Love hurts.
After his latest attempt at gaining Rarity's affection failed, Spike decides to try making a love potion to win her affection. But what happens when Rarity falls for somepony else? In fact, what happens when everypony in Ponyville falls for somepony? How will Spike and others be able to survive when those close to them want to be 'closer'?

A 'Know your Star' story; only with your favourite ponies getting unneeded hassle and lies told about them. Won't this be fun? Probably not... But hey, everything can't be seriousness all the time, so let's take a load off and just pester some ponies, and Spike for good measure.

The never ending adventures of Know Your Mare march on and on and on.

Daring Do seeks a favor from her sister in Ponyville. Due to buried grudges, things quickly get out of hoof. She soon finds herself on her most perilous mission yet... with her biggest fan in the world. In the midst of truth and lies, loyalty and treachery, love and hate, one thing is clear ― some family situations are stranger than fiction.

The story extends in Through the Looking-glass and What Pinkie Found There and The Daughter Doo: Honorary Cutie Mark Crusader.

Celestia has had enough of half-arsed promises from her loyal subjects. It's time to wear a different hat.
