Shining Armour has put on a few pounds during his paternity leave, and he needs to go on a strict diet so he doesn't go back to Canterlot a blob!
How will his wife support him with that...?


A short one this time, but it was done as an entry for a writing contest on a Discord server I'm part of!

Somehow I won, I have no idea how

Sorry for being so short this time, but I hope you enjoy anyway!

Chapters (1)
Comments ( 21 )

You should allow voting, I wanna upvote this story I totally haven't read because I totally didn't enter the contest as well!

8140450 Upvoting is on, I thought :rainbowhuh:

And of course you didn't enter, why would you ever even think of it? :raritywink:

Nice switcheroo there. These two make a cute couple.

Well, this is an investing read.

Well this was a good read, I still hope to see more of your work again.

Love to see a sequel to this flurry Heart boucning on her momma's tummy and then huggng it before she falling asleep.
Sure any pony see this would be going."DDAAAAAAAAWWWWW!!"

Good thing he wasn't at Restaurant Row, then.

8140466 Glad you liked that! I agree, I love their relationship :rainbowkiss:

8140485 I'll take that as a compliment :raritywink:

8140489 Thanks! I'll get more out when I can~

8140662 Omg, I need to keep that in mind :rainbowkiss:

8140743 Indeed! Unless he's called to Manehattan... :trollestia:

8141346 Yes, it is a compliment. This is really good.

Enjoyable read :trollestia:
However, remember to start paragraph wheneversomeone new starts speaking. That way you'll avoid those blocks of text and dialogue where one can get lost easily.

Good stuff mate.

8141655 I'm very certain I did that :rainbowhuh: Where did you spot this?

8142229 No, you haven't, at least not in the sense of having the paragraphs separated. What I have in mind is this:

"Something wrong Shiny?" She asked as the larger stallion rolled into his side of the bed, "You look upset."
Shining grunted as he shuffled beneath the covers and rolled onto his side to face her. "I'm huge, Cadence. Why didn't you say anything?"
"I'm sorry hon," Cadence said softly, setting a bookmark in her book before closing it and setting it on the bedside table, "I didn't want to upset you. you know you can be pretty stubborn."
"I know, but-"
"Plus, you get the cutest look on your face when the baker in town shows up," She went on, a teasing smirk on her face, "Or when Pinkie Pie appears with a cartload of goodies. Or when you always volunteer to try the chef's new recipes!"
Shining's white face burned bright red with embarrassment. "Okay, I get it..."
"S-sorry, sorry," she giggled, fixing him with a warm smile, "I suppose you want to go on a diet, hm?"
"I have to," he said with a nod, "I'm expected back in Canterlot in a few months, and I have to get back in shape before I leave. What would the other guards say if they saw me like this? What would Princess Celestia say? What would Twily say?" He frowned at the thought of his little sister teasing him for being so large.
"Okay, I get it," Cadence chuckled and snuggled up to him, "but it's not all bad though. You've been much more relaxed, and...you're quite a warm, cuddly snowball~" she giggled.

It should be, according to FIMFic rules, formated like this (it's could vary a little at some points though):

8142241 Ah, I see your point :rainbowderp: I figured keeping it grouped together would mean less confusion
Thanks for the feedback, I'll keep that in mind

It may have been short, but it was still good. :3
And I'm with Diablo, I think this could use a sequel. :)

8147359 Thanks! I may do a sequel in the future~ :raritywink:

Read this while listening to Weird Al's "Grapefruit Diet" and a few other food songs by him.

Sounds like a good soundtrack :ajsmug:

The other songs were Taco Grande, The White Stuff which is about Oreo cookies, Addicted to Spuds is about potatoes and anything made out of them.
