    Description: M.L.P's Bridle Gossip, but slightly redone; Applejack's now alone in her Poison Joke fun. Should she trust Zecora to set things to rights, or will our farm pony forever wear stripes?

    21. A story so great, deserve my rate. Writing so clear, rhyming quite dear.

      Applejack so tough, her rough ways made my day.

      And as the story began to end, I give this tale five stars to send. But don't forget this little rhyme, for I hope you write more stories sometime.

    22. A story of prejudice overcome. Reading this was lots of fun!

      I love Zecora and her rhymes, though I know it can be hard at times. I commend you, sir, for your poetic skill. The dialogue gave me a quite a thrill!

    23. I can rhyme just as well when feeling inspired,
      I've done quite a lot and am often admired
      But enough of patting my back, that's not why I'm here,
      Speaking in rhyme is a hobby most dear
      It can be hard work, the path can be rough
      But I struggle along, never saying "Enough!"
      Giving up's for a coward, that's not what I do
      I see you think the same and I'm most proud of you.
      Zecora can be tough; speaking in two-part rhyme
      Matching her speaking style can take quite some time
      But you persevered, yes you climbed the mountain,
      Soon enough the rhymes flowed from your hand like a fountain
      I doff my cap to your story, this tale that you tell
      Applejack as a zebra? This sure won't end well!


      Mayhaps at some point we might share rhymes between,
      Might a friendship result? That's yet to be seen...

    24. Not the best I have ever read, but still there is nothing I wish I had done instead.

      The number of stars I will give is four; as Apple Jack may have been out of character, but I am not sure.

      Though if judging a book by their cover makes AJ racist or not I am not sure which, her actions overall certainly made her out to be a total bitch.

    25. Everyone but twilight was accusing Zecora of everything from witchcraft to animal torture to cannibalism--- but it's Applejack who gets singled out as the racist. Why? Because she's an "ignorant country hick," of course.

      I have to partially agree. AJ was only worried about Applebloom for the most part. Pinkie was by far the most unreasonably prejudiced.

    27. Rhymes were nice. But it was Pinky's "leaps of illogic" that really made my day. XD

    28. That was quite an enjoyable read and acknowledges a great moral to heed. I don't want to sound like I'm picking a knit, but the characters' actions didn't always quite fit. The grammar was swell and the plot was quite funny. I just think that there were part where the motives where runny. Now, I won't prattle on, for this fic I approve. As a writer, I look forward to your writing behooved.

      (See, now you have us commenters all in rut. The rhyming from our mouths we can no longer shut! XD)

    29. Stumbled upon this from the artist's dA... and dayumn, I missed this the first time this going up on EqD? Phail!

      Really liked this short n' sweet story.

      I can only imagine how much work it took to get AJ's phrases to rhyme x)

      Also the image - both the header image and my own mental image - of AJ as zebra is beyond cute.

    30. This is the second time I've read this, and my opinion of remains the same. I absolutely ADORE Zecora and I wish there were more stories featuring her in a prominent role.
