After a chilly night, Rarity catches a cold, so Applejack goes down to take care of her until she gets better. What better than a yummy, hot tomato soup? Maybe a lullaby and a belly rub.

An experiment gone right has successfully left Rainbow Dash's rainbow mane in Twilight's vial. But when Pinkie stops by for a visit and mistakes the rainbow for a drink, she decides that all of her friends must try this amazing creation.

How can this go wrong?

Side effects, of course.

Friendship Reports? Piece of cake, declares one studious Twilight Sparkle. Wrap a moral around a few choice paragraphs, and you earn your weekly rent.

Yet when the fountains of creativity run dry, Twilight Sparkle will be introduced to the common foe of all writers big and small . . .

Twilight helps her friend perform a sonic boom. But when she does, it reminds the mare of someone gone from her life. In the end, Twilight is there to remind her she's not really gone.

This is my FIRST story, please feel free to put in any -constructive- criticism that you may have so I can become better! Thanks, and I hope you enjoy!

Also, BIG thanks to Starlitalpha for the massive help and support given! Without it I probably wouldn't have had the courage to post this :). Thanks again!

A letter from Celestia interrupts one of Pinkie's parties with disturbing news. Now friendships will be pushed to the limit as Twilight struggles to uncover which of her friends is not who, or even what, she appears to be.

(While not a romance, this does contain a shipped pair)

Pinkie Pie would never pull a prank on Fluttershy, at least not until Fluttershy asks her to! Now she has to come up with a special prank just for Fluttershy without ruining their friendship. The only problem is, she has her eyes set a little bit higher than just
friendship...

When Rarity finds out her shower no longer works,
and that the spa is down for maintenance,
she goes out to get clean elsewhere.
It doesn't go well...

Author's Shower SHOWER SHOWER!: Title and concept based off one of my favorite episodes of my favorite show.
I'm...uh, pretty sure you can guess which show I'm talking about...
Also, this takes place before Twilight's tree house was blown to pieces...too soon?

A breakfast conversation between the princesses turns toward Celestia's long history of losing fights.

One day, while working at Sugar Cube Corner, Pinkie Pie comes to a startling realization.

She has no idea how Fluttershy earns money.

For Pinkie Pie, not knowing something so important about one of her closest friends is intolerable. But when she asks Fluttershy, the only answer she'll give is:

"I do odd jobs."

Now, Pinkie Pie is determined to find out exactly what Fluttershy does to make ends meet...

(Rated Teen for mild risque humor.)

Before Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy could head back home, the Hoofield and McColt families wanted the two to join them for a shared feast to celebrate the new bond between their families. And during that celebration, Twilight happens to find a stack of old letters in the basement of the McColt family fortress.

Letters between Grub Hoofield and Piles McColt.

Seeing that they were written before their feuds, Twilight decides to share them with the families to help unite them even closer. However, things might become awkward when the Princess begins to read them out loud.

I want to thank my buddy Zyrian for proofreading.
