Twilight Sparkle prides herself on following and sticking to her plans, but she isn't as organized as everypony thinks. Her master list, the plan for her life, has an item that she has never been able to check off; and the time has come to fix that. How hard can it be? All she needs to do is go on a date and get a kiss.

Applejack discovers one morning that her precious apple trees are being targeted by apple thieves, and she and Big Mac are not pleased. After an incident with Rainbow Dash and a flying monster, Fluttershy is eager to come to Sweet Apple Acres and lend a hoof, but she's acting a little oddly, and the investigation causes some strain between the two as they try to figure out who - or what - the thief is.

Rainbow Dash loves pranks, and thinks she's come up with the perfect prank for Fluttershy when she convinces her that she's turning into a tree.

What makes a good story? Is it delicate prose and captivating description, as Twilight Sparkle claims, or is it non-stop action and entertainment, as Rainbow Dash has been arguing? With a stalemate between them, they decide there's only one way to settle this once and for all—a write-off!

The prompt? "Romance."

Featured on Equestria Daily!

Twilight Sparkle is a gifted student and scholar. When she attempts to harness her creative side by writing a science-themed sensual romance novel, however, things rapidly get out of hoof. Can her friends stage an intervention before she humiliates herself (and them) at a prestigious literature recital?

No. No, they cannot.

Rainbow Dash's latest flying routine was interrupted by a sudden mountain, and Twilight can hardly sleep at night. No pony should be this excited to play with necromancy.
