Sometimes, a dream can seem so close, yet so far.

The original speedwrite (in author's notes) was written for the Quills and Sofa's "Fiddlesticks" Speedwrite Contest, on Sep 9, 2023. This version was polished for publish since then.

I love plain pancakes and milk! :twilightsmile:

This is decently edited considering you, apparently, only did so in 15 minutes. I only detected a few errors while reading.

oh, no! This published is fic is after I've polished it quite a bit. The original speedwrite written in the time frame is the link in the author notes! I doubt I can write this well with just that time haha^^"

Interrupt: Siks-dea is sixty-ing again.

God, this is so fucking depressing.

Maybe... one day. She'll achieve her dreams. I really hope she does, this doesn't have a tragedy tag after all.

Dreams, so close and so far, a hurtful yet helpful reminder of us all.

This is a very grounded, non-rose-tinted look at what it can mean to have a dream you haven’t fulfilled. And yet I don’t find it depressing, because Fiddlesticks hasn’t given up on hers, and that makes me not want to give up on mine, either.

Thank you for a good fic.

Wow. Okay, this got a definite thumbs up from me. The last paragraph was... well, not quite a wham 'line', but a wham moment, which made every other part of the fic come together beautifully.

At least she can still play for her family. Someponies dont even get that luxury. And at least they are keeping their chin up.

its rough. But there's still hope.

I actually really enjoyed this a lot. It takes a concept that really isn’t explored that much in this fandom where not all dreams come true in a slice of life format. It adds to the personal touch and tugs at the heartstrings because we all have felt what Fiddlesticks is going through. Bravo! 👏

Oof, this one hurt. But at the same time, it's grounded. Having dreams so close yet so far away is a feeling that is not foreign to any of us.
