Being a fashion designer is not easy - it takes creativity, dedication, and a lot of work. Rarity knows that, and while she wouldn't trade the life she chose for anything in the world, she still needs a break sometimes. What better opportunity is there than going on a walk with a friend - one who has become dearer to her than she had ever been willing to believe?

Cup Cake knows what the pegasus mare is doing. She can see the way the filly is swaying her flawless body around Sugar Cube Corner. She can hear the flirty tones in the perfect voice as the mare sings her siren song to Carrot...

Rarity has a problem with the way Spike snuggles with her at night. Instead of holding her in his arms like she wants, he simply lays on top of her, smothering her every night. She hates to do it, but she waits until he falls asleep and then pulls herself out from under him, curling up into a small ball in what space is left on the bed. She knows things have to change, but after she brings up the subject, she fears that she may have just done more damage than good.

Home alone for the first time is a ritual of passage for the young. It's all fun and games for one filly ... until night falls. Are those creaks the sounds of the house settling in or the stalking steps of something searching sustenance?

Rarity and Applejack have a quiet conversation in the orchard about the meaning of beauty.

A new Saddle Arabian restaurant opened a couple months ago, and Rarity has been suggesting she and Applejack give it a try ever since. With Hearth's Warming just around the corner, and the restaurant just one town over, Applejack decides it would make a good early present and takes Rarity out to dinner.

Now, if she could just quit worrying about those clouds rolling in and focus on their date...
