What's wrong, Dash?

I'm jealous!

Jealous? O' what?

All those other contests! Like those twidash ones.

Yer in them, sugarcube.



Y'just want more screen time, don'tcha?

Yeah!

Wait...

Hey! No!

Uh huh.

Seriously! They're nice but they don't have you in it.



Aw, that's sweet of ya.

Oh! Idea!

Let's get a contest of our own going!

Didn't we already have one?

That was months ago! This is different!

Really? How?

Well, I always seem to be chasing your (awesome) flank. This time, you'll be chasing mine!

Wait, what?

Noticing a trend was one reason for the first AppleDash contest - the overuse of certain tropes like broken wings, fillyfooling being frowned upon, and so on in fics with our beloved pairing. And a trend is also the reason for this contest:

In most AppleDash fics, Dash seems to be the one to chase after AJ - to make the first step, or the confession, or the first to develop feelings for our farmer gal. Very rarely do we ever see the other way around - AJ as the "chaser" in the relationship.

That, my friends, will be the topic of the contest. Write a fic, of 5k words at least, with AJ being the one after Dash, for once.

The rest of the rules are found in the thread on the AppleDash forums.
