After weeks of stares and odd reactions from everypony around her, Rainbow decided to find out the reason. As it turns out the reason is that everypony thinks that her and Fluttershy are dating, even though they totally aren't. As it turns out, everypony is dead set on that idea, and they can't convince any of them that it isn't true, so now what are they supposed to do?

Coulda sworn I changed it. Thanks for telling me!

I feel Trust Once Lost vibe but different.

And i like it.

I will be disappointed though if there's no such thing like this in the end.

Dear Princess Celestia.

Ah learn to not jumpin' to conclusions... :ajsleepy:

10439418
I'm going to have to read that one, it looks really interesting. I'm so glad you liked it :yay:.

And we'll see...

10439421
Get the wrong idea fic is definitely unique.

:yay:

10439429
Yeah, that's why I wanted to do this kind of thing, and also because I like writing a frustrated Rainbow :rainbowhuh:

Like your writing but the fic grates on my nerves, alot.
At the point where Rainbow confronted AJ and she wasnt listening i would have punched her in the face friends or not. Even if she was gay it was definetly not her choice to put it out for others to ridicule and point at.
Its one of the greatest pet peeves i have when another jokes around somebodys sexuality to the point where it doesent matter if it is the truth or not and you cant do anything about it. And the worst thing? It was done by your "friends". Never do this to your friend or you will lose them, it has to be their choice to come out if there is something.

Sorry author but unless something changes within next chapter and Ranbow atleast explodes on the others quite harshly to get the point across im dropping the fic.

Yeah, glad you decided to go with this. So far it's fun and with just the right amount of frustrating to keep the plot moving but not be painful or forced.

I mean feel free to do whatever you want. If you don’t like it that’s fine, but I’ll at least explain why I wanted Applejack to seem clueless. I feel like out of all the mane 6, AJ would be the most talkative and not listen to anypony (except Pinkie) and I know it’s a stretch for everypony else to not listen to Fluttershy and Rainbow, but in order for it to work, I needed them to seem deadset. That’s why I had it be a few weeks before this started, because I said (although didn’t really emphasize) that they all saw them doing small things and jumped the gun on what they could mean. I have friends that do it all the time. That’s why I did what I did, and if you truly don’t think the next chapter redeems what you thought, then that’s fine.

10439803
That’s really what I was afraid of, being too forced, but I hope I didn’t. Trust me though, I have a plan for the next chapter that will hopefully eliminate any forcibility (or make it even more forced, hopefully the former :twilightsheepish:).

10441172
Ehhhh, i guess i got fired up for no reason tbh. I had a similar situation ruin my best friends friendship between 3 of us. Abit too personal and close to heart i guess and in the heat of the moment anger prevailed....
As i said i love your writing but it hit abit too close to home where wounds are still fresh.

With that i give an apology to you.

10441196
It’s all good. I’m glad you think I’m a good writer, but if this isn’t your cup of tea there’s far better material out there. I’ve explained my point of view and you’ve explained yours, so maybe it will be too forced like you thought, but like I mentioned I have a plan for the next chapter. What happens might be slightly forced, but if you can buy into it then I don’t think anything will be forced after that

It almost feels like they are trying to gaslight her.

10444367
I know it's a bit of a stretch to believe that the characters would act this mindless, but that's how I wanted them to act for the sake of the story, so yeah, Rainbow is essentially gassed :rainbowderp:

10469590
Sorry man, I kind of meant for this to annoy Rainbow, but not the audience :twilightsheepish:

Oh deary, deary me.

10470642
Yeah, but I still feel like the way I did it here was alright:trollestia:. The first draft’s version was much, MUCH worse, so I’m actually happy with how this chapter turned out.

10470653
Oh no, I'm talking about the misunderstanding, not the comments :)

10470654
Oh sorry, but yeah i needed something big like this to happen. This should be fun...

10470660
Rainbow is going to flip out once she finds out what people think.
She may get especially annoyed at people thinking she's a sub :)

10470662
And especially to Fluttershy of all ponies. I honestly need to think of everypony’s reactions to this, RD and FS to what they think and the other four to how they react to the couple now

Just noticed that you say "meatballs" several times instead of "hayballs"

hope in the end they get their own back and have everyone thinking AJ,Rarity and co are all dating

10470709
Maybe, maybe not :trixieshiftright:, but please know that I have the ending planned, it's just the middle parts that I have to sort out.

Heh, amusing, specially the end, that's not gonna make things any easier. Was expecting Spike to act as their waiter, in part for spying purposes.

Another amusing one kind of like this I so 'Pair the spares', though that resolves itself much faster, amusing to have a bit longer if a dilemma.

I suppose the next steps will likely be to try Dating some pony else, or give in and just accept that they have to go out now.

Waiting for Twi or Rarity to mess up and get an announcement about FS and RD in the paper, and then the ribbing RD will get from the wonder bolts over it.

Looking forward to more.

Nice. I actually think you did well in limiting the cringy romcom/sitcom "this is the only solution that makes sense" sort of thing. It might have benefitted from a little more explanation between the two that, yes, they had in fact directly stated the fact to their friends already and that hadn't worked. Random thought that you don't have to put in though: maybe actually allude to other plans they might have had, specifically one where they pretend to have a "break up" to end the rumors quickly, blatantly, and publicly. But then of course mention that Fluttershy couldn't be that mean to Rainbow Dash even if it was pretend. Just a little more context to show that they did consider more options to make the solution a little more believable. But like I said, this only pokes at my past my suspension of disbelief but doesn't come anywhere close to breaking it, so it works as is.

Somehow missed that this was updated!

I'm really loving how this is going, especially the relationship dynamic forming between RD and FS despite the fact that they're not dating. It just makes me wish that they were!

10482217
I’m a shipper of the two personally, but I like writing confusion stories more than anything (as evidenced in some of my other stories)

I know this is cliche, but I really hope this story ends with the two realizing they really like each other. That's the only reason I'm staying with it.

Well, this is an Interesting development.

10513610
Ah yes, quite the dilemma, but all shall be explained :raritywink:

I'm going to put in a guess of allergies. Picked the wrong flower and needed to go get her allergy meds. But she wanted to go through with the plan to make Rainbow happy and ended up with a major reaction and thus locked herself away. Even if not, I think I can see where this is going and i still want to see it happen.

10513877
Good guess! You'll just have to wait and see. :raritywink:

Rainbow and Fluttershy ought just get their friends in trouble with their parents,Granny Smith for AJ and Princess Celestia in Twilights case. would be a simple letter to them too.

Brilliant as always! I love this story more with each chapter :twilightsmile:

10515010
Maybe they will, you'll have to see. By the way, do you think they'd go to Pinkie's parents or just the cakes?

10515158
I'm really glad you like is so far! This is probably my best story in terms of execution (save for Can Two Mares Kiss), even though at times it's a stretch of the character's gullibility.

10515173
hmm, well if they're going to go to the trouble of contacting princess celestia, then they'd likely get in touch with pinkies parents also

10515615
"Thou art very absentminded Pinkamena. Thou should have considered the sensibilities of thy friends."

That ain't good... shoot!

NOOOOOOOOO-

I NEED TO SEE MORE-

10518788
More is coming, don't worry :raritywink: but I'm super happy you like it!

Heh, kind of hope this gets at least a short sequel where Dash and Shy end up getting hitched to stallions, making the others truly realize they weren't in love.

Well, I'm kind of bummed that Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash didn't end up together, but oh well. The story was a lot shorter than I thought it would be, but if you're satisfied with leaving it there, that's your call.

10530846
That would be funny, but I wasn't really planning on a sequel, so I think I'll leave it here. I definitely think something like that would have been cool though.
10530910
Yeah, I didn't want it to become another Apple Bloom's Secret, so I decided to wrap it up here. I was debating whether or not to have some other plan, but then I thought it might have dragged. I really hope you liked it!

10530846
I almost expected Dash to ask all of the other four on a date ate the same time to prove that she wasn't dating Flutters.

10530991
And then one of them could have unexpectedly said yes. :rainbowderp:

Honestly they need to give the girls taste of their own medicine and start rumours that other mane six dating each other

10531262
I was actually considering that as an alternative ending, but I couldn't think of a way to cleverly put that in. It would have been cool though.

10531268
Discord help could do it or contact princess and have her show up to congratulate twilight on hooking up with pinkie :rainbowlaugh:
