Okay. I'll fix it. Anyhow, you liked it or not?


5745079
You liked it? People do not seem to like this, yet they do. I feel this was a failure now...so m7ch work for nothing...

This story was great!!!:pinkiehappy: I can totally see this fitting in with the show! :raritystarry:That is what makes it so good!:twilightsmile: And the fact it wasn't a romance thing between those 2. I really hate gay....

5745528
Thanks for the comment. The promt was about building new friendships, and I decided to based off the cover art take a different view at this one...

I didn't even read it. If the author doesn't care enough to spell check the title, why should I care? If you give this thing a proofreading then I suppose I'll have a look, but not until it seems like you have more interest in the story succeeding. The fact that it's eight hours after you said you'd fix it and the spelling error still remains in the title, my hopes aren't too high.

5747219
Hey, first off, I haven't even found the mentioned error, secondly, that is not the standard of the story
!

5747703 It's alright. Just change Cathing to Catching.

5747815 okay. Still, the story is not like this in hole.

5747820 I believe you. And don't worry, you'll find someone who can proofread for you. And if I ever have the time, I could do it.

5749495 Just asking maybe you could check out my story it is only on the first chapter though. :P And I doubt it is as good as this!!!:pinkiehappy:

5749510
Sure, or at least when I have time...

Okay. So, this story was good. Had a good idea. But, it had several noticeable errors. I still liked it though, I might even favorite it :pinkiehappy:

5749886
Thank you! You said there where errors. Could you help me locate and fix them maybe?

5751686 I can try, but i ain't got this site figure out yet so I can't like actually show you. I Can tell you what they are in each chapter... Tomorrow :derpytongue2 I'm hella tired and I got work in a few hours, but I'd love to help out anyway I can :pinkiehappy:

5751780
That's what I meant...poor English from my side, sorry! :P
And I can wait...

If I could mention a point of criticism.

I almost brought this point up back in Chapter 1 when it mentions that the pink filly's life was surely changed, or something along those lines, but I didn't think it would come up again. However, here it is again, so I'll talk about it.

It seems odd to me that Rainbow Dash would have known how she changed Pinkie's life. She was flying at breakneck speeds over a rock farm and could just make out a pink filly. The two never exchanged any words. On her return trip to Cloudsdale, Rainbow Dash stopped by the rock farm out of curiosity and spied on the party that Pinkie threw. Nobody in the Pie family saw the eavesdropper.

It really doesn't make any sense why RD would know the impact she had on Pinkie's life. The two never talked, and there was no way for her to draw that conclusion from observing in secret since she only observed for a few minutes. Now for this chapter. Recognizing her as the filly from years ago, sure. No problem there. Knowing she created that filly's happiness? That's kind of a stretch.

5779787
Well, I...I don't really know, actually. I guess it's something in the heart orr something

Despite my point of criticism in Chapter 2, I actually really enjoyed this. I found the decision to make the interludes individual chapters instead of combining them with the following chapters to be curious, but the story itself was actually quite intriguing. The "knowing she created happiness" thing is something that would just take a little revision to fix, and it wouldn't require any major changes to the story as a whole. So by writing good characters and giving Rainbow Dash a strong drive, you did a great job doing what you set out to do: Establish the reasoning behind their strong friendship. Have a like and a fav. :pinkiesmile::rainbowkiss:

Thank you very much. I will think over the thing you pointed out and I'm glad you still enjoyed the story.

Okay first off, I'd really recommend fixing up your story summary. The grammar is terrible in it, and I couldn't really understand what the story was even supposed to be about when reading it.
The summary is incredibly important as it's the main thing people look at to decide whether they want to read the story or not.

I also don't see why the prologue and epilogue have only speaking. That's not a good idea.

6112359 I agree with you until the end.
And then I say not necessarily.

7171101 it's very olkd piece, it would be better if I'd written it now

7171138 Yes, I've eritten a lot of stories since! And it was one of my worse stories
