I'm glad you enjoyed it, and yes, it was the one and only.![:rainbowdetermined2:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/rainbowdetermined2.png)
Every tree within a one-mile radius was now vertical
They usually are, vertical means up and down. Horizontal means side to side. I think you were looking for "Diagonal" which is between the two.
Fun story, just a trifle.

Thanks. I usually delete my own boo boos but the fimfiction server was being wonky on me.
I've modified this from Overkill to The Campaign for Extra Trixie and other experiments because I liked these segments. I didn't know whether to post them separately or together, but I liked the idea of having a little corner for flash fictions (if that's the correct term - I sometimes get them confused with short stories), so here they are.
I've been a little inactive recently. This is partly because I'm reading other fanfics (and reading in general), partly because of life in general, and partly because I'm toying with a few ideas and I don't want them published until I've got all the bugs worked out. In the meantime, happy reading!![:twilightsmile:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/twilightsmile.png)
Sounds good to me! Where do I sign up?
I'm moving another chapter from here again. It's going to be One Apple Short, formerly "Saddle On Up, It's Going To Be A Big One". As it's going to be a random, don't expect it to be serious. Again, this is just a heads-up in case people wonder why this has dropped by another chapter.![:unsuresweetie:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/unsuresweetie.png)

In my defence, I did tag this as Random, so WYSIWYG. That said...
I'll admit it's not my best work, as it was acting mostly as a characterization exercise for Bonbon. ![:ajsleepy:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/ajsleepy.png)
I was thinking (a dangerous pastime, I know): the submission rules state that multi-story, uh, stories aren't permitted. I've already removed a couple of chapters from here and posted them as separate stories. Should I take all but one down, since this seems to violate the rule, or should I leave it as it is, since there are precedents that haven't been removed?![:derpyderp1:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/derpyderp1.png)
EDIT: Since nobody's made a fuss over it, and there are precedents, I'll leave it. - 30th July 2012
Oof. Berry Punch lost a lot of money here.
How does one explain the bizarre events of Games Ponies Play? With alcohol-based spa products, of course.
This was never going to be a full story, so I put it up here as a short story about Ester and Cinnamon White, the proprietors of the spa we saw in that episode. I wrote this not long after season three concluded, and only recently rediscovered it while cleaning up my files. Basically, I got the inspiration when I learned that alcohol-based gem polish actually exists, as does alcohol in perfumes. Put the two together, and whaddayagot?
“tout de suite”, FYI.![:twilightsmile:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/twilightsmile.png)

Honestly, I might as well just mark this as complete and bid it good day. I have no intention of adding to it, at this point.
