For Stargazer, a colt who lives in Rainbow Falls, life seems to be a series of losses. He really needs a win; he's counting on one to fix everything wrong in his life. There is a classroom contest with a telescope as the prize. For a colt whose cutie mark is a telescope, this surely is a sign. Victory seems written in the stars. How could he lose?
Definitely a good one, Kudz. It ended on the right note... and could even make a good episode, IMO. Hopefully we'll see this pair again later.
its good and your right about the drag. short stories need punch long stories need depth
Fun short story ty for it
Come on really, someone actually downvoted this?

Probably an auto-hate 'cause Kudz.
Loved it!
With a chapter title like that, I almost expected a story about flatulent pegasi with matches.
I must be used to certain reoccurring elements in Kudzus stories.
Oh, wait, there's one. thankfully without the matches.
I do kind of worry about the future of Stargazer and his family.
“Instead of a telescope, you got the constellation prize...
Ouch. A palatable hit, right in my editor gland, even though it is perfectly correct. Ow. Ow.

Medic! Medic! Editor down!
Never have I cried over such a shitty pun
Good on you
Good on you
Perfect attendance trumphs all, Life lesson instead of what was needed...no fresh food, no telescope but hey maybe friend!
Yeah.
Ouch, right in the puncrease
Cute short story with a wonderful ending, I like it.
Kudzu, you've gotten me again.
Another warm, tingly—dare I say cute—story, about a colt and a filly. What right do you have to take my heart away from me? Thanks for writing another one of these independent stories, they really highlight all the best sections of your writing.
AUGH. That is adorable, and heartfelt, and heartbreaking, and I love it. This is a great story, and very much feels like a plausible episode of the show - albeit, more serious than the show goes for.
I like this, a lot. Good job, Kudz.
I got to admit, it was a bit predictable, that however detract from the story.
It'd be nice to read more of Stargazer and Lime Tart.

Hey...
You should be ashamed of yourself is what I want to say but I've got a rough story written out based on a pun so I really can't say anything.
this was such a nice one-shot. i know not every story of yours is in the weed-verse but when i was wondering where it would fall in the timeline and Twilight was like “I just became a princess not all that long ago-“
I was like *clutches chest* “goodness that’s early on!” ha. im currently rereading House of the Rising Sunflower so my mind was in that time, oof
but, not gonna lie, the bit where Stargazer was in the cart shed got me crying. your stories always hit that sad spot for me. nicely done c:
