Mama always told me I were a special tree. I miss her smiles, 'n her stories. I guess all I can do is tell my own now.
This fic is for the Outside Insight Summer Fanfic Contest on EqD.
Thanks to my good friend, Patchwork Poltergeist for helping push me to actually do this fic. You're awesome.
Wow, the tree from that episode really was alive then.
That was really good!

Rob, you're fucking wonderful, did you know that?
Hi rob
4856495 So I'm NOT Rob's alt...
Everyone else I know in the competition is posting tons of news and hype and the like for their entries, and then of course ROBCakerman just posts the story without a second word. XD
Definitely one of my favorite competitions yet. Tons of awesome perspectives.
THE FEELS, JACK
THE DNA OF THE FEELS
YOU SEE YOUR TREE AS A TOOL OF EMOTION
THERE'S A PRETTY FEEL
EXQUISITE
my feels...
>Ecocat<
No, I'm not crying because of a tree! I'm crying because of the competition! You've ruined everything now, with your amazing characterization, powerful setting, and overall good looks. I hope you enjoy your trophy, you magnificent bastard.
A fic, from the perspective of a tree! Fluttershy would be proud
.... honestly not sure what to say, just wow
the feels.
I don't suppose I can send my flood insurance bill to you? I'm only asking because you have just caused a dam to burst around my eyes...
I'm not crying. There's just a raincloud in my eyes.
This nigga makin' me cry over a tree.
11/10 Amazing ass story.
4856297 Technically, aren't all trees alive?
4856353 It's okay Leech, I know this is your fetish. Just try not to get any of it on my floor.
4856441 MUA HA HA HA, I SHALL DEFEAT YOU BOB. YOU AND THAT WRETCHED DOG OF YOURS.

4856583 Hiiii Barata
4856714 I'm sorry...
4856885 I don't have insurance!
4856843 Why did you play the Queen of Clubs and the Queen of Spades on a 7 of Diamonds? Seems kind of wasteful to me...
(I'm using the order of power from the card game Sheep's Head)

Wow... Just amazing.
*fave
Try not reading like Tom Hanks in Forrest Gump. I dare you.
...Yeah, I just noticed the author's note.

We....are Bloomberg.
Pony fanfiction: Where you can get feels from a frickin' tree. A+.
G'Damn! Right in the feels! Bloomberg is like that warm fuzzy feeling, it always makes you think good thoughts, y'know? T'was really nice of a story!
11/5 would cry again.
Featured already?! Nice job
We're proud of you too, Bloomberg. ;-;
4857140 I did. I shed that one manly tear. xD It burned...I don't cry much. :P
mama always told me I were a special tree...
as soon as I read that I knew this would be a great story
now the real question on a scale from one to amazing how ten is this story?
for me it's amazing but I was never good at math
Damn you Rob. It hurts RIGHT IN THE FEELS
So glad the contest gave you the excuse to finish writing this one, Cakey. Nice to finally see this story come to life.
(Though the Gump voice playing in my head makes me wonder if there's some tree equivalent of Lt. Dan)
God dammit, Rob, I always knew you were more than a one-hit wonder. Even when the others never flocked the way they did to your first, I knew you had more than enough talent to create something fucking amazing.
And this was.
Your other stories made me laugh, and some made me think. Even MLD made me frustrated, which while it isn't the best emotion, is still a reaction.
And this made me cry.
Fucking beautiful.
I always love a story that can evoke emotion within me ... lets me know i still have a heart.
No matter how black it may be.
wow.... i... wow.....
By the gods... I read this outloud to myself, and I think I did a perfect accent... if I only had a decent recording device, I would have totally recorded it and posted it on youtube for you, ROB. I don't know, maybe I can try with my crappy one. It'd be something', right?
By the way, this story was just awesome. I love it.
... This story made me realized that I need to tell my mom that I love her more often.
10/10
"Mama always told me I were a special tree" i fucking lost it

Hm, what's this strange liquid flowing from my eyes?...
FYI it's Insight, not Insite. Insite is a safe injection site for IV drug users in the Downtown East side of Vancouver.

NP, just my way of saying hi anyway.
Also I like how your avatar seems to be reacting to mine. But you probably get that a lot...
God damn you, you magnificent sonofabitch!
4861191 Yeah, I do lol. But I don't mind.
4858449 Thanks Reg, I really appreciate that.
4861615 And I meant it too you magnificent bastard.
