Taking advantage of the extra snow because of winter, and wanting to spend more time together before they go to celebrate Hearth’s Warming with their families for the first time in years. Double Diamond and Night Glider turn their second date into a small skiing-adventure. However a small accident forces them to not only use mobility aids for a time, but also change their plans for the holiday completely.


Written as a gift for Blueninetails as part of Jinglemas 2023 (FiMFiction’s “secret Santa” event).

This was pretty cute! There are a couple of errors I noted here and there, but it didn't really bother me as I read through the story. I very much enjoyed how Night Glider and Double Diamond interacted, it was rather cute. I also did like the bit of creativity with some concepts such as the thing with the crackers (heard about them, just never seen one in real life) and the thing about Cloudsdale potentially being a flying/mobile fortress in the initial intent of its design.

All in all, I really liked it. Very cool work! Thank you!

Poor them, getting hurt like that.

Yep, is definitely not something pleasant to get injured in such a way, specially close to such an important holiday

Thank you, I’m glad to know you enjoy it :twilightsmile:

Regarding the mistakes, I just finished going trough the fic, most of them should be gone (sorry it took me this long). Hopefully that means re-reading this is more pleasant (I also added a bit more of info in the author’s note)

Honestly both the crackers and the whole “Cloudsdale was originally a fortress” were some random ideas / things that popped out of nowhere. I decided to implement in the story as a bit of “world building”; basically trying to make the world seem bigger by adding details, fun facts and distinctive stuff that gets mentioned in passing.

Anyway, again I’m glad to know you enjoy the gift. And again sorry for taking so long to answer, I had been very busy since Christmas

And to his credit it did work. Making Night chuckle as she imagined her coltfriend ramming into the tree in a cartoony fashion. Ending up hugging the tree before being covered in the snow, the impact shook off the branches.

Got to love the cartoon logic funny moments

The two mares were welcomed by a collection of exclaimed greetings as each pony continued with their self assigned task. With the exception of Diamond who excitedly walked up to them to say hello, greeting his marefriend with an awkward hug and kiss on the cheek.

Aww so cute 😍

“Feather Bangs! Come on dear!” The tree mares called, wanting to leave Diamond and Night alone so as to not get in their way. “One seco-” Before Feather Bangs could say a thing the 3 mares had jumped him and began to drag him out of the house. “Okay okay! Remember to toss a long in the chimney every now and then to keep the fire burning. We’ll be at Dear Darling’s house, if you need anything you know where to find us. Happy Hearth’s Warming and good luck!” He basically had to hold onto the door frame to finish, the door closing behind him.

Man feather bang is a lucky dude

“Wait, we are going to eat on the floor?” Nigh ask, even though she was helping him set everything up.

Awww this was a pretty nice story of these two ponies I've always liked them together so it looks like they were having a fun time skiing and this is night gliders first time and when they got down to the hills they accidentally bump into each other and crash causing them to get injured luckily it wasn't too major but unfortunately night had to stay grounded because of the wheelchair and Double Diamond felt bad for that so he decided to invite her for the holiday and it was nice that everybody tripped into get them ready for the holidays before they go to their separate ways and despite their disabilities it looks like they were having fun with each other and even having a loving moments with each other as well and I really like that this was a pretty good one keep up the good work
