and their lives.  It's more realistic in a way.

    Keep going and keep writing, delightful duo! :yay:

    Fret not fair reader, Chapter 6 IS in the works as we speak. That'd be a terribly sad note to end it on, yes? We're estimating ~10 chapters, we're still unsure. Glad you guys are enjoying it though, and we have plenty in store for ya'!

    So....AJ is the kind of mare to get angry-jealous if the stallion she likes hangs out with a mare that isn't her?

    You know, a lot of folks have a big problem with OC's being shipped with the mane 6. But in this case... Well, it's just too damn well-done. I like this matchup.:duck:

    Also, I have to say that I don't like the direction our little love story is taking...if this doesn't have a happy ending, all the fires of Hell shall be as nothing compared to my wrath unleashed.

    I've been tracking this story since it was first posted on EQD, and it's a great story, it really is. But my main problem is that by the time it's updated I have to go back and read the other chapters to remember where we left off last.

    We're so sorry about that, too! Life gets in the way, but we've set a deadline for ~Valentine's Day. So expect it by then! If it isn't up around that time, WE HAVE FAILED. :(

    But that shouldn't happen. :D

    A note to the readers.

    Life and romance is filled with bumps, steep hills and hardships. Nothing worth it, is ever easy.

    'Tis worth it though.

    That is extremely relieving to hear, my good man. Extremely relieving.

    Nevertheless, we ARE setting that deadline. We're going to try our hardest to do it right. Goodness knows we've had the time, eh?

    Wow...  I just found this, and even though I was dead tired at the start and only intended to see if I liked it, I just read the WHOLE THING! :yay:  Those are some long chapters btw, lol.

    When Applejack was like, "it was just a kiss", I was like, "Ouch!"  That kind of rejection, although indirect, is crushing.

    Btw, someone probably thought of this already, but changing 1 letter of Ficksitup's name creates another name that aptly describes the character. ;P  Was that intentional?

    I can imagine Ficks' reaction to her letting her mane down: DAYUM! :pinkiehappy:

    1: No, that was completely unintentional. However I am fully aware of that, and the letter change is a little bit of an injoke between a few friends and I. Fixitup would accomplish the same thing, but for whatever reason we simply preferred substituting X with CK, to make, "Ficksitup". Puntacular names, always quite the thing in MLP:FiM eh?

    2: I wouldn't say it's rejection. We figure it's more of a deflection. Somewhat nervous response to a significant event.

    Glad you're enjoying the story! We have more coming up!

    This is an amazing story, if Ficks doesn't manage to confess to AJ, this is going to gain a 'Tragedy' tag. Poor AJ.:ajsleepy:
