This story is a sequel to When Life Gives You Snow...

Every year before Winter Break, Vice-Principal Luna goes to the local mall with a certain storybook in hand. Her goal is the same each year: to tell to the little children of Canterlot City one of her favorite holiday legends from CHS. It is a tale that serves as a warm reminder of the importance of the holiday spirit.

This is a prequel to Spring Surprises, hence the Alt-Universe tag. But, it works well as a standalone tale.

Zecora and Yoda have a short conversation about the Force, and then a surprise guest shows up.

Challenge fic based upon a thread from the Crossover FIMFic group, which dared people to write something like this, claiming it was impossible. I decided to prove them wrong, because I like a challenge.

Princess Celestia is immortal and therefore would seemingly never have a mid-life crisis. But she still ends up freaking out every sixty to seventy years, thinking that's the middle of her life. She then decides she must learn about the newest generation. This time, that mean's taking a night on the town. In Ponyville. With Twilight Sparkle, Spike, and Starlight Glimmer. You can obviously tell this will end well. And that I've spent too much time on the weird side of FiMFiction.

Set the day after May the Best Pet Win!
Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash enjoy some time out together with their pets. What starts off as a short pet playdate turns a fun-filled day together.

The story contains plenty of sweetness and cute moments.

Makes references to my Fluttershy & Rainbow Dash fillies fic, Crashing Angels but works well as its own cute short story too.

Rarity takes her friends to a Prench restaurant in Canterlot for breakfast and orders one of her favorite dishes, crêpes sucrées. Applejack is skeptical of the food - crêpes are just a thin layer of cooked sweet dough, nothing more than an excuse to eat whipped cream and sugar without consuming anything of substance. The debate over the nature of crêpes as food leads the pair to a bet, Applejack allowing the unicorn to give her a makeover and show her off, the unicorn going a day without her precious makeup and fake eyelashes.

But do the pair have ulterior motives for wanting to see each other in a new way?

Princess Celestia is aware of the prophesy heralding the return of Nightmare Moon. She plans to meet the threat herself bearing the Elements of Harmony, and is fully prepared to banish Luna again if she does not relent. No one ever asked the Elements themselves their opinion on the matter.

After being caught up with things, the Mane 6 decide to plan a sleepover just to hang out again. Once a game of truth-or-dare is started, one mishap turns into something more incredible than any of them could’ve ever imagined.

In the past, Sunset Shimmer always averted her eyes when Vice Principal Luna spoke to her. All too often, it meant a lecture or some other storm was coming. But, just once, she looks at them long enough to realize the terrible truth.

Making eye contact with your vice principal can be really awkward when you can't stop thinking about how gorgeous her eyes are.

100% innocent awkward teenager humor, 0% teacher-student romance.

Dear Miss Princess Celestia,

I hope you get this letter okay. Not really sure how you get yer mail, but I'm gonna wrap it nice and fancy so they know it's for royalty. Wouldn't want it to get lost.

Ma and Pa said to send you this letter because it's Family Appreciation Day. They said you like to get letters from fillies and colts across Equestria so you can see how happy everypony is. I think that's mighty sweet of you, Princess.

Now, how do I start this thing?
