Twilight is approached by Applejack with a strange request - to join her that night for a run, but all is not as it seems. Why is Applejack so nervous? What could this be about?

As an unstoppable hurricane bears down on Manehatten, Rainbow Dash has to face the unpleasant truth that not all of life's obstacles can be overcome. Sometimes you just have to do your best to get by. And when Dash gets the opportunity to become a Wonderbolt for a day, doing her best takes on a whole new, unexpected, meaning.

As an agent of S.M.I.L.E., I've always had one goal: Keep Equestria safe from the dangers that the general populace shouldn't know about. It's something not anypony can do, and that's precisely why I do it. The threats I face are fierce, and I don't always come home with a clear conscience. However, in my heart, I know that what I'm doing is for the greater good.

At least, I thought I did.

After being forced to shelter from an out of control storm, Star Tracker chats with Donut Joe over coffee.

Written in a hurry for the May Pairings Contest.

The 8th annual Daring Do convention in Manehatten grows bigger and better with every passing year. New friends are made, fandom strengths are deepened, and all involved will pray for the good times to never end.

But end, they must. Home, we must go. And since hotel beds are rarely conducive to a good nights sleep, so the return journey may be a struggle for Rainbow Dash.

Not remotely inspired by my own return journey from a convention here in the UK just this very week, no sir-ee you can't prove a thing, I plead the fifth. Wait, what do you mean we can't plead the fifth in the UK? Ugh.

"Zecora? As the Mayor of Ponyville, I owe you an apology."

So what does one do upon finding out that their best friend (and lately a bit more than that) has been hiding something from them? Namely, the fact that, once a month, they transform into the body of a destructive dark angel and spend the night hiding in their room?

Well, if you're Sunset Shimmer, you ask Twilight a magiphysiological question.

Starlight Glimmer has a secret project researching a totally new way to use magic, but she needs help. Twilight's help. Except, what if the princess doesn't approve? What if she can't see the potential? This is too important. Starlight must convince her, because the results will help ponies everywhere.

I am not competing. Do not judge me. Or do, but not the story at least. Anyways, if you want to enter and actually compete, the rules are there and there's 175$ across three prizes (100, 50, 25) to be won. Good luck!

Simply put: Filthy Rich hears about his wife Spoiled Rich's outrageous behaviour during the events of Crusaders Of The Lost Mark, and goes to confront her about it. Expect fireworks. And a broken glass or two, if you listen hard enough.

Dialogue only, as befits an entry for The Dialogue Only Contest . The clue's in the name. Enjoy!
