After graduating first in his class at a hair styling academy, Zephyr Breeze is more confident than ever that he can win over Rainbow Dash. Can her human friend help her find a solution to get the message across to the stubborn stallion?
7987721 where was it that this was originally posted at? I'll admit it's nothing groundbreaking, but that hasn't kept it from being enjoyable for a semi-plotless Dash & Human story. Technical side of the writing also seems to be quite strong, there weren't really any issues or typos that got my attention during the current set of released chapters.
8085390 I started writing it on /mlp/ last summer and put it in a pastebin. Someone recommended that I post it here so I've been reformatting, correcting mistakes, and making minor adjustments. It almost takes as long as writing from scratch so that's why I can't dump the whole story. Glad you like it.
8085586 Ah, a pastebin and /mlp/, two reasons why a search of various items did not really return and results, as I really don't pay either of those sites a visit.
And I understand on the editing, sometimes it's easier to just start with a blank page knowing what you want to write rather than edit. You're doing a solid job on it, so keep it up. I also wouldn't recommend dumping the entire story anyways, a chapter every X days/weeks really works out better in your favor, more exposure and what have you that way. I know I pretty much called the story simple, but I am looking forward to what you plan to do with things (and if the plot does pick up, or remain mostly fluff with stalker pone being the main conflict).
I also think that once this story is finished and fully posted, I'll be keeping an eye out to see if you come up with more stories. Hope you have a good evening.
The thought was endearing and sobering at the same time; you can’t help but feel a bit out of your league.
It's kind of funny, this sort of thinking. People assume too much - someone is only "out of your league" if they're actively dissing your attempts by claiming such... and then it's only in their heads, really (and I'd argue you're better off without this person, unless you really have that messiah hard-on and feel like 'saving' this person from 'evil').
In many cases, even if the person in question "could have anything they wanted", they don't have a clue that this is what they wanted, and by the time they do - they want it from you. It's often a case of being in the right place at the right time. "League" only plays into it if you want it to play into it - or where there's actual merit to it, like power or wealth (with understandable concerns about not squandering or otherwise diluting it) - and even then, if you decide not to care, that's it for that.
What I'm really trying to say is - the bar isn't as high as you think it is, it's only in your head. Also... the higher the imagined bar, the better your chances, because there's a good chance others are as intimidated as you are to give it a shot. ;]

A cute, fun little chapter. Love the end of the chapter.
