      Thank you so much for not spelling it out to us. Ever since he talked about his foal, I was worried you'd be writing a sappy reunion, but the way it played out was very good.

      Interesting...

      Not sure what to think. It feels pretty brief, but I don't feel as attatched to this OC that I normally do...

      Not particularly sad but certainly was a good read.

      Realistic ending = 3 extra stars. Too bad I can't put 8/5, so just 5. 5 stars.

      SPOILER ALERT ALSO INTERPRETATION AND SPELLING OUT WHAT IS WONDERFULLY SUGGESTED BUT NOT SPELLED OUT

      Everyone should just assume spoilers in the comments, that's my opinion. Anyway, they both know. Actually, no. They both know the possibility exists. But the fanon is Big Mac and Applejack's parents died, so there'd be no real way of telling. So there is the suggestion, the hint that maybe Big Mac is Little Apple. Since Apple Bloom is there, I'm sure Big Mac wouldn't want to upset her with that suggestion. And it would be only that, suggestion. No way of knowing for sure. That's also why Silver Tongue gave Big Mac the note to read. Just in case.

      Really guys? Really? Really. REALLY? Come on. And I did not cry but it was heartwarming. I'd rate it but blogger ate the rating box.

      You get points for avoiding what could have very easily been a sappy story. Big kudos on keeping it classy.

      --SPOILER ALERT AND ALTERNATE INTERPRETATION--
      I'd personally like to take the story as Big Mac not being the long-lost son in question here. The clues are obviously there, but I prefer the alternative in thinking it's coincidental.

      The story was good. And that picture is so damn cute. Probably the cutest Applejack Picture I've ever seen. <3

      Agree'd with Kurogo, for

      -SPOILER-

      I think it's best that Big Mac is the true brother of Applebloom and Applejack. Nonetheless, I liked this as a story. Like said before, no sappiness = kudos.

      Very nice read indeed. I was thinking "Oh no, the cliché is gonna come" A lot towards the end, but then... it simply didn't come. I really like how it ended and it was well written overally. 5/5

      I really enjoyed reading this story, even though the premise seems a bit far fetched Your writing style has a lot of potential.

      The ending WAS sad in a way, but also appropriate I think.
      If you really wanted you could maybe expand it into a longer story. But as it stands I think it works really well.
      4/5

      I love the picture and the Story. If I didn't know any better I'd say the picture was taken from one of the My Little Pony episodes but it wasn't, That gets an automatic 4 stars from me. And as for the story, it was great, I'm not really one to take time and read stories but this one hooked me in the instant I saw a southern accent being spelled out. Its fun deciphering those but the over all story was good, if it wasn't for the mentioning of death in the story I would have ask the My Little Pony writers to put this story in an episode, I would give this story a 5 star rating. With the picture and the story together that's 9 stars, unfortunately I can only give it 5 stars and a good complement, hopefully this comment will suffice.
