Dustin and Dust Off… *snort*

9126860 Destined for the stars!

Next two are going to be Dustat and Dustother?

Anyone for baseball?

And, the chapter and story is completed, Only another 60 years before the maybay message might just be picked up and possibly acted on, eventually?

Thanks for the ride.

9126860 Dustined for the stars!

Fixed that for you!

9127281 Heh, the main reason for the name was because it was similar to Dustin's (which seems to be a tradition in the household for mares and their fillies) and because dustoff can mean to takeoff (particularly in the FSP verse, where McCaffrey used it a fair bit).

Hehe, just keeping busy.

"WAKE UP! WAKE UP!" a filly with blue coat and a darker blue mane said, pronking into the room. A swirling ring of stars adorned each of her flanks.

oh, reminded me of this silly fan-comic:

9128022 Well, I'm sure Twilight Velvet and Night Light hoped to not have a repeat, while completely enjoying actually having one.

I was NOT expecting milf to give the big smooch. Or for both of them to have their own big smooches at the same time. @_@

9273736 Ah! Have you forgotten how adventurous Twilight Velvet is (in canon even)?

9273862
I didn't expect it to be taken that way.

Aww, this ending was so cute
Let's hope they have a big, happy family. Bits to sustain all those foals shouldn't be a problem when 60% of the country's royalty is family, 2/3 of that having your DNA

Poor naughty trio though, trying to have an active sex life with plenty young in house. That's a fool's errand if I ever saw one.

9294038 A fool's errand, but one they will pursue with dogged determination.

Well this was a tidy little story. A bit short for my tastes, but they can't all be epics, eh? You've a nice talent for these science fiction stories, I hope to see more of them in the future.

9824419 Thanks! It was a fun one to write. The commissioner actually had no idea about Anne McCaffrey's stuff until I put it forward as a good basis for HiE.

Just found this story today and finished it. I have to say, very good job and well paced for the style of story that it is! Again, good job and maybe think of a sequel if possible.

9963935 Glad you liked it! There are no plans at this point to write a sequel, however.

Aw, ok then, I am reading several of your other stories so that's fine!

Delightful stuff... though I would've liked to see Kiera in the finale. Still, a fascinating take on the "the fk is wrong with that planet?" school of HiE. Thank you for it.

Another great story from you! Thanks!

Also, neat trick with Equus solar system design.
