After suffering a back injury, Big Macintosh returns to work at Sweet Apple Acres. But after he comes home late yet again, he begins to see how he is taking things a little too quickly... and how he is not the only one hurting because of it.

Rated for sensuality and adult themes. Rating changed from Mature to Teen.

It's been two months since Twilight and Big Macintosh started dating, and what a wonderful two months it's been. As their relationship blooms, Twilight finds out through Applejack that not all of the Apple family may be keen on a relationship that includes one of their own kin, and a unicorn. Worried about their future together, Twilight asks Big Macintosh for the biggest favor she can think of...to visit his entire family, and see if they can't break old traditions.

This is the sequel to Sparkling Cider, my first fan-fiction. It isn't necessary to have read Sparkling Cider to understand Old Traditions, but it certainly wouldn't hurt!

Thanks to all my followers who have been waiting for the sequel, you guys rock!

Big Macintosh has loved Fluttershy for a long time. In fact, he was ready to propose the next chance he got.

There was only one small problem. Turns out Fluttershy is betrothed already, to another pegasus. And why are they calling her Warbringer?

Either way, Mac isn't about to let anything stand in his way of being with the one he loves.

Rainbow Dash, after getting her Cutie Mark, went to find Fluttershy after her shy friend fell from the sky. Her search, however, took her to the orchards over Sweet Apple Acres and the edge of the Everfree Forest...

This is the escapades of the Rainbow Dash and Big Macintosh standard and the stories involving how they met to their first date and everything inbetween. A MacDash story, obviously, with side pairings thrown in. Not sure on those ones yet though. (Character list may change through the story.)

First chapter proof-read by Captain Unstoppable so many thanks to him. :)

And the new, amazing cover art is by the very talented KarmaDash!

Sequel to Let the Silence Sing!
Big Macintosh is dating Princess Celestia, and now all of Equestria knows thanks to a certain foal photographer. Dating a Princess is hard, thanks to her demanding schedule and his work at Sweet Apple Acres. The two rarely speak to one another during their get-togethers, but the silence sings between them.

The Apple family farm is in trouble. It was once underwater, but Discord fixed that. Now it’s underwater with a horrible, evil, greedy creature: a bank. Big Mac has only one day to get the bits together. After overhearing the flower mares talk about him, he gets an idea. It’s the oldest profession in the world, so how hard could it be?

All he has to do is keep quiet while he conducts business. So long as the customers are happy, and the bits are flowing, it’s all worth it. It’s just his reputation, self-esteem, health, and dignity on the line. It’s just a roll in the hay— it doesn’t mean anything…

Right?

Big Mac has always been seen as the one stallion in Ponyville that always seemed ready to be a father. He had raised A.J. and Bloom almost by himself, and always has time for the CMC. But is the large stallion ready to be a father? Mac himself doesn't know as he stares into the crib that holds his son. Is he ready to be a father? And if so, what kind of father could he be?

This is also a belated birthday gift to Jake the Army Guy since apparently it is illegal to try to break into Hub and make MacDash cannon.

This story is a sequel to Soft Spoken With a Big Heart

Takes place during the events of Head in the Clouds.

After the train wreck incident, both Fluttershy and Big Macintosh have developed a strong interest in each other. The problem is, they are both extremely shy ponies who barely speak out about anything. Two months have gone by and neither have been able to act on their feelings despite it being on their minds day in and day out. Is it possible for a relationship, or even just friendship to bloom if the two ponies in question are nearly incapable of voicing their thoughts and feelings?

A story of finding the courage to face your fears and make sacrifices for those you love. It's not important that you SAY how much you care. It's important that you SHOW how much you care.

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

Fluttershy and Big Mac love each other, so they want to do grown up pony stuff, right? That's what two mature, adult ponies do. So, they do all sorts of lusty things, because they love each other, and are attracted to each other, and stuff.

All Fluttershy wants to do is help animals. Even when it might prove dangerous to her, she sacrifices herself for the well-being of her critters.

Being in the Apple Family comes with its struggles. Living in Ponyville requires a lot of patience. But having to live with both? May the Princesses help that poor pony.

This is a simple story of sacrifice, shyness, wise old grannies, rodents of unusual intelligence, apples, magic, and a whole lot of love.
