Do you mean other?
Far?
Do you mean thought?
I’d take it.

I meant ether.
Thank you for catching the other two items, I've now corrected them.
Yes, I would too. 'Shy is different.

Thank you!
That wasn't the ending I expected. I don't see too much of a valid reason to reject Discord's offer to heal Shy because, she is better, she can help others, such as the animals in the Sanctuary, better. With the danger done, recovery becomes top priority. The main reason to hesitate is because Discord's magic can be . . . a bit chaotic. I think it is that way even if he wanted something serious.

There's another story I recall where Discord offers Shy the gift of immortality and much to his bewilderment, she refuses. I won't say anything more lest I spoil it for you.
You know how the universe is a hologram and reality an illusion? Good cause you got reviewed!
I really like the idea of this. The review that led me here claims it lacks direction, which I don't think is the case, and also that there isn't really any sadness or shock here, which I think is the case but also is something I really like about the story and I'd wager kind of its whole point. Wallowing-in-my-wallow fics are a dime a dozen on this site, but seeing characters go through this kind of trauma and actually pick themselves up again is a rare treat. So, top marks for that.
I will say that the writing is a little bit disjointed and... perfunctory is a good word for it. Economy of prose is one thing, but context and background detail are also helpful and while this tries to have those things it still reads in a very "this happened then this happened then this happened" fashion,. I kind of feel like this is one of those stories that has a premise but not quite a plot.
Still, the fact that it deals with the subject matter it does, without turning on the Linkin Park, makes it instantly memorable compared to 90% of the contents of this site.
