Just your average, hopeless shipper.

Everybody has their own Hearth's warming family tradition, and Rainbow, Fluttershy and Soarin are no different. But, Soarin has brought something to mix things up. (I'm not the best with descriptions)

Good story. There was some grammatical mistakes but other than that, it was perfect:twilightsmile: Can't wait to see more:pinkiehappy:

You read practically ALL soarindash stories on this site! :rainbowlaugh:

Just kidding! :trollestia:

Anyways, you have a pretty nice story here mate! :pinkiesmile:

6645133 thank you. I'm writing the next chapter now.

As Bluey Shine said, there's a few grammar 'hiccups', but it's super cute :heart:

6645893 Well could you please point them out so I can fix them and learn from that?

"Besides I don't want to be late again

Should be a comma between besides and I

The door finally swun open

*swung

put on way to many layers

Two o's, not one

"Aw I would have thought you'd be able to keep up this year."

A comma between Aw and I would make it sound smoother

"Here I'll take the bags.

Comma between here and I'll

"That's only because you kept forgeting to bring clothes."

*forgetting

The two pegasus

Pegasi,(plural) unless you're Pinkie Pie. Then it's pegasusususes :pinkiecrazy:

Me Fluttershy here

Me and Fluttershy here

Well both Applebloom and Sweetie Bell

Well, both Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle Apple Bloom is two words and Sweetie Belle is spelled like the Disney princess

"Thanks pops. But you don't need to be so mushie."

*mushy

I got to preform with the Wonderbolts!

*perform

Blitz heald his infant son in his hooves

*held
Those are just the ones I noticed. Try asking around for an editor, a lot of people will gladly help if you ask nicely :twistnerd:

6645947 I already have. Well, this was the first story that I typed right up to fimfiction. I have a notebook that I write my stories in first then I type them up correcting the mistakes. Not to mention I wrote this chapter at 11 PM so I didn't notice those little mistakes.

6645947 I must have been really tired because a lot of these are mistakes I would usually catch. Life lesson: Don't write close to midnight.

6646703 But that's the creative time! :pinkiecrazy: Jk XD

Rainbowshine.. I had a theory that was her mother too haha.

6645133 Of course I do. I go and read the stories that are tagged Soarin and are Soarindash:rainbowlaugh:

So awesome!!!:rainbowkiss:.Can't wait for the next chapter!!:pinkiehappy::heart:

Im sorry, but Blitz's (Rainbow's dad) image as a calm pony was ruined with A Dash Of Happyness Soared through The Sky

6658072 I haven't read that one yet.

6661065 I have it under read later.

UPDATE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!:flutterrage:

6671920 quality over quantity man. Sorry. My writing seems to have suffered lately.

6658072 XD

Yup. I like writing dark, mysterious stories.

Please update soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This story is AMAZING!

6679510 I wanted to ask you something but I'll just mail you.

Yasss update
I like the dash has a brother with a kid

6689330
6689527 I just did... Give me some time, the only part of the next chapter I have is the title.

6689165 Yeah I kinda like the idea of Rainbow Blitz being Dash's Brother and I wanted something original about him. Plus I have a story planned for Prism when I'm done with this one.

I like the story, but I'd like to point out a few errors.

"Pfft. Whatever." Soarin scoffed. "Hey Flutters, it's good to see you."
"Yeah, it's good to see you too." Soarin said pulling Fluttershy in for a hug. "So, what's up with you two?" He asked releasing Fluttershy.

Did Soarin just answer himself, or did he answer for Fluttershy because she took too long to answer? If the latter is the case, it's not very clear.

Suggestion:

"Pfft. Whatever." Soarin scoffed. "Hey Flutters, it's good to see you." Fluttershy didn't say anything at first. "Yeah, it's good to see you too." Soarin said, imitating Fluttershy's voice and pulling her in for a hug. "So, what's up with you two?" he asked, releasing Fluttershy.

fan't

can't

Also, something I noticed was your punctuation after dialogue. For example:

"Pfft. Whatever." Soarin scoffed.

In this quote, along with much of your other dialogue, you ended the dialogue with a period, followed by the dialogue tag. When the quote and dialogue tag are in the same sentence, they are always separated by a comma, not a period.
Revision:

"Pfft. Whatever," Soarin scoffed.

Note the comma.

When a quote ends with a question or exclamation mark, don't capitalize the dialogue tag if it's a pronoun. Ex:

"You're going to propose to Dash?!" He said louder than expected.

Should be:

"You're going to propose to Dash?!" he said louder than expected.

One more thing, when a dialogue tag is followed by an action in the same sentence, a comma should separate the tag and action.
Ex: "Blah blah blah," he said, doing a generic action.

Sorry for such a long comment, but I hope you take it into consideration. Again, I'm enjoying the content and plot of the story.

6690693 No this is all stuff I didn't notice. That was actually Fluttershy talking. I'm going to go edit that now.

6690693 I actually appreciate these kinds of comments because they help me as a writer. Thank you.

6691052
No problem, and if you'd like a beta reader, I'd be willing to do so.

6690023 Take your time! We'll all be here waiting!

6691281 I might take you up on that offer. As soon as I finish writing the next chapter...

6731782 sorry, I got caught up in something else.

6735447 I have a goal to get it done before Christmas and upload the last chapter on Christmas day.

Update? That is if you dont mind me asking, um, sorry.:fluttershyouch:

:raritydespair:so fluffy-luffy :rainbowkiss:
when is the next update gonna com

6904229 This story is finally back baby! Yeah!

7675976 Tell me where and I'll fix it please.

Then he started mouthing the words "You're going down," to her.

Don't capitalize "you're." Also, you may need a comma after "words."

The others participating were her father and her brother as mom had to watch Prism and she usually sat the race out to begin with.

Add a comma after "brother."

"Okay everypony! Let's get to our places." Rainbow heard her mother call out.

Comma after "places." As a general rule, you should always separate dialogue tags (who is speaking) and dialogue with a comma.

There are consistent problems with run-on and verbose sentences which I don't have time to point them all out. I like the story otherwise,

7677984 Thanks for the advise and sorry about the run-on sentences. Yeah the part about putting a comma part after quotes is an issue of habit, as I didn't know that was wrong for most of my life.

Awwww, there was so much fluff. I NEED MORE FLUFFF!!!! I really liked this story :pinkiehappy:
