Sweet Apple Acres, the home of the Apple family but also a home of apple secrets. For as long as anypony could remember, apples have been fresh and ready for harvest. Neither the cold of winter or heat of summer would prevent apples from being ripe. Natural or even supernatural disaster could not ruin a single harvest. Every day from begging to the end of the year Sweet Apple Acre had one season and one season only. Bucking season.

And now one pony wants to know why. Timid but brave Carrot Top is venturing on a quest, a quest to discover the dark secrets of apples.

Pregnancy is hard. Not just for the mares, but for the stallions as well.

After one mishap, what started off as a romantic night for Rainbow Dash and Soarin' will shape the rest of their lives forever.

That'd be all fine and dandy for Rainbow Dash, but Soarin' isn't making things any better for himself when he keeps uttering the same word that annoys Rainbow to no end.

"Sorry", and its other variation, "I'm sorry."

Twilight was in an accident and can't use wings or magic leaving her in a bit of a pickle.

It's times like this where Twilight has to give earth ponies more credit than she could dream of.

(In this story Twilight has gone without magic before realistically, but in this scenario she's a bit too used to using magic.)

[Any alternate title suggestions are appreciated]

Throughout her time at Crystal Prep, Twilight Sparkle had been ignored or scorned by her jealous and well-to-do classmates. She could only rely on her pet dog Spike for companionship.

The Friendship Games, once a way to bring the two schools together, devolved into a cutthroat competition for glory. A competition Principal Abacus Cinch sought to win, even if it meant blackmailing her top student.

Seeking to distract herself from her loneliness, Sparkle sought to study the magic of Canterlot High School. Her experiments, however, wreaked havoc on the games, and brought her the scorn of Sunset Shimmer, who saw the human Twilight as a dangerous nuisance.

In a last-ditch effort at victory, Cinch and the Shadowbolts pushed Twilight into unleashing the magical energies she had collected.

But in their attempt to abuse a force they did not understand, the Shadowbolts unwittingly caused tragedy. But through this tragedy, will the Shadowbolts and others come to understand the value of a single human being? And will Sunset overcome her grief and try to prevent another one?

Twilight and her friends have faced many challenges throughout their years of great friendship, but things start to take a big turn when they encounter a darkness that is not from their world, as well as making a few new friends along the way. Takes place after Season 6, and so on. Also guest-starring Stardust Balance from "A Journey Beyond Sanity".

Twilight has always been an excellent student. Knew everything about any subject. But there was one she didn't really study on. Motherhood. And that is put to the test when she finds a baby Changeling...and has to hide it from her friends, the Princesses, and everypony else!

Note: The contents of this story happen before Starlight Glimmer started her revenge plan on Twilight as well as before Thorax appeared

Where in the world did Pinkie Pie get her signature party cannon from? Why was Rarity so horrified to hear that Pinkie gave it away while they were in Manehatten? Why did Maud instantly choose to give up her new rock pouch to go and get it back for her?

What makes that cannon so special?

Based on a friggin' adorable headcanon that I felt deserved to be brought to life

We all know how the end of the story went. Starlight was shown the disastrous consequences of her time travel spell, she revealed her past, Twilight took her under her wing as her own student and she mends her ways.

But what if that wasn't the case?

Even when the results of Starlight's meddling of the past is shown to her, she rejects the offer of friendship and still vows to never stop her attempts to exact revenge on the Mane Six and ruin their connection. Thus Twilight is faced with only one final option...
