      +that sounds like the kind of story I would enjoy. If it gets up you're guaranteed at least one read.

      Thank you, but it ended up being a clopfic anyways, which of course doesn't get uploaded here. I may make a clean version, but I'm working on a different story to send here.

      But yeah, someone should totally write it. TWILIGHTxSOAPBOX

      It's not cloppy. Not sure where you're getting that, other than the implications (and that's it) of the last scene.

      I,for one, rather enjoyed it, if only because the humor was timed perfectly.

      Implied sex with a ROCK is now classified as a "clop fic" with you people? Grow up.

      If you didn't want to read it because of that, you don't need to post about it. Just look away and don't speak up.

      And then Tom went down on Rarity...

      The next day.. or at least the next sudden transition from moonlight to sunlight... Twilight and the others arrived at Carousel Boutique to un-Discord Rarity. Upon finding no sign of Rarity on the ground floor, Twilight ventured upstairs and into Rarity's bedroom. There she saw the consequences of a 2-ton boulder rolling atop a pony...

      Slowly descending the stairs with a queasy expression, she said, "Well girls... we need a new Element of Generosity..."

      So I went into this fic expecting goofiness what I didn't expect was such a cleverly written piece. This was fantastic especially considering what the author had ta work with. Even Tom himself in Rarity's eyes could not outshine what a gem this is.

      I believe that was Fluttershy in "I'd Like To Be A Tree".

      AJ was mentioned doing this in Parasailing I believe, but I don't think I've seen a full one with AJ and Bloomberg.
