Dear Diary,
It’s here! School’s finally out for the summer!
Oh man, I can’t wait! This will be the first summer Sunset and I get to spend together! My first real friend, and we’ve got nothing but free time now!
There are so many things I want to do with her, and now we don’t have to wait for the weekends or worry about school.
Although I do actually like school, even if Sunset doesn’t. Well, we have some summer homework to work on, at least. Just one more thing we can do together!
☺
-Twilight Sparkle
“What the hay, Rar?” Applejack crossed her arms, tapping her foot. “Did you really have to pack so much stuff? Leave some room for the rest of us.”
“It’s fine, darling.” Rarity let out a grunt as she pulled a suitcase from the back of her sedan. “Just need to load it all into the van. There should be plenty of room.”
“Uh-huh. And yet when we had to use bungee cords to fit it all in your car, they broke. In case you forgot, we’re traveling halfway across the country.”
Twilight glanced over at the bickering pair as she lugged her own suitcase through the yard. “I’m sure it’ll fit, don’t worry.”
Applejack sighed, rubbing at her forehead. “Dangit, Twi, don’t enable her. There’s no reason for her to be bringing so much, anyhow.”
“Hmph.” Rarity crossed her arms and turned her nose up into the air. She then looked at Twilight and smiled. “Thank you, dear. I’m glad somebody understands that it’s important for a lady to have her accessories.”
It didn’t take long to get the luggage loaded into the van, and soon Twilight could hear the now-familiar motorcycle pulling onto the block.
“Hey,” Sunset said, taking off her helmet and unslinging a small travel bag. “Did I miss anything?”
“See, Sunset packed light,” Applejack said, waving her hand in Sunset’s direction.
Rainbow Dash groaned, slumping across the hood of Rarity’s car. “Give it a rest already. I don’t want to have to listen to you two arguing for ten whole hours.”
“It’s okay, Dashie!” Pinkie Pie said, grabbing her into a tight hug. “I know lots of stuff that’ll keep us entertained during a long car ride. We can sing songs! Oh, ninety nine bottles of—”
“Not one more word,” Rainbow Dash growled, slapping a palm over Pinkie’s mouth. “I brought duct tape and I’m not afraid to use—agh, stop licking my hand! Gross!”
Twilight laughed along with everyone else, then made her way over to give her girlfriend a quick hug.
“Sunset Shimmer,” a low voice said as a sudden shadow cast over the two of them. “I thought I told you to stay away from my little sister.”
Sunset spun to find Shining Armor looming over her, arms crossed and eyes hard. She flinched, but quickly stiffened, stood up straight, and met his eyes in wordless defiance.
“Shiny!” Twilight snapped, balling her hands into fists. “What are you doing? I thought you said you were okay with this!”
They continued to glare at each other for several long moments before her brother finally burst out laughing.
“Geez, sorry, sorry, I’m just messing with you guys. It’s fine, really.”
Sunset blinked, then looked to Twilight, who could only shrug in response.
Shining Armor extended his hand for a handshake. “It’s a pleasure to see you, Sunset Shimmer. I’m sorry about how I acted when we first met; it was a bad situation, and you caught me off guard, but that’s no excuse. Thank you for treating my little sister so kindly.”
“I…” Sunset blinked, hesitated, then returned the handshake. “It’s nice to see you, too. What you said back then hurt, but it’s in the past now. You’re an important person to Twilight, so I hope we can get along.”
“You’re damned right I am,” Shining Armor said, flashing a pearly white grin. Turning to Twilight, he continued, “Anyway, you sure you’re up for this, little sis? Do you remember what happened when I went on my first road trip?”
Twilight rolled her eyes and rested her hands on her hip. “You wrecked your car less than twenty miles out, which indirectly led to Dad refusing to buy me a car when I turned sixteen. I’m well aware.”
Shining Armor laughed. “Yeah, sorry about that, too. Still, you’re a lot more mature than I was at that age. Just be careful and don’t do anything reckless. It’s a ten hour trip, and you won’t get there till early tomorrow morning, so take it in shifts.”
“Four out of the seven of us have driver’s licenses, so we should be okay,” Twilight said, nodding.
“Great,” Shining Armor said. He ruffled Twilight’s hair. “You kids have fun now. Tell Mom and Dad I said hi. Wish I could come with, but that whole ‘being an adult with responsibilities’ thing, you know how it is.”
Before he turned to go, Shining Armor leaned in really close to Twilight, pressed something into her palm, and whispered, “These are for you, just in case.” He backed off with a wink, a click of his tongue, and a grin that was absolutely full of himself.
Twilight looked down at what he had given her. It was a small ribbon of condoms. What the heck was she supposed to do with something like that?
“What’s that?” Sunset asked, glancing over.
“Nothing!” Twilight yipped as she hid them behind her back. “Come on, we still have a lot to get packed, and I want to be on the road before it gets dark.”
"Hey, Sunset," Twilight said as she pulled onto the highway. "Check through that bag at your feet. There should be a small binder in there somewhere. Could you grab it for me?”
Sunset rifled through the bag, pulling out a small case of CDs. “Hyperion? What’s that?”
“It’s an audiobook! We can all listen to it on the trip and it’ll keep us entertained.”
“Really? Hmm…”
Rainbow Dash poked her head up from the back, scowling. “Seriously? I get nauseous when I read in the car. No way.”
Twilight rolled her eyes, glancing up at Dash through the rearview mirror. “It doesn’t work like that, Rainbow. It’s no different from listening to someone talk.”
“Yeah, yeah, whatever,” Rainbow Dash said, waving her hand dismissively. “It still sounds totally lame. Let’s do something fun instead. Here, I’ve got one of our demos we could listen to.”
“Hmph.” Twilight pursed her lips, then glanced back at everyone else. “I’m not surprised Rainbow Dash is against it, but you guys are interested, right? It’s a fascinating story!”
“Um…”
“Er…”
“Well…”
“Nope!”
Twilight looked over to Sunset, her eyes pleading.
Sunset shrugged. “I can’t say I’m particularly against the idea, but if everyone else doesn’t want to, there’s no sense in forcing them. It looks like you have some other books in your bag there. I might read through one later if I get bored, if that makes you feel better.”
“Fine,” Twilight muttered, hanging her head. “Give me your demo or whatever.”
“Aww yeah!” Rainbow Dash made a quick air guitar motion, then started digging through her own bag.
Sunset smiled and rested her chin on her hand as she stared out the window. "You know, I've never really been outside of the Greater Canterlot Area, or even Ponyville, for that matter."
"Really?" Applejack asked from the back. "Makes sense I guess, but dang, sug. There's a lot of beautiful country out there. You're in for a treat."
"Yeah," Sunset said, smiling. "I'm looking forward to it."

“Come on, Pinkie, really?” Rainbow Dash asked, looking up from the small cooler. “The only snacks you brought are cupcakes and soda?”
Rarity sighed and rubbed at her forehead. “Really now, Pinkie, some of us would still like to have teeth by the time we turn thirty.”
“What do you mean?” Pinkie asked, tilting her head. “I’ve never had a cavity in my entire life!”
Twilight glanced over her shoulder. “Okay, that cannot be possible.”
“Pinkie Promise! Maybe the plaque knows I’m too much fun to attack my teeth!”
“Bacteria doesn’t work that way!”
***
“I’m… I’m sorry, Fluttershy, I didn’t mean to. I didn’t see her, honest!” Rarity mumbled, wringing her hands through her skirt.
Fluttershy sniffed, tears running down her cheeks, as she scooped up what was left of the poor squirrel. She gritted her teeth. “I’m not the one you should be apologizing to.”
“I’m sorry…”
Rainbow Dash finished digging the shovel out of the back and walked over to place a hand on Fluttershy’s shoulder. “Come on, Shy. Let’s go find her a nice place to rest.”
***
“Eugh!” I am not going to use a bathroom like… that!” Rarity shouted, flinching backwards and shuddering.
Applejack let out a long sigh. “It’s either that or you go in the bushes. It’s two in the morning and we’re in the middle of nowhere. Ain’t gonna find anyplace nicer.”
Rarity stomped her foot, huffing. “But… it’s dark, and gross, and there’s probably an axe-wielding hobo in there, or a spider the size of a football!”
“Y’all know that ain’t even remotely likely. Do you need me to hold your hand or something?”
“Of course not, don’t be ridiculous. Maybe… just check it out first?”
Applejack glanced back at the car full of her sleeping friends, groaning inwardly. “Alright, fine.”
***
Sunset squinted down at the map on her phone as she parked the van in front of the large suburban home. She was pretty sure this was the place.
“Hey,” she said, her voice booming in the silence left by the absence of the engine’s hum. “Wake up, we’re here.”
Twilight groaned from the passenger seat, and Sunset could hear some stirring from the back, but nobody leapt to attention—not that she could blame them. Sleep sounded heavenly at the moment.
Sunset stepped out of the car and stretched, yawning and taking in the night air. Though it was hard to tell in the dark, the suburbs of Baltimare didn’t look all that different from the suburbs of Canterlot, although this particular neighborhood seemed much ritzier than the ones she was familiar with.
She cracked her knuckles as she moved around to the other side of the car, grumbling to herself. What did she really know about human socioeconomic mobility, anyway? She knew that Twilight had ‘money’, but it didn’t really mean anything to Sunset.
"Hey, sleepyhead," she said, opening the side door and shaking Twilight. "Come on, let's get you to your bed."
"Nnn-mm," Twilight mumbled, shifting slightly. "Carry me."
Sunset rested a hand on her hip. “Are you serious? Come on, this is your house, Twilight.”
Twilight merely made a pathetic whining sound in response.
“Unbelievable,” Sunset muttered, reaching down to free Twilight from her seat belt. “Come on, you lazy bum, get on.” With Twilight’s limited assistance, Sunset hoisted her onto her back, grunting with the effort.
“Hey,” Sunset said, banging a fist on the side of the van. “The rest of you need to wake up too.” She trudged across the lawn and up the well-maintained front porch. “You’re heavier than you look, you know,” she grumbled to the dead weight on her back.
“No, you,” Twilight said with half a giggle, tightening her grip and burrowing her face into Sunset’s hair.
When she made it there, she found a note stuck to the door.
“Welcome home, sweetie.
We’re asleep by now, but the guest room is all set up for everyone. The door is unlocked. I hope you had fun on your trip! Just make sure you’re quiet coming in.
Love,
Mom”
Well, that forestalled any awkward encounters until tomorrow morning at least. Sunset edged the door open and tiptoed inside. She kicked her shoes off when she made it into the foyer, then looked around, her eyes adjusting to the darkness.
“Which way is your room?” Sunset whispered.
“Up,” Twilight murmured, tugging Sunset to the right. “My room is left, guest room is right.”
Sunset stared up the winding staircase, then sighed. “Alright, hold on,” she said, adjusting her grip and starting the climb. The stairs creaked horribly, but with the extra weight there was probably no avoiding that.
She made her way into Twilight’s room and flicked on the light, much to her passenger’s displeasure.
Just like Twilight had once mentioned, her room here had a lot more personality than the one back in Ponyville. Posters littered the walls. Some were from that movie they had watched, Star Wars. Others featured old men in lab coats captioned with inspirational messages about science. A massive bookshelf dominated one wall, while another corner was taken up by a beast of a computer tower and several large screens.
Sunset set Twilight down on her bed, where she proceeded to pull the covers around her and bury her face into the pillow, murmuring, “Thank you.”
A smile came to Sunset’s face as she stood back up and rolled her shoulders.
Something caught her eye: a framed picture on Twilight’s dresser. Sunset picked it up to get a closer look.
In the photo stood Sunset and Twilight, each maybe nine years old or so. They wore muddy overalls, and both were presenting large bullfrogs to whomever took the picture. Their smiles, each with a missing tooth or two, were as wide as their faces.
Childhood in its purest form. For all Twilight had told her about the other Sunset, it had never really sunk in how real all this was. It was one thing to hear about her deceased counterpart and to see how much everyone had cared about her, but to see a picture like this?
Sunset couldn’t help but feel a small twinge of jealousy. Not for Twilight and the relationship she used to have with her doppelganger, but because she could never remember smiling like that, or having that much fun when she was a filly. Just how different would her life have turned out if she had met Twilight at the right time?
Sunset put the photo back on the desk, smiling and shaking her head. The past was in the past; she had Twilight now.
Sunset sat down on the bed next to her sleeping girlfriend and brushed the hair out of her eyes. She really was cute. It was strange; these past two weeks had been new and unfamiliar and wonderful—not unlike when she had first accepted everyone’s friendship last year—but this felt different. The way her heart tightened when she looked down at Twilight… that meant something, didn’t it?
If this relationship really meant something her, just what was she going to have to do to make it all work?
“Good night,” Sunset whispered, planting a soft kiss on Twilight’s forehead. “I’ll be back soon. Gotta go let the others inside.”
Twilight hummed in response as Sunset turned off the light and left the room.
Sunset crept through the halls of Twilight’s house, using the light from her phone to guide her steps.
It hadn’t taken her long to lead the army of sleepy zombies up to the guest room, where they promptly conked back out.
They probably hadn’t woken anyone up,
Her destination now was the kitchen. While the others were off in dreamland, Sunset was still burning late night adrenaline. She was bound to crash, and soon, but before she went to bed she wanted to grab a glass of water and maybe a light snack or something. It felt a little weird to be walking around somebody else's house, taking somebody else’s food, but she knew it wouldn’t be a problem. Worst case scenario, she’d just have to apologize for being presumptuous.
Familiar or not, one kitchen was much like any other. After finding it, she was soon halfway through making a PB&J when she heard a creak on the floor behind her.
Sunset spun, tensing up reflexively.
“Twilight? What are you…” Sunset blinked, then rubbed at her eyes. “You’re not Twilight.”
“Actually, I am.” The older woman extended her hand. “Twilight Velvet. It’s so nice to finally meet you, Sunset Shimmer.”
“Oh. Um, nice to meet you too.” Sunset hesitated briefly before shaking her hand. Twilight Sparkle apparently took after her mother in a lot of ways, though it would be a long time before she grew from a spindly teenager to a full-figured matron.
“I’ve heard a lot about you,” Mrs. Velvet said, moving past Sunset and heading for the coffee machine. “As I understand it, you’re currently dating my daughter?”
“Y-yeah,” Sunset mumbled. Damn, she had been hoping Twilight would be with her when she met her parents. “I’m, uh, sorry if we woke you when we came in.”
Mrs. Velvet waved a hand dismissively. “Don’t worry about it, dear. I’m an author, so I don’t always stick to normal sleeping hours anyway. Drives my husband nuts.”
Sunset frowned and rocked back on her heels as she clasped her hands behind her back. “Uh… is that really it? I’m sorry, just, considering who I look like and all, everyone else who knew the other Sunset has reacted a bit more strongly when they first saw me.”
“Ah.” Mrs. Velvet smiled, though she seemed to stare past her. “While conversations with Twilight about the details of her personal life are known for their brevity, Cadance is fortunately much more talkative. I’ve been informed, and I got it out of my system a while ago. If my daughter accepts you, then you’re welcome here as you, not as anyone else.”
“Thank you.” Sunset said, bowing her head. “I know it’s weird, but I’m trying my best. Twilight is too.”
Twilight Velvet stared into her coffee. “‘Weird.’ That’s one way to put it. This world is full of many strange and mysterious things, apparently.” Looking up to meet Sunset’s eyes, she added, “What do you think of my daughter?”
“She’s headstrong, stubborn, intelligent, funny, a bit naive, and cute as a button,” Sunset said without skipping a beat. If she had to undergo a parental interrogation, she might as well do it right.
“Mmm. I see.” Mrs. Velvet sipped at her coffee, then rubbed at her chin. “Do you love her?”
Sunset felt her cheeks color, but she kept a straight face. “I don’t know. I’ve never been in love before. But… maybe. At least, I think I’m on my way to that point.”
Mrs. Velvet set her coffee on the counter, and crossed her arms. “Good enough for me. Welcome to the family, Sunset. Feel free to make yourself at home.”
“That’s really not…” Sunset trailed off, then shook her head. “I mean, thank you. I’ll do my best not to abuse your hospitality.”
Mrs. Velvet smirked, then glanced over to the unfinished sandwich still on the counter. “I don’t suppose you need me to cut off the crust for you?”
Sunset turned back to the sandwich and resumed her work. “I can see where Twilight gets her sass.”
“I do my best.”
“Here you go, my special pancake surprise!”
Night Light passed out plates to the gaggle of sleepy teenagers sitting around the breakfast table.
“Ooh!” Pinkie Pie said, bouncing up and down in her seat impatiently. “What’s the surprise? I love surprises, especially when those surprises involve pancakes! Is it the smiley face? I bet it’s the smiley face!”
“I dunno,” Night Light said with a wide grin. “Why don’t you cut into it and find out.”
Twilight thumped her head against the table and groaned loudly. “Daaaaaad.”
Pinkie Pie eagerly sliced open the first pancake, which began to promptly ooze strawberry syrup. Followed by a blood curdling scream from Twilight’s father.
“My gods! That’s no mere pancake, it’s a living thing? What have I done? What horrific tragedy have I wrought upon this poor innocent flour? Nay, what have I been doing my entire life! Don’t look, children, avert your eyes! I’m sorry, I’ll never bake again, I swear!”
“Mmm, this is really good!” Pinkie Pie said in between mouthfuls of dripping pancake. “I love strawberries!”
The rest of the table burst into laughter as Twilight continued to slam her forehead down.
“Yes!” Night Light shouted, pumping his fist. “I have waited far too long for the chance to embarrass my teenaged daughter in front of all of her friends. My work here is done; I can retire in peace.”
Night Light bowed, then backed out of the room. “Enjoy your meal, ladies.”
Applejack chuckled, shaking her head. “Ain’t family grand?”
Rarity nodded, slicing her pancake into neat squares. “Don’t I know it. Tell me, Twilight, what exactly are our plans for the day?”
Twilight sighed, then pushed herself up from the table. “More driving, I’m afraid. It’s about two hours to my cousin’s beach house from here.”
“Do we have everything we need for a beach trip?” Applejack asked. “I mean, I packed my swimsuit and all, but didn’t grab no beach chairs or nothin’.”
“Actually, I was about to head to the store to pick up a bunch of supplies, snacks, et cetera. I made a list, but feel free to add anything you need to it,” Twilight said as she pulled a piece of paper from her pocket and passed it around.
"Ooh, we should totally get beer!" Rainbow Dash said, slamming her fist on the table for emphasis.
“Darling, you're not eighteen yet,” Rarity said, crossing her arms. “And I certainly won't be buying it for you.”
"Aww, come on!" Rainbow Dash whined. "AJ?"
"Nope."
"Sunset?"
Sunset grinned. "Not unless Twilight wants to. She’s the one throwing this party, after all."
Twilight smiled and leaned down to kiss Sunset on the cheek. "I think we'll pass on the alcohol. We should be able to have plenty of fun on our own."
"Bah." Rainbow Dash blew her bangs out of her eyes with a huff, pouting. "You guys are no fun."
"Anyway, will you come with me, Sunset?” Twilight asked. “Should take an hour at most."
"Sure, no problem."
Rarity stretched, yawning. “That's fine, take your time. If it’s alright, I could really stand to use your shower.”
There were murmurs of agreement from around the table, and Twilight and Sunset made to leave. Before she could make it out the door, however, her father whistled sharply and motioned for Twilight to come over.
“Here,” he said, leaning in close with a conspiratorial whisper and pressing something into her palm. “Just in case.”
Twilight stared down at the ribbon of condoms in her hand.
“Oh come on! It wasn’t even funny the first time!”
Doooon't stop, beliieeeeeving!
great chapter
and i really like that picture
Huh...well, looks like nothing seriously awkward ended up happening (save for what Shining and Night Light did to Twi).
That pic of young Twilight and Sunset, though. *hnnnnngggg*
This is the first time I've heard that term, and I'm rolling.
i.imgur.com/L58MQot.jpg
"Control vren55.exe is BSOD! vren55.exe is BSOD!"
"Why's that soul.driver? Why is that?"
"Adorabeetus! Control! Adorabeetus! Also, he realized that in a few years the one on the left dies."
"..."
"Control? CONTROL?!"
Yasss!
Night Light is the best dad ever... next to my dad.
No but I did suffer from tachycardia a while back when we had too much to do at work.
I'm enjoying this a lot. 10/10
Skittle bitches...
I will now use this term wherever acceptable.
this is me typing from the afterlife. cause of death: adorabeetus!!!
I expected my heart to be crushed, but instead I got adorabeetus. Also "skittle bitches."
The condom joke confuses me. Shining and Night Light know Twi is a lesbian, and even if she wasn't, it's all girls on the trip. Condoms are completely useless to her.
They're going to run into Sunset's dad, aren't they?
I'm afraid I have to disagree.
It is funny.
:::;D
6662257
I think it's just supposed to embarrass her and be a funny joke.
6662257 i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/933/731/207.png
Twilight's family is adorable and hilarious, as is the road trip montage. For the most part, anyway. RIP unlucky squirrel. The Sunlight is especially warm and fuzzy. I look forward to more.
Drinking age of 18? Guess EQD verse isn't 100% like America lol. Also I love Twilight's family. And that picture oh my gosh so cute!!!!
Every time I see this story update my mouse hovers over the first chapter. And I've done that like... at least 7 times. I think I should just read it.
Oh! The condoms are a joke! That was confusing me the whole chapter!
I also think that this is the best art so far in this story.
Sadly, I think I'm gonna have to be done with this now. This story has lost something since the beginning and reading it has become a chore rather than an enjoyment.
The beginning of the story had real depth to it. What happened to the original Sunset, Twilight meeting the people at Canterlot High, the youthful happiness of the diary entries contrasting with the weight of the present... It was fantastic. Every moment of every chapter kept me thoroughly engrossed with the characters and their development.
But starting around the chapter where she suddenly became best friends with everyone, it completely lost that. Suddenly Twilight and her family just did a complete personality one-eighty. There was no growth, no character development, it just felt like I was reading a story about a completely different Twilight, with a completely different family. It feels like everything that would have made this moment with Twilight and Sunset really emotional was just completely skipped over.
On a side note, tn hours is half-way across the country? Ten hours is barely longer than the trip from Atlanta to Virginia Beach. I'm assuming Canterlot is somewhere in Europe, then?
YAY FINALLY! I'VE BEEN WAITING ALL DAY! LEGIT!
The bit with the pancakes about killed me. That was awesome. :D:D
Man the story and the picture is getting better
6662331 Well, it's disappointing you feel that way, but you're entitled to your own opinion.
That being said, the shock and drama and tumultuous growth the characters experienced in the first third of the fic was due to them all being thrust into an unexpected and unprecedented situations, and the difficulties involved in dealing with that.
Now that the initial shock has died down, the characters are trying to regain a sense of normalcy and control over their lives. Imagine, if you will, that everything about this story and Twilight's situation was the same, except that Pony!Sunset just wasn't around. Back in chapter 2, she would have interrogated the humane 5 for information, they would have resisted, but ultimately still tried to befriend Twilight. Even without Sunset, Twilight probably would've warmed up to them, and eventually became friends. Without another Sunset around, her past trauma wouldn't even be much of a factor. Probably would've ended up with Rainbow Dash or something.
This part of the story is a lull, where the characters have grasped onto a form of happiness and are content to just relax and enjoy it. But, well.
The story is far from over.
Also, in my version of Earthquestria, Canterlot occupies about the same geographical location as Chicago, and it's about 10 hours from there to Baltimore, so hey.
6662177 Hold on to that feeelin'
I don't mind the skin colors either way, glad to see you stuck with the crazy hair colors though.
Even then, Applejack is the only one of the seven that has a normal human hair color.
6662331 While I disagree that reading has become a chore, I do think the last few chapters have been a bit weaker.
A major reason for this is the total lack of drama with Twilight and Sunset. The conflict of Twilight being in love with Sunset in a Replacement Goldfish scenario is gone, and Sunset's confusion over a romance with the human Twilight while she's best friends with Equestrian Twilight is non-existent. They're together, everyone is cool with it, they're cool with each other. And it happened in the space of a single chapter.
The problem is that a central concept of the story is Twilight's past with the human Sunset, and the intrigue on the reader's part is seeing how that will influence her interactions with the Equestrian Sunset. Without that influence, this is just another stock fluffy SunLight shipfic. Which is fine, I like shipping and I ship them in particular, but I started reading for the premise, and I don't want it to be discarded so hastily. I want them to get together, of course, but instead of rooting for them to overcome their personal dramas and issues so it can happen, its already happened and so far that's all there is to say about it.
However, I know firsthand that sometimes you need a breather chapter or two to build character and set up the next big part of the story, so maybe chaos and drama will ensue once they're at the beach.
Night Light has just proven that he is the best dad ever, and at the expense of Twilight being embarrassed. I'm really liking where this is going now, and everything just feels natural, but with some surprises thrown in for good measure that really make you think.
6662472
Think of this as a transition chapter.
That picture is adorable!
More SunLight shipping.
...
Ey!
I love this story way to much. My heart is going to give out soon. Hnngggg
The 18 year old drinking age threw me off a little but overall great chapter ^~^
That was the most adorable thing. And I might use Night Light's pancake joke on my friends after out next party.
That is some epic level trolling by Shining!
6662331 I pretty much agree with you. The only reason I don't voice my concerns is because there's actually no point in doing so: the story is already written.
I'm contining to read only for the slighest hope for the story to get better, even if I don't actually believe it will happen.
I am guessing that you live in Canada, UK, or some European country right? Still the pic was full out adorable. Gotta agree with Twilight though, what the heck would she need condoms for? F/F relationships are the only gender dou where condoms useless. Guess when you really want to make a certain joke, relavance be dammed you are gonna make that joke.
It seems "human Sunset's Dad" will not appear.
But I think this is author's trap.
Besides, pony Sunset and Twilight watched Star war together before.
So.., I think "pony Sunset" will meet "human Sunset's Dad"
And the sun at his back casting his face in an ominous shadow?
That picture is entirely to adorable.
Ok. Twilight's parents are awesome.
6662320 You've been commenting a lot lately, if you haven't started this yet D you should. It starts off REALLY strong, even if it loses that magic it's still a decent fic.
“Twilight? What are you…”Sunset blinked
1. Just forgot your spacing.
Okay I have to let this out after seeing that picture. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee! That is sooooo cute! And that was made all the better by how funny parts of this chapter were.
That picture is so adorable.
awesome chapter. I needed a good read tonight. thank you :)
That's probably because EQG coloration looks damn weird, especially if you imagine it in a serious story. I fully approve.
6662860 And won't that be an awkward moment?
6662320 Do eet...
Dads and brothers are the best
6662829
He lives in the Midwest, actually.
Must say really like the artwork for this chapter. Looks more fitting with color. Your artist dose an amazing job. Also the diary mentioned summer started right? So are we geting close to the entrys made around the accident?
Well, I'm all caught up now!
