This story is a sequel to Twice the Personality
Liam the Human was the happiest when he was dating his soon-to-be wife, Fluttershy, whom he was greatly in love with. During the last months of her life, they were both told that they were going to be parents, but, on the day of the delivery, Fluttershy sadly passed due to complications, leaving Liam to take care of their only child.
Four years after the tragic events that took place at the hospital, a knock sounds at the front door of the cottage that Fluttershy and Liam both called home, and, when he answers it, his world is turned upside down when the pony on the other side happens to be his deceased mistress. With her is another pony bearing a letter and a message.

Good title.
Wow, I like it.
This brought a tear to my eye. It was so deep and heartwrenching it was also so sweet and tender. Please keep up the good work. You just got a new follower!
This felt to me like the first chapter to a story and not a 1-shot.

I wasn't sure it was a good title at first, but, if it works for ya, then that's good enough for me! :)

Glad you think so! It was a bit of a challenge to make it sound convincing and believable, so I'm happy it worked out. Also, thanks for the follow!
That was beautiful. May we have a sequel?

You forgot to say, ''Please, sir'' at the beginning! And, to answer your query, I don't know. I tend not to write sequels unless the story it is continued from needs some closure or if I have an idea to further it. But I have neither at the moment that I'd like to act upon.

OK. Nontheless, a truly excellent story. With your permission, I'll post this to anypony who says the fandom is dead.
Very nice work. The only thing I'd change is the troup about the duplicate being perfect but unable to comprehend their mechanical nature. A copy good enough to BE you is good enough to process a body swap. Rick and Morty did this well in "Rick Potion No9" which you should absolutely see if you haven't already. Most stories are notably improved by the characters working through the implications of the life altering swap. Thanks for writing this

You have my express permission to do just that, dear sir! In my eyes, this fandom will likely never die out..I'm pretty sure it's the biggest fandom out there at the moment, and it has been ever since the early days! Well, maybe except for stuff like Star Trek, Star Wars and Harry Potter.

Harry Potter is a stellar example to all the naysayers-

(no, not that naysayer)
that a fandom can continue onwards long after the last piece of official media has been released.

I never said the Personal Duplicate was perfect, only that it matched the specifications flawlessly to the pony it was meant to be a clone of. And it isn't a body swap because Fluttershy is dead. It isn't a matter of switching minds between two individuals, it's about taking the DNA of a deceased being and using it as a base for growing a new one over a robotic frame. Although, if I'm being completely honest about this, I didn't really intend for Fluttershy to be a robot, but I went with it because that's how the story just turned out as I was writing it.

Well that's the issue - let's say instead of a 'perfect copy' of Fluttershy we do a perfect copy of you. When you wake up today you notice you now are part robot. You seem to be teleported a year forward in time from when you last went to sleep and those around you say you've been dead for a year. How would you react to this? Would you just ignore everything, unable to comprehend what was going on? Or would you be smart enough to understand and respond to this situation?
Fluttershy is bright enough to understand and respond to her 'death' in a rich and complex way. Anything else that can't handle this mental task is far from a 'perfect' copy no matter how much they may look alike.
This explains it better than I could:
