Takes place after "The Break Up Break Down"

Applejack is wondering if she's been a good influence on her quiet, withdrawn older brother or not. Rainbow Dash drops by to toss in her two bits as the two discuss how big an influence siblings are in shaping a pony's life, liberally punctuated by snark.

Note: I wrote this up shortly after the episode aired and promptly forgot about it. It's a pretty unpolished work, just a one-shot of two characters chatting, but I figured I might as well share it. If nothing else, hopefully the two trading barbs is good for a few chuckles.

Rainbow Dash and Big Mac endure the ordeal of the birth of their daughter.
Entry for Capt. Unstoppable's MacDash contest

Rainbow challenges Applejack to a dating competition. The rules: Rainbow picks a time and a place, then Applejack picks a time and a place, and whoever’s date is the best wins. Simple.

Applejack thinks that’s a dumb idea, but goes along with it. Rainbow means well, at least most of the time. It could be fun.

...Right?

Written for the AppleDash group's AppleDash Contest #5, with the prompt "Second Chances".

When Rainbow Dash finds Pinkie Pie in a sudden depressed, sorrowful state, she takes it upon herself to cheer her friend up.

But sometimes a friend doesn't just need cheering up. Sometimes that friend just needs another friend by their side every step of the way.

Not a shipping story.

(This is also rated sad, too. It just didn't let me tag 'sad' because apparently 'comedy' and 'sad' are conflicting categories.)

One day, Pinkie Pie visits Rainbow Dash on the school's field to tell her that Rainbow Dash is now the new member of the All Star Baseball Team! Rainbow Dash is very excited with the news but she doesn't know any of the players she is going to play with. So Rainbow Dash ask Pinkie Pie for the names of the players and...hijinks ensues.

This story is based on Abbot and Costello's most famous skit: Who's on First!

During the events of "Putting Your Hoof Down", what could've happened if Rainbow Dash confronted New Fluttershy?

~FlutterDash hints~

Song: Black Hole by Lindsay Lohan

Every week, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy play a game. And every week it’s the same, predictable result.

Fluttershy doesn't seem to mind. But when she confesses that she doesn't really understand why winning is so important, Rainbow Dash’s world almost explodes. Now Dash is on a mission. Not only to explain to her friend why winning is so awesome, but to prove it too. Because by the end of the day, come hay or high water, Fluttershy is going to win something!

Fluttershy just wants to play their game together next week, like always.

A story of two ponies and their friendship, past and present. Of winning and losing, the games we play and why we play them.

Inspired by her favourite books, and keen to settle once and for all who's the fastest, bravest, overall best pony around here, Rainbow Dash challenges Applejack to a race full of perils and pitfalls. To the winner, the title of Most Awesome Pony. To the loser, defeat, shame and ignominity. But when the dangers start getting a little too real, they have to decide what's more important. Victory, or friendship.

When Timber told the story of Gaia Everfree to the campers at Camp Everfree, Applejack laughed it off as a silly bedtime story. Before the night is through, however, she will find out that even the toughest of girls needs some friendly support every now and then.
