Before you get the impression that I'm one of the bronies that simply believe they are too tough, or that I'm being all macho... I'm not.

In fact My Little Dashie is one of the better fanfics I've read in a while. Sure, it had blatant character self insertion, but it wasn't done in a way that was "I foundz portul to pwnyville and had smexy times with Rarity." Instead it had a bit of responsibility and reflected the emotions of supporting and then showing how one deals with *SPOILERS*.

It would of had a lot more impact if I had either experienced the loss of a loved one, raised someone myself, or wasn't an anti social jerk who expects friends to be "for now" then "forever". No, the real reason I 'cried' was not because of the emotions pulled by the story, it made the story made me realize something.

During one of the major plot points the author said, in his story's timeline, that MLP lasted for 8 seasons, then was in reruns for another 7 years. I know in my heart this will not happen, especially since this season is half as long and I've been hearing rumors how they are supposed to be bringing back some of the old villains and a mind controlled Trixie. I don't know if they are true, but I 'fear' because I remember... When was the last time you saw a totally awesome cartoon last more then 4 seasons?
