Rainbow gets a breakup speech, along with all the reasons she sucks. She can fix it, though, right?

I'm quite happy with this piece, so I'll let it speak for itself.

Given that Appledash is basically canon from the last episode, I really enjoy stories that explore how they got passed their issues and became a real couple. This is great story and I wished that it wasn't 'complete' because it feels like there could be so much more to this.

Why the hell would Applejack be upset about having less taxes to pay?
That is just being plain stupid.

It's not about having to pay less taxes. It's about getting special treatment; and having someone else arrange that special treatment for you, without asking. It's about pride, and independence, and doing the correct thing as you see it.

And if anything, AJ is perhaps the most prideful of the mane six. Recall that early episode when AJ refuses any help from her friends when she was to harvest all of the apple trees on the farm. :ajsleepy:

This is a nice exploration of how these two would function in the early stages of a relationship!! They obviously care deeply for each other, but the issues they have from their rivalry wouldn't just disappear, they'd be something to work through!! Its nice to see that put down into a fic like this!!

Very nice little story.

Characterisation of AJ is a bit iffy, in my opinion. I can't imagine her comparing herself to a therapist. She is a farmer, in her world people are supposed to talk things through with friends and/or family (like Dash did).

Also, I can't imagine her expecting money for the food Dash ate. :applejackconfused: Not only it sounds like anty-hospitality (big no-no), it's also not how things work in a village in general. If she thought that Dash owed her, she would make her work (as Dash does in the show) or ask her to repay the favor in kind. No way she would accept money from a family member (she refers to her friends as such in the show) or from somepony she is romantically involved with.

The ending also seems very abrupt. But wholesome. :ajsmug:
