Fluttershy's always hidden a secret from her friends. It's not a horrible, dark secret. In fact, it's nothing out of the ordinary, at least to everypony else: she's got an older brother.

Her brother, though, has always seems to best her when it comes to, well, everything. Tempers flare when he visits Ponyville, and Fluttershy finds herself wondering if she'll ever manage to be as good as him.

Very good. Potentially the third best story I've ever read. And also, REGIDAR CAN SUCK IT! Nothing to do with top comment, just in general. Seriously, though, I love the story. It's awesome.

[EDIT] Okay, I caused drama. I had not intended to. I apologize to everyone out there who was offended or bothered by my comment.

1805871 Regidar is gonna suck you.

1805871 Because you're the top commenter, it matters. Oh wait, no it doesn't.

Anyways, good story, take mah thumbs

Good try, I'm gonna favorite this.

1805939 It ticks me off when people trying to win an argument by using the old "I DON'T CARE/IT DOESN'T MATTER."

1805958 It ticks me off when people comment that they beat Regidar. It REALLY doesn't matter whatsoever and a waste of a comment and bait for a pointless conversation such as this. I see what you're saying though.

I love you both.

1805987 I knew you would show up to break it. :rainbowlaugh:

That moment when all the comments on your story are about Regidar. :facehoof:

Sweet :twilightsmile:

Also, I found this story very touching, for personal reasons. I have no troubles with my brother, but sometimes my self-esteem drops to zero and I get extremely jealous of other people's success. Just like Fluttershy here, I must learn to never forget that I've done good things too, that there are people who cares about me and about what I do.

Thank you for writing this :pinkiesmile:

1806045 Well not anymore. He's banned because of those "INB4 Regidar" posts.

(Joke) Alt. Titles: Flutter Duel and Flut-Do-Better
Y'know, it's like magic duels and Mare-Do-Well, just with more Flutter... Wait...

Regidar, the only guy who can piss people off unintentionally and still be loved for it.:facehoof:

I wanna know how many times you came up with alt. titles for other stories?

1806310
Y'know what's even better? It's gotten Regidar to like me.

Daaaawww I liked this~ although it COULD have been a longer fic :3

So, anyway, Regidar . . .

No, no. I'm kidding. I want to comment on the story.

This is good. Nice set-up, solid pacing, and I teared up a little at the end.

Hm this seems like episode material, heck next thing you know Hasbro will reveal more information about Fluttershy's family including that she has an older brother. :trixieshiftleft:

This would make a great episode. and it would cause big brother overload. (which is a good thing?)

I hope they make this into a show for season 3! OH MY CELESTIA THIS IS AMAZING! :pinkiehappy:

Nice story and a good lesson

Good story, I can actually imagine this is what would happen if Fluttershy had a brother: :fluttershysad: :fluttercry: :fluttershyouch: :fluttershbad: :flutterrage: :fluttershysad:

I cannot say I hated this story, nor can I say I enjoyed it. While the premise itself is good and there were few grammatical or spelling mistakes, I felt that some bits were rushed and there just wasn't enough character interactions to justify Fluttershy thinking her brother was stealing her friends from her.

All in all, My opinion of this story can be summed up with a simple "Meh", and I will neither like nor dislike it.

It is of my opinion that this story would have actually been better if it had been spaced out over multiple chapters, with Fluttershy's brother getting introduced to her friends one at a time with Fluttershy shrinking into the background as her brother and friends starting getting into their own conversations and forgetting about her. Also, Fluttershy's jealousy would have worked better if it had been gradually built up instead of skyrocketing like it did at the in. Of course, this is all just my opinion and you have every right to ignore it.

on a seperate note:
Does somebody want to tell me who the heck Regidar is and why I should give a flying buck about him?

Very cute and fun, bravo mate. Also grats on making the feature box.

Hey, congrats on getting featured! I remember you telling this to me when I first wrote my story! :raritywink:

Happy holidays, and cheers!

Adorable! Just how I like Fluttershy - cute as a baby bunny, sweet like a kitten, and NOT hurt in a grimdark fic!
:twilightsmile:
Faved for great justice!

1807106 I . . . I'm featured???
*Looks at featured box*
*Faints*
THANK YOU!!!!!

your gonna make chapter 2 right. please do it

sweet like a kitten

I call bull! Kittens are not sweet, not at all. They'll claw your eyes out if you look at them wrong.

They are terribly adorable, though.

I have one complaint: Space the sentences when switching between characters/speakers.

1807185 Sorry, no. :twilightsheepish: Just a quick one-shot.

Not your strongest work to hit the feature bar, yet it was short, sweet, and entertaining. This really could have benefited from another 1500~2000 words for the sake of development and building up the conflict. Still worthy of a fave/like in my book. (Already following you)

:pinkiesad2:so sweet! I loved it!

You should make a sequal

" I didn't want them to think that I was some stupid loser who couldn't fly down the street, let along start her own flying team!"

Was that supposed to be "let alone" or was that on purpose?

Anyways,It was an alright story,I can't really say it was too good or too bad. I liked the idea and you did an alright job keeping everyone in character I feel,but I just doesn't feel right to me...Sorry :P Jacky2734 said basically all I wanted to,but still,nice effort,grats on getting featured and keep writing :pinkiesmile: And poor Spike xD :moustache:

He had flied, and that was why she hadn't heard him.

Flown.

"How'd we do, Fluttershy," asked Crimson Bolt,

Needs a question mark.

Spike took one glance at the pony's muscular arms and backed away, tail between his legs.

Ponies don't have arms.

That was... nice. (And there are no smiling Fluttershy emotes :fluttershysad:)

He was banned because of other people writing 'INB4 Redigar'?

This was awesome! Totally!

I gotta say, I almost cried at one part. Such good material.

1806281 who can piss people off unintentionally and still be loved
piss people off unintentionally be loved
piss people off unintentionally
unintentionally
INTENTIONALLY!

Since I'm essentially the baby of the family (being at the age of 15 while my siblngs are in their 20s/30s), the feels hit home with this one. The mood was incredibly well-done, the idea was ingeniously original, I had a few giggles here and there, the character behavior was properly brought forth. Ergo, this gets an A+ (or A*, for those of you who are European). Good on ya, man!

Now, if this ever became a canon episode in any of the upcoming seasons, I'd shit more than enough bricks to make a replica of the Great Wall of China.

Until then, please keep writing more beautiful stuff like this. I'll be watching you, thumbing this up, and favoriting this to boot.

1806376>>1807933>>1806640>>1805871>>1805903 Okay, WHO IS REGIDAR??? This may sound stupid, but I have no idea who he is.

This was awesome! Great job! :yay:

This was amazing. A touching story that took a deeper look at Fluttershy's personality rather than just saying 'it's because she's shy'
As the nerdiest and youngest sibling in my family I can honestly say that this story hit me right where I live...my heart that is.
Well done to you my fine sir! :pinkiehappy:
