It's amazing how similar losing your best friend and getting dumped by your fiance are.

I feel for Dash here, but she also needs to pull her head out of her ass. Drugs and self-harm don't solve anything, no matter how much you try or how hard you hope. The world, for better or for worse, doesn't quite work like that.

As always, I-A-M, I look forward to the next chapter, and I hope someday to add a hard copy of your works to my bookshelf.

nice work.

“Make me!” I snarl, jerking limply as I snap at her.

Fluttershy doesn’t flinch. She still doesn’t turn away or fold in the slightest. She just looks down at me, hardens her gaze, and after a moment she braces herself on the railing of my bed and leans in close until her bright blue eyes are inches from mine and my heart feels like it’s freezing in my chest.

“Watch me.”

Great chapter. My only critique is if Rainbow's line had been "You can't make me!". I feel like Fluttershy's response would've had a little more depth.

Understandable, though I tend to give Rainbow speech patterns that favor challenges over refusals. To me, the line doesn’t sound right coming out, but that’s probably a personal thing.

Fair enough. A challenge does represent her competitive nature. Although by the same token Rainbow also has a tendency to refuse to be told what to do, representing her current rebellious lifestyle.

Either line would work. It's just a matter of which side of Rainbow you want to portray.

You have a way of making people feel the emotions through every chapter, great job.

"hustle to obey.I"
Stray letter, or something missing?

Huh; that went unexpectedly well! :)
We'll see how things proceed...

l I’d have to be around Apple Bloom and be civil.

Anyone else have a very bad feeling that things are going to go very south, the very second A.B. tries to talk or apologize to Dash for what she and her friends have did to Sunset?

Feeling? More like promise. And Rainbow doesn't exactly strike me as the self-restraining type.
I guess there's always a chance things can remain calm, so let's all hope for the best.

Oh boy ....
