Let's see if this generates the same amount of argument that the last one-shot I published did.

EDIT: Also, there are not general descriptions of the tags under the FAQ. Fimfiction, y u lie 2 me?

Very well done. It's nice to know that one of those other timelines have a happy ending, even if it's one that came at so high a cost. Thank you for this.

The last letter is the kind you DON'T want to receive.

This was inspired by a famous American Civil War letter, the Sullivan Ballou letter. But at the same time, that single letter felt too .... olde tyme for what I was trying to do. So yes, I looked up a bunch of World War I letters and tried to imitate that style.

That and my personal head canon about Equestria's technological and cultural development equivalent places them near the turn of our last century.

Golden Harvest isn't an oc. You could have put her down as Carrot Top. They're the same pony.

Well, I picked a name at pure random actually.

And the reason I didn't pick a known character (or at least, I THOUGHT I hadn't picked a known character ...) was I wanted the pony to be a bit amorphous in gender until the very end.
