Like, at all. Unfortunately, she has to get her immunizations to continue working at Sugarcube Corner.
With the help of a friend, she just might make it through.

This story is a sequel to Great Expectations

There is one birthday Cheese Sandwich never forgets: Pinkie Pie’s, and the three little ponies who share it with her. He never misses throwing their party—but the guests of honor are never there, and nopony ever blows out the candles.

Sequel to Great Expectations, and an alternative ending to Triple Threat. Note the Tragedy tag. This fic legitimately deserves it, so consider yourselves warned.

Cover art a commission by DragonFoxGirl.

Applejack and Pinkie Pie don't mind looking up to see Fluttershy flying in the sky,
or knowing that Rainbow Dash can rest on soft, fluffy, comfortable pillows while they can't,
or seeing bright, flashing lights that blind and burn their eyes when Twilight perform spells,
or knowing that Rarity can carry things and teleport without lifting a hoof while THEY need to lift THEIR hooves to do that.
Nope, they don't mind knowing that they can't do those things. Not one bit.

But when Discord get's rid of their friend's wings and horns before they head into a maze, and he doesn't take ANYTHING away from them, and their friends freak out, knowing they can't do those things now.
The two earth ponies start realizing some things.
Some very, VERY, VERY interesting things.

The Apple sisters fall down a well and can't get out.
They argue about what truly matters in life
as rain falls and the water slowly rises around them.

After the rousing success of her first party, bringing joy to her parents and sisters, Pinkie Pie left her home to teach that joy to others. On her first day in Ponyville she stumbles across a struggling Sugarcube Corner, and resolves to help out the business.

They didn't know what the outcome of the visit would be. All they could do is hope as the train whizzed down the track, that everything would be okay. That it wasn't to late, and that their world wouldn't come crashing down.

(My first story on Fimfiction, I'm sorry I'm really bad at summaries.)

Fluttershy has always wanted to give more of her kindness towards ponies. However, her shyness impedes her speaking, which makes her hard to express herself. After asking for her help, Pinkie Pie teaches Fluttershy to communicate with physical interactions instead, like hugs.

It works so well that Fluttershy decides to hug every pony in Ponyville.

Written with the single goal to create the cutest, most heartwarming short story I can imagine (without going romance).

After the events of the Fall Formal, Rarity can't help but think about how things have changed. With the knowledge that magic and portals to other worlds exist, her perspective on life has been forever changed. And she can't stop dwelling on that. Luckily, a dose of Pinkie might just be the thing to help ease her fears.

When the Cutie Mark Crusader's plan to get their cutie marks backfire, Applejack saves them but ends up stranded deep within the Everfree Forest. Now, she must use all of her wits and skills to survive as something not belonging to this world hunts her. Meanwhile, Apple Bloom must face the guilt of what she has done before it destroys her friendships forever.

Author's Note: This is book 2 of my series. However, it isn't necessary to read book one first, there will be a few minor references to the first story, but you'll follow it just fine. But why not check it out while you wait for the next chapter?

When Applejack comes of age for her courting to begin, she's far from excited. She doesn't need any special somepony in her life. But, when two colts show up, both wanting her hoof, she decides to put them through a few tests to see who would be best suited for her. Will she find that special somepony? Or, is a certain unicorn just in it for the wrong reasons?
