When Thorax saw the destruction and pain his species was causing in Canterlot, he couldn't help but feel guilty. But, some new, unknown emotion welled up inside him, one he didn't want to control.

(Extended on 10/4/2016)

Besides, what made you think he just stood idly aside?

Sweet Apple Acres has finished a long expensive building project and a bright future is ahead. Too bad Thunderlane was careless and crashed into it, toppling it completely. Now he has to work to pay off the damages, but will he even survive two minutes in the Apple family work environment? Better yet, can the rest of the Apple Family keep Applejack from working him too hard? A story of accepting and carrying responsibility, and of knowing when to share the load. Stress can drive one to not act like themselves, and a little extra help can make all the difference.

This story has not been fully edited yet, i apologize for anything sloppy.

Applejack has always been a pony everypony could rely on, honest, hard working and reliable. But can she be honest with herself?

When Rarity discovers that Pinkie Pie has never been to a mall before, she takes her to the King of Pranceshia mall, one of the biggest malls in Equestria. However, when Pinkie starts acting... like Pinkie, Rarity starts to question if her idea was really such a wise one.

Read the sequels! That is, um... if you want to.
At the Mall Again
Return to the Mall

This story is a sequel to Hey, Sunshine. Help Me with This Crossword.

Before she goes on a mission with Pharynx, Sweetie Drops (or Bon Bon) has to know if she can trust him. Hence, her test.

THIS IS NOT A ROMANCE STORY.

I refer to 'Bon-Bon' as 'Sweetie Drops' in this story because it felt right. Instead of 'Bon-Bon', the pony who works in Sweetie Drops Candies selling candies, she's 'Sweetie Drops', the special agent who works for the "super-secret anti-monster agency" as she refers it in Slice of Life.

Applejack's cousin from Las Pegasus, a dancer, comes to visit, and catches everyone off guard. Especially Spike, who is instantly smitten with the young mare--and Rarity is none too happy about it.

Applejack has been asked by a special little dragon to help conquer his fears and ask the mare of his dreams on a date.

Will she succeed in helping a friend in need or will she find herself seeing the young drake as more than a friend?

Things may not have had a positive outcome for both of these ponies. But sometimes things happen turn out better then before. A fortunate accident, if you will.

Pondering on how he behaved at the Sisterhooves Social, somepony is quite competitive and wants to challenge him with a deal that could help him with the upcoming Cider Season. But if he loses, well its going to be quite a earful from his Sister.

Tonight, Princess Luna wanders over Equestria, reflecting on her past decisions, and her own self-worth. As much as Luna has grown and overcome inner turmoils over the years, thanks to her sister and friends, she still can't shake the feeling that her night is inferior to her sisters day. But an unexpected admirer of hers stops for a chat.

(commisioned cover art arrived!)
Cover Artist: Vird-gi

I not only dedicate this story to anyone who may be feeling down as of recently, or at any point in their life. But also my cover artist Vird-Gi, who has been feeling a little low lately. Her cover art for this story will be coming soon, but it has been postponed. I want to give her time to feel better and look after herself first, as her well being is more important than cover art.

Hope you feel better soon, dear.

(UPDATE:)
She is feeling better! The cover art came out better than I could have imagined. You are a wonderful artist! I recommend her to everyone!

Credit to: PrussiAntique For amazing edits and advice, of which the story wouldn't have come together properly without. You are a star!
