I like how this situation was handled. Very mature from both of them.
Oh, I dunno... Ted and Starla?

Oddly enough, I must agree. The entire situation was handled in a very mature manner.
So, now where does this go from here? At least, Midnight is maturing in her way, and not being so confrontational as she has been in the past. She must still be processing Starla's input...
And so it begins..... excited to see how things develop and play out between them. The situation is very different from things I usually see. This is a wild ride for sure.
Surprisingly the hardest part about communicating is using your words. Not knowing what to say, how to say, or even having words for what you feel. Midnight could use some of Starla's experience right now but she's gonna have to learn some things her own way.
At least she managed to upgrade from the couch to the bed.
So will we find out if she's a blanket hog? Is she a kicker? Keep rolling and pushing till he ends up on the floor at 3 in the morning?
This exceeded my expectations. It wasn't as if I expected Midnight to flag John and egg him on to look at her if that's what he wanted. A mature examination of what happened and trying to understand the messy feelings underneath and giving way to the start of a real relationship is amazing. I'll admit that given the pace of the story that I would be disappointed in them simply going for it without a few more chapters of dialogue and teasing.
Here's a crazy idea that the author can use with my blessing. I would really like for Midnight to get drunk again, on purpose, and have John record her answering relationship questions so she can analyze her drunk responses later while sober. Force her to come to terms with how drunk her sees John.

And so it begins? Is that supposed to be a Babylon 5 quote?
11836357
John might not mind her being a kicker
11836376
Never watched the movie, so idk lol
I like that John and Midnight were able to talk things out openly and honestly.
Now I wonder if we'll be getting that 'Mystery' to 'Romance' tag change.
11836245
Turns out she was just not a morning pony lol
Honestly I expected drama, and I am glad it's a very different type... Very well written.
11836369
I dunno. With the video evidence she might swear off booze for good; "once burned, twice shy" as they say.
While it's unlikely the hardware in her brain was bothered by it, it makes be wonder how it reacted to the rest of the "wetware" going loopy on the sauce. There's very little backstory on those chips(?) other than they're from a Princess Twilight and Luna model. Are they read-only personality data? Do they have any functions Midnight could, with a lot of practice, actually use?
11836481
Honestly, I'm not even sure if they work, or have ever worked. Midnight mentioned the Corpo guys used her as a guinea pig and put stuff into her to check if it works or to see what would happen - maybe the chips failed and all they did was scramble Shadow's mind?
Those are all assumptions on my part, but to me, other than the compulsive desire for knowledge, I don't see much of Twilight or Luna in Midnight personality-wise. She seems to be her own pony entirely.
Eeeee this update made my day even better!!
Yah!
I love the chemistry between John and Middie. Easily one of my top favorite stories on this site.
Excellent,. Top 4 for me
I love this
Aww!
I'll echo what some of the other commenters have said. It's refreshing how mature they're being about this! The interactions in this story have just been fantastic all-around.
This story is such a breath of fresh air when it comes to how sober the dialogue is. Too many stories take the route of a ‘dense character cast for comedic purposes’ cliche.
This truly tickles the hopeless romantic within me! I can’t wait for them to wake up snuggled together!
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

It was probably (I don't think it was directly word for word) stated that the twilight/luna module were more of a foundation for her personality to be built from and considering she's organic she's def changed from them like humans change personalitys over time. If she was 100% robo then she's would have hard traits from both
Congrats on breaking 100k my dude, wonderful story and a actual food romance with a interesting world building. I wonder if as time goes on and their relationship grows it takes a bit of a backseat to idk show more of the world and the company that originally made the pony bots.
I think some second person slipped in here.
Alert! Alert! We are entering the Danger Zone.

There are some discussions about the chips in Chapters 15 (near the end) and 16 (middle). Teddy’s assessment in 15 seems pretty fair, so it seems like the chips have had some impact. But yeah, as you said, Midnight’s personality is clearly changing and is so much more than just some hard-wired mannerisms.

Midnight refusing to drink again would be good for her, but drinking to explore her feelings would be entraining for us, the audience. I don't mind if my comments break the 4th wall.
You think we can petition the site to let us put an upvote per chapter instead of one per story, cause I would upvote nearly every chapter if I could.
Re-reading this for the third time, it sounds like Midnight had accepted that John had slept with her and then was shocked to find that he hadn't. His respect for her boundaries was refreshing. Clearly the best thing he could have done.

I can't say a whole lot without giving up parts of an ensuing chapter, but you know how confused Midnight was about what a 'friend' is? I don't think she has a grasp on what John is looking for.

There isn't too much reference to them from here on out and I don't have any one-shots pertaining to the 'trial run' yet(?) so I will say that those chips unfortunately scrambled her noggin, but did not completely remake her. The presence just shifted her personality into a different direction, as Teddy was able to point out certain nuances.
Did the scientists doing the experiment know that was going to be the outcome? Doubt it - if Midnight's tearful tirade is anything to go by, they weren't even sure she could survive the tweaks. Perhaps they have failed now - it's hard to say, but the initial effects from their introduction remain. Midnight was Shadow, but Shadow as she was known got lost in that personality shift, for better or for worse.
Perhaps alcohol brings back the old Shadow for a few fleeting glimpses - or Midnight really is just your stereotypical happy drunk. I don't think there will ever be a concise answer on that, either.

I've had the relative misfortune of using it or at least thinking it mote as I am a quarter mile from the border of a state that's had it legalized for a few years now and live in a state that just legalized it. Don't have an issue with its usage, but I'd rather not have to smell it. Or worse, smell it in a workplace dealing with machinery that can fuck you up or kill someone else. /rant

John will be her dakimakura by morning, I think
11838448
As long as she doesn't smother him under a wing or lie right on his face like a cat will (trying to express dominance over their human?)
11838646
You know, I've always heard about kitty face warmers, but my current two cats and my prior one have never lay on my face. All three were rescues, so maybe they don't feel that entitlement, lol.
11838646
I don't know...most guys love it when the girl they like sits on their face.
Really enjoyable chapter. Very well written. Glad John and Midnight where able to work things out between themselves without too much damage.
