In this short and sweet tale, Hitch, with the help of a new set of wings, tries to impress a royal pegasus. However, he seems to have made a significant mistake regarding the practices of pegasi.
I would like to thank Shrinky Frod for pre-reading and editing this; especially in helping to make the character voices more appropriate and expanding on the rather basic ideas presented.
As a general content warning, this story contains cringeworthy self-humiliation, a brief dialogue relating to virginity and shipping.
Could've had a little more to this.

Admittedly, I just had a really quick idea and thought that adding too much more would have padded out the joke and made it gone on for too long, hence why the story is so short. But thank you for the feedback.

Nah, you should continue this! Even if nobody else likes it, imma like it.
Sequel please? I wanna see the pegasus sisters actually impressed by Hitch and Zoom. Pipp with Hitch. (Pitch?) and Zipp with Zoom. (Zoop?)

I'll have to see if a story idea along those lines comes to me. This was admittedly just a couple of funny scenes that my brother and i discussed.

But credit rainbowdas7, a pegasister on Scratch, for making up the ship name, Pitch, and making a G4 version of Hitch proposing to Pipp, and both of them having tattoos on their necks with each others’ names.
Chicken Hitch!
This was hilarious!
This was quite a funny story. I loved it when Hitch clucked like a chicken.
Keep up the good work! This is going on my favorites bookshelf.
You forgot the space between words here.
And now, if you'll excuse me, I am going to break down into hysterical laughter. 🤣
So, can we get a follow up where Izzy teaches Sunny to flirt like a unicorn? I think that would be a lot of fun too.
Congrats on the new adventure!! McDVoice Survey
The scene at the end where the sisters are hiding from the public in the old zeppelin/blimp/air ship station, pushed a fairly simple silly fic, to something to go on the favorites shelf!

Ya know, for something that could have be seen as outrageously racist, Pipp and Zipp are being really good sports about it.
So where did Hitch get the idea to imitate bird courting dances, to seduce pegasi?

Did he come up with that on his own, was it part of the old isolationist teachings, or was someone (maybe Sprout) messing with the lonely Sheriff?
Ya know, based on the fact that Hitch got an immediate first date with both of the royal sisters after the "traditional pegasus courting dance", it actually worked.

Despite Zipp's assertion that they're not birds.

Honestly, I was inspired to do this mostly by the "pegasi are birds" meme. I'm not entirely sure where Hitch got the idea, but given that it's also implied that pegasi are believed to eat their young, I can see it coming from similarly racist teachings. The fact that it winds up getting the two sisters, thereby winning them over, does carry some implications I had not thought about at the time, and were I to give the story a revisit, I probably would have gone with something else. It was just something that my pre-reader and I thought would be funny to have happen, with funny in universe consequences like it catching on and becoming a new meme in Zephyr Heights.
