What Rarity Needs by Ebon Mane

Pretty good shipping story. Might be a little biased since I’m a fan of Applejack and Rarity, but still was a sweet story. A little rushed in places pacing-wise, but all the characters were very believable. Also had a few tiny bits of fun worldbuilding. Like the throw-away line near the end about Spike being able to see illusion magic because he is a dragon. Story is also fairly predictable, but it avoids being a major flaw. I’d recommend it if you wanted a simple shipping story.

Silly and fluffy. It’s pretty much what the title and description promise. I laughed at it and you might too. Just don’t expect anything, well, anything with substance. It’s just a silly comedy.

[story tagged mature] [my original review]
Porn. Bit extreme in the SM part of the BDSM, but pretty well done. Has some very extreme pain play in the second chapter, so anyone who doesn’t like that sort of thing should steer clear. I still think my favorite part is the description.

Much like previous, though not nearly as extreme. First chapter even has a bit of story mixed in with the porn. In semi-related, I’m once again reminded how curious I find that BDSM seems to be such a social kink. In general anyway.

Meh, I was unimpressed with this. It was a bit too reasonable and I don’t see Princess Celestia acting like she does for so long in these letters. The second chapter that isn’t in the letters is a bit better. Now, I really liked Letter to the Gryphon emperor, which is similar. That was because that one had a increasing curve of ridiculousness that made clear it was meant to be comedic. As well as something like that (a thorough point by point explanation of why war is a bad idea) is something I could see Twilight Sparkle doing.
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.
