D'awwwwwwwww!
And Fluttershy is beautiful, just as she is.
Internet Rule 244. Fluttershy is cute. End of story.
I loved this short little fiction! Nice and smooth, What it lacked in detail it made up in pacing and frankly, it worked so much more because of that!
well...

ehh....

hmm...

that is all
...there are no words.
Short, but so very sweet, and you absolutely nailed Rarity's voice. There's a lot of meaningful interaction packed into a small space here: you've showcased Fluttershy's insecurity and Rarity's genuine care for her friend, articulated a nice moral, and wrapped it all up with a simple but heartwarming resolution. It's fluffy, but it's got substance.

Thanks!
This was officially my first time writing Rarity and also the first time I was starting to feel out what the show was all about (it was only a couple of months old at the time!). In many ways, this story served as a compass to how I'd write ponies further on down the line.
And especially Rarity gosh I like writing her dialogue so much
First PinkieJack and now RariShy. What's next? TwiDash? (I'm joking, but I'm fairly sure there's a decent possibility.)
Two entries into the series and that "feels like a show scene" feeling is gone.
Not in a bad way, though. For being written prior to any of Rarity's focus episodes save for Look Before You Sleep, it's got her angle on caring even more about inner beauty than outer beauty down pat, when I'm not sure that had even been clearly communicated yet. Fluttershy's active interest in trying to meet new ponies without even breathing a word about animals seems a little off, in turn, though trying to solve a social problem with a passive solution feels right.
Your prose got better. Decade old writing and all, I've been warned.
Good messages about accepting who you are and an uncommonly warm finish of the sort that dares the romance tag to show its face. Seriously, I thought the outright kisses were a more recent development.
