"Show my head to the people, it is worth seeing." - Georges Danton

Spitfire wakes up to her worst nightmare: a day so foggy she'll need to cancel practice. She never cancels practice. After all, they're Wonderbolts and bad weather doesn't frighten them.

Hopefully, her partners can talk some sense into her before the injury reports mount.


Written for Quill's and Sofa First Curated Contest hosted by the themoontonite. i'm just mentioning the host because you should give her a follow, in order to find out all about how Fluttershy waters thirsty flowers.

Proofread by Vis-a-Viscera and Atom Smash. Who were lovely with their workshopping and are also worth the follow. Just mwah.

Just hilarious. I plan to do an audio reading of this soon. With the author's permission, of course.

Weather shouldn't stop anything. They're pegasi. They control the weather in this world!

i mean sure but the Wonderbolts aren't the only pegasus in town. If the weather bureaucracy says that Cloudsdale's getting fog, then Cloudsdale's getting fog.

God, I love this one. It's hilarious and raunchy at times, but it's also so wholesome and sweet and domestic. Just some ponies in love, living together, doin' regular stuff. It's great. Thank you for this, gara.

Thank you so much Wish. Glad to grace Speedwrite with my miasma every once in awhile.

Very rare to see a SoarinFleetFire fic.

Fleetfoot stuck out her tongue. “I mean let’s be honest, babe. Earth ponies get to take snow days, unicorns get well… a lot of days off, and us pegasus kind of get shafted

snow days are for everyone, mores the pity

This is a really excellent piece, and was my personal winner for the contest! You nail the interactions between all three characters perfectly, it's genuinely amazing how you can balance all their personalities and have it come off so effortlessly and natural! That's something I'd love to improve about my own writing so it's fabulous to see you do it so deftly! :twilightsmile:

Oooh~ A polyfic, and it's a wholesome and funny one too? Love it, like it, ship it.

Awww thank you so much for the kind words, Seer. And let me tell you that while i don't usually go for the brooding fics yours totally deserved the win for this contest. It was *Chef Kiss*

Glad to provide!

Well, I hope you do more. I do enjoy SoarinFire a lot, but I also really like SoarinFleetFire as well.

“Maybe we can do some indoor lectures?” Spitfire suggested, flicking her hoof towards no one in particular as she filled up a Wonderbolts’ mug with coffee – another gift unknowingly donated. “Go over flight routines and…”

Didn’t you already mention a mug as a gift?

Once finished, she sighed contently. “I mean, you both knew I was a freak getting into this relationship. I haven’t heard any complaints before.”

Are they in a polyamorous relationship?

Also, I’m glad this came out on my birthday.

This was a really cute and fun story. You did a good job writing their relationship. I never really cared for Wonderbolts romance, but you handled it well!

unicorns get well… a lot of days off

Back in antiquity, they'd make a lot of noise about the stars not being right. These days you're lucky if they get out of bed.

One line I've been trying to fit into a story is Spitfire saying "I'm not allowed to take days off. Not since I spread a musical number across half of Equestria." But I don't think anyone would have an issue with her taking this sort of day off. Lovely bit of elite aerial domesticity. Thank you for it.

These three are the best, and this was a pretty nice picture of them together :twilightsmile:
