727801 Love the little Dune references Some interesting ideas on Celestia there in all that too
727807 It'll likely get to EAD eventually, I haven't sent it in to them because I haven't talked with the author about it, but if he has no objections I'll likely submit it to them.
727812 I'm not quite sure where you're getting your hearsay, however, what you seem to be describing sound more like the problems with inbreeding rather than a polygamous lifestyle. E. Sapiens don't have a promiscuous (or polyamorous) lifestyle (which might increase the rate of STDs) just a polygamous one where a single stallion might take multiple long-term mates; in which case there would be little more risk of STDs than there would be in a monogamous relationship.
727897 There's little hints that he likely has. Dash seems to take "no" as more of a challenge than anything, but won't force Lero into a situation he doesn't want to be in; they're deeply in love why would she?
728122 Actually.... it does have the sex tag on it but I'm glad that you gave it a shot and enjoyed it so much.
728538 I can't say how it might be with Dash, but I can attest to its awesomeness, but would suggest having a well anchored bar and/or high friction pads on the bottom or it can be dangerous.
729056 It escaped ponibooru a long time ago, but if this is your first time seeing it since ponibooru, then everything past Ch2 will be new material for you ENJOY
729152 Oh horseapples... I think I'd faint at that many comments on my story, and that's if it ever did reach that point. Yikes. You really should offer your services as a story host, for posting stories that other people wrote but wish to remain anonymous, you're like their ghost writer, or rather their ghost author, the middleman.
Charming date... kind hope for more on the social aspect really. The clop isn't something that I find ultimately enthralling, but it seems too important from the social standpoint to just skip. Now to wonder about deeper customs, and if Shining Armor and Cadance's wedding was uniquely monogamous from this story's standpoint or not.
Wow, again, the world building is just astounding. There are not enough 'Bravo's' and moustaches in the world to say how impressed I am with this story.
Edit: Hmmm, something I thought of; I wonder what would happen if someone did confront Rainbow, Twilight, and Lero. Who would step up in the defence of the other's honour. Or would they start arguing about who gets the rights to thrash the poor unsuspecting pony?
729418 I only host this for the author because I love the story so much. I read through this story time and time again almost to the point of memorization and I wanted it to be shared with as many readers as possible so that everypony could enjoy it as much as I did. When it hit the Featured Box today I literally squeed and had to remind myself that it wasn't actually *my* story, but I was just so happy that it would get out to even more people and be loved just that much more.
729287 You may have to be patient and wait awhile for the next chapter, but it's wonderful to see so many ponies ravenous to read the continuation of this tale.
Ooh! Ooh! Pick me pick me! I found an error! "He gave her a level look. “Everything at the Bale is made from hay. Even the drinks.”
Line parsing: It should read "He gave her a level look. “Everything at the Bale is made from hay. Even the drinks.”" With drinks on the same line as everything else, instead of off all lonely on its own! Don't make drinks all lonely, it gets all sad when left out in the cold.
Excellently written, though. I like it. Referencing the repetitive world of fantasy fiction probably wasn't the best, since this work reeks of tropes, but I forgive it for the excellent world-building. Thumbs up once more.
729695 Thank you for the catch. It has now been fixed When you're trying to reformat a story from pastebin to FiMFiction sometimes little things escape notice.
Now I'm going to bed, I expect another 180 notifications when I wake up everypony Spread the word and bring others into this wonderful story.
Well, she thought, as long as my friends are happy, everyone else can just go jump down a well.
HA! That's so Dash...
Please express my love for this to the author. It's rare to see a fic that actually focuses on the society of the ponies as a whole, and their culture. And on top of that one that actually does it well...
Yeah, I feel kinda sad that the author refuses to take credit for this work. Hey, we won't judge you buddy!
729333 My shower/bath DOES have a bar in it that seems integrated into the wall for it. The pads on the bottom seem to have worn out long before I moved in. Where can I find more to adhere to the bottom of the bath? It would be really bad if a girl fell and died in my bath while doin her and I would be left to awkwardly explain to both our parents HOW she died. Same awkwardness would apply if I smashed my head open and died in my own bath. Even more if she leaves without telling anyone and my (female) apartment mate found me due to me stinkin up the place.
729152 Only 180!? WE HAVE BEEN SLIPPING! `~` Amazingly amazing chapter is amazing. Also, I'm liking this chapter for some reason. It's just... well... amazing. Did I mention this chapter is freaking amazing? If I didn't, It's amazing. Like... Oh My Amazing.
hmm, wearing a nice suit, if i was gonna go on a date with a species that is always naked and I had to wear clothes, i'd dress like Ezio Auditore, how would they know and how often would you get the chance to wear those awesome clothes
731295 From what I recall of the last chapter, Rainbow is still the "lead" mare. Twi was trying to join their herd.
And I have to echo the sentiments of so many others - this is a fascinating take on courtship traditions, and an almost unbearably sweet story to boot.
Wow, I hope this story at least gets to a chapter 15, seriously. This is just waaaaay too good, it's the first time I've read a clopfic that at the same time isn't entirely a clopfic.
Wow, um... is good? I average 12.5k words an hour on a good story with that number dropping the better the story is. Chapters 2-8 took me 7h, I am both depressed and excited. Oh, and stop calling this a Clop Fic! This is CLEARLY a Romantic Love Story that happens to be explicit!
730600 Oh, I was just pointing out a reference to you in the story sir. Sorry to interrupt your bad assery. How are the great great great great grand kids? Are Little Pip and Velvet Remedy among them?
Chapter 8 is up Now to wade through all of the comments from the 6 hours I was away (seriously you guys I came back to 180 notifications )
Another chapter already? Oh nameless author, you're just too kind to us.
*Squee*
When we can expect next chapter? it's great story.
I had fun. Still didn't notice any mistakes. Keep up the good work!

plz sir/madam mat i have some more. love the story
Oh, this is so fantastic it makes my sides hurt. I'm laughing the entire time. I love your off the wall jokes.
If I could favorite and like this again, I would
I cannot tell you how much I love this story.
It is too awesome to put into words
Bet Fluttershy feels the same way about Rainbow as Rainbow does about 'Shy.

You're building up to something, aren't you? Aren't you? Love the world building in this.
I was going to sleep when i finished the last chapter, but then i see a new chapter be posted. SCREW SLEEP I GOT A NEW CHAPTER TO READ!

729523 Man O man I wish I could know that feeling, but my writing sucks. That, and I'm painfully slow.
I am LOVING this story!! And Chapter 8 was uploaded right when I finished 7! And I can't wait to read how the rest of the evening goes.

Don't worry there's somewhere around a 0.00 (repeating of course) percent chance of RD no longer being the main focus of the story
Well, she thought, as long as my friends are happy, everyone else can just go jump down a well.
HA! That's so Dash...

Im going to be tired for work and school tomorrow but reading this is totally worth it

If you stop writing this I may have to harm you physically
I was wondering abou Rarity and Fluttershy's reaction. Bravo!
“Oh, it makes me feel all warm just being in the same room with that kind of happiness.”
I know that feel, Fluttershy.
I was JUST about to sleep, you sir just stole 30 minutes of my sleep...AND IT WAS WORTH IT!!!
Blarg! I want MOAR! NAO! This is AWESOME!
729152
Only 180!?
WE HAVE BEEN SLIPPING!
`~`
Amazingly amazing chapter is amazing.
Also, I'm liking this chapter for some reason. It's just... well... amazing.
Did I mention this chapter is freaking amazing? If I didn't, It's amazing. Like... Oh My Amazing.
hmm, wearing a nice suit, if i was gonna go on a date with a species that is always naked and I had to wear clothes, i'd dress like Ezio Auditore, how would they know and how often would you get the chance to wear those awesome clothes
"We’re happy, and our friends are happy for us. That’s pretty much all that matters, right?"
.... and then everything goes downhill really REALLY fast.....
This story is so good, now we just need Lyra and Fluttershy to join them and we'll have the dream herd
I guess a human Massure in Ponyville would be a big deal.
I wonder if Celestia or Luna make trips to experience the touch of a human hand.
Something bad is about to go down, isn't it? I can't feel like something bigger is going to happen later.
Don't know if it been discussed, but what is the timeline of the story compared to the series?
730508 Interpret as you wish.
Ah this story never fails to make my happy. The author manages to comunicate the feelings with ease and it's always a pleasure to read.
I can only hope that all these positive comments spur on the author to write more (and more often!).
I can tell the author has been setting up for a confrontation with a bigot... I wonder when this happens...
So is rainbow still the main mare in the relationship? Or is twilight considered an equal part now?
"Epic" does not suffice to describe this story.
Have a thumbs up and congratulate the author from me.

i love the idea with the little roleplaying, it will be great to read it happening
If Lyra joins this herd then they should all be called Lero's angels. They are all deadly ponies you would not want to cross.
MOAR POLYGAMY!
I hope the phrase "Welcome to the herd" is used
one word to descibe this story

Read this on pastebin yesterday.
