Hi there commenters.
ReplyDeleteworld is going to end eh? book marked
ReplyDeleteAwww yeah, I hope there's more RainbowPie incoming! A great lack of it for a while, but it's returning! Definitely going to read this.

ReplyDeleteOhai
Friendshipping?
ReplyDeleteMeh...
Sounds heartwarming
ReplyDeleteGrowing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional. Stay young-hearted.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a dream I had one time,
ReplyDeletebut Dash ships an't for me
@WizardShy
ReplyDeleteHello! :D
on topic: Cute story. Pretty funny. Got some chuckles out of me, and the end was both sad and kinda cute at the same time. Nice work :)
I read it. Didn't like it too much. A few too many mechanical errors for me, and the portal reference kinda threw me off...
ReplyDeleteAww...
ReplyDeleteFriendshipping is best shipping.
Makes me want to listen to 'Smile, Smile, Smile'...
ReplyDelete*SLAP*
I mean- No! I regret nothing!
*BANG*
This story actually brought tears to my eyes. Very well written, incredibly cute and the moral wasn't too obvious from the very start.
ReplyDeleteIn short, I really enjoyed this. Looking forward to reading more from this author.
'Twas just a flesh wound!
ReplyDeleteI found myself skipping through most of the story, which would make me believe that the story was very shallow, but Pinkie Cry had me on the verge of tears. I'm really not sure about the story, but I know that I didn't not like it.
I was ALMOST about to cry. It didn't help that I was listening to "Lets play Pretend" by Lights. XD Cute, has a great moral, and the shipping part is so small its almost unnoticeable, for those who don't like PinkieDash.
ReplyDeleteTHESE are the kind of stories we need to see on EqD more often. Sure it's short and simple, but so very powerful in its own right.
ReplyDeleteThank you for a fantastic read, AbsoluteAnonymous!
@Masquerade Didn't not like it... never post none of ALL of the double negatives!
ReplyDeleteBetween the fact that I was reading this and listening to "Smile Smile Smile" on repeat at the same time, I definitely started crying near the end. This was wonderful.
ReplyDeletethis sounds like a really fun journey.
ReplyDeleteMakes perfect sense for the most childish pony to be terrified of growing up. It is, after all, scary stuff, but with the right friends you don´t really have to.
ReplyDeleteThe ending was suprisingly relatable and I chuckled a couple of times (and got reminded to finish portal 2)very nice story.
Sounds like that one episode of Spongebob where Squidward fed him the "bomb". I'll have to watch this.
ReplyDeletethat was cute :p
ReplyDeleteThis is just what I didn't know I wanted. Yay!
ReplyDeleteLoved it. This is one of my favorite PinkieDash stories now. :)
ReplyDeleteSPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!!
ReplyDeleteOh, erm, sorry about that. What I mean to say was...
FRIENDSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIPP!!!!
Eeyup.

ReplyDeletei loved this fic so much, it put me in the mood i get when i think about MLP:FIM inevitably ending.
ReplyDelete:(
and a lot of Pinkie's dialogue near the end seemed to be allegory for that, two hooves up
Despite numerous grammatical and mechanical errors, I liked this, AA.
ReplyDeleteSounds like something Pinkie would do, and while I don't like shipping as a general rule, friend shipping is a fine thing, indeed.
Really pulled this off. Good job. Never grow up.
Man, so I've been hunting down PinkiexDash stuff for a while, and suddenly unexpected influx of it! I am a happy, happy filly. ^________^
ReplyDeleteWow. That was a really powerful story. I cried a little when Pinkie was talking about how she didn't want to grow up. I don't know why, but it reminded me of the last strip of Calvin and Hobbes. So sad, yet so happy at the same time.
ReplyDelete@DiZaster321 Same thing I thought of.
ReplyDeleteTo me, the best shipping of all has always been friendshipping.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this. God bless you, AbsoluteAnonymous.
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3
ReplyDeleteEyup. This story sounds like life alright.
ReplyDeleteGood story. Short and sweet and very funny at times as well as sad. Sad Pinkie pie makes me sad.
ReplyDeleteThat was really enjoyable, nice and sweet with some good characterisation, well done! :)
ReplyDeleteA short, cute story with a powerful meaning behind it? Blasphemy!
ReplyDeleteI actually laughed at Pinkie's letter - guess it was one of those "so dumb it's funny" moments. Anyway... my reactions are identical to the review that was posted above so let me just say: my heart exploded twice reading this. Excellent job, and take my five stars!
5 stars. This is definitely worth your time reading.
ReplyDeleteFun read. I liked the reveal. Still, I can't help but feel the ending could have been more. It was good, certainly, but it still feels as if the real treasure lies just a little deeper, if you know what I mean.
ReplyDeleteGreat. Thanks for the cryfest. (totally awesoms atory that aside).
ReplyDeleteTo me, that ending was simply great. Very good, heartwarming and cute story. My 5 stars. Take all of them. Nao!
ReplyDeletethis was awsome!
ReplyDeleteperfect ending to, amazing how much meaning one can put into two simple words...
And if you havn't read the story yet then no, the words are not "the end" :P
The description made me think that Pinkie was dying or something. Glad I was wrong.
ReplyDeleteSo that last line... yeah, that was pretty damn near the best possible way to end that story. alright, this gets a 5 star rating. Was it the most well written? no. Was is astoundingly long with superb plot and character development. nope. grammatical errors and typo's? yep.
ReplyDeleteBut did it deliver a moral and message that perfectly fit the spirit of the show, Pinkie's character, all while being a touching life lesson? will I walk away from reading this with a slightly changed perspective on life?
Oh yeah. Kudos author. this was a sweet little story.
What Risky said.
ReplyDeleteThis story, while flawed and not a "masterpiece", did what it set out to do. It delivered a happy, fun message well in line with the tone of the show and was enjoyable read despite its problems; and should be towards the top of the list for people looking for Episode-like stories.
5/5.
Amazing. That's all I can say.
ReplyDeleteI'll keep this in mind, for sure.
Cute and touching. I still would have liked to see something big though.

ReplyDeleteI relate to Pinkie Pie so much in this story. It was simple and profound at the same time. I loved it.
ReplyDeleteAnother one of those stories I remember reading several months ago, when I first got into this whole shipping thing.. It's really quite adorable.
ReplyDeleteFriendshipping is best ship.
ReplyDeleteIt's not perfect, but it kept me smiling throughout the whole reading, and that's what matters.
