interesting, but im illiterate.
however, i do love me some Starburst
I can absolutely see a dynamic like this. Poor Glimglam's gonna need some adjustment time.
I was about to comment about how amazingly lovely this story was with all the proper romances and dialogues in all the right ways and all the right places, but then I caught the “incomplete”….
More? Moar, MOAR
Dang for a second I thought Starlight was gonna rip Sunburst’s cape by how hard she was shaking him
Wait. Rip his cape? That actually sounds kinda hot! Make it happen!

I don’t think anyone is arguing about the last season
Honestly, I've always thought that when Starlight brings that up... she isn't going to like qhat she finds out. I have a few different thoughts, but the most likely thing to me is that I can absolutely see Firelight meddling to try and "protect" Starlight from more pain as she loses a friend, the fact that he's causing most of it completely going over his head. But that's my take on things.
Yeah, that's going to be something that hangs over their relationship like the sword of Damocles - Starlight always wondering if she's just going to be abandoned again.

That fear of abandonment, I can see Starlight having that issue with anyone she has a relationship with, but it would probably jump out more with Sunburst. He left her once, she thinks in her head, what's stopping him from leaving again? I like to think they talked about it somewhere off-screen in the show, maybe sometime after the Uncommon Bond episode, considering she's noticeably calmer around him after that.
Everyone has their theories, I'm just throwing mine into the ring based on my own experiences of losing touch with friends.
I know Starlight said she never saw him again, but I like to think they did, from afar at least. Sunburst coming over during the holidays and being too scared to approach her, and eventually stopped seeing her altogether once he was old enough to live on his own, and Starlight being too bitter to extend the olive branch and rebuild that bridge, moving on to do her own thing, and the rest is history.

Certainly would make sense. :) But yeah, there was definitely a convo or two we don't see that helped out there after Flurry was behind her lead shielding. Though she did have her clear insecurities all through, which was good writing on that front.
It was a nice journey, though it’s sad to see it end

Alas, all good things must come to an end
I'm not really much for shipping, but I adore how you've gone about it here; how Starlight and Sunburst are both barely put together as adults (hashtag-relatable), and how they struggle with all the baggage they're carrying about each other, it really gets to the heart of why they make a compelling ship. Because from the audience perspective, all I wanna do is mash them together and scream "just kiss already!" (The scene with Maud and Trixie really hammers this—eat your heart out, Bechdel.)

Thanks for giving my fic a chance and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
They really are a compelling ship to me, two dumpsters fires falling in love is the best relationship dynamic in fiction honestly. I wasn't planning on exploring this aspect but it just sorta happened. And making the audience scream in frustration as these two idiots dance around their feelings makes the author grin like a maniac. Again thanks for the lovely comment!

Really? I would never have guessed.
And thank you for writing a lovely story!

I couldn't help myself and spent way too much time on this:
I regret nothing
11078262
Yeah, I hide it very well, not surprised that people haven't caught on yet
and also, that picture is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen
thank you so much!!!
This was so cute!!! I love it when they take the first step
Ugh, so precious. What a perfect final chapter. I'm gonna bookmark it and read it endlessly for the foreseeable future. Well done and congrats. I'll see your stories around. Godspeed!

Thank yoouuuu!!! I'm glad you like it and had some fun along the way
I really like this characterization of sunburst and starlight. Good job
I really liked it. The insecurities made it so real and fun to see how it developed
I usually try to refrain from commenting in the middle of a story. Because somehow, I always ask questions that get answered the next chapter, remark on weird stuff that gets explained in the next chapter, and so on and so forth. Ah well, this one got me though.
For all the heavy emotions in this chapter, for all the drama and rising tides, I read that line and somehow, I immediately broke down laughing. The further I read into this, the more uncomfortable I became, seeing that mound of parallels between Sunburst and me rising to a hill, and then a mountain. I find a lot in him that I recognize from myself. Ah well. Anyway, this line. This one line just... broke me.
'I have feelings'. It's just... yeah, it's cringy as heck, it's hilarious. 'Sometimes I'm annoyed, or frustrated. You know? I have feelings! Right now, I'm feeling... slightly hungry!' On a rational level, I know that it shouldn't even be that funny. Or funny at all. But somehow I just couldn't stop laughing for a solid minute or so.
Ah, good one. Now let's move on to the last chapter.
That dumpster fire-string of comments made me chuckle a little. Good one.
It feels like there is sooo much wrong with this. I'll keep it short. No one wants essays on that stuff. So a) I didn't 'pull through'. This was not a chore. This did not, at any point, feel like work. Or boring. Or tedious. This was fun. This was enjoyable. A lot, actually. Therefore, a 'reward' to 'reach' the end should not be necessary. B) I'm not here for the explicit content anyway. It's a nice bonus. Many stories can profit from not adhering to what a PG-rating demands. Not in terms of audience size, obviously, but just by feeling more, well, realistic. Because 'reality' does associate with violence and cursing and sex.
Getting off-track, so a little course-correction. I'm not here for the explicit content. I'm here because at some point, I walked past a title. The title of a story. And there were some colorful signs telling me roughly what to expect. Character names. And genre tags. And I thought: Hey, that sounds like something I could be interested in. So I put it on a shelf and swore to read it sometime. 'Sometime' sometimes turns out to be quite... late. And I always feel horrible about that, but I cannot change it. Now I got around to this one. And it was great. It was exactly what I hoped for. It was fun, it was enjoyable, it made me smile, it entertained me, it gave me a few little questions to ask myself and mull over. It even made me feel something. Joy. (And occasional pangs of annoyance caused by relatability, but we don't talk about that.)
Haaah, I'm rambling again, aren't I? Long story short, you did good. And I'm grateful.
Thank you for writing!
