I'm Rainbow Dash. I'm the best flier in all of Equestria and the embodiment of awesome, yet I can't make up my mind about my feelings for this filly.

Well done. I particularly enjoyed how Spike and Rarity helped her come to her conclusion. It's a nice way of showing how even romantic problems can be made clearer with good friends to listen and give advice.

It's a shame you don't have a more Spike and Rarity centric story for me to read to compliment this one :pinkiesad2:

803009 That's what I was going for. Thanks for reading! :rainbowkiss:

I love me some Scootaloo. And this was an excellent take on their relationship.


Keep up the good work!

yeah! tis is a good idea, i cant wait for more chapters. keep it up!

I'm not usually a fan of Rarity x Spike, but I'm glad that you were able to interweave their relationship into the story. Good job bro, here is one of my moustaches :moustache:

MEIN GOTT. But, it's age progressed, so i'm ok with it.

Took her long enough to get her cutie mark.

:rainbowderp: what
what just happened?
:rainbowhuh: you know, I've seen people joke about how much Scoots likes Rainbow, but actually reading it seems weird. Mostly because I still see her as a little filly Cutie Mark Crusader. But seeing as she's all grown up, I wonder if Rainbow's actually going to go for it. guess I'll just have to read the next part.

Good ending and story overall, I just feel like it was kinda rushed at the very end. Reading it, I thought Scootaloo was still a bit mad at RD, but as soon as she mentions where to go for the date, she's all smiles.
So I guess my only critique would be to just take a few more sentences to keep the rushed feeling away. It doesn't even have to be very many. Maybe even like five sentences about the filly-fooler comment and a quick apology would have been perfect. Otherwise, yet another awesome short story of yours! Keep it up!:twilightblush::pinkiehappy:

804687 My headcanon is that Spike is about 5 years younger than Twilight. It is canon that Spike is as old as the Mane 6's cutie marks (he was hatched by the same event that directly/indirectly gave the 6 their butt tattoos). I also assume Rarity is a older than Twilight (the 6 don't have to be born within a year of each other). This gives us an age gap of 5-6 years which becomes more insignificant the older they become (6 years becomes a smaller percentage of their lifespan as they age). So, plausible.

Yeah I agree. Scootaloo's transition from being mad at Dash to smiling bigger than this --> :pinkiehappy: - almost felt 180.

But yeah, good short story.
Also, thanks to ScootaDash fics like this, I can't watch Sleepless in Ponyville without thinking Scootaloo as the new Spike.:rainbowderp:

Redo it with her Canon Cutie Mark since she has it now

It was good until the end. Scootaloo cheered up pretty quickly which bugged me. It felt rushed

A bit rushed, but otherwise pretty good.

STRIFE!!!

-ABJURE
-AGGRIEVE
-ABSCOND

Nice Abscond!

Well crafted story, yet it feels like this one is not finished. Rainbow received advice from Rarity to go figure out her feelings with Scoots, and to give her a shot. Rainbow gave Scoots shot at date in Canterlot. Story just falls flat there with no ending or resolution to what Rainbow's feelings are.

I pondered. Could it really be that simple? Scootaloo had admired me for as long as I could remember, and if there was one thing I liked, it was being admired. “Well, yeah, I do like her.”

Seems like a solid foundation for a relationship…. Yikes.
