Ponies are like glass; they can fall apart.

When their most fragile friend finally, irreparably shatters, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie watch their bonds dissolve. Together, they have to find out that life is beautiful—albeit painful—and that friendship can survive anything.

At what should have been a routine doctor's visit, Applejack learns that she can never bear foals of her own. After an emotional breakdown, her friends do their best to calm her.

However, as the discussion develops, nopony is prepared for Twilight's revelation: the grand event which brought them together has left a hidden scar within each of them.

Tempers flare, relationships are strained, and the strength of their friendship is tested as each must come to terms with her newfound sterility.

Shortly after having messed with Twilight and Cadence, Discord has gotten a bad case of the...well there is no name for it. But he knows that only one mare will take care of him. Fluttershy had just returned from her little trip and the Draconequs has decided she needed a little bump in her life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This was written to be submitted to Equestria Daily. It has some spoilers from S4 so please be careful not to spoil it for yourself. This is my first Comedy fanfic so please give postive criticism.

Bulk Biceps and Fluttershy are partners in the Ponyville relay team, good friends, and two ponies many consider total opposites. One is an animal caretaker, symbolizing kindness though she cowers at any sign of trouble. The other spends time lifting weights, speaks boldly and brazenly, and struggles to fly with tiny wings that barely support him.
Though they might be different, that won't keep them from having feelings for each other.
Bear witness to their story, as their friendship blooms into romance in a tale of compassion, love, and generally acting shy.

When Twilight went back home, she left Sunset Shimmer to the care of her friends. Thirty moons later, she returns to Equestria, seeking judgment for her crimes from her former mentor, hoping that some form of punishment - a stint in the royal dungeons, perhaps - will help her come to terms with the past. If only it were that easy.

Can a rift like the one that has grown between Sunset Shimmer and Princess Celestia even be closed at all?

A story of past mistakes, resentment, the possibility of forgiveness, and hope.

A rather terrific dramatic reading of this story performed by Goombasa is available here!

Rarity has convinced Pinkie Pie to spend a little time at the spa with her. Since she knows Pinkie can keep a secret, Rarity takes the opportunity to ask some rather... personal questions. Shockingly, Pinkie is quite forward with her answers, but what do you expect from the one and only Pinkie Pie? After all, she loves to make ponies smile!

You know what I mean, right?

Being a Wonderbolt doesn't mean you're infallible. It doesn't mean you always have to win no matter what. It does mean, however, that you have to set an example for other ponies to follow.

Spitfire doesn't feel like she did that at the Equestria Games tryouts. Even though her intentions weren't as callous as they appeared, she still feels awful about doing wrong by Rainbow Dash and Soarin'. Luckily, she has a great team that will hear her out even when she screws up.

My mini-epilogue to the episode Rainbow Falls.

Young Cheerilee is happy to have finally settled down with her family in a nice town like Ponyville, and she's not about to let her nervousness about her first day of school stop her from making new friends. Most of her classmates seem nice, but...

There's one young colt who'll barely say two words to her. And she's determined to find out why.

SPOILERS IN THE COMMENTS!

Nyx, feeling lonely and unloved, casts a spell that hurtles her back in time to the Early Equestrian Period. Who will she meet there? What will she do? Will she ever find her place in life?

You can probably figure out the answer from the title.

So, I saw like four pictures of these two on derpibooru the other day and they immediately became my OTP for stupid, stupid reasons. But there's no way I can write a story about the two worst OCs the fandom has made without it being really stupid, so expect lots of character assassination and fourth wall breaking and memes and other stuff like that.

Nyx was created by Pen Stroke, who would probably have an aneurysm if he saw this because I'm breaking his rules for using his character. (Spoilers: he didn't.)

Snowdrop belongs to Silly Filly Studios I guess? I dunno, I wasn't paying that much attention.
