The Gift

One day, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Apple Bloom receive a message and a package from a pony they don’t recognize. Inside is a vest, an ugly, highly reflective, bright orange safety vest. Alongside is an apology for an event they don’t remember, and the words “Hope gives you wings.” Confused, they take the vest and the letter to Twilight, who tells Scootaloo to put the vest on in order to finally receive the real gift…

Like the point with Mount Aris. I always believed that Scootaloo loved it underwater so much because her entire species has this shared thing, that she can never relate o, and when swimming she finally felt like she was included, like she was one of her kind.

In fact, in that episode when they first get underwater Scootaloo does some loops and shouts out "This must be what flying is like!" I was hoping to catch some of that unbridled joy.

This is a lovely, heartwarming story. The flow is really dynamic, while your detailed, yet simple descriptions keep up the enchanting atmosphere. Grammar and spelling-wise solid as well, just watch out for any lowercase belles, there are quite a few of them, but that’s just me being very nitpicky. Thank you for this enlightening read!
