Maud and Boulder.

A pair as iconically inseparable as Celestia and the sun or Luna and her moon.
But such was not always the case. All relationships have to start somewhere.
This is the tale of the strange circumstances under which a lifelong friendship was born.

Rainbow Dash knows she's hot stuff, but not this hot! Something's up, and it's up to her to figure it out, all while dodging constant attempts to invite her into certain situations with certain ponies that she'd really rather avoid.

Rated teen due to an unrelenting onslaught of shameless innuendo and lascivious puns. By definition, no actual sex occurs, just lots of insinuation and double talk. I might actually bump it up to mature if enough people suggest that I do so, this being my first foray into such writing.

When their grocery shopping takes a wrong turn, Lyra Heartstrings and Bon Bon find themselves in a world of slightly damaged valuables, well loved relics, and haggle-happy vendors.

But are they finding trash or treasure? If only they could agree...

When drastic measures have to be taken to save Equestria from a resurging villain, Twilight and her friends sacrifice themselves for the needs of the many.

Luckily, when you're friends with a powerful unicorn neurotically obsessed with checklists, scheduling, and planning ahead, death is but a minor inconvenience.

Now they just need something to do until Twilight can sort out a few minor issues.

Some people say that Celestia and Luna are useless. That they lounge in the castle while delegating all their responsibilities to hard working, underappreciated, exceptionally well-read students. That even when faced directly with threats to kingdom and country, they fold like cheap origami and wait to be rescued.

These people are correct. But there's a very good reason for it!

[Rated Teen due to a dark scene early on to set some backstory, and occasional comedic death]

After telling Pinkie that she doesn't believe in the "Hearths Warming Pixie", mysterious objects start to turn up in Twilight's castle. Is this the work of her friends, or something far more sinister? And what in the world is she to do with all these birds and pear trees?

Though most view them as simply immortal powerful rulers, some ponies worship the Princesses as actual Goddesses. Some families with deep Earth Pony roots worship the old Nature Spirits of their ancestors.
But some ponies turn to darker forces. They worship monsters and demons, praying for plagues and misfortunes upon those they despise.

One day, Discord finds out that in his "extended absence", a cult formed with him as the Central Deity. Unfortunately, it's not exactly what he would want. These ponies will soon find out it's a bad idea to anger your god.

Once, long ago, two children made a bet with Death over the soul of their hamster. Death lost, and by contractual obligation became their "Best Friend Forever". Together, the three went on countless adventures, facing off against foes both supernatural and mundane. But when a portal goes awry, they find themselves in a strange new land. With no immediate way to get home, they're going to have to try and blend in with the locals to survive. But it's hard to remain inconspicuous when the sheer magical presence of a Reaper acts like a beacon to every two-bit monster and crackpot whack-job for miles around.

It's a wonder they don't go mad.

It's been several weeks since the grand re-re-opening of the Tasty Treat, and business is booming. In response, a journalist has come to interview the staff about their remarkable success. But after hearing practically the same story from both father and daughter, he feels he needs to ask somepony with a slightly different perspective. Luckily, much like every other restaurant on the Row, the Tasty Treat has a waiter on staff.

It's Flurry Heart's seventh birthday, and her parents have told her she can have anything she asks for (so long as she eats all of her crystal veggies, which she did). They expected something extravagant, but obvious - a fancy dress, a room full of candy, maybe even her own little throne between theirs. What they did not expect was the one thing she wants more than anything for her special day. Princess Flurry Heart... wants a pony of her very own.
