When Rainbow Dash manages to hurt herself trying a new trick, a certain farmpony takes the chance to teach her that a little time off isn't always a bad thing.

This started off as a challenge to take one of the grimdark cliches, Dash losing flight, and make it into something fluffy and shippy. I believe it has succeeded quite well.

There is, as I have been informed, a reading of this fic! It is a bit old, and doesn't include the edits I made to make this fic ready for Equestria Daily, but it really makes me proud to see someone liked this enough to want to record it!

A second reading, this one by TheLostNarrator, has popped up recently! You can find it here.
