Rainbow Dash has been training for the Cloudsdale Cross Country Challenge, preparing herself to fly with Fluttershy. But when Fluttershy gets sick, she has to turn to an unlikely partner.

There is no way to determine just what a pony has been through with one single glance, and it is an impossible task; even for detectives. The only ones who really understand anypony is the pony themselves, but that doesn't mean you can't try to. If given the opportunity to either shun sompeony or to accept them, always go for the second option, and never make a pony feel left out.

Constructive criticism is appreciated.

This story is a sequel to Syncopation

Vinyl Scratch and Octavia Philharmonica. There's nopony in all of Equestria that doesn't know these names. They are the pinnacles of their genres and the peaks of every genre in between, but it wasn't always this way.

When they first met, Octavia was fresh out of the Canterlot Conservatory and Vinyl was the only member of Syncopated Records, a new music company created by Fancy Pants and his wife Fleur de Lis. They have grown since then, overcome trials both as individuals and as a company, but Fancy Pants still has greater plans for his company. Plans to expand, to become bigger names, to be known not only in Canterlot, but in all of Equestria! In order to do this, the musicians of Syncopated Records, Vinyl, Octavia, Harpo Parish Nadermane, and Lyra Heartstrings will travel through the princessdom, playing their songs and trying to make their own mark in music.

But it will be difficult. They'll have to be more than a company and more than a music group. They'll have to work together, getting used to their off-beat attitudes until they can work as one.

Syncopation must meet with Synchronization.

Every year, Prince Solaris of Equestria and Princess Celestia of Equestria have a dimensional meeting to discuss matters pertaining to both worlds. What happens during these meetings, nopony knows.

They each have a devoutly loyal Royal Guard who almost share the same name, Starry Sky and Celestial Sky, and both have problems with being around the opposite sex.

When they get word of this, they decide to fix this problem in their own way.

Based off of the 'A Broad Scope' comic short.

Living together can be hard. Especially when there are still issues after moving in with each other three months ago.

Hearths Warming Day is almost upon the village of Ponyville and no two ponies are more excited then Sweetie Belle and Button Mash. For the energetic gamer, it's a chance to get as many new games as he wants, but for Sweetie Belle she's excited because she'll be living a dream. After a year of saving their money, she and her sister are going to the Manehatten Hearths Warming Show where all the best actors, musicians, and performers play for one night only.

However, when disaster strikes leaving Sweetie Belle's dreams shatterd, Button resolves to help his best friend.

Octavia has a musical history and a side to herself she'd rather not have to explain outside of Ponyville. Inside Ponyville... well, everything was fine until she spotted Vinyl Scratch. What was she doing here?

Don't panic, Octavia! Don't freak out, don't lose your mind, don't....
Oh well.

Time Turner is one of Equestrias finest timepiece makers.

If only that was what ponies knew him for.

Instead, a rumor started by a certain party pony leads to trouble, as Turner becomes thought of as an adventuring time traveler. As you can imagine, Turner is not happy about this.

Truth or myth? Ancient lost civilization or just an old pony's tale?

No pony has ever seen one, and most haven't even heard of them. But Lyra knows that these wonderful creatures are more than just old legends, and she's going to find out... and possibly drive her roommate insane in the process.

Every pony in Equestria knows the names Octavia Philharmonica and Vinyl Scratch. Every musician in Equestria knows and reveres their talent and most semi-jokingly complain that Octavia and Vinyl's relationship should count as a monopoly on musical talent. Very few know their early story, years ago when Octavia had only just left Canterlot Conservatory and Vinyl was... well, being Vinyl.
