Hey there. All I can really say is excellent start on this side story. I loved the "Nice Job Breaking It, Hero" part on the Equestrian end (at least in the sense that it makes a lot of sense for the trouble starting in THIS universe) AND how well you seem to be handling Sunset's character development. As she said herself in canon, there is a HUGE difference between being a bully and being a complete monster. The fact that she was, even pre-redemption, willing to risk her life to save a little kid AND refused to back down in a fight, even when she KNEW her opponent was MUCH more powerful, really speak volumes for her. Of course, the fact that the decision to show backbone even in the face of certain death ended up calling forth the ring that gave her the power to escape, but, still, it's the thought that counts.
At any rate, I'll definitely be looking forward to more of this, but I also acknowledge and respect that real world concerns have to come first.
8031663 Thank you! One of the reasons this didn't come out sooner is because there were various factors I had to address to make Sunset's situation believable. Plus I had a bit of a hard time narrowing down her pre-reformation side...
8031686 Orange is a bit of a stretch, but remember that this is bully Sunset, the only other ring she'd get is Yellow.
Ever notice that after Sunset's reform, Snips and Snails abandoned her insanely fast? And no one seems to blame them for their part of being Sunset's little minions?

Interesting though I think Sunny can also use the Orange and Green rings
Will it be OK if I add this to my group?

Sure!
8031741 Same for the original story?
8031751
Of course!
8031741 Not that I was much help.

You think Sunset would be more worthy of the yellow light given how much fear she inspired at the school.
