Applejack is just an average mare living the life of an average hero in Ponyville. She has her friends, her family, and her daily routine, and that's just about she'd care to ask for. But when the going gets rough and a nightmarish leviathan of the Underworld or two ruins all her best-laid plans, there's problem she can't solve and no foe she can't overcome with a good, strong buck.

No, seriously. Absolutely anything. Just one buck.

Shamelessly based on Onepunch-Man, a manga about a superhero who defeats all of his enemies with just one punch. Tagged incomplete because I'll probably continue to add additional stand-alone chapters periodically/whenever I feel like it.

Applejack is the Element of Honesty.
What could she be like if she was something else?

Applejack is ready to call it a day when she notices something on her workbench that shouldn't be there. Realizing her mistake, the blacksmith rushes to correct it, only to be met with resistance brought about by a misunderstanding. One that she is more then capable of clarifying.

Call it a continuation of "Stronger Than You Think" ....kinda. Sorta.

She’s the loyalest of friends and most dependable of ponies; how could anypony not fall in love with Applejack? In fact, so much of the town has found themselves under her seductive spell, they’ve formed a secret society to help each other cope with their unbridled lust. Operating in seclusion, this group has been an unseen staple of Ponyville. Surely, though, nothing good can come of the mare herself discovering the existence of Applejack Anonymous.

The spell didn't completely remove Discord's influence, and Applejack and Rarity know this better than anypony. Months on, they're still having difficulty; a perfect record is difficult to return to after you've tasted corruption.
They do, however, have each other.
Contains some darkness, and some fluff. More fluff than darkness, I suppose.

It's Ghost Nappa haunting Rarity, what more do you want?

Although seriously, if Mr. Popo can come to Equestria, so can Nappa.

I genuinely hope to see Vegeta come to Equestria next. Apparently Vegeta's already in Equestria. Whoda thunk it?

After Queen Rarity once more rejects the advances of one of the many noble ponies who seek her affection, Princess Sweetie Belle finds out that her sister is secretly in-love with somepony else, thus her heart-breaking streak. Alone in the throne room with her sister and the royal body guard, Twilight Sparkle, the young princess decides that she's going to find out the identity of Rarity's secret crush, no matter what.

Part of the Bodyguard!AU Series, based on Earthsong9405's AU where Twilight is the bodyguard to a "Princess/Queen Rarity". Prior knowledge of the AU is not necessary to read the story.

When Rarity is at the end of her rope in need of an emerald to finish an order, Jack comes through with the only one to be had in the town or surrounding countryside. But Rarity recognizes it; a gift she gave Jack long ago, when they were schoolgirls and Rarity was unable to decide what her feelings for Jack were. Knowing that the farmer kept it all these years makes her reconsider her stance on the rough cowgirl.

Original idea I shamelessly lifted from Bookplayer, go and give her some love! Prereading thanks goes to Bookplayer and XL9. Editing done by Jake the Ginger.
