Despite all her boasting and impulsive behavior, Rainbow Dash knows next to nothing about sex, outside of what she (kind of) learned in school. Not only is Fluttershy her first romantic partner, but their first time together would also be Rainbow's first time with anypony.

Fluttershy doesn't know this.

My entry for the Springtime Sequel-Slash-Sandbox Switcheroo.

To some ponies, I’m a normal archaeologist who spends her days playing in the dirt.  To others, I’m a daring adventurer. When new access to yak territories yields a list of archaeological gold mines and one of them is in the Dragonlands?  I have to be both.

My story for The Springtime Sequel-Slash-Sandbox Switcheroo, written for FanOfMostEverything and inspired by his story Daring Do and the Weapon of the Ancients. Reading his story first is in no way necessary (but you should read it), and this story should not in any way spoil his.

(The image used for this cover was made by Ric-M some time ago.)

This story is a sequel to A Good Filly

The Crystal Empire was once controlled by a wicked tyrant. And though joy can be found once again with a simple faire, to overcome fear that festers throughout every bit of your life...

Written for Orbiting Kettle for the Springtime Sequel-Slash-Sandbox Switcheroo.

One day, Blueblood receives a note from Fluer Dis Lee, with nothing but a time and a place. Surely this is a romantic proposition, is it not?

Written as a spinoff/sequel of Dafaddah's excellent Pas de Duex, for the Springtime Switcheroo!

Sweetie Belle, having learned the value of practice and effort, takes it to the one being who least needs or wants life coaching in all Equestria... Tirek.

Written (belatedly) for the Springtime Sequel-Slash-Sandbox Switcheroo, inspired by the two stories contibuted to the site by DreamAlex. (Sorry, but this is the only inspiration that came to me; your stories really don't lend themselves to sequels by other authors.)

In the wake of the Crystal Empire’s reappearance and King Sombra’s deposement, a thousand thorny legal, cultural, and practical issues need to be addressed by the ponies of both lands. But there’s one issue that’s blindingly straightforward: the thousand-year-old Equestrian State of Conflict Empowerment Act is still technically in effect, and until it’s revoked, Equestria remains—officially—at war with the Empire.

Under the circumstances, nopony in Parliament could possibly consider voting against its revocation.

Right?

This story is a sequel to Once In A Purple Moon

One otherwise normal Nightmare Night, Princess Twilight painted the moon purple on a dare from Princess Luna. Now she's having trouble changing it back and is starting to panic over what the rest of the world will think.

Part of Tumbleweed'sSpringtime Sequel-Slash-Sandbox Switcheroo for Monochromatic

Over the course of her adventures, Daring Do has faced all sorts of monsters and villains-- but during a routine visit to a Saddle Arabian bazaar, she finds herself confronted by two unicorn brothers with a terrible thing: a business proposition.

Written for the Springtime Sequel-Slash-Sandbox Switcheroo! Very (very) vaguely based on the work of Impossible Numbers' Horse Apple Turnover as well as his Daring Do stories like Jungle Tricks.

Some years ago--never mind how long precisely--having few to no bits in their purse, Cheese Sandwich and his little brother Tomato Sandwich set out on a quest to acquire an accordion through music and brotherhood.

Written for Tumbleweed's Springtime Sandbox-Slash-Sandbox Switcheroo!.

I had the pleasure of writing a piece based off the works of Sketcha-Holic, particularly her anthology of stories about the relationship between Cheese Sandwich and his (non-canon) little brother Tomato "Tommy" Sandwich.

As far as chronology goes, this takes place after Tales of Two Sandwiches, but before It Broke the Camel's Back, and decades before the main adventures in Brother Bothers and Brotherly Bonding Time. Hopefully I didn't miss anything which would clash with her established canon.

Reading those are not required to understand this story, but I would still highly recommend them anyway.

Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria, Princess Sweetie Belle became resentful. Too long had everypony sought Princess Rarity's approving glance; too long had she been left out in the darkness.

And she has a plan. And friends to help her enact it.
