Elegance, beauty, grace. To Rarity this is the list of qualities that a mare must have in order to attract a fine stallion. Awesomeness, coolness, radicalness. To Rainbow Dash, twentie first century colts fall head over hooves for mares with these qualities. So when a little bet is put in place to decide who's right, the results leave a certain somepony stumbled.
Now Rarity is back in school, well Dash's school of awesome that is and she will do anything to learn.

A/N; Been working on this fanfic for a while (second one ever) just needed to spruce it up first. I'm trying to add as much comedy because I'm funny in real life (just believe me >.>) but when I write I'm really serious so... yeah. And well, I don't even, what... I have no idea what I'm doing in this fic >_<

A rose and a carnation are two very similar things. One of them sprouts with a vibrant smooth stem, whereas the other is cursed with thorns. To Rarity, one of these flowers reminds her of a certain somepony.

Of all the stories I wrote, this is my all time favorite. Sadly, its also the least popular :(
Not exactly a shipping story, but romantic in some ways.
