Writing is surprisingly satisfying.

While gathering food in the Everfree Forest, Fluttershy finds a damaged metallic pony. Even though it's not quite alive, she still feels the need to help the struggling machine through its rough past.

As they form connections, can Fluttershy prove that there's more to this android than just metal and programming?

Fluttershy stared wide-eyed at the unusual machine. Never is all her life had she seen anything close to this, the closest being that apple-squeezing machine the Flim and Flam Brothers had brought to town a while back.

Is should be in.

The and is unnecessary, as they refer to themselves as the Flim-Flam Brothers. Doesn't nessecarily need the dash, just one of the ways of spelling it.


This was a really sweet story! I'm glad to see someone making the Timberwolves actual creatures, rather than just mindless predators. The fact that they retreat, and that they have family bonds is a nice detail.

Also, Fluttershy as always incredibly compassionate. Her affect on ORISA is cute and heartwarming. When the weapons switched on, at first I thought it would go slightly differently, but luckily my quick to assume mind was wrong.

Good Job!

Thanks mate! I'm glad you enjoyed. Let's see how well we write during the next competition.:twilightsheepish:

I’d hate to see him upset with me…”

He’s always upset.

A small sob sounded from Fluttershy’s shaking form. Holding up the broken bundle of sticks, she whispered, “ why… why did you hurt him… you didn’t have to attack him like that…”

WHAT?

As the magic of friendship flowed through their connected appendages

What does that mean?

10425878
It's the magic of friendship. It's the answer to 95% of the problems in Equestria, so why not this one?

10425884
Is that the answer for the 3rd quote?

10425887
Yeah, I'm not sure what you're asking with the other two.:twilightsheepish:

10425888
The others weren’t questions.so their “connected appendages” has the magic of friendship flowing through them?

10425910
It was just a way of showing that even machines are able to feel friendship. It wasn't a literal magic glimmer, just that warm, fuzzy feeling you get when you talk to someone you like.:scootangel:

10425916
Oh, so it refers to the connection she has with twilight and fluttershy?

10425938
Really just Fluttershy. Twilight was just a plot device to move the story forward. The one shot was meant to show Fluttershy's kindness extend to not just creatures but also machines.

Oh ok, I think I get it now.

Apparently self-defense is NOT in the Equestrian dictionary. It should be added.

I know Orisa's actions can be counted as self defense, but Fluttershy's reaction was meant to emphasize the kindness she was trying to impart to the metal pony.

This was a crossover I didn't know I needed - aside from maybe Bastion crossing over. I know Orisa already has a "Twilight" skin and all. I really do wish there was more. The characterization for Fluttershy was on point, and I liked how you made timberwolves out to be more than just monsters. Does make me wonder how Orisa made it into Equestria though. Nice job.

Well, if this story gets enough attention, I *might* be able to add a few extra chapters.:rainbowwild:

10426282 I keep forgetting this is Equestria. Not Earth.

10426348
Yeah, things like aggravated assualt aren't as common in Ponyville as they are in the turd we call Earth.:twilightoops:
