While going to cheer on their friend at the Wonderbolt's Academy, the hot air balloon is hit with a twister. How will Applejack and Rarity come to terms with the aftermath? Is Rainbow Dash really the fastest in Equestria? Is Pinkie Pie just a little too candid?

Find out!

This is a collab between my favorite chaos spreader Cozmosus and I. Spoilery!

So I'm awesome. Yeah, if you know me, you know that. I have Pinkie Pie for a fillyfriend, pulled off Tornado Day by the skin of my teeth, and got complimented by Spitfire from the Wonderbolts. Also, did I mention I saved her life once? Thing is, though, I don't think awesome is genetic. I mean, I love my parents and all, but ... at a distance. So naturally, they came by to visit.

A sequel to The Incredibly Dense Mind of Rainbow Dash, The Incredibly Troubled Mind of Rainbow Dash, and Chapters 1-12 of The Life and Times of a Winning Pony.

Rainbow is having a bad day, and It's not getting any better. Surely things will get better once she gets home to the one she loves. One off ship-fic with Rainbowpie or Pinkiedash, whichever you prefer.

Hope you enjoy!

Of course I have to give credit to my wonderful editor Shadowsreached for another great job in making sure things flow and sound like they should. Ironically, she's looking for an editor too so if you know someone *wink wink, nudge, nudge*

As always constructive comments are always accepted, considering recent event though, i will quickly block and remove any comments trying to start something

Rarity is alone on Hearts and Hooves Day, and she's not happy about it. A friendly afternoon in the park with Applejack promises to turn their friendship to something more – or at least it would, if either of them would simply talk to the other about it.

Between her awkward sort-of romance with Applejack, her desire to help Fluttershy find a special somepony of her very own, family, friends, and the general day-to-day chaos that is life in Ponyville, this fashionista's got her hooves full.

Side story to The Life and Times of a Winning Pony and the rest of the Winningverse. My thanks to Chengar Qordath and Comma-Kazie for their support and pre-reading assistance.

It's your three month anniversary, Rainbow Dash! So what are you running from?

After the fiasco leading to the split between her and Vinyl, Octavia is invited to stay with an old ex of hers in Ponyville. Begrudgingly, she accepts. There's always been something... off about Lyra, though Octavia could never tell. Now, caught between bad press and an eccentric ex, she's about to understand just what makes this mare so... strange.

When Twilight finds a horribly distraught Gilda in the library, begging for help with Rainbow Dash, what is she to do? Twilight, the number one expert on friendship, has been asked to help with a friendship issue, so why not? It should make an interesting letter to the Princess if nothing else.

A/N: here is the GilTwi I promised. It took me forever to get all the ideas and what not and special thanks

to For The Plot for all their help on this. Honestly, without that guy I probably would've just skipped this and done a raripie or som- no probably not that but still...
I have no clue where I'm gonna go with this thing, and am actually open to suggestions in the comments.
enjoy!
Knowing full well that I haven't finished it yet, I am setting this in the same Cannon as New Perspective, though it can stand on it's own.

Spawned of a challenge in a Skype chat yesterday. Nearly two hours later, I ended up with this.

The challenge? Dave Pones: Hmm, now that I think about it, maybe Lunatrix isn't all that unlikely. Trixie, seeking revenge on Twilight Sparkle, becomes Princess Luna's number one student. But the rising-star pupil didn't realize how close she and her teacher would become... Maybe that's why Luna was so ticked off during Crystal Empire

Rarity prides herself on her work, and when letters start pouring in from Canterlot after the Royal Wedding she is overjoyed by the enthusiasm for her dresses. Drawing on her friend Fancy Pants, she is able to set up a temporary shop in Canterlot for one month, where she will do her best to turn out as many dresses and outfits as she possibly can.

She swears to Twilight and her friends that she won't fall for the allure of the big city again, and that Ponyville won't have to go long without her... but once there, she is quickly swept up in the grandeur and glamour of post-Wedding Canterlot. Her clients are rich, prestigious and famous, with clout and influence to burn...

...but it is one mare, a simple gray earth pony, who catches her attention. She doesn't behave like the rest- she is quiet, yet when she speaks she is witty and clever, not dull and droll like the others. She dodges Rarity's questions about her artfully, which only piques the white unicorn's interest and nigh-on forces her to dig deeper into the community to find out about this mysterious mare named Octavia.

But what does she hope to find? Why is she so driven to find out more about the gray earth pony musician... and what will she do with the information she gleans?

Twilight has kept secrets, from her mentor, and from her friends.

But when Fluttershy accidentally discovers her biggest secret, she and her friends become involved in the darker parts of Equestria and its past.

A war has been raging in the background since long before Celestia and Luna were born, and now Twilight Sparkle leads it. Can she and her friends change the world for the best, or will Twilight become nothing but the monster her kind are made out to be?

You can never make the world perfect, but you can always change it for the better.
