This story is a sequel to Shard: Flim and Flam's Traveling Sideshow Spectacular
Much to the surprise of Fluttershy, Twilight's brother Shining Armor shows up at their door. After a break-up with his marefriend, the unicorn stallion has decided to take some time off and visit his sister. While glad to see her brother, Twilight also wishes to spend some alone time with her marefriend, and help Shining get over his recent break-up. Fortunately, there are plenty of mares who would be interested in a lieutenant in the royal guard, and Twilight has some friends that are more than willing to help out.
Rated Teen for flirtatiousness.
Chapters (11)
I may be wrong, but there are some things you may want to change in the description for this story.
I'm pretty sure those should be "mares" and "has".
For shame, Twilight, keeping your relationship a secret from your big brother. He would never, ever do that to you!
So... Shyning ship?
5136941 New contender for best ship name ever.
5138112 What are the other ship contenders?
Rainbow and Coco, sittin' in a tree!
And then Coco gets knocked out of the tree by Rainbow's massive wingboner.
I hope to see Cadance in this. Show a little drama with the pink princess wanting him back as he goes on a date with another.
Nice chapter, but there's a sentence where a word seems missing.
I kinda wanted Shining meeting Trixie to be its own chapter but oh well.
Conflict! Conflict!
Shyning ship and Twixie is fine and all but some degree of a problem could enhance the story but if not, that is okay, flow and pacing is relatively in the norm.
5148901 Hey, not every story in this 'verse has to revolve around a Sombra scheme.
5151282
I was not pointing to another Sombra scheme just some conflict of relationship and such.
Uh oh ... I think Rarity and Shiny banged, didn't they ... either that or Shiny is gayer than Braeburn and Richard Simmons combined.
Well, crapbaskets. Either Lyra and Shining are going to bond over their shared guard experiences and it's going to turn into a date, or more likely Fluttershy is going to see them bonding over their shared guard experiences and THINK it's a date.
I found something that I think you may want to edit.
I'm pretty sure that should be couples.
God this is so much worse than what I predicted last chapter (that Shining and Cadence would get back together)
I'm not sure what that's supposed to be.
I now want that Batpony routine.
Phew okay Shyning is still a go
Huh, it worked out? Didn't see that coming.
Eeeeeeee i'm so happy it actually worked out
D'awww
Twilight later found them both asleep on the couch while a scent she couldn't identify filled the room.
You go, Flutterbat!
well... that escalated quickly.
beware the quiet one
I wonder if this whole story is going to be about ponies trying to find Shining a date...
Except, wasn't Coco interested in a stallion, Shaker, from the second book? Don't know how this would work.
But Flutterbat x Shining Armor, now that is interesting and may actually be pretty sweet. The only problem is the fact that I can't shake his relationship with Cadence in canon out of my head
Cute? I have my reservations about the end, but I do like the couple. Nicely done
A Dance? Well, well, well, I suspect the Grand Galloping Gala, or something similar at least
Looking forward to it
