Loving someone is more than just an emotion. It becomes a part of us and changes who we are. Without that other person, we simply aren't complete.

Rainbow knows this. Rarity knows this. And that's why simply being together over lunch is all they need in the world.

Rarity and Twilight are dating. Rainbow Dash just asked them both out as a joke.

She didn't expect them both to say yes.

Rainbow Dash wasn't sure what to expect when Rarity called her, asking for a ride in the middle of the day. When it becomes clear that what Rarity needs is more than just a pick up, Rainbow takes her on a drive. Maybe what she finds at the end of the trip will be exactly what Rarity needs.

It was the night of the CMC's cute-ceañera, and to celebrate the adult ponies decided to throw themselves a big party at Sweet Apple Acres. After a long night of heavy drinking, a seriously drunk Rainbow Dash decides to head into town in search of food.

It goes downhill from there.

Sometimes, Rarity loves Rainbow Dash; other times, she is incredibly frustrating. Not that Rarity would ever admit any of this, of course. After all, how could a tomboyish athlete love a frou-frou seamstress?

Applejack and Twilight are good ponies. They've been dating for three months, and they both agree that some things are worth waiting for. But when Rainbow Dash brags about what she and Rarity did on their second date, it kicks off a day of questions for both couples. What do good ponies do when, and why?

Love is a like a garden, Rarity had always known that. You had to take care of the garden that was love: water it with affection, weed out petty fears, nurture the timid intimacies. But the weeds that suffocate the flowers and feast on the trees can strike with little warning even when the utmost care is taken. The rot of despair can eat away at the green no matter how much love is poured into a relationship.

Rainbow deals with the possibility of a flightless future in the aftermath of a brush with death with help from Rarity. Many waters cannot quench love; perhaps not even crippled wings can dampen it for long.

(Sequel to Where the Sun is Silent. You do not really have to have read that story to enjoy this one. Know only that Rainbow and company were pawns in the sick games of an elder god of chaos and that she was seriously injured.)

Applejack reached up with a fore hoof to touch the brim of her hat. It was habitual, almost unconscious. She could feel, nestled safely underneath the hat, her two most precious treasures--a single blue feather and a small snippet of purple mane.

They were precious, more precious than anything besides her family and her farm, because they were only pieces of them she'd ever have.

After a long day of grueling Wonderbolt practice, Rainbow Dash arrives home to find that her marefriend Rarity has set up a scavenger hunt for her. With promises of a prize, Dash sets aside her rest to solve it!

Your Hearth's Warming gift is the ultimate way to show your loved ones how much you care about them, so it's absolutely, positively important that you make sure it's the best it can be! At least, that's what Pinkie Pie says, and who is Rainbow Dash to argue with that logic? If you love your friends, you should go out of your way to make sure that their gifts are super special.

But when Rainbow starts feeling like her gift to Rarity might not be as perfect as she thought it was, she begins to worry that Rarity might get the wrong idea. Twilight's Hearth's Warming Eve party is tonight, so she'd better hurry and find something special!
