Living Madness


Its either this or star in porn. You all know whats worse.

T

Fluttershy has a crush on the first and only human in Equestria. Nothing inherently wrong with that.

Only problem is it's her teacher.

Faced with this conundrum can Fluttershy gain the courage to say how she truly feels to the man she loves, or will she succumb to her own self defeating nature.

And exactly what does Gilda have to gain from this?

:rainbowkiss:
Haven't read a Fluttershy fic in an eon.

Gilda the matchmaker?

Sure, I'll see where this goes.

don't know why but I have a feeling this story will make my top ten list....heres hoping the feeling is warranted best of luck

This story seems interesting. A teacher/student romance and an anthro fic dedicated to Fluttershy and a human. I don't see many fics like this. I'm curious to see how Shy would overcome her shyness and how Gilda would help/sabotage her romance with Alex. This story will get a fav and a like from me. I hope the next chapter comes soon.

Sigh... I honestly wish people would comment why they disliked my story instead of just leaving me in the dark. Really it just benefits nobody.

Thanks for those who did comment though, every little helps.

5740253 preaching to the converted bro.:eeyup:

5740253 No kidding.

Example of constructive criticism (imho): "It's pretty good, but this chapter felt a little too fast-paced. Like everyone was running and talking or something. There's also a bit of inconsistency with the chapter afterwards as well, right at this point (insert chapter segment here)."

Example of non-constructive criticism: "This chapter SUCKED, and you should feel bad! Stop writing terribad plots, and gtfo the website!"


Not enough people take the time to write decent criticism, sadly.

A Classic tale, a student that falls for the teacher, not often does that end well.

You have my attention. Fave and a like.

Well im always up for a good Human x Anthro Fluttershy story. Personally I think there isn't enough of them. Your writing style seems perfectly fine to me as well as the pacing. Plus I love Alex's personality and think he and Shy will be perfect together when you get to that point.

Nice story tho found a few errors:

“But it’s not that easy, he’s a teacher and I’m his student and he’s so much better than I am. I’m just a silly little filly, he doesn’t even notice me…not that blame him.”

^Think you left out an "I" here

Fluttershy giggled again as the ended the hug.

^they

“I encourage your voice and your opinion in this class, just like I do very ponies here.”

^Maybe something like "just like I do with every pony here" tho I think he should use everyone as they're not all ponies.

But with the constant border disputes with the minotaurs and other monstrous creatures from the bad lands that made anything this pony land had seem downright laughable by comparison they needed storng and able griffons wherever they could have them.

^strong, also seem like a run on sentence may wanna see bount that

5742863 Oh, cheers will fix that shortly.

Never had she seen him raise his voice, never shame or demine any pony even at outbursts such as these

I feel like you wanted to use "undermine" or "demoralize".

As long as she knew where to ask that was.

As long as she knew "what" to ask, that was.

There were quite a few places that needed commas.

5747882

I think that's supposed to be "demean"

GOLLY GOOD CO-OPERATION!!!!!

Glad to see another chapter of this story. Keep up the good job.

Oh no! Gilda has a conscience

New chapter! :yay:

With class resuming, I have some mistakes/suggestions to present from your draft :derpytongue2:

you defiantly have an knack for interpreting the writers motives and thoughts.

No, bad author, it's "definitely" jeez, where did you get your word definitions from?

Mr Dixon
Mr Dixson

You seem to keep jumping between these two names, I'd suggest deciding on one and keeping it consistent in writing.

Does ever pony here have earmuffs on,

"every", also consider a question mark where you placed a comma, even if it is rhetorical.

Had Fluttershy once again misjudged Gilda,

here too, with the question mark I mean

come the end of next week he'll be all you and don't go yellin’ to no pony about you helping me,

yours

an high pitched “Epp” from the mare.

"a", also, 'Eep' is more appropriate as it is the vowel sound that is extended

that was the cry of beaten down mare,

cry of 'a' beaten down mare

Since you did declare partial inebriation as well, I shall forgive you for these, your oversights. :twilightsmile:
This time

another excellent chapter, looking forward to more




stayclassy:moustache:

She physically slapped herself across the beak, what the buck was that! She were supposed to use this filly, not play buckin’ matchmaker. She had her by the wings she was hers for the taking, buck was she going soft?

And that's the power of Fluttershy. Resistance is futile

Poor guy, he's got it rough.

“You see, I’m currently under review after last year, well actually its more of an... investigation.”

Well that's gonna complicate things. Can't even let them get a hint of something untowards with him and his students. Gilda's got her work cut out for her

This chapter was awesome. We learn that Dixon had a difficult life yet has a passion for teaching and a platonic (for now) liking towards Shy. Gilda actually develops a growing respect for Dixon. Lastly Spitfire's inclusion as a teacher and her teasing friendship with him was entertaining to watch. Despite her short appearance, it stole the show for me. Thanks for the chapter. Hope the next one comes soon.

Sportier is interested in him! Hmmm, nice.

You keep alternating between calling him Dixon and calling him Alex.

6200451 its intentional, I wanted people to remember the name more easily. As the social standing of the school means that his formal last name and first name will often swap, so if the incluton of an uncannon character comes in (which it probably will depending on things) the reader doesn't become confused.

This better be a fluttershy romance story and not a spitfire one!

It's nice to see this story again. I got to say that I didn't expected Dixon to have connections to Spitfire's family, but I liked that he's willing to stand up for her and stand up against an ex-Guard for the sake of being her friend. I also liked the teasing that Spitfire did with him, but e guy seems to be oblivious that she possibly has feelings for him. The tidbit with the girls also going to the club was entertaining and it was a nice way to save Dixon from being excluded from the party by those racist bouncers. Anyway, thanks for the entertaining chapter. Hope to see the next chapter soon. BTW, you might want to have a proofreader as there are a few spelling mistakes and chopped sentences.

Meh, sure they have been friends for quite awhile, but Spitfire just seems like a whole bag of issues, hanging around her just seems more trouble than it's Worth.

It has definitely been quite awhile since I've read this story. It did not disappointed.

That being said I would like to offer my services as an editor.

An image of a pink mane made its way to the forefront of his mind again and he shook his head, more violently this time.

If it weren't for this line, I would have been very pissed upset with this chapter, I thought tho was a human x fluttershy fic, not human x spitfire fic.

Glad to see an update though, some typos too.

"It's nice to see you again, turely."

truly

"Your an ass. I know you did this to spite me, didn't you? You knew I was going to where black and you did it anyway.”

Wear

"You look pale Flamy, I think you’re suffering from a lack of vitamin me."

Some seem a bit agitated because the connection between fluttershy Dixy-cups isn't obvious yet:rainbowlaugh:; it isn't supposed to be:rainbowwild:. I personally thought it was nice that you put together some deeper character development. Bring on the complications:yay:.

With that in mind, more backstory for Alestache and Sizzlespit would have been welcome beforehand (maybe as a flashback at the header, or a chapter in between), as the relationship between the two was the primary focus of this chapter:twilightsheepish:. I get the feeling that it might come later though.:raritywink:

"I know you and my lady are again close and renewed friends once more. But myself and the staff...Perhaps, we did not make it clear last time...
...Though it was not as catatonic as most partings are, it left my lady in a terribly misanthropic state..."
