Fluttershy has seen her share of tribulations and tragedies in her time taking care of animals. She realized that the thing she hated the most was to see them suffer; especially when there was no guarantee that they would recover from an ailment. Fluttershy knew the kindest act she could ever do would be to release those animals… and ponies, from their misery. She would be their Angel of Mercy.

The last time Twilight Sparkle was in a maze where Discord was involved, the result was disastrous.

So why did her friends just force her into another maze of Discord's making? And why is she so angry about it?

Luna suspected something was troubling Twilight, but she didn't realize just how deep the hurt went...or how close she was to losing her.

Princess Luna has been agonizing over the best birthday gift for Twilight Sparkle. Running out of time and short on ideas, she turns to Twilight's friends for suggestions.

As it turns out, that was a mistake.

Fortunately, everypony involved will survive the experience (mostly) unscathed.

Now with a reading by StraightToThePoint.

When Discord drops by the donut shop one morning, Joe is understandably nervous. When the draconequus keeps coming back, the baker soon realizes his life is better with Discord in it.

Discord comes to the same conclusion.

One of them just needs to admit it to the other.

Thanks to Mykola for the pre-read, Punished Bean for talking through a few sections, and to CrazyDiamond and everyone else for listening to me ramble on about this one.

An entry to the May 2021 Pairings Contest.

It's been a long time since Fluttershy was afraid to venture into the Everfree Forest. When Rarity needs star spider silk for Twilight's coronation dress, she's happy to help. All it will take is a simple trip into the secluded grove they call home.

Second place in Quills and Sofas Speedwriting's Spookfest contest.

CW: Spiders. Lots of spiders.

After a long day in town, Fluttershy feels ill. While trying to recover, she has strange dreams and starts to recall meeting somepony on her way home that day. Hopefully, she'll recover soon, and be able to enjoy another blue, sunny day with her friends.

CW: Animal death and Suicide.

Expanded from an entry for the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting's "Colorful Characters: Fluttershy" contest where it took second place. The only requirement for the contest was to write a story centered on Fluttershy in an hour. However, I've had the idea for ages, and glad I finally wrote it.
