The doctors didn’t mince their words:  Applebloom would never be able to walk again.  Devastating news, to be sure, but it was her own fault.  Now her roommate, though…  Nothing about her situation was her fault.  It’s important that she understands that.

A Socratic debate between two bisexual girls about queer representation, identity, and anime schoolgirls.

Sunset came back to Equestria during the summer for some artistic inspiration, so Twilight sent her to Mount Aris. Guided by Silverstream and Terramar, they come across an unusual fruit and learn a bit about each other's cultures and their views of gender.

Canterlot had been Lyra's home for a long time. She had many fond memories of it, of the streets, of the shops, and of the ponies she'd met there. Her favorite memory of Canterlot, however, was leaving it, and that was because of the soulmate she found soon afterwards.

Now with a reading by Rainbow Infinity.

Scootaloo has been questioning their gender identity for months after a number of revealing incidents leave them confused and frustrated. After an enlightening conversation with Rainbow Dash, they finally understand who they are: Non-binary!

Fluttershy has never been good at talking. which is unfortunate, because she has some very complicated things to say. Things about her feelings, and her relationships with other ponies and her... gender identity. It's not exactly easy to talk about no matter who you are. But she can do it, because she has to. Maybe it'll get easier to do the more she does it, right?
