Applejack and Rainbow Dash, sharing the barn during a rain.
Sometimes, admitting your secret love to your best friend doesn't quite work out the way you had hoped and dreamed...

Another story entirely inspired by a piece of fanart, in this case John Joseco's Apple and Rainbow in a Barn.

Words can hurt. Sometimes, that hurt is permanent.

One too many accidents results in a falling out between you and Rainbow Dash, the mare of your dreams, and your friendship with her lies on the brink of destruction. Twilight suggests a vacation to clear everyone's head. Could this be your last chance to make amends, or will you spend the rest of your life filled with regret?

Alternate Universe for wingless Princess Twilight. Might just change this out, because it's a pointless change, tbh. :)

This is a story I've been fantasizing about in my head for a while now. It's had some changes in its development for later chapters to make sense.

The thing is, sometimes in life there are things you have to do that are hard. Like, way hard. Harder than they should be. Harder than bucking storm clouds someone overfilled with lightning seeds. Harder than pulling off a sonic rainboom in front of a cloud of ponies who don’t believe you can do it. Harder than … other hard things. That are hard to do. Yeah.

Shut up.

Like you've ever tried to confess your feelings for a stupid apple-bucking farmpony.

Rainbow Dash narrates her own life. Because you just know she would do that.

It's Scootaloo's birthday, and all she wants is to spend most of it with her idol. Instead she got something she never asked for.

At least not out loud.

A short, yet meaningful birthday present for Tad Stone. Thanks to Kev and Babs for the edits.

Applejack wakes up and finds her friends working outside. Try as she might, it seems that any chore that she comes up with is either already done, finished, or complete. What is it that her friends are planning and why does it have to be today of all days.

One of my best friends died recently. Why?

Why did she have to die and not me? Why couldn't I save her, why wasn't I fast enough? Why her?

They tell me to move on and accept the fact that she is gone. That its impossible to stop death and to bring a pony back.

I am Rainbow Dash, and I laugh in the face of impossible. I am about to make the impossible happen, even if it kills me.
