It's never good to have a date go wrong. It's even worse when it's the fourth in a row, and Sunset Shimmer can't help but feel down about her romantic prospects at this point. When she accepts an offer from Applejack and Pinkie Pie to go on an ice cream outing with them, she can't help but wonder how the happy couple has made things work so well between them. But when she asks, they're more than willing to share some of the details.
Runner-up in Bicyclette's ApplePie contest! Sex tag refers to past-tense references to a sexual encounter.
Takes place senior year, post-Holidays Unwrapped but pre-graduation (April-ish?).
Thanks to Krack-Fic Kai, RDT, The Sleepless Beholder and Tipper for pre-reading!
I'd definitely love to read more about how Pinkie and A.J got together.
Really Pinkie?
Cute story.
hehe, this is a good way to bring the reader into the story with the same mood as the viewpoint character, not having any idea what's going on

hehe, saves having to come up with one!
ah, finding explanations for Pinkie antics
i am with Applejack there, that was quite a lot, Pinkie!
aww, poor Flash!
oof, and yeah, that is an interesting dynamic
or, as an alternative, we ship Sunset with literally whoever and work out the details later!
ahaha, i loved this gag
hehe, this was another fun character moment!
ah, the interrupted before giving more detail than anyone is interested in gag, i use this one in my posting persona a lot
hehe, so true! good thing it is not weird here
oh yeah, definitely can see the contrast between Pinkie and Applejack here, and the funny conflicts that would arise. and come to think of it, this would be true between Pinkie and any of the Mane Six except Rainbow Dash, haha
aww, that is a sweet Pinkie Pie moment to end it on!
short and sweet, thank you for it! and i just got the title. ApplePie and ice cream! i get it!
Howdy, hi~!
This was a super fun read. I like how cute Applejack and Pinkie are together, and felt super bad for poor Sunset. The dynamic you wrote between the couple felt really natural, and the characterization really matched what I would have expected from those two.
Super fun read, thanks~!
How unfortunate.
Oh...
Sometimes finding love takes time and patience. I've been single these last few years and have yet found love at the age of 20. And while my dad thinks I'm not being social enough, I've told him plenty of times, I'm fine waiting to find love, which my mom agrees with entirely.
Mhm...
I still question to myself why she had them with her at a frozen yogurt place of all places.
Good going Pinkie.
This was cute, funny, and I think it really helped Sunset realize what her issues were. I especially love how in character both Applejack and Pinkie feel, and how you don't skimp on PInkie's louder random yelling moments like some people do, since it really helps this feel like I'm watching an EQG special.
But then this is an Eileen story so naturally the characterization is gonna be top notch.
I loved this little story, and I wish there was more apple pie this good.
