Shining Armor has been forced into an extended sabbatical by the Princesses. Their reasoning was clear: in the peaceful era that has followed Twilight Sparkle's ascendancy to the throne, Shining needs to spend more time with his family, and particularly his daughter, Flurry Heart.

The precocious teen is fifteen years of age and rapidly approaching her sixteenth birthday. But she's not the little foal that Shining enjoyed spending so much father-daughter time with. The halcyon days of cute little Flurry playing on his knee are long gone, replaced with a prickly and complicated teenage filly.

Will the oblivious and goofy Shining Armor be able to navigate the difficulties of modern-day fatherhood? Will he follow the strange guiding voices which direct his decisions?

Or is he simply falling into an elaborate love-trap of Flurry and Cadence's design?

This is my entry into the June 2019 Wincest Contest!

This story is a fun little experiment I've been planning to try for some time: at the end of each chapter I'm going to present the fimfic readers with a strawpoll to choose from a few different options that our plucky protagonist can pursue. Inspired by the awesome Starscribe! Join in and see if the community will
be able to guide Shining to his goal before the end of the month!

Will likely contain: Incest / MF / teenage foalcon

FYI the Equestria in this story is located in a deep gravity well, so all characters are over ten million years old in Earth years and therefore 100% not illegal.
