Rainbow Dash is a huge fan of the Daring Do series. Such a big fan, in fact, that whenever a new book in the series comes out, she's the first to get it. But this time, she's going to meet another pegasus who wants to beat her to the punch.

Will Rainbow Dash succeed at once again being the first to buy the new Daring Do novel, or will she be dethroned by the new pony?

Nice work Sev. Gotta hand it to Novelle, she's awesome. Not that I already didn't know that, but still. :twilightsmile:

Nice job with this little story. I can't wait to read your next story. Keep up with the great writing!

...this got approved in like five minutes? they must have really liked it. I know I did.

2447405 2447455 2447464 2447416 I'll just say thanks to all of you at once, since it's easier, haha.

Glad you guys enjoyed it! :pinkiehappy:

You writers need to quit with the titles that I CAN'T SAY ON MY FIRST TRY.

2447532 Did you just dislike my fic because you didn't know a word?

Or was that somebody else?

EDIT: Nevermind. Just some random dislikers...

My mind was so full of fluff
Checking my messages here's what I read.

"Daring Do" Followed by "Rainbow Dash"
And all I thought was "Hey wait a minute did it change names" But nope it was Daring Dash.

Ok, I have to wonder WHY anyone would downvote this story?

I found it to be quite enjoyable. It was well written, and though it was shorter than what I normally prefer in a story, it was the perfect length for the tale that you told.

You have earned another upvote and Fav from me, good Sir.

2447532 What do you mean you can't pronounce it? Didn't you ever learn how to sound a word out?

“FLUTTERSHY, YOU’LL NEVER GUESS WHO I MET TODAY!

"… And how much of a complete jerk I was to her! Seriously, um, maybe I should go beg for forgiveness or something."

Here's to hoping Dash learns more from the story than the ending implies. (That having been said, short and enjoyable read. It just sort of stuck in my craw, the same way, say, that the Mare-Do-Well episode did.)

Oh, Dashie. You so silly. :rainbowlaugh:

I never dislike a fic!
How can you insult my honor like that?!
But really, I have it on Read Later ;D

"Fabled Fifteenth Fascicle"
I tend to read things such as titles out loud the first time. Helps me remember what the story was.

2448073 Just pronounce it Fassickle :raritywink:

And I'm sorry :fluttercry:

2448073 Ah, I see, It really isn't too tricky a word, but it is obscure.

Of course you know my thoughts on it. And who dared to dislike it? Silly people mustn't like OCs or something. :derpytongue2:

2448028 Because Rainbow Dash is one to apologize, right? Hah, I'm just saying, to me, Rainbow Dash isn't one to think about something and say, "Oh, hey, I should recognize the mistake I made and apologize about it." Which is why I don't hate, say, Mysterious Mare Do Well as much as others do (it's still not good, but I have other reasons to dislike it).

2447405 She is, isn't she? Not that I really know about that.

Strange title. Great concept. Awesome story. Good job!

Arrogant Jerk Rainbow Dash isn't, no, but Element of Loyalty Rainbow Dash I have hopes for.

Besides, I'd hope that finding out you called your favorite author worthless TO HER FACE would serve as something of a reality check. (I am very much not a cruel man, but I would not have been nearly so forgiving in Novelle's position. Seriously, we have the next candidate for Buddha here.)

For the second time today I'm doing something I never do, except this time I just have to say that this was a spectacular work.
While I will usually prefer to remain objective on fictions like this, your portrayal of this new pony, author of the daring do series, was fantastic. I believe that Novelle should've had a secondary name, but I understand that it isnt your character, you did a great job. Another thing, the psycho babble, I can't get enough of it. Whenever one character completely defeats the other using nothing but conversation and absolutely no profanity, those are the moments that turn a good story into a great story.
I did notice a few things though, you mentioned the title of the book in the first paragraph, which is typically not a very good hook and did make me hesitant at first. You also used full capitlization to emphasize words, which is fine in casually conversation, but should probably be reserved there. Also at one or two points I was unclear on who was speaking for certain lines of text, though when you did this it was not hard to figure out.
All negatativities aside, which there are actually a lot less than usual, great job, this was a great piece of fanfiction. I'm going to keep a watch on you as an author an anxiously await any further works. 8.7/10 overall rating. Absolutely spectacular! :twilightsmile:

2471462 Oh my God... AN ACTUAL REVIEW?!

Seriously, thank you a thousand times for your kind words. As for the things you thought were wrong with it, I'll do my best to fix those issues. Oh, and fascicle is just a word I can see Twilight using. I actually had it written there before I titled the fic.

Oh, and thanks for the follow as well! If you decide to read my other fics, I recommend two in particular.

Every Thorn Has Its Rose and Chaos Theory, along with its sequels. I still wish this fic would have a better ratio to be honest, but hey, I'll take what I can get.

Seriously, thanks again. I really appreciate it.

I think you'd like the Ace Attorney series. Though since I don't know you, for all I know, you could have worked on those games.
