Well, I first thought that this was going to be a silly romp, but then it was genuinely touching. I love it! I can't imagine why it doesn't have more votes.
Not bad, kinda wholesome
Why is it labeled Incomplete?
A very lovely first chapter, although personally I'd recommend perhaps a rewrite, perhaps toning down the hamminess of the reporter and some of the infodumping. I get you're trying to make the reporter sound excited and energetic but it comes more across as being unintentionally obnoxious. Also in a rewrite perhaps splitting this forst chapter into a couple more so it processes better. Other than that it's a great fic! shame that more downvotes are likely to be simply be lgbtqia-phobes than actual critics
I love this they stick up for what they believe in great job

Thank you for the legit criticism. Seeing the amount of vitriol this fiction received was disheartening for both myself and my wife, in particular. Concern-trolling masquerading as critique is pretty foul and I've already had to block a few ugly individuals.
I was wondering how people would take "The Dude". I did want that kind of over-the-top D.J. feel we used to get in the 70's, starting with Sesame Street's "Guy Smiley, roving reporter" adding a little "WKRP Dr Johnny Fever", some "Kingston Falls Rockin' Ricky" and dialing it up to eleven. I know my manner of writing voices as I hear them in my head comes off as irksome to some, like my southern drawl for the Apple clan. Thank you again for your candour. I'll definitely be taking it into account in the next installment.

Truthfully, I may not fully understand what the tag means. I'm still a bit new to the site, admittedly. I took "incomplete" as meaning that there were still future chapters to be written and posted?

Thank you for the support, love. Pleasure to make your acquaintance.
I'm sorry people forced you through those experiences. Coming out and living honestly still seems to be a hard scene for WAY too many people in this world. With the efforts of compassionate, brave people with fierce hearts things have gotten better and I believe that as long as we never give up, they will continue to get better- for ALL of us. We will have a world that doesn't need a Pride Parade one day because EVERY day will be one- one we'll ALL want to hit up for the love and fun.
Congratulations and Big Love to you for finally being able to live your truth. It looks like you're doing all right, standing tall and swinging back against voices of intolerance. Right on! <3

Yes, that is what it means.
I ask because you put -fin- at the end.
-fin- means Finished. End of story. There is no more.

She is serious and there's no need to be insulting people or their work. Please find somewhere else to unpleasant and antagonistic.
Dude Mcsmirky is quite lovable to me. I'm big on hammy bombastic folks. *smiles* The moment shared between Twilight and Octavia so wonderfully sweet, too. They are a delightful couple.
Seeing somepony claim that pride parades come across as "an extremely unhealthy obsession with the self" is stunningly insincere when that pony is part of a "humans are superior" group and has a nazi-themed username. They also fail to grasp that not only is that not the point of pride parades, but also that being lgbt doesn't define *who* someone is. It's as much the "self" as is the color of one's eyes. It does not define their character.
We always need more pride, more love. More beauty, more kindness. Drown out the hollering bigots with sunshine and laughter. You rock! <3
I absolutely loved this! I can't wait to see more interviews!
Don't be discouraged by the the bad comments and dislikes, a lot of trans positive stuff tends to get it sadly, but it would be a major shame not to see this continue!
