Twinkie Sprinkle


Starting to get back in the fandom again.

E
Source

Years after young Rainbow Dash is adopted by one of Equestria's greatest heroes, she races to defend her mother's honor...triggering a peculiar twist of fate.

A collaborative effort between myself and Spectrum Sparkle of Deviantart, creator of the story's universe. A complete tale detailing the origins of Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, and their friendship.

Watch'd. Let's see where this goes.

Seems interesting enough to risk a watch. Did notice something though. Somewhere in the beginning, you have HTML codeing <i> </i>. Fim uses bbcode, just replace the carrots with brackets.

Looking forward for more!

Well, we're off to an interesting start, at least.
Question though. Why does it say 'Complete' when the story clearly is not done being told?

Glad to have caught your interest. :scootangel:

Oh, my bad, I'd better edit the description. :rainbowderp: The idea was for this story to be the "pilot episode" in a continuing universe without a clear end, but the way I set things up made it look like there would be more chapters posted for this specific story in the universe. So, thanks so much for pointing that out, I'm admittedly naive when it comes to this sort of thing and have much to learn. :twilightblush:

Other then editing the description, I'll also be posting another story in the universe today, the other one that my writing partner and I have finished. Hopefully things will become more clear in light of all that...and once again, thanks so much for you feedback. :pinkiehappy:

Derp. :derpyderp2: I found the bit of coding you were talking about in the "Twi talks to her mother scene," thanks so much for pointing that out, I totally missed it. :twilightblush:

I also feel silly for not realizing sooner that I could reply to multiple comments in a single post...I'll keep that in mind for the future. :scootangel:

No prob. I've made similar mistakes.

Oh that's right, and Soarin is most definitely not a girl. :twilightsheepish: Thanks for pointing that out, it is now fixed. :rainbowwild:

Well, this was certainly very interesting! :twilightsmile:
I'll be sure to read the next one, and I'll be looking forward to more stories in this universe :pinkiehappy:

I have found a few typos and misspellings though, so my grammar-naziness is making me frustrated :rainbowwild:

Thanks for picking up on existence of other typos, you've helped me improve the story that much more. :pinkiehappy: I read through the whole story again, and managed to separate "fur coat" into two words, change a couple instances of "cactuses" to "cacti," remove an instance of single quotations around one of Rainbow's thoughts before the race scene that was in italics, and correct the spelling of "devastating." :twilightsmile: Feel free to let me know if you think I need to check it again, though! :scootangel:

And I'm very happy that this story, and its universe caused such positive feelings in you...I'm sure that my writing partner will be very happy about that too. :raritystarry:

1714655

Haha, no problem :twilightsmile:
If you ever need help, I'm happy to proof-read anything for you :scootangel:
I'll be sure to point out any typos for you in Fluttershy's Return :rainbowlaugh:

Not to nitpick, but you also refer to Shining Armor as a "male filly" during the scene where Twilight Sparkle is named. :facehoof: Colt is the correct term for a male foal.

Other than that, it's looking like a great series! I'll definitely watch for more.

Your enthusiasm is much appreciated. ^^ While I've naturally seemed pretty dead lately, more is on the way soon. :twilightsmile:

1716211

My thanks, it has been fixed. :scootangel:

I see it listed as complete but it feels like its gonna be continued? So what you gonna make a new story or something or is it just done?

1833951

Apologies for the confusion, hee. :twilightblush: It's actually an origin story meant to set up a larger universe, so technically the continuations are found in the other stories on this account. :twilightsmile: I think my newbieness was showing a bit when I uploaded this story, but thanks to help from others I'm learning the ropes. :pinkiehappy:
