High above the picturesque city of Cloudsdale, Soarin crafts a touching proposal surprise for his beloved partner, Thunderlane. Yet, popping the question isn't as simple as a heartfelt declaration. Before Soarin can ask for Thunderlane's wing in marriage, he finds himself on a heartwarming quest to seek the blessing of a little foal.

He may not need his approval, but I believe it is a sign of respect towards Rumble. It makes him feel a part of a major decision and step forward in their life together. Thunderlane is obviously very involved in Rumble's daily life much like a father-brother type. Some people act like older siblings are secondary parents (I know I was subject to that, having a large age gap between me and my younger sibling) so I was picturing that scenario of asking for approval from a young child of a single-parent story, but in this case they happened to be brothers.
Also, I am aware that in some relationships asking for "approval" is an outdated practice. It's really whatever you are comfortable with or whatever is important to your partner that matters, not pushing for one practice over the other.

Perfect.

You can respect someone enough to consider their approval worth the effort to gain, even if that someone is a kid.

Just seems odd. I'm not even hating on the story either with that comment.
11746787
Maybe, but you are missing the point.
11746744
ok, maybe not traditionally. But I think it is important to take into consideration that Rumble cares very much for his older brother and vice versa. They clearly spend a lot of time together and their opinions matter greatly to each other. If Rumble wasn't approving of Soarin that would weigh heavily on their relationship, far more than in a traditional family dynamic.
Just watch the episode with Rumble and Thunderlane.

I just downvoted the story. Is that, uh, the right thing to do? That’s what you wanted, right?

The comments. Not the story itself.
Sometimes I check the comments to see what others think of the story prior to me reading it.
I don't read enough of this kind of fic, but I can somewhat say that most male/male fics I've come across tends to draw the downvotes. Worst still arr ones that get featured. Congrats on getting onto the feature box, Wordsmith!
Why is there a disparaity? Female/female stories here do just fine; just look at Bon Bon and Lyra. I don't really want to say that fimfiction has some male homophobia, but the downvotes don't lie.
Anyway, I'll push this story up in my backlog.

I also want to point out that seeking approval doesn't mean the relationship with your partner stops if they denied it. Personally, it's how difficult or strong your relationship with your parents/siblings/approver would become. This is one of the largest trial anyone could face in this era.
Really sad to see most of these comments. I think Soarin was right to want to get Rumble's approval before proposing to Thunderlane. Marriage would mean Rumble would become part of Soarin's world too.
Everyones mad cause its not porn.

And then I note certain proclivity leaning horse word afficianadoes, and must add the addendum "yet."

that would indeed capture the essence of Thunderlane’s bold personality! and of course wing bands would be the equivalent of wedding rings for pegasi, that is a nice touch
aww, adorable! though the alternative, Rumble calling Soarin’ his new brother-in-law, does sound strange
dang, Soarin’ is good at this proposal thing
for some reason this feels very Scootaloo-esque
and what a magical end to this magical tale, just a heartwarming story all-around. thank you for writing!
