Cute story!

Hi there! I'm reviewing this as a candidate for the Everfree Northwest community choice awards!

Your other two reviewers have stated it before: cute! It's an interesting glimpse into how Applejack and Pinkie became friends. Nice and simple, and I kinda like the idea that AJ was initially a bit more of a hard case before Pinkie lightened up. I guess the one problem I have is that it doesn't have much of a conflict, but not every tale needs high stakes to be good.

Good luck in the contest!

5877705 Thank you for reading and reviewing my story! I'm glad that you enjoyed reading it. As for the problem that you brought up, the lack of conflict, I like doing simple and fun stories that sometimes are more about interactions between characters than having complex plotlines. I mean, I have one story that's nothing by letters.

Thanks for reading and the luck!

(On a slightly related note, I'm seeing the band who helped inspire this fic tonight!)
