In all the years he worked at Canterlot Castle, Greenhooves never thought the Grand Galloping Gala was anything but a bore. But, after disentangling a guest in his garden, he might have a chance to make this year memorable.
A stallion can dream, can't he?

Bittersweet, and using a background character only seen I believe once. Nice choice, and good touch with the story and dream. Bravo!
What a cute story. I liked how you took a small scene in an episode and expanded it into a story involving a daydream. It makes me wonder if you'll do another story with these two ponies. Anyway, I enjoyed reading this.![:twilightsmile:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/twilightsmile.png)

This was adorable.
Awww. This was gorgeous, Minds. You and Lambent did such a great job. A very special little piece, short and sweet, with a great little message.![:heart:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/heart.png)

Thank you.
Amazing job, especially with the daydream sequence. I loved his advice to the guard; it was touching, and really made me think. Thanks for posting!

You're welcome. Thanks for reading!
Good read. The timing's funny because I have a story that I haven't put out yet that has a somewhat similar concept to this fic.
Love this story, and the little G1 reference I see there
(Unless that was unintentional ^^;)

Awesome story Minds - Greenhooves character comes through very strong.

Thanks!
I think Greenhooves' words should be remembered by everyone. That advice he gives, is very true.
Excellent story, I enjoyed it.![:twilightsmile:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/twilightsmile.png)
Fantastic job. I'm pleased to report that I have chills.
I don't suppose you've ever heard of the musical The Most Happy Fella, Minds Eye? Well, it's about an older man who falls in love with a younger woman, and how the two deal with their feelings for one another. Don't be deceived by the title - the "fella" in question really isn't very happy at all. Well, this story brings that show immediately to mind, in the best possible way. Great work.

I have not heard of that. I'll keep it in mind, though. Thanks for the tip.
Glad you enjoyed it!

#Review coming in hot for this story. I have to say this: you're probably going to get more than just an enjoyable for this.
So much to compliment! Squee
Congratulations on your Must #Read status from the Pleasant Commentator and Review Group! I hope you enjoyed the review!
P.S. Squee!
I really want to see more of Greenhooves.
HOW DARE YOU GIVE ME FEELINGS ABOUT A CHARACTER THAT HAD LESS THAN TEN SECONDS OF SCREENTIME? In all seriousness, I really enjoyed this story and I'm glad I finally got around to reading it.

If I didn't, who would? And thanks.
Very very belated indeed given how long ago I reviewed this, but here at last is the like you deserve! Flashy this ain't, but it's always good to see minor characters fleshed out satisfyingly.
