"Additional Tags: Short. Sweet. Saucy"

Am i the only one who gets hungry from reading that?

Metal Link said...

Rare Apple? Apple Jewel? This is hard.

@Netkev I just want to know why Saucy is highlighted in yellow as if that's the main reason to read the fic because it's saucy.

fireant said...

Not even close to Saucy, to be honest. I like the writing, I VERY like the characters - Rarity is SO much Rarity, as only Rarity Could Get, and this is enough for me to love it.

And because of that, I feel that even short tag is not enough to inform, how SHORT this was, and HOW much more I need to clo... to READ.

;)

Oh wow lol, i just read this on FanFiction.net, and when I click back to Equestria Daily there it is!

Anyways, it's a pretty nice story, maybe a little short but what's in there rocks. I swear, being a brony is slowly turning me furry...

Daffodil said...

I'm confused.

But I like it. And I want more.

A cute little story! I love suggestive stories that turn out to be somewhat innocuous, it's always good for a laugh in my book.

Andrew said...

I felt it was of appropriate length. Pretty well-made.

This is a good one. The writing is ambiguous enough that you could read it as just Rarity teaching Applejack to dance... or read it as something a bit more X-rated.

9Nine9 said...

Oh god that was, I think unintentionally, hilarious.

Saucy is an optional tag I think, just becuase it's SO ambiguous.

Kudos to the author.

First MLP fanfic I've read and it's actually good. Really actually good. Was not expecting it.

Very enjoyable, albeit the ambiguity was both fantastic and slightly comical. Characters were accurately portrayed, Rarity was awesome. Has anypony else ever noticed that any shipping involving Rarity almost always has her take the lead?

Appletini?

Miyajima said...

I suppose it speaks volumes of me that I instantly assumed they were just dancing and was wondering why it had been tagged as shipping. And somehow overlooked all the suggestive bits.

Rarejack? Jackity?

Lurks-no-More said...

Short, yes. Very short. But also sweet!

I'm very much hoping for sequels or expansions.

chinlamp said...

Rajack? Apity? R. Jack the 3rd?

I don't know.

This was good though, little short, but good.

9Nine9 said...

The pairing is refered to as AppleRare.

Gosh guys.

Decent, but predictable and generic as hell.

StreakTheFox said...

It wasn't bad...
It wasn't too good either, unfortunately. Kind of just the "same old same old" if you ask me. You did well author but, I would have liked a better story than "come to my barn so we can make out". Ya know?

My Little Pony: Dancing is Sensual?

Alice said...

@Anonymous: Probably because she fits the Older Woman stereotype a little bit, while the rest of them basically act like teenagers.

This was short and sweet, though. Write more! :)

Escher said...

I did rather see the twist coming from when the music started, but it was very cute none the less.

You really think Rarity would let anyone else lead?

Applerare just sounds tghe best, I think.

That or Rareapple... Bit Applerare writes better too.

Kkat said...

Oh this was a little piece of wonderful. Short, but beautiful; both Applejack and Rarity were perfectly in-character.

ultra8 said...

That rocked on a very hilarious level. Cleverly designed so you can (almost) read it both ways.
Keep it up.

Am I the only one who figured out they were dancing?
