A lonely Pegasus, scared by the world around her and content just being by herself. On a faithful day, she earns her cutie mark. What if on the same day, she also found a dragon egg. How would one simple shift change Fluttershy and Spike's life?

AKA, a story I'm surprised didn't get made sooner.
Inspired by The Dragon of sweet apple acres, My Dragon Brother, and Spike Pie.

Special thanks goes out to

On a day like any other, Rainbow has plans; just not like any other day. But unfotunately, some ponies just have to destroy it and other ponies start thinking of other things- mainly two: Date and Love. What will Rainbow do?

Note: This is set before season 8

Zephyr Breeze had come to the Daring Do convention in Manehattan with high hopes of surprising his crush, Rainbow Dash. After all, she loves Daring Do, right?

Rainbow Dash was bummed that she couldn't go to this year's Manehattan Daring Do convention, but she had Wonderbolts practice, so she simply wouldn't be able to be there.

A.K. Yearling was on a mission. Scratch that, she just completed it. Now all she had to do was blend in with all the Daring Do cosplayers until the convention closed for the day. Wait, who in Celestia's name is this stallion? And why's he calling her "Rainbows?"

Note: This story is my entry into the May 2020 Pairing Contest.

Note: This story is written to take place before Season 9, so any continuity problems from episodes such as Daring Doubt are not actually continuity errors at all.

shortdesc

In the blighted world of the Flim Flam timeline, Big Mac and Zephyr Breeze hold on to the remains of what they've lost.

note

written in one day for the May Pairings Contest 2023 and the 2023 Cyberpunk Equestria Story Contest.

this ended up being a lot of weird ideas about the Flim Flam timeline inspired by Paolo Bacigalupi's "The Calorie Man". the noun "calorie-mare" in this story is, of course, very directly inspired.

This takes place during season 8 during Hearth's Warming season where Zephyr Breeze had moved into his own apartment in Ponyville and works at the spa as a manestylist.

this is my first fic I've ever written and I'll try to update this fic as much as i can

This story is a sequel to You will Love Me

It has been a total of four weeks since Discord was captured by Fluttershy who her obsession for Discord to love her is starting to affect him more. Now Discord needs to hold on to the hope of escape but what he didn't know is that for him to escape is for him to lose his closest friends in the process. Would Discord fully escape from Fluttershy's grasps or he will grant Fluttershy's wish of being her love forever?

Zephyr realises that with magic, Equestria has more ponies than it needs. Feeling like a constant burden, he decides Equestria would be better off if he were dead. He struggles with his thoughts while acting confident to make everypony think that he's okay. Meanwhile, Fluttershy and her friends assume he's just lazy, and believe that kicking him out of home and assigning him increasingly trivial work is the solution.

This story is a sequel to Restart

Time after Time, Death after Death, Restart after Reset.
How many times has Zephyr Breeze been through this?
How long has he spent reliving the same two weeks?
Well, It's over. It's finally over.

Discord has finally been defeated, And Zephyr Breeze can finally return to a normal life, away from all of the Chaos.

Only that, after being in a time loop for so long, having a Normal life is harder than it seems.

This Story takes place after the events of my discontinued story, Restart.
There will be flashbacks to explain what happened, so don't worry about needing to read it.

It is the eleventh century and world is at war with faction's across vying with one another in conflict, for dominance, ideology, greed or want. It is a time of ruin, of tragedy, and the forging of the world's fate to come in blood and iron. All the while Equestria faces its darkest hour as it is set to be nearly annihilated by the changeling menace. The rallying cry to defend one's country for home and hearts has been sounded and the few that can are called up to fight, whether they are willing to or not.
It is also during this time that Zephyr Breeze, the younger brother of Fluttershy, has decided to run away from the conflict to anywhere he can. Where? —Anywhere that isn’t going to get him killed or forced into being a soldier of course.
So armed with nothing more than the clothes on his back, a suitcase, the emergency funds he acquired during his many depression naps following an incident he refuses to talk about, and a dubious magical blessing along with a compass from Discord, he embarks on his journey to get to someplace safe smuggling himself on a ship bound for The Draconic Isles. Hopefully nothing will go wrong, but with a tendency towards curiosity and a willingness to push past social boundaries something will surely will come out of the first stop on his trip, The Isles.
