Fluttershy's eyes are a bit heavy, tone down the lines just a bit.

Other than that, excellent work. I wish I could draw that well (well, I almost can, but I'm so obsessive-compulsive I assume anything I draw is imperfect and end up throwing it out).

Probably a bit late, considering the drawing is basically done, but:

Never too late, I keep them all in layers anyway. I just needed a pony-shaped obstruction to keep the line going, so I threw together a placeholder. Which, now that I look at it, isn't that far off. Mostly hairstyle, head shape, and lack of helmet. Plus, tasteful accessory. I'll redraw 'im once I wake up proper and have some free time on my hands.

I think we ought to at least wait 'till the rest of the gang is on. Where are we going to submit it first?

Eh, should've waited for me to give it a proofread again. But oh well. I christen thee, fic, Friends In Need, and may thou havest a safe journey through the Internetz!

And let all who see thee in thine full glory go blind, for it doth protect them from the madness. Somewhat.

Out of sheer curiosity, how many of the current 6 5-star ratings for the fic are "ours"? Also, 126 reads and no comments from non-Bay12ers.

I would link to the fic on GitP forums, which would get us a bundle of new readers, but I'm a little wary of any negative reaction it might induce once we go to Phase 3.

Or, hell, say that you've found it and don't mention the help you gave it.

...I've got the same name, avatar and signature there as I do here. And I never used alt-characters even in noncompetitive MMO play.

They'll recognize my drawing style anyway when/if they see the title image though. Speaking of which, better get on that. Do we have a deadline for Phase 2?
