When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.

*6-16-2017 Edit, added Rainbow Dash tag because it triggered knighty.*

What started as a normal friendly visit ends up taking two ponies on a trip down memory lane that leads them both to realize their friendship began even before Rainbow Dash's first sonic rainboom.

Warning, this work of fiction contains multiple fourth wall breaks, massive silliness, and more than a trace amount of alicorns.
The author may or may not have snapped at times in the writing of this work, and it shows. Bring a towel, you may get wet.

Pinkie Pie is throwing a party to celebrate Ponyville's 100th birthday, and everypony will be there to celebrate the momentous occasion!

But as news of the party spreads, Gaston sees the party as an insult to his glorious chest hair and throbbing muscles and decides to throw his own party in an attempt to outshine the strange pony folk and prove his manliness to the entire world.

When Twilight gives Fluttershy the wrong book Fluttershy...changes.

Luna has had enough of Celestia's games, and has found the perfect means of revenge. Using a long-forbidden spell, she transforms her sister into little more than a small filly, all so she could pull the greatest prank ever. Unfortunately, she soon learns that before you fool around with dangerous magic, you really need to read the fine print...

A sequel can be found here.

Luna is a hardcore gamer, and it piques Celestia's curiosity. She's skeptical at first, but Celestia is willing to learn about Luna's favorite pastime.

Being locked up in the moon is a long time for anypony. What with all the wars, inventions, revolutions, and annoying new nieces, it can be hard to get used to things. Especially the modern vernacular. So Luna tries to learn slang.

It . . . doesn't end well.

A single changeling is blamed for making Chrysalis' plan to take over Equestria fail. He's banished and thrown out of the hive, ending up somewhere far away.

Luckily, he ends up not too far from a certain well-known village, where he can feed to his heart's content.

Needless to say, not everything goes according to plan.
