Meeting herself was not really something Sunset had ever planned to do. But once she does, she insists that they’re different people. What that leads to is something she was not expecting to enjoy.

Honestly I would love to see a nsfw version of this
11025632
Yeah thats fair haha
I kind of want to see shimmer’s reaction to equestria. I wonder if she’d look that much more different when through the mirror and most of all… I kind of want to see some more romance of the uh… y’know… fluffy hand holding / hoof holding variety…
11025786
Hmm now that’s definitely a thought!
And how could you bring up HAND/HOOF HOLDING on my SFW story smh smh
Now that is what I call self love
11025815
Shes just being kind to herself
11025815
Wait 'til you see mine.
Did she actually have a "what would Appleack do?" moment?
11026084
all good decisions are made if you consider “WWAD” (what would applejack do)
Sounds like a Twinlight Sparklecest Spinoff
11026556
Haha, the sequel nobody asked for
Heh, that was funny. Now I want to know what Shim's job was. Thanks for the read.
Kinda wish we had a, errrrr, NSFW verison of this...
Selfcest is always fun.

You know, you’re not the first one to say that...
Of course, I like making people happy so I am writing one, but whether or not it will ever see the light of day is undetermined. Guess we’ll see :P
Great job! Got some laughs outta me and I love it!
11027128
Hah thanks! I’m glad you liked it :>
I approve of this.
11027257
>:) good
I like it!
11027718
Thanks!
This was a nice read!
Wonderful horse words!
11028133
Aw thank you! That means a lot to me :>
11026576
Asking here...
11029115
Hehe, we’ll see....
I loved this story and it’s definitely one of my favorite entries in the competition I hope to see more from you.
Also agree with everyone else an NSFW version would be great
11029902
Thank you! That sure means a lot :)
And haha I know, everyone keeps saying they want an NSFW version :P
We’ll see…
So I am being chased by some (evil?) doppelgänger through the streets? My first thoughts will be on safety and protection. I have never read a more creepy non evil sunset as this one; I would of caved it’s head it and let the MiBs figure out the rest.
I can’t even finish this; suspension of disbelief is so completely shattered by character thoughts and reactions it feels just random.
11030156
hmm i dont know if everyone would resort to violence in that situation. maybe just you? lets hope you dont meet anyone who resembles you :P
excellent hook. as always, your descriptions are vivid without being overwrought, with just enough poetry to connect to deeper themes, intended or not. the reflection on a shattered mirror is a trope for a reason!
ah, love the tension and release here. still felt it, even though the place in the story made it clear it would be nothing. that is skill!
great texture in this moment here. so understated, yet effective in contrasting the two versions of Sunset, despite the latter still being just an anonymous rider.
ah, the shipping starts early and appropriately, i love it!
now that is a character intro
haha, love this subversion of the earlier buildup
the repetition of "skin" is the only thing that mars this great sequence
perfection
made me go back to Obelus to check, but that was a telephone pole, not a ditch!
ah, such a classic shipfic setup, played straight. love it!
this is so Sunset of Shimmer. i would fall for it too, if i were Sunset
nice catch there!
aaaaaa this is such great escalation! exactly how tension between two versions of an easily-frustrated Sunset would go!
oh, this is great. that peppering-in of a detached, scientific tone to contrast with the sensuality of what came before. it's the kind of thing i love writing, and thus reading. i swear, you are tailoring this to me specifically.
this entire note is gold
perfection
hahaha oh noooooo
great use of Sci-Twi to lampshade the more uncomfortable interpretations of this!
well that is certainly one way to react to that revelation. if magical unicorns are real, everything is permitted
a question for the ages! one certainly not resolved by the fic itself, though it does make a good case that the Sunsets would have a good time if they ignored all that.
well this was absolutely fantastic. a tour de force of possibly narcissistic, possibly morally uncomfortable romance. everything i could have ever wanted from the premise played straight. thank you so much, jay!

Omg this comment made me smile so hard! I’m glad you enjoyed what I put out there haha. All the things you pointed out were definitely things I had hoped you would enjoy so >:) success!!!
I was half asleep before reading this (I’m on hour two of a 6 hour bus ride and I get sleepy on vehicles) but you filled me with so much joy I’m wide awake again!
Thanks for the nice comment!
I'll leave a quick comment because I'm at work. Loved the story and loved the depiction of the characters. I haven't read many of these sorts, with the self-shipping, but I really enjoyed this one. I really hope for more!

Aw thank you for the comment :> I find that there isn’t a lot of self-shipping on here that isn't just smut, so I definitely am glad that people enjoyed this one. Thanks again :)
11059597
barkeep, I demand another
11128908
ask and you shall receive
(probably)
11128963
thanks : )
If this is wrong I don’t wanna be right. It’s a shame that handsome devil in the mirror isn’t available
11310976
hands down the best possible comment
Not bad.
As a person who has driven along the icy roads of New England and experienced hydroplaning, you did a good job of capturing my worst fears.
Thankfully, Human!Shimmy was there to give Pony!Shimmy love and cuddles.
11323442
Haha, Canadian here! I totally get what you mean. I’ve been in cars that’ve hydroplaned quite a fair bit. Super scary! Thanks for the comment :)
11323556
Don't mention it.
awwwwwwww! i loved that, every bit of it
especially every time sunset thinks to herself that shimmer's totally hot though and then says it out loud. perfection!
11360348
Hey thanks! Means a lot
I think its a funny idea to have Sunset speak her mind a lot since her power is that she can hear peoples thoughts/see their memories, hehe
I usually try to write a comment immediately after I've read something. The obvious advantage of that is that everything is still fresh in my mind. The disadvantage is that... I still require a bit of time to sort through the jumbled mess in my head and some things, some lessons or interpretations or morals, only really come to fruition days or even weeks later. At which point I usually cannot remember where they were sparked from. Ah well.
It's an interesting angle, this one. It could only ever work with someone with impressive self-confidence, I think. Which is why Sunset works splendidly, even though I have to agree with Twilight. It's weird. I know that there's a sequel to this one. (My next tab, in fact.) I'm curious how this will... continue. Sunset admitted that she was partially afraid to ever encounter herself, because she didn't trust any version of herself. Which, you know... I get that. Something still drove her to seek Shimmer out though. And on the other side, Shimmer showed up in Sunset's life for the first time. After she had been living here for years. With all the weirdness going on in town, it's harder to believe that Shimmer never noticed any of that. So maybe she's new to town. Maybe this job is new to her. If so, something pulled her here. Maybe it was something mundane, sure. Convenience. But she had dreams as well. Maybe she was pulled here as well. And at that point, it's starting to toy with the concept of fate, isn't it?
I'm probably reading too much into this. But that's a fun part of all of this.
Shimmer took all this surprisingly well. And quickly, too. It didn't really take any 'convincing'. And she was the one initiating anything beyond conversation. I'm curious to see where this will lead.
Thank you for writing!

Thanks for the comment! I agree with the idea that this would only work with someone with confidence. I think it would have been so much harder to write this story had it not been Sunset because not only is she confident, but I feel like she’s already lived through some weird stuff.
And yeah, I do also agree that it’s weird, haha. I think magbe fate could be part of it. Maybe good old convenience for the sake of the story. Who knows?
Again thanks for the comment!
11444885
Convenience for the sake of the story? Pch, preposterous!
I think you need someone... hrm, for a lack of a better phrase: Who is 'in tune' with himself. Or herself, obviously. Someone who's seen his or her own abyss and came to some sort of balance with it. And I suppose being bi- or homosexual helps a lot, too.
I'm really not sure if this story would have worked with anyone else. I'm trying to replace Sunset with others. Twilight. Pinkie. Rainbow. It works with some, but never quite as well as with her. Interesting.
But it seems like you'll find out sooner than later.
slow, not slowly*
That is clearly a red flag!
Why does she have that?
Why does Sunset have beer, she's not legally allowed to drink yet.
Yep.
Either she misplaced it or Shimmer took it.
