Pros:
>light and fluffy

Cons:
>not nearly enough comedy, a weirdly common trait in these wacky batpone fics
>runs out of steam halfway, then abruptly ends
Fully on the mango side of the batpony thread, it follows a bat who tries to prove to Ponyville's she's not a stereotypical bat, only for the hi jinks to immediately end before they even really begin, leaving the story bare and in desperate need of some humor. I was also annoyed the term "fruit bat" was used to describe her, since my mind immediately started to imagine her as a literal bat.
