All Rainbow Blaze ever wanted was a son to carry on his family tradition, but when he ended up with a filly instead of a colt, he tried to deny it, but with all the events that he and Rainbow Dash went through in her life, he became divided on maintaining his family tradition and accepting Rainbow Dash as the daughter he had.
I'm not crying. This is liquid pride. Good job, mate.
what else is there to say amazing
Right in the feels with liquid pride.
That was very well done, man. Definitely worth a like and favorite! Cheers (insert pinkie smile here.)
One thing bothers me with this. No mention was made of when Dash dropped out of flight school. In fact, it's implied that she finished it, which contradicts canon. I suppose he could've deliberately left it out, but...
4837012 yes. that was the idea.
So why didn't he remarry?
4837058 he was too stricken with shame of having a daughter instead of a son, so as a result of secluding himself from everypony else, he never found love again.
Haha! I love it, all but the Rainbow waterfall are going into my headcanon! Rainbow Dash is so successful.... I love Dashie.

4837018 Which one, that she finished or he left it out?
Disturbed at how positive it was despite it's premise, but a good story none the less.
4837845 he left it out
This was a neat story. Besides telling things from the perspective of Dash's Dad, I also thought it was unique that this story had the makings of a grimdark, yet still remained hopeful and positive. That's something I haven't seen a ton of writers do, so props to that.
5025437 Wasn't even going for grimdark. Thanks for your words though.
5596383 Thank you. I'm having a particularly rough day today, so reading that brightened things up a bit. :)
5929143 I just now saw your comment. Thank you so much for your kind words! :)

What's wrong with me that I thought about Fleetfoot when I read it?
