What's it like to live in Canterlot, home of the princesses, assorted renowned celebrities and sophisticated ponies?

Well, it all comes down to who you are, really - and if you happen to be a fairly ordinary earth pony, you can get on with life quite easily with few distractions.

But what happens when life plays you an interesting hand, and suddenly you're thrown into the spotlight?

This is a tale of the everyday, and how it can turn from ordinary to extraordinary with a twist of chance.

This is a tale of friends, of laughter, of love and of life.

This is a tale of who we are, and how we got here.

This... is Sketchy Salad Symphony.

When Rainbow Dash forces her date Fluttershy into going into Ponyville's local graveyard at twelve o' clock on Nightmare Night, of course she is scared out of her mind! But can she even open the gate to the graveyard before screaming and running? Well, we'll see.

Sorry this might seem like a bad idea, but I needed a Halloween story to post. Read this at your own risk, as the story has a Teen rated edge. Just a little follow up to those who don't like to read "scary" things.

Flight School is where it started for her. An infatuation with Rainbow Dash that Fluttershy would carry for seven years, eight months and fifteen days (not that she's been counting). All she has to do is tell Rainbow Dash how she feels, and, really, its not as if its a daunting task.

Right?

Cover Art by the amazingly generous iJab

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy had recently moved in together, with everything going swimmingly. Pretty soon, it's apparent that Rainbow has gotten a bit slack with the housework, usually leaving Fluttershy to do it. This doesn't bode well, as it eventually catches up to both of them.

Proof read by Dran Kito.

This story is a sequel to Magnetism!

Rainbow Dash has been foalnapped by Fluttershy’s arch nemesis, and through a mystical portal, taken to another land. Can Fluttershy, with the help of her friends, save the pony she loves? How does this mysterious foe have a portal to another land? What is this mysterious new land? Most important of all though, why does Fluttershy have an arch nemesis?

This story follows on from the events of my story, Magnetism. Reading of the story Magnetism however is not needed to fully understand and enjoy this story.

The cover image for this story is the artwork 'To the rescue?' by Zackira.

This fanfic features FlutterDash and hints/mentions other pairings such as SpArity and TwiPie to a lesser degree.

I do not - nor do I claim to - own any characters or artwork I use in this story unless otherwise stated - they belong to their respective series and owners.

It's that time of year again! The leaves on the trees are turning all sorts of warm wonderful colors and soon the ponies of Ponyville will take up their positions for the annuel Running of the Leaves. The competition has grown into quite the friendly competition between two ponies in particular: Rainbow Dash and Applejack. Yet for some reason this competiton seems to have had an odd effect on Fluttershy, who seems to have been rather down as of late.

Join Rainbow Dash as she attempts to cheer up her friend and get to the bottom of what's eating at the gentle yellow pegasus.

Fluttershy tries to make a move on Rainbow Dash.

Rated T for Teen just in case.

Spoilers...

nah, it's too short for that.

Also, at least on my computer, I find it funny that there is a magnifying glass on Rainbow's head. She's like "what the hay is this?" Daww.

We all know Rainbow Dash had a terrible time watching the Great Butterfly Migration with her oldest friend.

It's the day of the next butterfly migration and the last thing Rainbow wants to do is watch a bunch of butterflies for a second time.

It's common knowledge that Rainbow Dash wants to be a Wonderbolt. She's proven again and again that she's the fastest flyer in Equestria already, so why is she so determined to earn that role? Money? Fame? Power?

Only Fluttershy knows. She's been waiting all those years, quietly cheering her friend on and waiting for their dream to come true.

A gift for I HV NO FEAR, for being with me since the start. You wanted FlutterDash, so I delivered.

Not all scars are visible. Fluttershy was the object of countless jokes and taunts aimed at her aerial ineptitude and her close relationship with Rainbow Dash during flight school. Even now, years removed from the fillyhood traumas of her past, Ponyville's resident animal expert feels the effects. She tried to build walls to keep all of the memories at bay, but now those walls are a little too close for comfort.
