Cadance? Sigh. I should have seen this coming. I shouldn’t have fallen in love with a mare I shouldn’t have. I shouldn’t have become best friends with the mare I loved. And now, I can’t do anything but watch her get whisked away by my other best friend.

Even within your best of friends, there are things that you do not know about. Things that may hold truth as to why Shining Armor can dance even though he knows he can't. Changelings? Perhaps.

The male changeling Vinyl Scratch studies in Canterlot High. Unorthodox may it be to leave the hive, but granted permission from the queen, he studies there and befriends Shining Armor and Cadance.

However close he may be to them, he lives a life of lies. Can s/he withstand the pressure it is to do it? To live a double identity- a pony on the outside, a changeling within? He's Vinyl Scratch- the changeling within.

Rated T for coarse language.

I guess it's about time I read something by you eh? You do look at my story so...

Quite an enjoyable read. I was smiling through most of it. The set up was well done, I enjoyed the scenes like the music class and the bathroom scene where you really took the time to develop what was happening, and Vinyl's budding friendship with Shining and Cadance seemed natural. However, I noticed you seem to have a bit of a flow problem when you're writing out the shorter scenes. The one-line paragraphs feel a little stiff and unnatural and the characters are momentarily reduced to hand puppets as they talk back and forth to each other. But glossing over these scenes left something I did enjoy, and this little problem is easy enough to fix in the future.

At least, that's my take on it.

Cheers! :pinkiehappy:

Will read this in about 9 hours. Sleep is for the week :derpytongue2:
Just gotta inhale the last 150k words from another fic and then i'll read this.

Nice update! It's been a while for this story. You're acting like me when it comes to posting stories. heh :trollestia:

If it's any consolation, Im actually working on another fic. Once this is done, the other one will be at least 50% done too so it will be uploaded xD

I was absolutely sure, when shining attacked Vinjil, it was a dream sequence. Now it somehow isnt:applejackconfused:

3678335 Or is the entire thing just a dream sequence? :3

Nahhh... its as real as it gets... im justifying that under "Personal grudges" loool :pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy:
