This was a great fic. I'm glad to see no shipping and no grimdark and so on, and it was.. rather touching. It gives a new edge to Pinkie, without making the subject go out of hand like it usually has.
You've heard a critique or two before, so allow me to just introduce what I liked.
Amazing levels of bittersweet! and it unfolded in a way that didn't seem at odds with the show. I especially love Pinkie Pie's role in it. This story just may get a tear in the reading, but I am sure people will be smiling anyways at the end.
Nvm. Just got it. I guess this story was written before Cutie Mark Chronicles aired, the episode where we see Pinkie Pie's parents. The description of her parents was throwing me off.
Hm, thanks to the above anon for figuring that one out for me, I wouldn't have gotten that! Although, I'm still vaguely confused about how the parasprites are involved...
^ How did Pinkie Pie know how to get rid of the parasprites in Swarm of the Century?
Based on this fic, it's because wherever she grew up there was a parasprite infestation and her parents were killed in that. I guess the ponies there figured it out and Pinkie used this knowledge when the parasprite swarm came to Ponyville.

Oops I'll change that.
