All Fluttershy needs is a little bit of help, and everything will be fine. She can always count on her friends to help her in her time of need. They're such good friends. But... where are they?

Gentle Strokes is a cynical drunk from Dodge Junction. Stormy is the proud black sheep of a wealthy Manehattan family. Together they're two shining examples of the student body at Camden — Equestria's most prestigious liberal arts college. Navigating their way through one night stands, flirty professors, "End Of The World" parties, junkie roommates, family melodrama, sex, drugs and Rock 'N' Roll as they try their hooves at a college relationship.

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?

Ponies get older over time. They slow down. This is a part of life. But Rarity, Twilight, Applejack, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie can keep pursuing their dreams as they get older. Rainbow Dash can't. This is her last chance to be a Wonderbolt, and despite working her tail off, she's not getting any better. In fact, she's getting slower. She just wants things to be fair. She wants one last chance to achieve her dream.

She wants to be faster.

This is what happens when she gets her wish.

A three part story.

An earlier draft of this cover art was featured on EQD.

Some lavender alicorn princess had the bright idea to create a holiday where anypony could come and tell their concerns to Mayor Mare. Any pony. Without an appointment. All day.

Mayor Mare almost made it through the inaugural one without snapping. Or drinking. Or plotting murder.

Until the last appointment...

This is the story of the first, last and only Ponyville Citizen Speak Up Day.

The title was inspired by Lethal Weapon and Cola Bubble Gum. The story was written out of an attempt to kill writer's block.

Rated teen for alcohol use and (likely) future swearing.

UPDATE: Briefly seen in the side box. Hooray.

UPDATE 2: New and improved, with ColgateTM!

Braeburn was in love.

Problem was, he weren't sure if said love would return his affection, and so he did confront said love about it.

Ol' Macintosh broke Braeburn's little heart, and the little cowpoke was just about ready to give up and consign himself to a life of bitterness, disappointment and unhappiness.

But when an opportunity shows herself, Braeburn decides to take a plunge, hoping that Macintosh would change his mind at last.

If only he knew what powers he did deal with...

Rated Teen for now, debating necessity of clop. Therefore no warnings section... For now.

But here. Have some BraeMac and silly gay romance stuff. Because I wanted to show up Guy_Incognito do it for the goodness of wanting to do it.

Thank you, and enjoy.

If you downvote before reading you're an immature, homophobic prick.

Rainbow Dash decides to revive an old pegasus tradition, but her friends aren't all exactly ready for it.

Note: contains AppleDashery and quite a bit of pastry.

Octavia has a musical history and a side to herself she'd rather not have to explain outside of Ponyville. Inside Ponyville... well, everything was fine until she spotted Vinyl Scratch. What was she doing here?

Don't panic, Octavia! Don't freak out, don't lose your mind, don't....
Oh well.
(And check out Goombasa's excellent dramatic reading!)
Cover by Page Turner.

Applejack, Twilight, and Rainbow Dash really enjoy each other's company. So much so that some ponies are beginning to wonder about them. Twilight and Applejack are a couple after all, so its a bit unusual that Rainbow always seems to be invited along. But sometimes, a couple is more than two.

Thanks to Steel Resolve, Lycan_01 and Macdjord for editing and brainstorming!

Applejack and Rainbow Dash have been close friends for a long time and, for some reason Rainbow Dash has never been able to understand, it seems as if everyone she knows expects them to get together eventually. To Rainbow Dash's surprise, Applejack abruptly decides that their friends are right and asks her out on a date. To Applejack's surprise, Rainbow Dash immediately turns her down.

Unfortunately for Rainbow Dash, Applejack is nothing if not stubborn, and she declares that she won't give up until Rainbow Dash has agreed to go on a date with her, no matter what it takes.

Winner of the second AppleDash group contest.
