Stormbringer


I write romance with intimacies, not clop. To my readers, I quote The Bard: “We who prologue-like your humble patience pray, Gently to hear, kindly to judge, our play.” (Henry V)

Applejack has had a secret crush. Not only that, she has another secret know to only her family. When Twilight was nearly raped because an old classmate was acting on false rumors from school, Applejack comes to comfort her friend. In doing so, the apple brandy (not AJ’s cousin) AJ brought to calm Twilight down allows Twilight to confess her deepest secret to Starlight Glimmer. But Starlight Glimmer is a lavender Unicorn, not the orange Earth Pony there with her.

A comedy of errors will fulfill four pony’s dreams.

Secrets can not always be kept secret.

Oh, and can you believe Princess Twilight Sparkle knew those words?

The sex label if for implied, not actual graphic. However, the attempted rape scene could be disturbing to some.

These character tags confuse me...

It looks like the main characters, judging from the description, are Applejack and Twilight Sparkle. However I only see Apple Bloom, Twilight's parents, and Starlight. Although, now that I look more closely, there is a Mane 6 tag - so that would include both of them.

Also, the third sentence of the description came out of left field a bit. Is this a sequel?

Following up on a pun in the story.

Ahh. I'll go ahead and add it to my read later list. I don't usually see entire fics posted all at once like this. This takes a lot of discipline!

I like to write them all out, re read and polish them as a whole before publishing them. Thanks for caring enough to comment!

I have expect for discord to "bless" them, and it end up one of them grown a cock while other go into heat....

Bear is pleased with this story.
Bear praises the good ship SS Twijack.

Some formatting errors in this chapter where AJ talks to Starlight before leaving.

I can understand why it's downplayed, but this chapter still feels rushed and hand-waved away.

Sorry, my two TwiJack stories are meant to be rushed. They were more or less test beds for this ship. Future (if there are any) will be different. Thanks for caring enough to comment.

great story as usual Stormbringer. I enjoyed reading it. keep up the good work

anytime you have some great talent. I enjoy every story I read of yours

I'm so gonna get you for this Storm...You almost made me die at the beginning of the story.:rainbowlaugh:

Well, you asked for it so here it is! I loved it. Amazing work once again. Rarity made me die laughing and Granny in her row boat nearly made me do a spit-take. The love was awesome between two. Wonderful my friend. Wonderful. Can't wait for you to get the next Twi and AJ story cooking if you haven't already.

Wow. You managed to sell me a story where AJ is Apple Bloom's mother, in spite of me hating this concept with all my life. Congrats on that!
Overall, I loved this story and I'll happily add it to my favourites!
The only thing that bothers me is the comedy tag. I didn't feel like this story was meant to be seen as primarily funny (it didn't stop me from smiling like an idiot or laughing out loud, but that's not the point). Act four for example felt very serious, Applejack's... story (no spoiler!) was even kinda sad. Same can be said about the rape.
Since I don't pay that much attention to tags, it wasn't a problem for me, but some people look for a silly comedy, not a serious romance with funny parts, and may be thrown off.

To Shakespeare, love and romance was a comedy of errors. A lot of people don't realize what was funny in Shakespeare's day (suttle puns and innuendo) is so much different from what we think is funny. To quote Romeo and Juliet: He laughs at pains he hath not felt. In fact what is considered a tragedy today was a comedy then: Romeo and Juliet! (Come on! Between 2 kids they kill themselves 3 times!).

So yes it isn't a 3 stooges comedy, but it is funny enough to balance out the sad. Even Twilight's drunken rant balances out the attempted rape.

I must agree that things really balanced themselves out. If they weren't, it would probably wasn't as good. It is a happy story after all, so too much gloom would turn some readers down. I'm personally a fan of dark humour, that's why the description didn't stop me.
And I had no idea that Romeo an Juliet was considered a comedy in the past. Guess we learn something new everyday. :twilightsmile:

“Well hurry up already!” said Granny Smith floating by in a row boat. “There’s chores to be done! And don’t forget the sheets ya messed up, again.”

I know dreams can be weird, but.... :rainbowhuh:
