This story is a prequel to Injuring Eternity.

Life is like a train ride, don't you think, dearest? The tracks have been set, destination picked and the ticket is well in hoof. What a shame that so many, myself included, are so focused on the destination that they fail to realize a universal truth.

Destinations will change, trains will be caught and missed, but there will always be somepony willing to journey with you—so long as you let them.

Thanks to the amazing lilfunkman for the gorgeous cover art.

Now with a russian translation!

If Twilight had learned something from her relationship with Rarity, it was that even if she was hopelessly in love with the other unicorn, she wanted Rarity to fulfill her dreams -- even if it meant sacrificing their own relationship and breaking both their hearts.

Edited version of a one-shot I never intended on uploading, but am posting under insistence encouragement of a couple of friends.

Rarity tries to make the ultimate sacrifice for love.

Too bad Twilight doesn't believe in no-win scenarios.

An entry for The Barcast Writing Contest #2: Make Rarity Not Garbage.

Decorating Golden Oak Library for the holiday season was never Twilight's favourite thing to do, but her friends have kindly offered to lend a hoof. Things would be going much faster, however, if Rarity hadn't found Sunset Shimmer's fake crown buried inside a box of decorations.

A short RariTwi fluff written while taking a breather from working on other stories. Based on a headcanon a friend told me on Skype which I had to make into a fic, because cute headcanons are my one weakness.

Sometimes you look so hard for something that you miss what's right in front of you.

You just have to keep hoping.

Rarity awakes to knocking, only to find a book the only thing at the door.

Reading the research log of Twilight's feeling ends up to be one of the better things she's done.

Accepted into Twilight's Library! I feel all warm and fuzzy now.

First place winner of the RariLight Creation Contest #2!

A day before the town-wide Hearts and Hooves Day party, Twilight Sparkle received a strange note in the mail. There was no doubt that it was Rarity who had penned the curvy script gracing the letter, but the riddle that lay tauntingly alongside her greeting was quite the mystery.

And Twilight loved solving a good mystery.

For Rarity, the words left unsaid are often most meaningful. A life of standards and a sense of class has led her to assume that breaking these standards are wrong, and that reining in one's true emotions is a path to success.

However, something has been keeping her up at night and threatening to break the mold she has lived by throughout her life. Which will crack first, her presumed lifestyle or herself?

Princess, Professor, friend. What more could a pony ask for?

Ten years have gone since she met her first true friends, and Twilight Sparkle has begun to find the past weighing upon her. She always knew that her friends would begin to drift apart with time; she understood that those endless Ponyville summers must end one day. Still, even though Twilight has accomplished her dreams, something is keeping her rooted in the past.

But the bustling, decadent nights in Canterlot are made for sharing secrets, and tonight, an old friend is waiting for her among the crowds. Could a familiar face and a guiding hoof be enough to lighten the young princess's burden?

Enormous thanks to the amazing Shadowsreached for proofreading and editing. The epic cover painting was created by CosmicUnicorn.

A recent visit to Canterlot has Twilight Sparkle excited about helping her friend Rarity to achieve some fashion fame in the Equestiran capital. In a chance meeting, she has made the acquaintance of a very important fashion designer who would like to see some of Rarity's work.

Twilight returns to Canterlot with Rarity to introduce her to this fashion great, but while they are there, events lead to both ponies questioning different aspects of their lives. What will they do next? Will things have to change when they get back to Ponyville? Can their friendship help them through these tough challenges?

After a full day in Canterlot, Twilight and Rarity decide to explore the palace garden's legendary hedge maze. Their attempts to unravel the mysteries of the labyrinth yield some interesting and unexpected results.
