A run-away Vault dweller called Oscar has been in the wastes for only a few months after getting out, and while he was scavenging for scrap one day to sell to traders for money, he ends up finding something much more than something in the way of fortune; He finds something that will change his heart around forever.

Luna is an incredibly awkward pony. Shouting while indoors, using archaic language, conjuring storm clouds out of thin air... It isn't that the earnest mare doesn't want to make friends, it's that she's unfortunately bad at it. She's going to need a bit of help if she hopes to make any strides in becoming more social.

Fluttershy, on the other end of the spectrum, thinks life is pretty swell. She has her animals, her five best friends, and a wonderful lifestyle. She doesn't think she could be any happier.

However, when Twilight decides to take a hoof in Luna's development and puts into action a plan to get the lonely alicorn some friends, Luna learns how happy a pony can truly be, and Fluttershy discovers that maybe something is missing from her life after all.

Rainbow Dash is many things. Mainly awesome. But romantic, certainly not. Of all the ponies who would attempt a forbidden romance, nopony would have thought she would.

Now she finds herself head over hooves in love with a mortal enemy of the country. On top of that, she has to face the one group of ponies she's terrified of rejecting her new found romance: her best friends.

Note: This story was created as a prompt from the RD Random Shipping Game. The game required you to roll a dice and depending on the number, you would then write a 100-500 word ship with a corresponding character. I got number 13 which was a male changeling. The rest of the story is a continuation from the prompt.
