Just an average brony, check me out if you got time.

Everypony crowds around a stallion that waits on a corner. Why was he just sitting there. He's been there for weeks. No matter what happens, no matter what the ponies do or say, the stallion won't move.

They call him the Stallion that can't be moved.

Instant like! Admittedly, I laughed a bit at this. Don't know why. Anyway, nice little story, if only I could do something like that to get a girlfriend. Then again, I've been sitting in my room for hours and no one has come yet...guess I'll just wait.

Also, that part about the guards was the thing that made me laugh, just in case you wondered.

gave teh kiss back to him

Teh kiss?

A cute little one-shot, cute and beautiful, keep up the good work man :D :pinkiehappy:

This is inspired by the song "the man who can't be moved" isn't it?

I know what you did

He gave them the bear minimum of information he could. This gave the newspaper a strong lace of mystery.

That was nice.

Beautiful story and all but...........I just can't get out of my mind the image of just how Shining must have smelled, no, fuck that, what about his breath?

4314019 lol, don't question it, I couldn't find a way past that.

Mmmmm, nice. Could use a bit of grammar and tense work, but the soul of the story is here and it's strong.

Well done.

Aww hell, I'll admit it. That ending line was very sweet. :heart:
Altogether, a very cute story.

4320308 D'aaww cute picture!

When I read the description for the story, I was a little worried it might turn out similar to the Hachi story where the loyal dog waited for his master that never returned:fluttercry:. Boy was I glad I was wrong! Way to go shining armour, you can give dash a run for her element.:rainbowdetermined2:

4321724 I won't lie, that movie made me cry...only a little. :fluttercry:

He probably used a spell on his teeth to keep it from smelling, and occasionally washing it with some of the water he drinks from the passerby's.

4328482 yes! Explain all the illogical with magic! XD

4328516 It is not so much illogical as a simple telekinetic spell aimed at his teeth to move the remaining food on them, or clean them.
And mlp's spells look more like a program's written codes, for unicorns that is, than actively using magical abilities.( at least it seems that way to me)

And she saw him waiting for her, on the corner of the street.

Well, horses are one of those animals that clean themselves differently than humans do. I think he was probably fine. I know the ponies are magical and vaguely humanoid, with full bathtubs in their homes, but they also don't seem to need clothing the way we do, even in snow. My best guess is that their fur protects their skin and while they do sweat and probably shed both skin cells and dead fur daily, they may not have the kind of glands that we do, so it probably doesn't smell the same. Honestly, they probably have a different notion of pungency too, but that would really also depend on their physiology.

But considering that other people have mentioned magic, that's probably the real answer anyway. What are unicorns good for, besides practical wards, manipulations, and removers? :trollestia:

4342830 okay, first, you're right, I didn't thought about magic when readind this XD.

Second, they are ponies and are intelligent, so they cant be labelled the same as animals would, there HAS to be differences here and there and higine must be one of those. Though I might be over-thinking this.

and Third, I saw what you did there at the end =D.:trollestia:

That isn't what I meant. Intelligence has nothing to do with. Most animals don't need to bath as much as humans do, nor in the exact same manner, because their bodies are different from ours. I'm not saying the ponies would necessarily nibble one another's coats, or roll around in mud, or in the case of pegasi, preen their feathers with their teeth, but the way they shed their dead cells and the composition of their sweat may be different enough that they don't necessarily stink quite as much or wouldn't be as bothered by it.

Most animals don't require frequent washing in soap and water, even the ones we've domesticated. While we don't necessarily know exactly how their biology is or how much it differs from humans (they do a lot of things that are impossible for real equines), I think one of the key indicators would be the few instances that we've seen them in snow. They don't really bundle up the way that we do, which would indicate to me that for the most part, unless it reaches historic levels of cold, most ponies can rely on the extra fur they grow in the fall, their winter coats, to keep them warm. I know that isn't directly related, but it would seem relevant to me, since the fur affects the skin underneath, which is where all the odor builds up.

Since soap can often strip essential oils from skin and fur in a number of animals, my impression would be that they probably don't need to wash quite so frequently. Although Rarity did mention a pimple in one episode, and the stallions apparently shave, so it's really not an easy call. I'm just assuming their biology is distinct enough that there are some factors that might keep him from being utterly disgusting by the time she sees him. :twilightblush:

But those are all theories on my end.

'Tis a heartwarming tale, if I am to offer my humble opinion.
