Princess Celestia sends a friendship report to her faithful student.

When the contents of the message cause Rainbow to lose her temper, Celestia decides to teach her a special lesson in friendship.

This is a realistic view on how shipping would actually happen in the show. Almost every pony has been shipped with everypony else, but this is what would actually happen if two ponies ever attempted at a relationship.

...

No offense to any shippers, even though you shouldn't take any. If anypony would like to see any other shippings done on this fic, just leave a comment. Maybe I'll write it if I feel like it.

Because sometimes, just because you're immortal doesn't make you invulnerable. Sometimes, the one you're more proud of than anything else is the one that respects you the most, and sometimes respect goes deeper than either of you had ever realised.

Additionally, because sometimes an author wants to try and write something that doesn't end in horse sex, but instead adorable hugging and stuff. If this doesn't work out I'll probably go on and add some horse sex later, because people always like to see that, but I hope people enjoy it. My first foray into a full sized shipping fic, so please tell me what I screwed up.

EDIT: Updated with grammar improvements/education courtesy of the incredibly helpful kits.

We all know that particular fly that will never leave us alone while we're trying to do something. Some of us try and smack or crush it against something to kill it. What do you think the princess of the sun does?

Celestia's littler sister has kept a little secret from her for over one thousand years... Tonight is the night she shares a side of herself that Celestia was never sure that she had.

You are a humble business pony, setting up shop in Canterlot hoping to make a living. Your plans are partially derailed when the Princess herself decides to pay you a visit. It doesn't take long for you to fall head over hooves for the goddess. Yet you are unsure if such feelings would ever be reciprocated. Taking fate into your own hooves you approach the Ruler of Equestia herself, to find out if a future with her would ever be possible.

My very first ponyfic I ever wrote. Rewritten and somewhat improved. If you don't like second person stuff than this fic is not for you, just saying right now.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders are enjoying their last two days in Canterlot after the Royal Wedding. and, of course, plan on getting their Cutie Marks. They ask everypony, and they find out how Vinyl Scratch, Berry Punch, Octavia, Lyra, Colgate and the Princesses all got their Cutie marks.

Note here: sorry about only listing scratch, berry, Luna and 'tia in the characters, but I can only have five >_>

A strange dream leads Twilight Sparkle to embark on a quest to find the mysterious moonflowers - and perhaps also her heart's deepest desires.

A side-story to Andrew Joshua Talon's 'Progress' series, exploring Celestia's own troubles in keeping up with the times. While Luna has had to catch up with a thousand years of change, spare a thought for those who've had to live through it. It's not easy trying to remember everything, and Princess Celestia has had her own share of mishaps over the years...
