Life can be tough for a farmer. After a rough season Big Macintosh needs something to keep his strength going, fortunately, something worth living for isn't far away.

This is a short fic I did to fill in some time for my other stuff. Feel free to criticise and tell what you did/didn't like. Fic based off of the pic I used for the cover art (full credit to BobtheLurker for his art)

Applejack, concerned about her brother's relationship with Fluttershy, confronts the shy pegasus about some of the, ahem, 'activities' the pair get up to. It becomes a conversation that Applejack will regret for the rest of her life.

Part of the Butterflies Continuity, set after the events of 'The Bunny Suit'.

Fluttershy has a secret she's been keeping from her friends. But when the truth inevitably comes out will they stand beside her, or will they walk away in shame?

Tragedy strikes us all when we least expect it. Not only do we have to deal with the loss of someone in our lives, we have to deal with the loss of the pieces of ourselves that were taken away along with them. Bic Macintosh has had a year nopony would ever want to live through. When he realizes he hasn't really been living and just going through the motions he realizes he's not alone in his sorrow. With help, he doesn't have to hurt and find the road to healing on his own.

Fluttershy and Big Macintosh cuddle. Short scene of fluff.

Windfall takes place seven years after FiM's main timeline. The Elements of Harmony have gone their separate ways, but are still close, and all the girls come running to be there on the eve of Fluttershy bringing her first foal with Big Macintosh into the world.
