New one-shot story: Ripstop
Added 2021-05-10 22:49:45 +0000 UTCThis was originally supposed to go up last month -- or at least, that's when I had the idea. But Fleur wound up taking over April, needed to get the first word in for May, and... well, most of you know Fleur. At some point, I had to draw a line in the dirt and tell her to stand behind it for a while.
This is about Rarity and Rainbow, and there's a little bit in there about kites. (The Discord chat made the expected jokes about Starlight.) I'm guessing that some people will see this as the 'verse answer to The End In Friend, and I don't blame anyone for that. There's a similar core question: exactly what do these two have in common, to keep them together within the larger bond of the sextet? As for the answer... we'll see how that goes over.
It's a SoL story. There's also some yelling. The yelling may be most of it. And at 8800 words, that means a lot of issues which were frankly overdue to come out in public.
So -- this part of the goal was met. A story went up on the 10th, and my ride to the vaccine site for Shot #2 has confirmed for tomorrow. So as temporal compensation for my staying on schedule, I am now prepped to safely look forward to up to four days of utter injection reaction misery!
...
...that may have come out wrong.
