Love is a verb, not a noun.

Rainbow Dash: Famous throughout Equestria, and loved by all.

Except for Miss Harshwhinny. Critical and disapproving since the day they met. Unfazed by Dash's renown, and utterly immune to her charm.

Rainbow has never been one to back down from a challenge. She's got half a day to turn the inspector's opinion around, and discovering a shared hobby might prove to be the edge she needs.

I have a problem, and maybe you can help me.

I upvoted this before reading, because Harshwhinny. But now I've read it and want to upvote it, except stupid past me robbed me of the opportunity. So I need to know: what's the best way to time-travel back to kill my past self before I can upvote this story, so that I can upvote this story?

For the sake of argument, if you ever had succeeded at that, you wouldn't be typing this now. Right? Or am I misunderstanding things again? Damn time travel anyway!

Nice job on this RSD. I unironically enjoyed it. You got a rare literal laugh-out-loud from me with "Quick and the Furious 37: Quicker, and with Greater Fury."

I do believe it's "fourth," however. Not "forth."

And yet again I am reminded that my ability to self-edit is hamstrung by my lack of actual editing experience.

Fixed.:facehoof:

All my yes!

Loved it! You got both ponies perfect

“It’s not them, either. It’s…”
The screen followed Daring’s eyes as it fell upon a red flag, with familiar lightning bolts emblazoned in black.
Rainbow couldn’t resist. She said the words along with Daring, hoping her neighbor wouldn’t mind.
“…Nazis.”

Awesome excellent work!

I got much more then I expected from this. They still read like themselves for all that I thought you couldn't match them together this piece works.

What I am most interested in is the EGO Doom Fortress. What's it like there?

6384903

On a craggy hill above a desolate village, there rests the EGO Doom Fortress. It is a menacing and decrepit building of black stone and tall towers, behind which the moon looms large in the nighttime. Children dare each other to trespass on the graveyard beneath, but few stay for long, for the tortured noises from the earth quickly frighten away even the most foolhardy. And not even the bravest child will knock on the massive wooden door, or breach one of the many broken windows. If they did, they would find themselves in a maze of cobwebs and candles, rife with hidden passageways and buried secrets.

It is within these walls that EGO does its work, planning and organizing the Equestria Games. Unwilling to let little things like a lack of electricity and omnipresent bats deter them, these dutiful souls conduct their thankless bureaucracy in relative peace and seclusion. "Relative" because occasionally they must fend off a torch-and-stake wielding mob from the village below.

6384961 Wonderful!

Two more questions. One, why is it called a musical if there is none. Two…NAZIS!

Yes, I know that's not a question.

Because I liked the way it sounded in my head.:twilightsheepish:

It was a symphony of battling egos and a masterpiece of squeals and groans punctuated by the sounds of leather on lightly-furred flesh.

DAMN, SON

Rainbow Dash isn't my favorite character in the show, but her perspective is immensely fun to read when it's written well. And this is written well.

Likewise, my opinion of shipping is that a good pairing is "whatever you can get away with". I came into this story expecting madness, but you convinced me that these two really could be a good match for each other.

Thank you for bringing this into the world.

Damn, this story needs more likes. Awesome job, and hoping to see more Harshwhinny!

Thanks! Write Harshwhinny, and one receives a small, but devoted viewing from her group.:rainbowdetermined2:

Such an excellent piece of work. Not many stories can get me to laugh while reading, This being one of the few that has succeeded. Your style is very engaging, every detail feels important to take in, and not at all like filler. Easily making it worth reading over again in the future, and not to just skip to what one may consider the good parts.

Characterization was also very good in my opinion. It's nice to see ponies like Ms. Harshwinny getting more depth. The idea of the pairing is not unfamiliar to me. I'm not against it, but I honestly never saw them being able to hook up. The differences in the two never seemed to click, but somehow you made it more believable.

I don't know why I never commented on this when I originally read it. Apparently it's because I'm so unprofessional I can't even express my approval beyond clicking a thumb and a star.

Mrs. Harshwhinny would be most displeased.

In any case, I loved this story. I wasn't too sure about the ship, but you certainly delivered on the comedy and characterization.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to flagellate myself for my lack of professionalism. Or to ponder writing Harshwhinny in some form.

Idk.

Holy crap. I didn't know I needed this until I read it. Have a like and a favourite.

I need more.

I'm not sure which is more questionable, this story or the fact that I initially read it at three in the morning.

Also Florina/Nagatha OTP.

Interessting, just to short already, I still want to read it through since their are not much Harshwinny stories.

Well, Harshwhinny is the only one worthy of Harshwhinny's affection, so they seem very reasonable as a OTP.

Loved this. Such an odd pairing yet pulled off so well.

I'll admit, I lost it when the Nazis showed up. You didn't even try for a horse pun! Just boom, Nazis. They're the universal mook.

Dash was super-professional.

Joke of the day. :rainbowlaugh:

Well, there never was a scoreboard, was there? Points, schmoints, it had always been up to Harshwhinny. Rainbow would remain in her presence or be curtly dismissed at the older mare’s whim. Harshwhinny was

Lol, Dash is a masochist.

“Sombra’s almost through the door!” a unicorn shouted onscreen, his voice nearly lost as an explosion shook the walls. “Mary Sue, what’s the plan?”

Lol, Mary Sue.
