Twilight's been having weird, unfamiliar urges ever since she became an alicorn. Like an intense desire to grow flowers, or the fact she can't stop chewing on her wings when she's distracted. As it turns out, you can't just suddenly inherit the magic of all three pony tribes without getting the instincts to match, and instincts can be a powerful thing. Doubly so when you're not used to them, and especially when they're telling you that your best friend with the gorgeous wings would make the perfect partner to share a nest with.

Wait, what was that last part?

Originally this was supposed to be a birthday gift for Celysus, but I fell in love with the idea so it's gonna be a full fic now. You can't stop me.

(Rated teen for mildly suggestive flirting)

The Wonderbolts realized they wronged Rainbow after falsely accusing her for sending Spitfire away. Knowing what they did was wrong, Soarin and the others try to fix their mistakes at the urging of Spitfire. Even if they didn't get ordered by their captain, they were going to apologize anyway. They quickly find out forgiveness isn't just given out.

The developers of the new hottest arcade flyer, Gran Pegasmo 4, say that the quirky "Coffee Break" events are a fun little diversion from the struggles of the main game.

They are also, as it turns out, sadists.

Yet another silly little story.

Soarin is concerned after his girlfriend, Rainbow Dash, doesn't show up to Wonderbolts practice. He has called her numerous times, and all of his texts have been left unread. Spitfire is ready to berate her when she does show up, but Soarin is more concerned that she's even late at all. Rainbow Dash is never late.

Rainbow appears at Applejack's in the middle of the night with an odd request.

Originally written for a Quills and Sofas speedwriting contest with the theme "appledash" (romantic or platonic) and the prompt "the aftermath". It also doubles as a birthday gift for Luna! Happy birthday! Originally written in 75 minutes, this version has seen some expansion and editing. Special thanks to RedParade, applezombi, Holtinater, Decaf, applejackofalltrades, and Vis-a-Viscera for pre-reading during the contest!

Winter is over and spring is here. That doesn't make Fire Streak feel any warmer.

A commission for the madman HapHazred, who requested 'something with Fire Streak.'

This story was a Quills and Sofas Speedwriting entry where it placed third. Thanks to Mushroom, Lofty, Vis-a-Viscera, LostinFandom, Snow Quill, Nopony Pones, and Decaf for their thoughts during the contest.

This story is a sequel to Companion

Longdesc

A lot has changed in the years since Twilight Sparkle left Ponyville to become the ruler of Equestria. Weddings and breakups and newborns and fashion empires and becoming leader of the Wonderbolts.

But Applejack is still where she has always been. At the edge of Sweet Apple Acres, resting against the dry stump of a long-dead tree, watching the sun set on the horizon after yet another day of honest work. Watching the years tick on by. Not getting any younger.

Today, Rainbow Dash is there, too. She isn't getting any younger, either.

Continuity

A partner piece to Companion, which expands on the future of the RariTwi relationship mentioned here, though that relationship is quite unhealthy.

Author's Note

Not only am I a 100% Rarity simp as my current bio indicates, but I also am a total simp and cuck for the RariJack ship. Yet older AppleDash is canon, thus I must bow to its reality. Both Companion and this story are my way of resolving this, though this story is the much happier half.

Thanks to Decaf for prereading the first draft!

This story is a sequel to Why?

It's Hearth's Warming and Dash like most of the population of Equestria are preparing for a day of spending time with their loved ones. However a chance meeting with Wind Rider shows her that not everypony is as fortunate for some the holidays can be very lonely.

She tries to help her former enemy reconnect with his family for the holiday, even if her target doesn't seem to appreciate it and might not deserve it.

My second attempt at a story in the shows cannon and this years Christmas special.

After Wind Rider betrayed her Rainbow Dash only had one question on her mind, she decided to confront him, but does she really want to know the answer?

Based on a few idea's I had after watching 'Rarity Investigates!'

Retirement can be difficult for some ponies. This is true whether its at a family bakery or a world famous stunt team, and whether you're the outgoing old boss or the worried new owner. Ponyville has the curious habit of bringing the right ponies together, and on one thankless Thursday morning of sibling stress, it does just that.

Old mares can't learn new tricks, but they can sure teach them.

This is an entry in the Snippet Series, an anthology of old oneshots that I (and my good buddy Str8aura) wrote based around interesting pics I found. New ones will be posted every other Thursday for the foreseeable future.
