The ever-humble Rainbow Dash has selflessly agreed to give Scootaloo a wing-up on Flight School with a few lessons. Twilight Sparkle, however, has her doubts...

A parody of "Cupcakes", with Derpy Hooves as the insane lover of sweets and an eye for Rainbow Dash...apparently. What will happen when the gray, blonde Pegasus captures her blue, rainbow counterpart? Will it end in horror? Hilarity? Confusion? Probably all three, or maybe not. It's probably best just to read and find out for yourselves.

Princess Cadance is ready to take another step with an important aspect of love: generous donations to the Crystal Empire's technically thousand-plus year old orphanage and animal shelter. If some lucky ponies find their soulmates through the event, all the better to go forward with it.

Some of her guards get yanked into the list of candidates, including Commander Flash Sentry. He is told that it's going to be a fun time, but he's not so sure. The situation turns even more serious when he finds out the identity of the mare that is essentially buying his time.

"Luna, this is hardly appropriate."

"Nonsense, sister! You need a hobby, and testing the waters seems like a good starting point."

"But that's what the Royal pH testers are for."

"Wow... you really need to get out more."

Rated "Teen" for slight alcohol reference.
Contrary to Cadance's desires, this is not a love story.

Hearth's Warming is supposed to be a time of rest, relaxation, and time spent with friends or loved ones. For Twilight, it's more of the opposite.

Luckily, she's not alone.

Enjoy.

Starlight Glimmer, recently reformed pupil of Princess Twilight Sparkle, has a question that only one creature in Equestria can answer.

A very big thank you to the lovely Midnight Blossom for editing this story for me!

A one-shot comedy inspired by what I've gone through in the last twelve months.

Princess Cadence and Prince Shining Armor are expecting a little one soon. However, Shining Armor fails to hide from his wife that he doesn't know the first thing about foalbirth, or just how much it will change their lives. Before he acts like a total schmuck and says something idiotic in the delivery room, she takes him to foalbirth class, one taught by an experienced delivery room nurse and midwife. Overreactions ensue.

I did the cover art using stills from the show and one piece of equipment hopefully you won't see in a delivery room (should you choose to find yourself in one).

Lately, Spike has become a recluse. He won't go out. He won't try new things. All he does is stay inside the library. And Twilight has had enough.
(Used to belong to a longer series. Not sure what to do with it since I took down the series it was part of, but I liked this chapter. Now it's a one-shot. Might continue it.)

Every movie needs conflict. This is done by adding an antagonist to the plot. Black Pearl auditioned for a film that had a lot of famous names in it, hoping that he could benefit from their fame and reputation. However, the character he was assigned to star as was far from noteworthy.

Written for the One-shotober challenge!

It has been a couple of years after Discord's reformation. Despite this long period of time, Discord only just begins to realize how fragile his best friend's life is.
And there is nothing he can do to stop it.
All he can do is make a few promises.

Discord has lived a very long life and has done all he can do to use his chaotic powers for good, just like his best friend asked him to before she passed.
Since then, he has been waiting for her to send him a sign allowing him to venture to the land after.
He believes that the sign has finally come.
