At the end of the rainbow
The night had come for their big performance, Sonic Dashfire was going to make their first appearance in Canterlot, in front of Celestia and Luna. They took the night beforehand to celebrate with one of Pinkie Pie's parties, retiring to a party of their own back home. As they rested next to one another, Rainbow Dash stared into Spitfire's big amber eyes and couldn't help but smile. "Hey Spitfire?" The yellow pegasus gave a small 'hmm?' in response. "Since that night on the hill, I've had... the most amazing time of my life. You make me proud to be in love with you. That might not exactly... mean much. I mean, I'm a pretty proud pony... but I mean it. You make it seem almost... more natural to like mares than stallions."
Spitfire looked into those big pink pools and felt her lips curl upward. "Dashie." She caressed the blue pony's cheek with a hoof and gave her a kiss. "This is natural... for us. Love knows no bounds. It doesn't matter if you like stallions or mares. The fluttery feeling in your chest or the jump in your stomach, that's how you know." She rubbed her nose slowly agains that of Rainbow. "I-"
"I love you Spitfire." Dash got to it before Spitfire could even get her second syllable out. "You make my heart fly faster than I ever could, you clear the clouds of doubt in my mind. Spitfire, I'm not that poetic a pony, but I'm saying what I feel. You're amazing."
Dash's words warmed Spitfire's heart and she almost began to cry in joy. "I love you too Rainbow Dash." The two ponies hugged and exchanged a kiss. Spitfire sighed in content. "All the fame, bits and glory in Equestria could never have been enough for me if I never got to be with you Dashie. I know because I pretty much had that, and it was boring, but with you, it's enjoyable again. I've become even better as a flier since I've been with you. I'm flying for me again, I've broken down barriers I never thought I could get through before you helped me." She nuzzled up close to the cyan pegasus. "You risked yourself to take care of me when Gilda started harassing us, you taught me how to pull of a sonic flameboom in a matter of days. Rainbow Dash... I may have been your hero, but you've done a lot more for me."
Rainbow Dash felt a tear in her eye as she pulled her other closer. "By Luna's moon and Celestia's sun, this never even happened in my dreams. It's too..." Dash let out a heavy breath of joy "perfect." She closed her pink eyes and mashed her lips tight against Spitfire's. The two kissed deeply and held one another closely as they let the night drag on, falling asleep in one another's arms to rest up for the coming day.
When Celestia brought her sun into the sky that morning the pegasi awoke and nodded to one another with their shared knowledge of what came next.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The duo waited until it was time for them to go out from inside of the top of one of the many towers of the royal castle. Rainbow Dash walked back and forth nervously on the stone floor as the time ticked onward. "I've never felt so nervousbefore! I haven't performed in Canterlot, hay I choked in the Young Fliers Competition!" She began to hyperventilate.
"Whoa, calm down there blue. You'll do fine. We've practiced until out wings wanted to fall off." Spitfire walked over and gave Rainbow Dash a reassuring pat on the back.
"I think I'd have an easier time taking down another god of chaos." Rainbow Dash calmed down with the sensation of Spitfire's touch. "But I couldn't be happier anywhere else but with you." The two faced one another and pressed their foreheads together, having their noses meet as well. They looked into one another's eyes and smiled lovingly.
"You guys are on in ten minutes. Are you ready to go?" Spike was standing at the door, keeping it open just a crack as he asked.
Without looking up to address him, they confirmed that they were ready and he walked out, bringing the door to a close. "This is it Dashie. Our success begins now."
"And mine began when I confessed my feelings for you. It's been a fantastic ride up to this point, and it only gets better from here." Rainbow Dash closed her eyes and placed their lips together. Spitfire returned the gesture, opening her mouth. She was returned with the feeling of Dash's warm tongue on top of hers. Both pairs of wings reached toward the ceiling as their kiss went on. Rainbow Dash began to push into it as spitfire submitted and placed her back on the stone ground, her wings sprawled. The yellow pegasus brought her front legs around Dash's neck as the two ponies felt emotion swirl through them. Rainbow Dash brought her head up and broke the kiss, staring down at her beloved. "We'll pick this up later Hot Lips, but for now..." She licked Spitfire's nose affectionately "we have a show to do."
Spitfire gave her usual chuckle, but this one was a bit more feminine. She stroked her partner's rainbow mane with a glimmer in her eye and a sparkle in her smile. "I'll hold you to that Dashie. I was quite enjoying myself." Spitfire gave a little wink to her blue partner and stole another quick kiss. "Shall we?"
The two walked to the top of the tower where they looked down from on high. Their audience was much larger than expected. There were ponies everywhere, all cheering for the two pegasi. It was intimidating. "Everypony in Canterlot must be here to see this. It's ridiculous!" Rainbow Dash stared with her jaw open in awe. Unicorns, earth ponies, pegasi, and even the two alicorns in existence were watching them. Celestia and Luna sat from their own personal balcony above the other ponies. Dash gave a hard gulp at the sight of royalty. As she pictured herself flying through the air, she thought of all the mistakes she could possibly make and began to shake. 'I'm gonna humiliate myself in front of the princesses!' She started to feel her wings loose feeling and her muscles turn to goo. She couldn't do this today, maybe they would understand, she'd just tell one of the guards that they'd come again another day. She nodded and turned her head to Spitfire to tell her the situation. Spitfire wasn't nervous at all. Dash only saw the calm collected pony she had fallen in love with. The strong golden pegasus she called hero, and now, lover. Spitfire turned her head towards Dash as well and smiled reassuringly, nodding in a way that seemed to echo 'I'm with you.' Rainbow Dash's strength burst back into her as she nodded back. She was with Spitfire, the pony she loved. She would be perfect, no, they'd be perfect.
The two spread their wings and leaped into the air. They descended at a rapid pace before pulling up and flying over the audience causing them to squeal in delight. There was no room for normal tricks in this show, they were performing in front of the most important ponies in Equestria. Their best non-sonic tricks were enough to make the attending Wonderbolts gasp in amazement. Hairpin turns were pulled off from what the audience perceived to be as simple as walking. The two ponies would fly full speed at one another, missing collision by mere centimeters. Spitfire had performed in front of royalty and large crowds before, but this... was different. She could feel the adrenaline again, how it used to be so long ago. It felt amazing as she felt the energy pumping thick through her veins, performing with Dash also gave her something new, a feeling of joy and pride and even honor to fly with someone as great as Rainbow Dash. Her heart threatened to pop out and fly alongside the pegasi. She regained the thrill of flight once again.
The two ponies met up in midair as they ascended higher and higher, holding one another in a loving embrace. After they passed the clouds they met lips and parted, falling to the ground and building up speed. Simultaneously, they met their barriers and with renewed vigor, busted their way through easily with a thunderous boom that shook the very land below them.They performed flawlessly, trick after trick after trick. Where their normal shows would last only about a half hour before the strain of going supersonic would tire them out, but with the adrenaline and energy that they fed one another, they were able to go a whole hour before they tired out. Once again they finished off their show with the signature heart design, meeting up in the center. The audience was screaming at the top of their lungs by the end of the show. They landed down next to Scratch and offered her to join in on their bow.
Spike stepped out onto the stage with them and announced that the show was over, the crowd roaring with applause and cheers. "That's it everypony! Have a safe travel home, and don't forget to come see Sonic Dashfire again!" Spike grinned as everypony gave one last round of applause and walked or flew off towards home, still talking to one another about the spectacle they just watched. Then came the fans for their autographs. There must've been hundreds of them! The two had autograph signings before but not with this many ponies. After the crowd cleared and Twilight reclaimed Spike, they saw someone approaching that made them tense up.
"I thought I told you to leave Gilda! Didn't you get banished?" Rainbow Dash narrowed her gaze and dug at the floor of the stage, ready to charge if need be.
"I'm not allowed back in Ponyville Dash. Besides..." Gilda's tone wasn't as rude or angry as it usually was, she actually sounded... kind of sad. "Look... Dash. I... I know that I've been... a real bitch the last few times you've seen me, and I can admit that. It... just took me a few kicks to the head to realize that." The griffon rubbed at her arm as she looked at her feet in shame. "I've been thinking really hard as to why I've been acting that way. I don't... normally do this... stuff."
Rainbow Dash looked confused as her old friend went on. "I'll say. You're usually more action than thought."
"I've had a bit of help..." From behind Gilda, two ponies, slightly larger than most, stood next to her. The princesses of Equestria smiled at Rainbow Dash and Spitfire. The pegasi looked up at the royalty in awe, giving a bow.
"That was a remarkable show my little ponies. Truly you are the fastest fliers in Equestria, if not the best of all!" Celestia said in praise. Dash and Spitfire looked up with a smile. The Celestia of Equestria was calling them the best fliers she knew.
"Thou see, when thou sent your princesses thy letter, we requested the attendance of one Gilda to our presence so that we might talk with her." Luna had grown much better at controlling her volume since last Nightmare Night.
"We kept her away from Ponyville to keep her out of your minds while we spent time with her ourselves. Together my sister and I taught Gilda the magic of friendship from Twilight's letters." Celestia spread a wing across Gilda's back.
"It took a while, but I realized that I was doing things all the wrong way." Dash had never seen Gilda act this way. Even her old friend was much more collected than this. This Gilda had a genuinely hurt expression behind her eyes, she looked like she could break down crying at any moment. "I never... exactly... got over leaving you Dash. I was jealous... of Pinkie, of Spitty, er, Spitfire... And I was jealous that you were doing perfectly fine without me too." Gilda's pauses became longer as she started to hyperventilate slightly. "Instead of just talking about it I let my anger take over like usual and got possessive. I was selfish and tried to push your friends away from you because it meant you were getting close to others." Gilda's eyes began to water as she brought a talon brush away the tears. "I screamed at Fluttershy, I was a complete ass to Pinkie Pie, I worked to scare Spitfire... And then I physically hurt you." The few tears from Gilda's eyes became a full sob as tears streamed down her feathers.
The pegasi lowered their guard but remained in silence, Scratch walked up next to them to observe as well. "This one wishes to apologize for her actions, and waits to be forgiven by thee." Luna announced. "And, as your princess... we would very much recommend forgiving. When holding resentment towards one for a long period of time, one loses sight of things. We were able to identify with this one to that point." Luna thought of her time as Nightmare Moon and frowned, looking at the bawling griffon.
"I'm sorry Dash... I'm so sorry. I didn't want to hurt you." Gilda sniffled and let out a helpless and pathetic whimper. "I should've been happy that you found someone to make you happy, but I only got angrier! I'm sorry." Celestia came closer to the griffon, still holding her under her wing.
Rainbow Dash stayed silent, almost to the point it was scary. Her mane was covering her eyes and she wore an angry frown. "You scared Spitfire and scratched my face up. You make Fluttershy cry and try to hurt Pinkie Pie." Rainbow Dash looked up and showed her eyes. "I'm not as forgiving as most ponies, you know this Gilda." Rainbow Dash glowered as she stepped towards the object of her frustration. She stopped just before they could meet beak to nose. "I will forgive you... but I won't be talking to you anytime soon. I'll need to blow off my anger in my own time, and I can't see you until I'm done and ready to talk, but I will be able to forgive you." Rainbow Dash looked hard at Gilda and the griffon nodded in understanding.
"We will keep Gilda with us for the time being." Celestia smiled. "We will share Twilight's research with her in hopes that she can find the magic of friendship once again, and hopefully earn your trust back Rainbow Dash." Rainbow nodded. Celestia looked over to Spitfire, who was smiling proudly at the blue pegasus. "As for you two, I think you've found an even greater magic in your bond. If I understand correctly you're not only partners, but in love as well. So, Could you report your findings on the subject to me?"
"I'll take care of this one Dashie." Spitfire stepped up next to Rainbow. "Your Highness, love... is one of the most precious and amazing things on this grand world of yours. It can come from anypony anywhere, even if you're not a pony." Spitfire looked to Gilda, who had calmed down and was wiping away her tears. "Love can make us all do mad things, whether pulling one another closer, or in more unfortunate cases, tearing each other apart. Gender and race don't matter in love, because we all feel it in our own way. It's a funny thing love. You may love somepony and be completely unsure if they even know you exist, but you could end up being their hero all along as they have been yours."
Rainbow Dash smiled and placed a wing over Spitfire in pride. "Excellent Spitfire." Celestia smiled brightly and Luna in turn. "I wish the best for you two ponies, and I look forward to seeing more shows by you two." The white alicorn turned her attention to her sister. "We'll be heading home now. Gilda, we'll be waiting for you when you return." The griffon nodded, having regained control of herself. The sisters flew back to their castle to relax.
Gilda walked off, still quite somber and lost in thought. "Yo, wait up!" Scratch walked off after her. "Gilda was it? Ain't never seen a griffon before." The unicorn pushed her shades above her eyes revealing the red gems. "The name's Vinyl Scratch, and it's a pleasure to meet ya." Gilda and Scratch walked off together with Scratch doing a lot of the talking, Gilda answering a question every now and again.
Spitfire chuckled in her usual manner and walked down the stairs with Rainbow following. Everything was wrapping up perfectly and the two ponies couldn't be happier. At least, that was their thought before they heard a squeal coming from Applejack's stand. They ran over as fast as they could manage on land. "Applejack, are you okay?"
The country pony's eyes started to water. "No you two. Ah ain't okay..." She threw her hat of and revealed a large smile. "AH'M FANTASTIC!" The pegasi looked at her stand. There was no food, only a cash box overflowing with bits.
"That's amazing Applejack! I guess you had a really hungry crowd tonight." Spitfire was rather impressed at how well the sale turned out.
"Huh? Oh, right. That too. But ah was refferin' ta that!" The orange earth pony pointed to the sky and the other two looked up. They felt their lips curl up almost instantaneously at the image. Spelled with clouds in the sky, was a message left by Soarin'. Applejack, I love you! Applejack herself was almost in tears of joy. "Ah love ya too Sugarcube." A few moments later, Soarin' landed right next to her and the two embraced, pressing their lips together.
It warmed Spitfire and Rainbow Dash's hearts to see them like that. "Hey Dashie. Let's head home, give these two some space huh? Besides, let's show them how real ponies have fun!"
"Don't have to tell me twice Spitfire!" The two ponies flew home, which they had moved above the hill where they had their first kiss, where they were always available should anypony need them. Except certain times. On those times, you'd always see a do not disturb sign on the front door, just hanging there, much like it is right now.

A fitting ending to a really heartwarming story. Certainly one of my favorites.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!
THAT WAS THE CUTEST THING I HAVE EVER READ!!!
Now this may be asking allot but can you (if you ever have the time) make a prologue or (if your up to it) a story 2???
oh btw....
SOMEONE SUBMIT THIS TO EQUESTRIA DAILY!!!!
Epic shipfic is epic. All my stars. All of them. Ending felt a little rushed, though. Sequel?
Ah jeez.
Guess mw3 and ponies doesn't fit ahahaaaaa!¡
30127 What ya talking about?! I was reading
AND playing and it was awesome!
Also this is an Amazing story just with a couple spelling mistakes though. Other then that
A+Mazing The only sad part here... Is that it has to come to an end, like everything
Fine work. Definitely deserves featuring. : )
Noooo it's over! D:
MOAR!!!!!!
Amazing story, too bad it's over!
28555 Most authors make a word or a sentence into a hyperlink to a Youtube video of the song they want when adding in background music, so I'd say that's probably the best way to do it.
Also, congratulations on a wonderful end to a very heartwarming ship fic! I'm looking forward to reading more from you
Grrch.... I think those gray and red splatters and splotches on my walls mean that you just blew my mind.
Also: GildaScratch? Did I detect a hint of that, hmm? Didn't we talk about this?
(Fake mockery is fake) What a 
!
I want moooar!
I love this story! 
loveitoveitloveit.gif
Claps, Claps, Claps, Claps, Claps, Claps, Claps, Claps, Claps, Claps, Claps.
Grate work, you did one fine job with this one. But now there is one less thing for me to read.. What is your next story going to be about and when is it going to be started?'
See you next time!
nooooo its over
great story tho 
gildascratch? sounds interesting, and its good to see that gilda got redeemed tho 
all in all a great read, thx man
30121 IF I ever get the time or the inspiration, I'll be adding bonus chapters to this one, like epilogues. I don't think I'll do an exact sequel though because I do believe I wrapped up almost everything
, and I don't think another full story is really needed.
30123 And I'd really rather nobody did this outside of me
30174 That's a pretty great Idea. Thanks!
I'll be sure to remember it.
30195 I think I'm gonna do a crossover/alt. Universe fic combining FLCL/Fooly Cooly and ponies next. I love both series to death
and I think I could pull off a decent crossover between the two. As for when I can't say exactly, but it's probably likely to come out in a couple of days.
30178 I threw it in for a bonus. It was an idea I saw earlier in the comments and I didn't think I'd be able to work it in, but I found a way to make it work.
Gildascratch?! Sounds.. abrasive, aha.
Good ending, although I feel like epilogues could only improve on the story.. You left a couple loose ends in there, but that's just opportunity amirite?
I've been following this since the early chapters, it was nice to read it in installments, I'm glad I checked it out (although I'm a sucker for romances. (totally manly, ahaha))
In essence, I just wanted to drop a comment showing support for yourself as an author and for this fic as a story.
oh gawd, this is one very VERY good story, you sir, have just earned yourself a (part) fan :D
30258 Yeah. It was MY comment! (Well, posted as a guest... call me crazy, shame on me. Call me lazy, DEATH TO THE NON-BELIEVERS!!!)
Super Big Mac quotes Superior Posterior (DAT FLANK):
"I for one couldn't see Scratch and Gilda even meeting each other, let alone being shipped, unless you're dealing with the type of person that would ship Derpy and Angel just because they're both second tier characters. It'd make as much sense as a manticore and Trixie getting shipped. Trixicore. About as likely as Pinkie PiexPrince Blueblood. Not gonna happen in ANY universe. (Okay, I'll admit that there is enough AU's out there to say that anything is possible, but seriously. Come on, man!)"
... I can't believe I helped with the progression of something that I find wrong... Not to be racist/sexist/idealist, but I seriously can not see Gilda with anyone. Vinyl, on the other hoof... a quote from U-Harmony:
"Well, ya see, when a mare loves a mare, and that mare loves another mare, and all three love another mare, they buy a really, really big bed..." - Vinyl Scratch to Twilight at the end of their date.
I suggest that as a grrrrrreat shipfic. It's got so many ships already, lolz.
NOOO! IT CAN'T END!
Oh well...
30327 I agree, that's why I'm gonna include a few should I get the time or inspiration. Just give the two some time and catch up with them on occasion. Just keep tracking it and you'll be able to find out all the other stories and situations their future years include.
30359 I thought that way at first as well.
There's no way that that can happen, yet the more I thought about it the more it seemed like it could if it were done correctly. I'm in no way saying that they for sure got together, maybe just became friends and started talking to one another. But the way I see it, even though Gilda is very much a bitch she still has emotions, I just think she sometimes lets that drown out all of her logic, sort of like in the Grand Galloping Gala episode when Fluttershy lost her cool as well.
She was in a vulnerable, emotional situation, and I interpreted Vinyl Scratch as a pony who'd be willing to talk to her since nopony else would in that situation. From what I've shown it's just her being kind to someone who's had their heart broken and is on their way to recovery.
If somepony wants to interpret it as shipping, that's fine, if you just want to see them as friends, that's fine too. In the end, it's none of my business what they decide to do.

That picture was bigger than planned.
Hmm... Not too bad, though Trevor is confused? Didn't they both move into Spitfire's house? I thought she had a mansion in Canterlot or something. Was her house a cloud house as well, above Canterlot? Maybe Trevor missed something earlier... Probably. Anyhoof, good story overall! Sad that it's over, but it was a good read! Thanks!

yay
fantastic if i do say so my self this story was well worth the time to read great work.
My name is Scully and i approve this message(and this fic)
30433 "The two flew home, which they moved to the hill..." They moved the cloud above the hill, seems well within their ability since pegasi have been shown to manipulate clouds.

My comment matches your avatar. We now share a small bond of awesome! Just like this fic! i
it!!!!!
Cute ending there.
You slumped again a little on grammar at some point mid chapter, by the way. I'd like to recommend getting an editor, for your next fic.
You've got a knack for cute stories, though, that's for sure. Keep at it and work to improve, you'll do fantastic.
Great story! Really well-written and full of emotions. Good ending too.
Since I can't find a good way to say exactly what I want to say, I'll say it in my own language:
Très belle histoire remplies d'émotions. On ressent très bien ce que chaque personnage vit à tout moment, que ça soit Gilda ou un des deux grands amoureux. En gros, une histoire ben cute!
As others said, a prologue would be nice! (en espérant que ça soit pas juste un "et ils eurent pleins d'enfants. Fin"
)
(I'll let your imagination find what I said.... or Google!)
P.S. adding Vinyl Scratch to the story made it 20% cooler!
30732 I do plan on epilogues sometime in the future, and I can promise, it won't be something so simple as "they had kids." That'd be degrading to me and all the readers. Thank you for your opinion. J'apprécie vraiment votre entrée
I've been posting these pretty late into the morning though so maybe you can forgive me?
30693 Aye. I forget to look these things over right before I post them sometimes.
30767 Anyway the "they had kids" thing is the kinda thing i dont think fits into this kinda story personally
30767 I can edit for ya. I'm good at finding mistakes, and I definitely know how to fix 'em!
When I read the title I actually believed something terrible was going to happen, and I'm really glad it didn't.
Thanks for an excellent shipfic and keep up the great work.
31092 Thanks for the offer, but I think I can manage. I'm actually roommates with Samsara. I'll have him give things a lookover when I can remember to ask.
I finished reading this finally, very well written. I loved your very happy ending and I can hardly wait to read more!!!
Confound you Sparx! I hated spitfire from all the other fics i read where she was an ass. Now she is almost my favorite pony all from one story haha. It took me a while to even get around to reading it because i disliked her so much haha. Im glad i did read it though. Thanks for an awesome story
32532 Why thank you my love.
Stay tuned and I'll be posting bonus chapters. I'll also be posting the first chapter of my crossover fic soon.
32579 That's the exact reason I wanted to do this with a happy ending.
I thought that With A Spark was well written, but it left an upsetting tone in the back of my mind.
I saw there wasn't nearly enough Dashfire shipfics out there and that's my absolute favorite pairing ever. So I went and wrote my own! 
...Is the title a reference to Hammerfall?
Anyway, LOVED this fic (sans my annoyance at the lack of editing). Must agree on the Dashfire thing, it just... works as a ship.
This was pretty great
33288 Huh,did not notice that
. Sure, let's say it is, they're pretty awesome. 
I'm glad you agree with me. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you so much for GildaScratch, warms my heart. I read this and could do nothing but smile. Wonderful story overall and great portrayal of the characters.
Awesome fanfic. I loved it from the first 3 chapters :P, and while the whole story is good, my favorite chapter is 2. And while I'm not trying to complain, there was an EXCESSIVE amount of kissing. Oh well, amazing story 10/5
35191 I understand it could seem a bit overwhelming, but in my experience, kissing is how I've truly felt an intimate connection.
It's my portal into how it really feels to be in love, just the sensation of being that close and going through that sensation, you can feel the emotions flowing through the two of you almost like water. It's something I have difficulty describing in words. A kiss means a lot to me though, and if a couple are kissing often than I think that they really enjoy one another's company. Kissing is fun, and always leaves you wanting more, not to mention you're allowed to do it in public. 
In a lot of my romances you'll catch a couple kissing quite often if they truly love one another, and sort of avoiding the idea if they're uncomfortable or unhappy with the way things are. In this one, Spitfire and Dash were extremely happy to have one another and so they were often locking lips. I can go on about this subject in an entire different story, but I think you get the point. 
Thank you for your comment by the way, I'm glad you enjoyed it and I hope you stay tuned for my other stories.
35616 Thanks for responding to my comment. Makes me glad that an author sees my feedback. Well anyways, while I might not see it your way, I don't hate it. It's just a "little" too much kissing in my opinion. But it doesn't take away from the story at all. Also it may have to do with the fact that I've never kissed anyone.(I've never had a serious relationship) And about your other stories. I'll make an account and be sure to follow you. I happened by you story by reading another fanfic on the side. I saw this and was like "I totally have to read this!" Currently I have 4 unread fanfics open and 1 that's updating everyone once in a while. *ahem* Well now I'm rambling.......Aaaaaaawkward
Mistakes mistakes mistakes. I found your story by reading another fanfic on this site. "everone once in a while" How did I pull that off......This is why I'm not a writer......
36809 Of course, I read every comment I receive
. I'm really glad you enjoyed it! 
It's really encouraging to see comments from the fans, and inspires me to keep it going
. I look forward to writing when I get compliments like yours, and I take many things into consideration when I read the input
. For instance, the implied scene between Gilda and Scratch was inspired by one of these comments as well, and I found a way to work it into the story.
Thank you for reading, and I hope you'll stay tuned. 
36976 wait, *reads "It's really encouraging to see comments from the fans, and inspires me to keep it going"*
*insert 82379181272398172 comments*
JK but seriously this is the best fic i have ever read.
Please, keep it going
oh and also when are you (if you are) gonna submit this to Equestria Daily? it would be a good idea as it would attract other people in as i only found that this existed by searching for a Scratch and Octavia fic i had herd about
37004 I found this from a story from equestria daily and then clicking another story on this site. Which led me to this one XD
