Twilight Sparkle is a successful mare - it's hard to do better than a pair of alicorn wings and a crown! Which leads her to wonder - why is she still single? Perhaps Rarity, connoisseur of all things romantic, will hold the answer?

"Because I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and there’s not a single creature with wings I can think of who is exclusively attracted to the opposite sex.”

Now with a reading!

And another!

Sunset Shimmer had no idea why everyone was taking to this new girl so quickly. What does she have that she doesn't? Besides friends? And an endearing personality? And a cute butt.

While burying Rarity in the sand at the beach, Applejack finds out a very important piece of information.

Random Rarijack, once again. Enjoy.

Edit: featured 12/14/19 🤘

It's not easy being a couple when you're the exact opposites of each other. Fed up with Applejack's carelessness, Rarity loses her temper and the two part in anger. Rarity knows she has to patch things up, but is distracted when a very important customer arrives. The last thing she needs now is an embarassing marefriend.

Applejack has other plans, however. How will Rarity react when she learns that what she asked for isn't what she wanted?

Put on your costume and powder your face.
Give yourself a chance to finish the race.
Keep dancing on that stage until the curtain falls at last.
And laugh, Ponyacci, laugh...

The great clown Ponyacci was a life-long inspiration to Pinkie Pie. She was honored to count him among her large circle of friends, not that they were ever close. That's why, one cold and windy day, she was surprised and excited to get his invitation. She was also surprised, and far less excited, when she found him. Now she's left with questions, heartache and a need to understand: Why?

15th place finisher in the August 2014 writeoff, "Famous Last Words", and Most Controversial Entry. Familiarity with Micro-Series comic #5 is suggested.

I should be happy for her right? She's my best friend and she's getting married, so how could I not be happy for her? She's marrying the stallion who was just perfect for her and she'd be living close enough to visit me every so often. How could I have not been happy for her? I had all the time in the world to try and be with her, but I got nowhere. If this is what makes her happy, then who was I to oppose her decision?

It's Hearth's Warming Eve in Ponyville, and everypony is happy. Well, mostly. Fluttershy's plans for spending time with her family were cancelled, but Applejack decides that it would be best if she stayed with Applebloom and herself.

Happy holidays everyone!

Sorry if this isn't the best, just some shippy stuff that I wanted to do.

Octavia's and Vinyl's life together. You think it's simple, and I'm going to prove you're wrong.

So, heads or tails?
