    1. Wonderful story.

      Though admittedly I was hoping for Luna =P

      Luna is best pony, but...this time it was Celestia :3

    3. Great story Midnight. It seemed short, but I don't know how you could have expanded it, and I may just think that because I liked it enough that I want more.

      Of course, I'd think Dash would have a lot of questions for Celestia after that experience.

    7. Short, sweet, beautifully vivid, and a risk Rainbow Dash would really take. Going into space... man they don't have much of an atmosphere do they.

      Notsureifshipping.png at the end though, lol. Kind of random, but hey, if you plan to write more, then I'm all for it.

    8. Beautiful. Grand. Magnificent. Breath-taking. So many adjectives I could use, but...none quite do this justice.

    10. This is ground control to Rainbow Dash
      you've really made the grade
      and Applejack wants to bake you apple pies
      now it's time to go beyond the farthest skies

      This is Rainbow Dash to ground control
      I'm now living the dream
      and I'm flying in a most awesome kickass way
      and it's good to be a Pegasus today...

    11. @Anonymousbut...ground control to major tom didn't end well... D:

      awesome rewrite though :D

    12. Just an awesome story, all around. It was short, but you said what needed to be said, and did it beautifully.

    13. No summary could accurately convey the draw of this story. The beauty is all in how it was told.

    14. The story was brilliantly conceived and vivid in its presentation. I have to admit, however, that the ending felt a little bit tacked-on. Perhaps a little more explanation of how Dash went from admiring the myriad other worlds to "Have I ever told you guys how glad I am that your my friends" would have helped.

      Still, it was an exceptional piece overall.

      I somewhat agree - but the whole story just fell onto the page and I didn't want to ruin it by poking too much.

      The ending's a bit short, I know - I may go back and do the special edition directors cut one day with all the deleted scenes...

      The moral in my mind is "no matter how important you think you are, the world itself is far bigger, and there are bigger things still than that. Your friends give your life meaning as you give them theirs, with friendship that's enough."

    16. Awesome. Absolutely mind blowing. The ending felt a bit rushed, but otherwise this story is amazing.

    17. That was a beautiful little story. I really wanna see more of the Summer Lands, myself (another fic in this continuity where the mane cast actually reach there would be really, really cool).

    18. "Dash is enamoured with the idea of flight, and vows to go further, higher and faster than any pony ever before in search of an old legend, and finds something she didn't quite expect..."

      The edge of the atmosphere?
