My surprise was genuine when I first got that invitation while picnicking with my friends.

I felt an uncomfortable mix of feelings as I read those words. Foremost was a sense of betrayal. But quick on the heels of that initial reaction came another feeling. One that made me even more confused and upset: jealousy.

Twilight contemplates her relationship with Shining Armor and realizes her love for him may go beyond that of brother and sister

After doing extensive research on love and evaluating her feelings, Twilight comes to the conclusion that she has feelings towards her hyperactive pink friend. The only question that remains is whether or not Pinkie is ready to put her heart into another pony's hooves.
This story, is now complete for the time being. this last chapter is a little bit of me trying to be more descriptive and improve myself a bit. please tell me how you feel about it.

This is the first story I'll be posting in chapters. normally i like to post them all at once so i know the story's layout and can keep the tone all the way through, but going through about 14,000 words at once over and over again can be pretty daunting.

I promise though i will not let this piece languish over a long period of time. If there is one thing i dislike more than an author never finishing a story, its one that stops updating for weeks or months at a time.

Also a shout out to Bloopsy from the ponychan board is in order for some continuity and in character wrangling later on in the fic. Also he's the only one to ever volunteer to proofread a fic of mine and his help has been invaluable as a second viewpoint during the later parts of the story.

Wall of text.... hope you enjoy and thank you for your time!

No cover image as i am no artist when it comes to pics.....

After failing time and time again, Twilight Sparkle has had enough. No matter how hard she tries, she cannot show a certain cyan mare how she feels about her. Everything she attempts is always to no avail and there seems to be nothing left for her to do.

Well, nothing but turn to the most trustworthy source there is, a book.

Nothing could go wrong, right?

When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.

Twilight's been waiting for this day for months, the moment when she can finally tell Celestia how she feels. But like all confessions, things rarely go as planned.

Another story written in an hour as a challenge from a friend.

The challenge this time was to "write a Twilestia shipfic without shipping."

My name's Rainbow Dash. I'm Equestria's fastest pegasus, I'm the Element of Loyalty, I've saved the whole kingdom more than once, I've laughed in the face of danger, and I'm a coward. That's right, I said it. I'm a coward. I've always been sure I could do anything. Win any race, beat any opponent, complete any job. But this is something I can't outrun, outsmart, or outlast. What's causing me—the most awesome pegasus ever—so much trouble? You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

Twilight has always had feelings for Celestia. But whether these feelings are for her surrogate mother or for her imagined lover, nopony knows. It will take something strange to make her understand just what she thinks of the Princess; something like her conscience becoming sentient.

After Twilight Sparkle discovers a new book of pick-up-lines, she wants to bring her friends closer by complimenting them with cheesy lines.

And it does more than bring them closer...

Rarity has fallen hard for the lavender mare from Canterlot, but there is just one problem, that certain mare from Canterlot is completely oblivious to it all. Thus, Rarity does everything in her power to escape the dreaded friend zone, from skywriting to asking Twilight's parents for help. But will it be enough? Probably not. After all, Twilight is rather naive, but a mare's gotta try.

For as long as she could remember, Twilight Sparkle had always though of Spike as an assistant and as a sort of little brother. But, as Spike starts to mature, she begins to develop new feelings for him. The question is: does he share those feelings?
