nice work

Personally the pacing in the story feels a bit off. The romantic elements arrive too quickly without enough real buildup, and something feels a tad creepy about Haven falling in love with a mare in the same age range as her own daughters.

Her daughters would be 18-20 in this story, not the same as 25....

An age gap of 13 years doesn't really matter when both are well into adulthood and have no prior connections to each other.

I’m concerned that Opaline might try something because it seems like she could get anywhere. At the same time a lot of that was Misty’s doing.

18-20 year old daughters at 38, eh? Talk about a young mother.

I'll concede on the age issue as on reflection 13 years isn't the largest I've seen in a fanfic. But I still feel things move too fast. The idea of Misty gaining a proper parent figure makes for a great concept, but I believe this merits a multi-chapter story. As it is, it doesn't really cut the mustard for me.

Having said all that, the story is well executed on a technical level. I noticed you have written other G5 stories, so I think I'll give those a try.

That would make for a great story.

who will stop her?

Herself, or anyone with a functioning brain. Duh.

If the movie was anything to go by, none of the guards at Zephyr Heights have functioning brains. They frequently wander off and neglect their duties, take telephone calls whilst doing their jobs, are generally incompetent, and run around in circles whilst being shot at, showing a complete lack of tactics or strategy in the process. It's either a strange writing decision on the part of the film-makers or a conscious writing choice to show that each race has become overconfident in their ability to wage war. If the unicorns had chosen to go on the offensive during the Crystal Incident, I suspect the pegasi would have had their asses handed to them.

a beginning of a longer tale, and yet it just ends here. not complaining about having read about it though. it really made me think of the fascinating possibilities, good job and thanks for the tale.:raritywink: also about the age stuff, i heard it somewhere that typically one has to be at least eighteen years old or half the age of their romance partner plus seven years, whichever is greater, to be accepted. that doesn't work here but i suppose it is close enough.:twilightsheepish:
