The odds of ramming face-first into the same pony twice are high enough, but by the third time you start to question if the universe is doing this on purpose.
Twilight wrestles with how do deal with her rapidly developing crush while said crush helps her find her way around the palace of the Crystal Empire. Feelings are hard, especially when you have zero prior experience with this particular sort.

This is a Flashlight fic, but it was written less as a romance and more as a character study on how Twilight behaves when she's got a crush. Cover art is mine.

“And you'll figure out kissing and stuff as you go,” Pinkie chirped. “It’s really easy. And fun!”

:pinkiegasp: she kissed some pony before!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm thinking Twilight's going to give Flash her number and tell him to "Call Me Maybe" :raritywink:

Really well done. Nerd awkward ponies being awkward nerdy ponies with a crush is always a recipe for a good time. As for your characterization of Flash Sentry I think you nailed it. From the few bits of equestria girls he was in, I surmised that his character was more awkward and odd than his pretty boy looks implied and I feel that you translated that very relatable and amusing character in way that makes Twilight's falling for him seem very real. Beyond that fact Twilight is adorable when she is freaking out over something and if one thing freaks out awkward ponies it is crushes. Great job yiu have earned your fav and up vote.

I sorta wanna see a follow up to this. It's fantastic!

That's a great story. Really should be part of a bigger story though.

I think you've raised the bar for all future Twi/Flash stories: this one sets exactly the right tone. :heart:

Thoroughly adorable! I'd love to see a sequel to this.

This is awesome! :pinkiehappy:

4478254 Pokey, Donut Joe, and Cheese Sandwhich never knew what hit them.

This is cute, but I want to know who Fluttershy has a crush on.

I liked this. It was very well written and it was cute. To be honest, I like this far more than the screen time Flash actually got because it felt more genuine, rational and not forced at all.

I know people are down voting it because it's FlashLight; but really it's good!

This seems interesting. I shall give it a read.

This story is nothing. It's a wispy little puff of nothing.

It is, however, a very nice little puff of nothing, so kudos for that.

chapter 2!!!!!!!!! Hurry!!!!!!! :heart:

Only problem I have with canon-Flash is that so far his personality has been nonexistent. I wouldn't mind seeing him in the series if they made him an actual character.

Your fic seems like a nice intro, though. I'd like to see it progress to a first date. Hopefully without rom-com shenanigans. I mean, Twilight has enough problems with romance by being much smarter than anypony else, and neurotic to boot.

I'm hoping it's a certain rainbow maned, speed loving pegasus.

I agree with the others. This story has way too much potential not to be continued. If you do decide to add more to it, I'll be definitely looking out for it.

That was a good story. Nice job. :twilightsmile:

I think I'd like to see more of this.

Short, cute, and direct.

Just like I like my women! :pinkiehappy::heart:

This was really nice, but it honestly felt like the beginning of a story to me. Are other chapters coming?

Very cute! Any chance of more?

I've never watched EqG...but this was fun. I liked it. I'd read more of it. :pinkiehappy:

I've only ever written a handful of multi-chapter fics in my life, and of that handful I think I've finished three. I had no plans for this to be multi-chapter, just some open-ended character exploration and fluff. So, while I'm flattered so many of you seem to want more it's not very likely. I'm not especially reliable for multi-chapters, and I would just feel like a big jerk if I tried to make a continuation and then never finished it.

4478254
Pinkie is so excitable and friendly that I've always head-canoned that she tends to see dating as just another fun thing to do with friends, except maybe this fun thing could result in something bigger. In my mind she's an I'll-try-anything-once sort of girl. If you ask her out, she will probably say yes.

4479333
Hehe, yeah, I left that vague on purpose. I figure I'm already pushing it with writing a FlashLight fic, better not step on anyone else's ships while I'm at it. You can imagine it's whoever you want.
4479919
And this is exactly what I mean. I'm more into AppleDash myself, but in your mind's version of the story, it can totally be Rainbow she's crushing on. Everybody but the Flash haters is happy.

(In my mind it's totally Big Mac.)

4481226
Well, I can understand your point of view. You wouldn't believe how many stories I've started but haven't finished. Still, this storyline is too good not to continue. If you don't feel up to making a sequel that ends just as open ended?

4481368
A short sequel is certainly not out of the question. If I ended up thinking of something specific I would want to do with it then I'll absolutely write one. I just wouldn't expect it particularly soon.

I must join the bandwagon of what everyone says and agree that this story is just too good to be left as a one shot story. This has the potential to be an on going story of two characters facing unique situations and the friends they have to help guide them to make the relationship work.

Who's Fluttershy's crush? Big Macintosh?

I love the twilight/flash ship, there really isn't too much if it on here. I think you did a great job, it's a cute little story. :twilightsmile: I would love to read a sequal if you were planning on writing one. Maybe a chapter on fluttershy?

4481498 I definitely get where you're coming from in not wanting to put up anything you might not finish. I had one story that had a gap of several years before I got back to it and finished it up. Since then I've only posted stuff I've finished first - including multiple chapter stories.

The main thing it's made me realize is that I don't write very well without a point to write to. It's not always the end of the story, but I need some event that things are progressing towards for me to have the clarity and direction I need to actually finish the work.

Don't know if that's the case for you, just thought I'd share.

Enjoyable and cute. Would read again. I've always found the amount of hate Flash gets to be rather stupid.

4483412 yeah right? I mean, he's generic so far, but he's a nice dude, and there's a chance for him to develop :ajbemused:. I still call him affectionately the Waifu Thief, for being one of the main reasons for hate :rainbowlaugh:

I really liked it. For a second I thought that it was going to be just a generic story about another meeting between the two, but you brought all of her probable thoughts out in a way that I wish the movie did. The dialogue a the end was much more well thought out than the movie and certainly given more time. It may have been a little on the generic side overall, but it makes up for it because it is believable. Twilight more than likely (by which I mean certainly would) be unsure about another field of love, and this was captured well. She didn't act over the top, but she was still her dorky self. She was in character, and that is what makes it good. She may be progressing in baby steps, but that's what would happen, and that's what I like to see.

I liked how Flash Sentry turned out in this story. Seems a lot like me if I had a clue.

I found Twilight's discussion with her friends was also highly amusing. :rainbowlaugh: Seemed very natural for them.

The only thing is I wish there was more to this story. Seems dreadfully short. Good job though. :pinkiehappy:

I thought it was cute.

EDIT: Oh, yes, I did think of something! To me, the one thing that rang wrong was "conference room three." I can't imagine Equestrian castles having conference rooms! Maybe a named room, or a room named after a color? The Commander Spitfire Council Chamber? The Blue Cabinet?

If you read the fine print in Tiny's first comment, you'll see who he thinks it is.

4484180
*who she thinks it is. :derpytongue2:
I'm still pretty new on here, so I don't expect anyone to know my gender yet.

4484509
Heh heh. Sorry, I didn't know. :twilightsheepish: I gotta ask though, are you into Dislestia? If you are, then check out my story "Wedding of the Century".

4484534
Indeed I am, 'tis a good ship. I'll have to give that a look later.

4484556
Thanks. Hope you enjoy it. Oh, and I meant "Wedding of the Millennium".

I'm very happy to see that the downvotes have mostly stopped, especially because it had so many to start with. I don't necessarily LOVE FlashLight (SoarinDash is best ship) but I know how it feels to get downvotes simply because Flash Sentry is in a story. It's not really fair. Now that I see you have a much better rating than before, I can say it's well deserved :rainbowkiss:

4483412 Especially pony Flash. He didn't do anything wrong. I like pony Flash, though I'm not too fond of human Flash. Human Flash was too 'perfect'.

4485146 Even then, human!Flash was a nice guy supporting character who Twilight found to be kinda cute. If the writers had taken the time out to develop him it would have left less time for the actual main characters.

I love how every FlashLight fic gives Flash Sentry a whole different personality since he doesn't have one.

Deleted scene from the Avengers:

Ok... Just... Lol.

*insert Popeye laugh here*

Oh and one minor thing: you have "how do deal" in your description instead of "how to deal".
