Aww.
I do wish Silver Spoon had gotten more closure. I'm glad you were able to explore this though.
LOVE THIS
The narrowness of Silver Spoon's perspective is blown open really well, and the ending is really sweet.
Added to several groups so more people can see this.
Twist has a point. Silver Spoon didn't change her attitude towards anyone else, far as we know. She didn't abandon Diamond Tiara because of moral reasons, she just didn't want anything done to herself.

Thank you! I'm not a member of any groups that are oriented around sharing genre/character/plot/etc centric content, so I don't do much to circulate them myself.
Short and to the point.
I wish Hasbro did something interesting to Silver's character. Anyway, this story leads to an interesting start. Keep it up dude! 8/10
This was beautiful 🤩
https://m.And loved the dramatic reading 🥰
It's THESE kind of short, intimate encounters that we could've had on the show itself... if they'd given their abundant supporting cast more time to shine, that is...
That was a good story.
I remember having a certain dislike for Silver Spoon despite absolutely loving Diamond Tiara. Silver Spoon always follwed Diamond Tiara's lead but would immediately leave her high and dry when the crowd would turn against her, like she did in "Family Appreciation Day." Diamond Tiara was a bitch, but she would always own her bitchiness even when it made her unpopular, as it often did. Did Diamond Tiara apologize for going all J. Jonah Jameson in "Ponyville Confidential?" Hell no! She blew a raspberry. There is something respectable in that, in a childish playgroud sense. Silver Spoon was like a hyena following a lion--happy to feast together but not to fight together.
So, yeah, I'm with Twist here. The'th the wortht.
um fried foods for breakfast rules?
dang, not even getting Twist to hang out with you, that is quite the L
ahaha, great idea to have Twist to be the one saying it
aww!
love that the song happened literally in the universe as an event ponies can make reference to, and also that the lack of a song is a sign of not having had any character growth or repentance
so true for, like, the entire series in general
aww, friendship!
lovely look at a supporting character finally getting to exist outside of the narrow context she was confined to in the canon. and not just Silver Spoon, but Twist herself really fell off the face of Equestria after the first few seasons. thank you for writing!
There’s something weirdly hilarious about explicitly mentioning a spontaneous musical number in the middle of calling someone out. Likewise Twist’s exasperation at the end as she realizes Silver’s being sincere, and has thus backed her into a corner and forced her to be the bigger pony.
Excellent use of two fillies the narrative forgot once they’d outlived their usefulness. I do feel like somepony else should’ve come in—Cheerilee if nopony else—but that’s the word limit working against you. All told, great bit of interpersonal drama, even if you probably didn’t mean for it to be as funny as I found it.

Hm, interesting that you found those things humorous. I can see the song coming across that way, especially if the story takes a humorous tone in general, but I wouldn't have expected the ending to seem funny. There have been several stories where I reference a song (or just the show's tendency to have them in general) as a matter-of-fact thing about life in Equestria and had never considered a reader might take it as a full-on joke. There are some show songs that are detached from the plot and could be taken more as a character's internal musings, but there are some that advance the plot while they're going, so while it's still plausible to see that as a conceit such that the characters themselves don't perceive it as a song, I find it interesting to do the opposite. Though that of course doesn't mean a reader is going to take it in the light I intended.
