This is a extremely sad story. Pretty much the opposite of the previous sweet story. Not as brutal as I was expecting given the description, but that’s mostly because I have a pretty dark version of Discord in my head. Even with it being softer than I expected it was still something of a emotional kick to the gut.

Silly and short. Favorite part was that changeling Candance was apparently pausing while singing, right where real Cadance would be singing her lines. Even though there were nowhere near each other and couldn’t possibly hear each other. Great example of one of my favorite types of comedy, taking dramatic techniques of storytelling and extrapolating them out to literal events.

Short little story. Good balance of the show and more adult themes. Not great, but pretty good. Nowhere near as good as the other stories this author has written.

Princess Celestia is a bit cold in this one. I like the version of her that is aloof, but warm at least in private. In this story she is the neutral eternal sun-princess even when it’s just her and Rainbow Dash, which is a little harsh. Turns out to be just to set up the twist at the end, but still seemed wrong. Story was a bit too much focused on modern politics and references, but still felt mostly like MLP.

Very short. Pretty good, but not real substantial. Would have loved to get a bit more of this to flesh things out.
As always, The Big Master Review List is here: { THE MASTER LIST }
If you know of a text-format reviewer I'm not keeping track of, please let me know and I'll see if they meet the criteria to be assimilated into the list.
If you are an author who wants a more detailed review of a story I've covered feel free to message me. My reviews tend to be fairly light, mostly just reactions to a story right after reading it. I am happy to give a more careful read and reply to anyone who wants more precision and/or feedback.
My thanks for reviewing Cold Hearted!
