      Thanks for posting this, Sethisto!

      Any and all constructive criticism whatsoever is MORE than welcome, everypony. I don't plan on this being my last story, so your opinion is very important to me!

      This story is such a simple idea but its SO GOOD! I was really into finding out what on earth was in the box!

      The picture used for this story scares me slightly.

      Quite an adorable short story, and somethign I could easily see rainbow dash doing!

      Could easily be an episode as I said. I hope to see more from you. It was well paced, you had more than enough description to visualize things, and everyone seemed very in character.

      D'awwwww! That was really cute! I could totally see that as a completely plausible episode!
      I'm an absolutely terrible critic because honestly. I got nothing but love for this story. I wish there could have been more more details about Wavedancer though, it was kindda hard to imagine it.

      I love this story. Thanks for the read!

      I can't really describe this fic in any way other than perfectly balanced. The story was solid, the characterization and dialogue was solid, the humor was solid...it was just an overall really good piece of fiction. You should post this on DeviantArt, I bet Lauren Faust would love it!

      It's hard to come across a great non-shipping normal story. As others have said, it seems like it could have been an actual episode. The characters are portrayed well. Rainbow still has her pride and cool factor.

      There will be a sharp increase in the number of Angel/Gummy shipping fics.

      (Though, given that we're at 0 right now, any number would be a sharp increase...)

      I have to say, I rather enjoyed how we kept getting snippets of the unknown adventure they had gone on. Twas nice.

      It's just so cute! No one's out of character, the story is so simple yet compelling and sweet, and the conclusion works so well! Coupled with very good writing, and this is among the best fics I've read here. This could easily have been an episode of the actual series, nice job!

      Oh, and extra kudos for referencing the older series. I was never a fan of it, but I love cheesy 80s stuff, and everypony knows the 80s make everything 20% more awesome.

      "My tongue still hurts a li'l, but it was soooo worth it!" LOL.

      I love the noodle incident* references. "I am not actually the Dread Pirate Blackmane. The REAL Blackmane has been retired fifteen years and living like a queen in Pataponia."

      * Noodle Incident: an event that happens off screen and is referred to only obliquely, with the implication that it was too bizarre or amazing to explain in full.

      Good lenght, good story.

      Yeah, it was interesting to read... kept me wondering 'what' could possibly be in the package, to make RD so nervous ;)

      ...but instead : Shoo bydoo, etc. ;)

      Never really saw the old pony things, but I can imagine what it is the lose something that you don't want others to find out.

      How does it go again ? It was a good ''Wild chase'', or ''wild goose chase'', whatever the expression. :D

      I couldn't get over how enjoyable this story was. You've certainly put my little fanfic to shame. Words can't do this story justice. As others have said, it feels like an episode. You've got the personalities of the show characters down pat. Rainbow Dash buying something cute but being embarrased about it is something that she probably would do. And Pinkie Pie's response of "Yes please" to the question of how many spoons of sugar is pitch perfect. This story flows well and has a good lesson. I loved it.

      Dear Princess Celestia,
      Hey! It's Rainbow Dash here this time, cause this time I learned something about friendship! I learned that you shouldn't try to hide things about yourself from your friends just because you're afraid of what they'll think of you, cause really, true friends would never judge you or make fun of you, and my friends ARE real friends. And hey, ya never know, maybe the thing you're hiding was never anything to be ashamed of, and it may actually draw everyone together under a common interest!

      The friend of your most prized student,
      Rainbow Dash

      P.S. What do you know about sea ponies?

      This is amazing, you are amazing, and I feel good. What it "lacked" in length and complexity, it made up for by fitting together like the most elegant little puzzle ever.

      Elegant. Yes. We'll go with that word! I can think of nothing bad to say, and I don't care to think whether that's just because I'm coming down from a d'aw-rush.

      That was a fun little tale, we've all had those moments. Though I wasn't expecting everyone sav Twilight to be fans of the Wavedancer story/show.
      All the reactions to the doll were fun to read.

      Now I'm curious of the adventure that happened prior to that involving the Dread Pirate Blackmane.
