Moving into a new house is always tough. Leaving the environment you know, saying goodbye to the places you are familiar with, getting used to an entirely new living space that does feel nowhere near like home at the beginning..... Moving out from an abusive household, however, is a blessing.
Ruby Pinch had to leave her old home, for the sake of her safety and her sanity. But now that she sees the house she is supposed to live in from now on, doubts come over her. The history of the house and its look are opportunities for second-guessing and, suddenly, Ruby is not sure about living there anymore.
Her friend Dinky Hooves loves the house, though, and the history of it gives her all the more reason to move in together with Ruby Pinch. Her other friend, Liza Doolots, just wants that Ruby makes the best decision for herself.
Ruby Pinch can always rely on her friends. And together, nothing will stop them from having the best fillies' flat possible..... not even a scary, old witch.

This story is a gift for DinkyUniverse and was written to celebrate a very special occasion. :heart:

Loved it! Every second! I always imagined the three would be best friends, together with Noi. And you showed that very well.

Also, I can understand your use of Liza. I just preferred Tootsie, as I found that easier to remember and write back then, know what I mean?

No, I don't, I remember both names for her equally well. I had the joy to find out why the fandom started to call her "Tootsie Flute" a little while ago, back in the days during Season 1, but I prefer Liza because it sounds cooler and because "Liza" sounds like it's a reference to Lyra's name, which I think is the reason why Lyra and Bon Bon have given her that name.

Thanks! This is one of these stories a lot of heart was poured into and I felt incredibly connected with it because of that. It turned out great as a result. Now only the views would have to reflect that..... I am noticing a pattern here now, how fics focusing solely on background ponies perform, and it is bothering me. I want to promote this story more and I want to research this problem that background pony focus stories have and find out why it is happening.
Thank you for favouriting the story! :scootangel:

What I mean is, back then, as I used LIza, it always forgot it. Tootsie Flute had an easier time staying in my memory, thus I used that instead.

And you're welcome, your work is great!

If I may ask, what's your view when it comes to the different cutie marks of background ponies

You mean, that some foals who are still blank flanks are sometimes seen with cutie marks anyway? And that some of them are even seen with changing cutie marks? I think they fake it. They can't wait to get their cutie marks, so they paint fake cutie marks onto their flanks to give themselves at least the illusion of already having a cutie mark.

a good theory. Me, i used once that the different cutie marks were the result of dreaming while still blank, that was for noi once

You mean, that the foals were only dreaming about having a cutie mark?

I have a different theory about Dinky and how she is sometimes seen with a cutie mark. I wrote a story about this:

yes, i used that in my story of noi, she's a blank flank but mentioned she dreamed having a cutie mark, once that, once this.

And i read your story back then

That was a good story.
