Pinkie has a box made out of glass.
It's perfectly ordinary in every way.
Rainbow Dash says it's empty. Pinkie says it's not.
There's only one way to settle a friendship problem like this: Gambling.

After long years of being a slave in Zebrica (it's been a few months since they last played pirates), Captain Dinky has escaped her bonds (is free this weekend), and has returned to the sea with her loyal crew (Scootaloo, Twist, Featherweight, and Snails). But she does not come empty-hooved: she has part of the legendary map that leads to the fabled Lost Treasure of the pirate Espada Noche (which is apparently somewhere in town)! Now, Dinky and her band must battle rival pirates (Pipsqueak, Applebloom, Rumble, Snips, and Bee Bop), and the Royal Equestrian Navy (Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Alula, Sweetie Bell, and Firelock) in order to follow the map to the ultimate treasure!

This story is a sequel to The Two with Good Taste

*Strongly recommended that you read the the prequel first, though not required. It will just help explain a few things.

It's been two months since Fluttershy defended her 'princess' from the crowd of mean ponies during her pet adoption event. And yet, Discord is still waiting for her to realize that they've fallen for each other. He's tried his best, but his flirting only seems to make things worse rather than better. He's growing impatient, and he doesn't know what to do.

Meanwhile, Fluttershy has grown troubled over her clashing feelings for Discord and the way he flirts with her. But when she goes on a mission to save a group of innocent souls in need, she finds herself in a troubling situation, alone and in need of help.

Sometimes, a single event is all it takes for a pony to put two and two together.

"Hold on... What kind of spell again?"
"A Princess of the Day spell. It swaps my alicorn nature onto another pony, making them a Princess in my place for a day."

Twilight is a little fed up as the newly-minted Princess of Friendship Magic. So she uses a spell to give each of her friends a chance to see what it's like being the alicorn Princess of Ponyville in her place. And learns way more than she bargained for in the process.

The CMC is bored out of their minds with nothing to do on a lazy summer afternoon, so they decide to drop in on Fluttershy and see if there's anything fun to do there, and find that they may just be able to be of some help to her and Rainbow Dash in preparation for a few new visitors.

Discord is reformed and now on the path towards becoming a productive member of society. To help him stay on the straight and narrow, Fluttershy begins to write letters to him, with the two quickly becoming pen pals. With their sharing of letters, Fluttershy begins to learn more about the conundrum known as Discord, while Discord learns what it truly means to be a friend.

Collaboration with the totally awesome Flint Sparks! If you enjoyed the story, then definitely check this guy out!

A princess who loved a good tune,
Ventured to take up the bassoon.
But her playing all night
Did her sister incite
To banish her back to the moon.

But all the musicians unite
To save the princess of the night.
They fight to defend
Their bassoonist friend
And see this injustice put right.

One morning, something strange happens in Ponyville. For some odd reason, lemons have appeared on the doorsteps of every house in Ponyville. But, as the old adage goes, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Or something like that.
