Rarity and Fluttershy have grown closer since the Photo Finish Fiasco. They spend more time together and have become much more communicative with each other. A simple stroll through the woods can be more than it seems, and some things can happen that nopony would expect.

This is the first story of my challenge fics. Go to my blog to vote for next week's pairing.

Featured on Equestria Daily, December 28, 2013!

What could a smug, arrogant, disrespectful, inconsiderate, country-town farmpony possibly have to offer a seamstress down on her luck? Migraines, premature wrinkles, a revolutionary new fashion line, and a burning attraction that they'd both deny until the moon crashed into Equestria. That's what.

Rated "Teen" for suggestive themes, crude humor, innuendo, and shameless drama written by yours truly.

(Many thanks to the ever-helpful Pearple Prose for his generous proofreading and suggestions. And an extra-special thanks to the fiction and fanfiction authors that have helped push my writing skills to new heights.)

Enjoy!

Rarity can't sleep. Applejack had the audacity to fall asleep facing Rarity, and now she can't get kissing her friend out of her mind – and isn't sure if she wants to. But kissing your friend while she's sleeping is wrong... right?

Does the universe really want you and your soul mate to be together?

In Applejack and Rarity’s case – yes it does.

They may have only known each other for a short while, but in reality their relationship goes back years, and they don’t even know it! Stretching through their lives, they find that one recurring trend – each other.

But, although they always part, it can be certain that they’ll always … meet again.

This story is a sequel to The Fruits of Their Labors

Rarity always believed that she knew exactly who she was, what she wanted, and exactly how she would obtain it. Then she fell for somepony wholly unexpected: Applejack. When unhappy tidings call Rarity to the frozen North to spend the Hearth's Warming holiday with her relatives, Applejack accompanies her into the family fray.

The ponies arrive in Whinnyapolis at a time of endings, and find that relationships can be fragile things, vulnerable to the cold. Rarity will search her past for the key to her future, but the old house at Maple Cove may not hold all the answers she needs. Perhaps, though, two ponies will learn that there really is no place like home for the holidays.

After the mishap with Trender, Rarity and Applejack discuss their feelings about the situation- and each other.

What if the movie of Equestria Girls was just all one big lie? What if instead, it was an actually dramatic and shocking world - especially the high school? Instead of friendship and harmony, war goes on through the halls of Canterlot High.

This is a horrible parody of the webseries known as The Most Popular Girls in School. I am so sorry for this. It was an idea I got at midnight while hyped-up on sugar and I regret every word I type. By the way, I don't own the cover art.

It was a secret no-strings-attached relationship, that’s all. A few flings here and there, but that was it… and then, Rarity got a job opportunity that changed everything. She had moved to Canterlot to pursue her career, and time flew by. Now, five years have passed, and she’s lost contact of her Ponyville friends. Upon returning to her hometown, she realizes that everypony has changed in one way or another.

And out of all the news, what she didn’t expect was for Applejack to be a single mother to a four-year-old daughter. Now, that isn’t so much a bombshell on it’s own, but what puzzles Rarity the most is how sensitive her friend is regarding the little filly’s paternity.

After all, that’s what friends are for, aren’t they? To worry about one another?

Bad cover art made by me. Do I get a "YOU TRIED" sticker? Shoutout to OkemosBrony & twilight-the-pony for editing!
p.s. - take note that this story is AU to all of my other RariJack family stories.

Princess, Professor, friend. What more could a pony ask for?

Ten years have gone since she met her first true friends, and Twilight Sparkle has begun to find the past weighing upon her. She always knew that her friends would begin to drift apart with time; she understood that those endless Ponyville summers must end one day. Still, even though Twilight has accomplished her dreams, something is keeping her rooted in the past.

But the bustling, decadent nights in Canterlot are made for sharing secrets, and tonight, an old friend is waiting for her among the crowds. Could a familiar face and a guiding hoof be enough to lighten the young princess's burden?

Enormous thanks to the amazing Shadowsreached for proofreading and editing. The epic cover painting was created by CosmicUnicorn.

When a gossipy Rarity sets up the idea of using a spell to help her and Twilight find their true loves, they were biting off more than they could chew. Now these two mares will go to great lengths to change their destinies. But is all of that effort just spent spinning their wheels, or can Rarity and Twilight make their own destiny.

Story takes place between Games Ponies Play and Magical Mystery Cure.
