(This story is a prequel to Birthday Built For Two, though it is not required for you to read that to understand this fic. Takes place between "The Times They Are A Changeling" and "To Where and Back Again". Proofread by Smity1038 on Deviant Art.)
Starlight accepts the fact that Sunburst is Flurry Heart's Crystaller, and that means he's going to act a bit odd at times. But for whatever reason, the stallion now seems to be acting even odder. A fact that puzzles Starlight to no end when she decides her trip to the Crystal Empire is an excellent opportunity to pay Sunburst an unexpected visit.
But before Starlight can even find the time to ask Sunburst about his behavior, she finds herself getting roped into something most unexpected, helping Sunburst foalsit Flurry Heart for a day.
Just how much trouble can one alicorn foal cause for two fully grown unicorns with no prior babysitting experience, quite a lot actually. But maybe the experience will give Starlight the answers she needs about Sunburst? Or perhaps Sunburst will slip up and tell her himself?
That was adorable.
I'm half tempted to just skip the Trixie accusation fic when it comes out, simply because of how much more trouble I had getting through the one about Shining and Thorax than I did the one dealing with Cart Before the Ponies.
Wow this is very well written and adorable. This is one of the best fics ive read all year. I really mean that, your an excellent writer keep up the good work
Oh, this is adorable!
8125231 I think StarBurst is high on the list of ships that really should be canon already. Up there with LyraBon (they're practically a couple in all but word), CheesePie, and Fancy PantsXFleur (there's nothing that officially says Fleur is Fancy Pants' wife).
The idea was good, though IMO, the resolution seemed a little forced to me. The conversation could have stood to be a bit longer.
Would be interesting if the Mane 6 would foalsit Flurry Heart?
8126959 All six of them at once?
8126962 Perfect opportunity for Flurry to get to spend some time with them.
8127570 But are all six at once really a valueable option? Why not just one at a time?
8127582 That too.
WHAT THATS IT NOOOOO ITS SO GOOD lemme guess THEY DIED AND SO DID I (5 minutes) SOMEBODY KILL ME NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW :( :( :( :(
Yes, yes, she would.
Do those even exist in canon?
BAM!
I love it
CheesePie?
Trix makes a good close friend for starlight sure.
I think these two should be canon. I felt like what I was reading could easily have been in the show. It was adorable and felt in character
Very good job.
NO DONT THINK THAT WAY PRECIOUS LITTLE SUNBURST
NOOOOO
WHEEZE
YES FLURRY BECOME OUR SHIPPING LEADER
It's precious that Flurry wanted to cheer them up even if she's naughty. Sunburst was adorable with his inferiority complex and the interaction with Starlight was sweet. I like you throwing in their shared passion for academics.
9779061 Yes, Flurry is a naughty foal. And I think part of it is her parents either don't know what she gets up to, or they're too busy to properly scold her, meaning she grows up spoiled.
Yeah, I knew this was probably Cadance’s meddling at work. Nice.
Sparlight forever!!!
But seriously, Starburst’s a nice ship. Just don’t expect me to 100% get behind it...
Nice plot!
And to be honest I would love to see how thorax been doing during his stay at the Crystal Empire before he became the king of the changeling
Changeling
And aww these two really like each other so much but they just don't know how to make the move
I'm sure she has the same ability as her mother but with all Power of Love
Trust me I babysit my niece and nephews it's never easy but I love them even they drive me crazy lol 😅
good job sunburst
Okay if I go to be honest I was not a big fan of that shipping between Starlight and Trixie I mean yeah they are very cute together as friends and that was it but that's just me
Aww this was a pretty sweet story and a pretty funny one as well and it looks like Sunburst really did care about Starlight so much but he doesn't know how to confess to her and what makes things difficult is now he is babysitting flurry heart and she is a very handful little kid luckily Starlight came to help him and with all the chaos and everything that kid is doing they finally calm her down and they had a little talk with each other about why is his behavior been weird lately ever since she came and he admitted that he was in love with her but he didn't know how she would react but apparently Starlight had that same feeling too and they both confessed how much they love each other and I think that is pretty sweet but it looks like Shining Armor and Cadence kind of figured they would help them too gave them a little boost which that was cool of them to do this was a pretty good story keep up the good work
