I wrote some stories for you. I hope you enjoy them.

Yes I do realize that I wrote a melodramatic, mystical-sounding synopsis for what's pretty much a down-to-earth drama, and no, I'm not sorry.

This story takes place somewhere between Hurricane Fluttershy and Trixie's Magic Bit by Applejinx. It won't lean too heavily on the latter, but I recommend reading Jinx's nonsense anyway for the simple reason that it's so good.

My story here is 50% desire to let a character out of my head and onto the page using the sexiest background pony in the show as a conduit, and 50% love letter to Applejinx and his work. Oh yeah, and maybe I can sneak in an extra 30% or so that's about pegasus culture. I might do a sequel or something that's about unicorns.

gahahaha TMB's cover picture is silly

Just a nice little scene to let Chaser and Flitter have a sisterly moment together. This was inspired by some of the more important sunsets I've experienced in my life as well as some of the sunsets I've experienced from aboard airplanes. My heart aches to experience something like Flitter is getting to, here. I hope my love for this scene comes out in the writing.

Up until this point, the story has almost entirely stood on its own, so I guess it's good that I got a chance to draw y'all in before bringing out stuff that's odd without background info. :/

Trixie calls Twilight "mistress." Just take my word for it.

I hope to God I get a chance to write about Chaser givin' it to a boy pegasus. The scenario is so in-universe kinky it's giving me chills. Happy chills, though.

'Trixie calls Twilight "mistress." Just take my word for it.'

Just for that, I'm giving this a try.

:ajbemused: >mine countenance whereupon complaints about spacing

I fought with myself long and hard about this. I spaced it out and stared at it, undid the spacing and stared at it more, and just agonized over the decision.

It's already got double line spacing; have you ever read a book with those extra spaces between paragraphs? Would your English teacher appreciate extra spaces between paragraphs?

The thing is, this isn't necessarily the only way or the most popular way to do it, but it's a *proper* way to do it and I hate having to put HUGE spaces to differentiate scene breaks from normal paragraph breaks. I also hate how hugely spaced out dialogue tends to get.

I'm sticking with the call that I made for now. Thanks for prompting me to do more soul-searching about it, by the way. Thanks a freakin' ton.

I do recommend that you throw in the extra spacing, as it's more comfortable when reading on a computer screen.

Might also encourage more folks to give your story a try, which they totally should. :pinkiehappy:

Whichever you run with, try not to fret over it so much. :twilightsmile:

Just chiming in, books don't have spacing between paragraphs because they need to conserve paper. Digital writing doesn't have that disadvantage - furthur, it's a lot wider and taller than a book's page, meaning there's risks of being a wall of text. Combined with the fact that the screen glows, it means it's much harsher on the eyes than a book or essay. The best policy is to space it out and give it plenty of room to breath,

Feel free to delete this comment btw.

Damn if that ain't a voice of authority. Point taken--no point in being "proper" if people have legitimate reason for liking the other way. I'll get about spacing it today.

You win. For now. :trixieshiftleft:

not bad...not bad at all i give u 12 out of 10 :raritystarry:

This chapter is porn. I can't even lie about that.

So, enjoy it, I guess.

Next chapter I'll TRY to move to conflict instead of just slice-of-life all the time like this chapter was...

Please change the artwork associated with this story. The artist who drew it would not appreciate it being associated with clop.

Certainly. I will as soon as I'm at my computer and on a wifi connection.

Sorry for any offense I caused.

Oh damn! :pinkiegasp: Tactical!Rainboom I am glad I decided to check out other work you have done. This is just brilliant so far! Just started reading it so I will let'cha know what I think in the end. :twistnerd:

:pinkiesmile: I dunno what your talkin' bout! :pinkiehappy: (being silly)

:raritystarry: The scene of Flitter and Cloudchaser sharing a special moment together was great. Now I really want to know where this ends up going.

My heart just broke. Simply amazing. Great job

Wait, what? Breasts?
