Apple Bloom is overcome with emotion. A simple slip of the tongue in front of one of Applejack's friends leaves her wondering how to deal with this sort of embarrassment. Will she be able to face her fears? Or will she keep her feelings bottled up inside of her, as long as she can avoid telling anyone about her little slip up?

No marriage is without its challenges, especially not that of Spike and Rarity. Despite the fairy tale-like circumstances surrounding their courtship (Beauty and the Beast is a popular reference made at dinner parties), their relationship is far from perfect: indeed, the combination of her overwhelmingly large dress orders and his frequent extended trips across Equestria as Celestia's personal envoy makes it seem as though neither one of them has any time for their significant other. Yet there is one key factor, one constant variable in their lives that will always be there to remind them of how much they love and care for one another, no matter what issues they face.

Thank Celestia they have Claire.

My mother always told me, ‘If you love something, set it free’.

I never knew just how much meaning words as simple as those could hold.

At least, not until today.

Each pony in Miss. Cheerilee's class was given an assignment to write in a journal every day of the week. Every pony has to do it or you don't get a grade. What does Scootaloo have to say about this? What does she really think about such things going on in Ponyville? Why doesn't anyone know about her home? Find out more and go inside of Scootaloo's mind as she starts writing about her life. What will unfold as she writes in it's pages?

(note; this is to be written as i see fit and updated when i feel up to it.)

Feel free to comment and give constructive criticism about it.

Rarity has estranged herself from her friends for nearly 3 years. The most anypony ever hears from her is a Hearth's Warming Eve card and her name all over designer clothing from Manehattan. Spike travels to Manehattan in search of his beloved friend. What secrets are being hidden behind all the tall skyscrapers and bustle of "The Big Apple?"

Thank you, psp7master, for the conversation that sparked this idea, nearly a month ago.

Thank you, starlight blaze, for helping to refine my ideas into a proper story.

This story was also partly inspired by the lyrics to this song

I've never really had any imaginary friends when I was a foal. I guess I didn't really have time for them. I mean, I had my books and my BBBFF, so I didn't really feel like I needed to create one.

I guess that's why I found it so strange when Rarity came to me, asking for help with Sweetie Belle. Seems she had managed to pick up one of her own, and it was starting to cause some problems. Well, of course I'd be willing to help Rarity in any way I could. What are friends for?
