After Gilda's last encounter with Rainbow Dash and her friends, the griffon hadn't heard anything from her pony friend for a long time. It made Gilda think that Rainbow Dash forgot about her. Fortunately for Gilda, Rainbow Dash was hard-headed. Unfortunately for Gilda, Rainbow Dash was also high-strung and so stressed out of her mind that her train of thought was completely out of whack. With a few letters detailing Rainbow Dash's situation among other things, will Gilda be able to help salvage her friend's relationship? Or will Rainbow Dash leave Gilda's place as a husk of who she once was?

Gilda couldn't imagine Rainbow Dash failing. She'd do anything in her power to fix this, even if it meant admitting that she liked Rainbow Dash too.

Wait, what?

Content warnings: a high-stress situation that involves a bit of cheating, some sexual references, and plenty of shipping moments of between a pony and a birb.

It's time for our friends to have a serious talk with Rainbow Dash. It's time for her to move on from her friend's passing. Pinkie Pie is gone.

...Right?

Comedy Crackfic, don't say I didn't warn you.

EDIT: Hey, featured on publishing day, 5/26/20!

Speed Reader may only be a temporary product of a fusion spell brewed by Dash and Twilight, but she's still got the Wonderbolt Barracks to herself for a whole half hour before she splits again. Just long enough to tangle with someone whom her halves would most certainly kick to the curb if either of them were in control.

But they're not in control. Speed Reader is. She can read ponies like books, and Lightning Dust is after something in the archives. Something important.

Now with a written review!

This is an entry in the Snippet Series, an anthology of old oneshots that I (and my good buddy Str8aura) wrote based around interesting pics I found. New ones will be posted every Thursday for the foreseeable future.

This story is a sequel to Flying Sky-High

So much has happened in the past year. Friends have been made, battles have been fought, and love has bloomed. Now at long last, Rainbow Dash has the chance of a lifetime: a chance to become a Wonderbolt and instantly be part of an elite squad. However, one of the key judges for the tryout is none other than her love: Soarin. He is bound by his profession to be fair and honest in his selection. Will their relationship give Dash an edge in the tryouts? Or will it strike her down before she even gets there?

Also what of the dark magic within Soarin? He's kept quiet about it for a while, but not all is as well as he lets on.

And what of the Shadowbolts? They scattered after the battle with Nightshade. Surely they didn't just disappear.

A story of remaining strong in the face of harsh challenges. Life and love can be tough, but strong hearts always find a way to prevail.

This Fic's length is a bit intimidating, but it is broken into four parts, each of which could be considered their own stories with clear beginnings and conclusions. I decided to keep it all together because it was how my outline was structured (aka i completely underestimated the length).

This is not a Gurren Lagann Crossover. The title was a coincidence. (But said coincidence has led to many references and characters that parody the anime)

Now with a reading from StraightToThePointStudio!

As a human in Equrstria you have been bored since you came to this world, until one night when you meet up with Luna unexpectedly...

Rainbow Dash and the girls are performing as the Rainbooms for a gig, but because of some ill-timed forgetfulness (e.g. Rainbow rushing to change from her pajamas to her casual outfit because she’s running late for the gig), she unknowingly goes out wearing NOTHING underneath her skirt, neither her shorts nor her panties.

And it’s only after the band has finished the song that she realizes she’s been going commando in front of the whole audience. Now she must try to get home and put her bike shorts and underwear back on before anyone sees but certain things stand in her way such as strong gusts of wind, neighbor's dogs chasing her, encountering some overexcited fans of her and band as well as some old faces...

Written with the help of blankslate98

Another one of Pinkie's parties is winding down, and Dash sits alone in the corner. She feels another knot tightening in her chest, clenching harder by the second. She just can't seem to make it go away, not alone.

Rainbow Dash loved most everything about her experience at the Daring Do convention the prior weekend. Once remembering the moments during practice with a few bolts, she decides to tell her most trusted friend in the HQ about her adventure.

A stay in Equestria to spend quality time with her dearest friend turns awry when Gilda learns of a secret Rainbow kept from all of her friends. Even worse, a moral dilemma forces Rainbow to face a difficult decision, her only confidant in this situation being Gilda. But Gilda is determined to do whatever it takes to help Rainbow see this through, and has the ability to do so as long as she adheres to one important rule:

Don't give in.
