Story Update - Oct 19th · 1:18pm Oct 19th, 2023
Hey everypony! It's been a week since my last update, so I thought I'd fill all of you in on what's happening with the story! Admittedly, I haven't been able to work on it too much this week due to some personal relationship stuff I'm going through atm, but I should be able to get back to working on it more consistently from now on. I'm just about finished the first of 6 short stories that will make up the entirety of chapter 6, so I hope you're all looking forwards to that. Anyways, have a
Thanks for the favorite.

Oh wow, this is all really amazing to hear! Thank you so much for the in depth response to my story
If you didn't notice from the description/author's notes, Inner Strength is part of an ongoing fanfic series called Who We Become. If you want to see more of Twilight, Fluttershy, and everyone else in this incarnation of their world, then that's the place to do it!

I'd love to share my thoughts!
Inner Strength is probably my favorite story on this site that I've read so far, it's extremely good the entire way through and the writing is top-notch. I love the way you slowly built the relationship between Twilight and Fluttershy, it just felt so natural and well paced. The stuff with Fluttershy's past was also really well done, as soon as I saw Fluttershy's reaction to “You know, you look a lot like her, Shy" the alarm bells started going off in my head. The setup to that whole plot point was executed perfectly, and I honestly can't wait to reread this at some point to pick up on even more details. This story is also probably one of the most emotional ones I've ever read in my whole life, I cried like actually 7 or 8 times throughout the whole thing. The ending was just too much for my gay little heart to handle
Other various things I loved:
- The DnD (or OnO, I guess) chapter was really fun, in fact the entire section with Twi's family is a great break from the normal drama. Just very soft and cozy.
- The chapter with Twi and Shy at the creek watching the silly little guys do their silly little dance was a really fun read, and also a great way of demonstrating the turning point in their relationship.
- I absolutely loved the way you wrote Luna, she is genuinely amazing here.
- I also loved pretty much everything about Amber, especially her relationship with the aforementioned moon goddess.
- I like how realistically Applejack is written, she's not outright homophobic to her friends, but it's obvious that she would have a serious issue with it if it was anypony but her closest friends.
- Sweet Celestia I want both Ivy Jewel and Stormy Skies to stick their heads in the nearest blender. Absolutely loved to hate them.
There's probably a good few other things I forgot to mention, but I do want to thank you so much for writing this. It genuinely is one of the best written stories I have ever read, and was an absolute delight to go through. Looking forwards to reading more of your stuff soon!
Thank you for adding Inner Strength to you bookshelf! Would love to hear your thoughts on it if you have interest in sharing, but by no means feel obligated lol
Thanks for the fave.
