Even when you correct the link to remove the "blogger" stuff at the beginning of the URL, the story still gives me a "request permission to view this?" thing. Has the author put it on private or something?
@DerKaiser I just read "both versions" and both were decent. You have a good vision for what's happening the scenes. The visuals you make, especially in the "not really chapter 2" are lovely. Now, the writing itself gets a bit cumbersome in places, especially when sentences start to get too long or don't get to the point. Fortunately (in my opinion) there isn't too much of that. It probably just needs a little re-working here and there, plus better proofreading.
Sure, you could tighten / trim a bit more, but don't do too much. (I was on the trimming kick for a while, until I noticed that even my sex scenes were starting to read like technical manuals.) My other personal opinions on style are to avoid just giving background when you could slip it into the action or dialogue, if it won't get cluttered or awkward, but that's an area for great nitpicking and, like I emphasized, personal choice.
"Dash's" pre-dawn view of Equestria had good romantic detail in itself, and that extra little bit of awe helped me get into her pensive mood. Then it was easier to understand how the conflict was slowly turning over in her mind. In fact, even though you can't really merge both chapters into one, maybe you'll find an opportunity to use some of what's in "not really chapter 2" later.
Okay, even I'm coming across as a pompous windbag at this point. So, basically, I hope you keep working on and finishing this story. I'm intrigued.
Pssth! Dash, Dash, Dash. The answer is obvious. Three-way! Pinkie will probably swing with anyone and you just know Applejack would accept any beverage handed her and would down it without ever noticing your little 'addition' to it.

That's a cute pic; I like her expression.
VastaKustutaCute story! Shame how short it was though, I hope there's some continuation.

VastaKustutaThere will be, hopefully.
Gah. I really liked reading this.
VastaKustutaI'm hoping you continue with it.
Part 2's broken.

VastaKustutaSame issue, we just have to wait until he makes it "anyone with a link".
VastaKustutaGod, isn't there any better way to view these than Google Docs? It seems like all the ones uploaded on there are messed up somehow.

VastaKustutaDeviant art or fanfiction.net still work.
Honestly? I need to see this one. I just HAVE to, but the google docs page isn't set up properly...
VastaKustutaUhhhhhh blog pony I said that I threw away this chapter, I made the link private.
VastaKustuta@DerKaiser
VastaKustutaoh, alright.
Deleted it then.
I'll probably start writing a replacement chapter later tonight though, for everypony that's waiting.
VastaKustutaFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

So cute, I hope to Celestia that you continue the story!

Damn, now I want to read the rest. Whatever happened to that continuation DerKaiser?

VastaKustutaThat was quite cute. Hoping to see more. ^^
