On a trip to Ponyville’s new cat café, Sandbar makes three discoveries:
1. He has a huge crush on Gallus.
2. He is severely allergic to cats.
3. Griffons are half cat.


Set early in the school year in an alternate Season 8.

Second place winner of The Discovery Young Six writing contest.

Are y’all going to drop this, or do I need to start moderating comments?

Brilliant! I love Gallbar!
Not that YonaBar or GallStream are bad though.

i was content to leave it at the first one
i'm done, so long as everyone else is

gallstream and yonabar are the proper ships
that is all

Doesn't matter what people ship. None of it is any more canon than anything else.

I just enjoy a good story and this one had some nice, fresh ideas, so I liked it!

So, will Sandbar's mom be able to be anywhere near Gallus, or will her allergies make it impossible for her to attend the wedding?

Not really a fan of GallBar, but I made an exception this time because the idea of someone having a crush on someone but at the same time being literally allergic to them was an idea that amused me too much. :rainbowlaugh:

It's a nice tale. It'd still work even without taking it as far as a ship too, for that matter, but this works too. :twilightsmile:

She’d be at the wedding, sipping a potion from Zecora. That, or ponies will invent Benadryl finally.

Trust someone from a family who have a history of allergies similar to this--even Benadryl can only go so far. :raritywink:

Great story so far I'm a sucker for a god gallus X sandbar.

This is so cute!! I'm excited to see what comes next! I also love the humor you've woven in here, it fits really well!

Today I learned a new word! Pediment! And the idea for Thunder Rock is GENIUS! It totally fits!

What a sweet ending! My only complaint is that it seems to end a little suddenly - but then, I imagine that the focus of the story was not 'and here's how Gallus and Sandbar end up happily ever after', but 'here's how these two fall in love.' It's such a sweet, tender story! <3 I never considered shipping between the Young Six before, but I ship them now!!

I like gallbar its cute and funny besides surprisingly it's a ship that makes some sense to me but not in a weird way just there closer then most would think and they both seem the type to go for ones they connect with emotionally over physical traits

As a furry with horrific cat allergies who is married to a cat, this topic strikes a chord.

(I'm not allergic to my husband, thank goodness.)

This is incredibly cute so far. I'm liking the choice of first-person too.

Absolutely excellent cuddly stuff going on here.

Please tell me there will be a sequel!

Whoa, Kam made fan art! You can check it, and their other excellent art, on Twitter: https://twitter.com/KamDrawings/status/1248667824974753793

This was absolutely adorable, and I'm thankful I finally remembered to read it! Very, very cute and a fun exploration into Sandbar's yearning for his fierce and cute friend.
