This story is a sequel to Flounce!


Flash Sentry doesn't know when Pinkie Pie became his best friend, but nothing is ever certain whenever she's around. The only thing he can expect is that her company is always a bright spot in a dull world, and that might be enough for him.

A spiritual sequel to Flounce!, and commissioned by ShortSkirtsandExplosions

and a lot of the other girls varied in their opinion of him from 'air-headed guitar-bro' to 'pretty boy with no sense', or 'nice, I suppose'.

I love how you can tell exactly who said each of those just by the way they're worded.

"Yes, yes, yes!" cheered Floyd,

And this totally made my day.

All told, the dialogue was insanely on point and I grinned like an idiot reading this. Thanks, Props!

Also, is that a secret link I see?

This here was really fun! im starting to quite like this Pairing, and really, things like this are part of why i enjoy pinkie.

"Sorry. I just get excited about this stuff, you know? Knowing that I'll never try everything isn't sad, to me. It's exhilarating! If I can't ever try everything, that means there's no room for regrets or second-guesses, only the now. The moment.”

that kind of thought puts a smile on my face.

> Math

Ok, let's fukin do this. If you choose 2 flavors, and 1 of everything else (like the example that Pinkie gives), you'll get

36C2*20*8*8 = 806, 400
36C3*20*8*8 = 9, 139, 200 (if you choose 3 flavors of ice cream)

This is nowhere near the deck of cards thing. It's a lot, but relatively miniscule.

Yay math.



Also, nice story my dude. Cute, and had a really funny end. Now I also wanna see FArts of those dresses that Pinkie had on.

This was really enjoyable. I never expected to ship this pairing, but now I do! :pinkiehappy:

Ah, but you can add a third flavor, or a fourth, and so on. Pinkie mentions that. So, you can have every combination possible with 36 flavors.

8823308
Alrighty then, let's do more math.

http://m.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=sum+from+n%3D1+to+36+of+%2836+choose+n%29+*+20+*+8+*+8

Alright, you good, kinda. It's not 68 billion, but 88 trillion*. Nice, big brain math you've got here.


*Edit: also still nowhere near the deck of cards analogy. Completely different levels of massive.

What a perfect ending! It leaves the perfect opening opening for an M-rated sequel :P

If only some brave souls would dare pick up from here...

Anywho! Thanks for the fun story! It was definitely a treat. Maybe not mortality-flavored ice cream, but definitely a treat of some sort.

Oh, it's in there somewhere.

8823332 68 billion is 2^36, which is the number of possible flavor combinations assuming no flavor limit and no other toppings.

8823556
Sure, but when you add in the toppings and drizzles and stuff, you get back the same 88 trillion* that I got using the summation and choose functions. It's the same answer, just got in a different way.

* 236x20x8x8

8823588
Yeah, I didn't take into account the toppings as part of my equation, and you're spot-on with the result being way larger. Thanks for checking the math, though!

MOAR!!

I favorited it, which means you must give us MOAR!! >=)

8823606
dude imagine going to an ice cream shop and asking for 36 scoops of ice cream at once LMAO

That's kinda why I kept it to 2 and 3 flavors in my original comment, but yeah, I got ya dude.

Great stuff, from Pinkie having far too much fun with Flash's dress fetish to the extended ice cream metaphor. There's a lot more than horse girls chocolate out there, Flash my boy. And I got far too much out of a chuckle from the interplay between Pink and Floyd.

Also, I'm going to assume that Rock Crate is like Loot Crate, but with rocks.

Thank you for this.

Any plans to do more stories with the flash and pinkie pairing.

Remember, according to the shorts, there's a fifty-fity chance he's still dating a pony.

Firstly I'd like to say I do like this story a lot, it's super cute and fun. Gave it my thumbs up.

But I would like to say that there really wasn't much in the way of why Pinkie is into Flash. This isn't trying to be Flash Sentry bashing, you don't seem to show what it is about Flash that excites Pinkie. What is it about him that gets HER heart racing, and want to drag him along. She thinks he's cute, and his complimenting her feel like just a start, more than anything else. It shows why she likes to hang around him but nothing else, it's very one way.

Maybe for a sequel?

The important thing to remember about Pinkie romance is that Pinkie is an exciteable ball of fluff who loves everybody. Dating them is not a far stretch, as that's just hanging out with somebody you like even more.

What I am saying is, it's nice to be Pinkie.

Good stuff, Props.

I think Flash Sentry is playing his Cool Guy Hand like it is the best and worst thing going? I love to think Flash is always the Guy who'd keep getting any Girl like He's The Bachelor.:rainbowkiss:

...this is the first time I've actually seen this pairing.

Its...actually the most believable (at least how you've depicted it), and Pinkie still kept to her quirky but lovable random self. I hope there's another part in this saga.

I mean, the SS Flashlight seems to be drydocked, but the other ships that are pulling out of the harbor are really amazing!

Coming soon, Episode 3: Pinkie and Flash go to Harajuku and Flash overloads immediately.

This is the perfect amount of fluff. I mean MIT scientifically measured and double-blind tested precision fluff. Well done.

"We've got a romance tag, now! And we're rated T!"

At this point, I had to stop reading, scroll up, and check.
I then cheered a little too loudly.

Pinkie would be proud.

--Spade

This is good. This is actually good. You give Flash more personality than Hasbro itself, and they look cute together :3

Never knew that it would be a good ship but goddamn this needs a continuation

Flash Pie is confusing, but I KNOW that Flash will suffer if he and Pinkie EVER go visit Harajuku.

8824670
Most stories give Flash more character than Hasbro, what with what little development he gets in the movies. I think that's part of the reason why so many people dislike him.

I don't mind this ship at all. It's different yet works. Refreshing from all the sunset - flash pairings though I liked those too.

I also like how Pinkie makes naughty comments yet somehow retains her innocent demeanor. I mean she flashed her panties at Flash yet it didn't seem out of character for her.

Pinkie Pie being Pinkie. I do like the idea of her lingerie shopping though...

My, my, my. Pinkie, you little flirty tease you are, I love this so much! This was excellent spiritual sequel to the original, now I wanna another sequel to this cuz I'm now a sucker for some Pinkie & Flash! :pinkiehappy:

Please tell me there's going to be anothet sequel, I'm really loving this. Flash and Pinkie are adorable.

Gah I took too long to read this. Should've got to it sooner.

>tfw you make me like straight shipping

I ship this now

I didn't before

A+

All of the “yes!”

Oh my... taking a gal lingerie shopping can be a lot of fun for both of you.

Man, I forgot why Flash was such a gloomy-gus in these. Anyway, I feel like a lingerie place would be a mixed bag for guitar-boy. Yes, there will be lots of lace and sexy things there, but probably not very much in the way of "cute" which seems to be more his thing. And of course you know Pinkie is just gonna casually mention to the Rainbooms that Flash took her shopping for panties. :facehoof:

"Okay, how ab—wait, what?" Pinkie halted in her line of questioning, staring at Flash.

Pinkie Pie getting flummoxed. And by Flash Sentry of all people. The romance tag was well deserved...

Oh my Luna this was so perfect. I could feel every anxious moment of Flash. And Pinkie was so reality based eccentric well done adding to favs to revisit later.

Flash simping for Pinkie was great and I love this relationship.

The "live in the moment" vibe really works with Flash who is just too hung up on his immortal pony princess. Stop thinking about the damn horse-girl and kiss the PONK ya damn goof!

Hey everyone, it's story very funny! Thanks! :ajsmug:
