Starlight Glimmer wants to fly kites, but the weather is not scheduled for anything conducive to kite flying. Things go awry because the name 'Starlight Glimmer' is in that sentence.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Thanks to Mitch H for an offering that became the paraphrased second paragraph and helping connect two discordant ideas. Also Tired Old Man for his input and edits.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

My other fics Sunset Shimmer is MAD about Everything and A Newspaper Solves Everypony's Problem are tied into this, though not strictly required for enjoyment...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

...assuming there's any to be had.

We all know Twilight. We know she loves to learn all there is to know about Equestria and the many creatures that reside within, but what about something new? Something that she hasn't seen before? Well if she can't find this unknown creature, she'll make one instead.

Big thanks to these guys, Quill Snapper and FanofAwesome for prereadin' and stuff.

Constructive criticism is highly encouraged. I know my ability to write has dwindled and I'd like to know what my weaknesses are.

Vinyl tells Octavia about the consequences of eating a pineapple. Tavi doesn't buy it. Rated Teen for mild sexual references.

From Season 7 Episode 9 - Honest Apple, we see Rarity play the guitar after being offered a try by Pinkie Pie. Surprisingly enough, she managed to play some metal, which no fan of the show was
expecting.

Surely, that particular genre of music doesn't suit a lady like Rarity, does it? When Pinkie asks her how she knows how to play, her answer is nothing less than shocking. Perhaps Rarity has two talents?

FEATURED MONDAY, 7TH AUGUST! Wow, thank you so much, peeps!

Nothing says romance like your half asleep marefriend covering your wings in tomato sauce.

Run.

Hide.

Dodge.

Survive.

In a world where none can be trusted, that is all she can do. But will it be enough?

For many years, citizens of Equestria have lived in peace and happiness, protected by the princesses and the bearers of Elements of Harmony; but soon, everything will change. This time there are no villains or unspeakable dangers; there's just war, hate, and ponies giving and taking lives. From the streets of Detrot to the Royal Palace in Canterlot, each pony will rise up against his fellow pony, and one of them will not rise up to see another day.

Also has a spin-off, called The Nest

Warning: Beware of spoilers in the comments! The story contains swearing and gore.

Now with a TVTropes page!

It was supposed to be a night of fun for two sisters. A few hours away from royal duties. But now it is a night that will haunt them forever. It is... The Curse of the Yellow Fruit.

"Twilight, I'm sure you and the girls will be able to look after them. After all, they can't be that bad, right?"

When curiosity gets the better of Twilight, she summoned forth the Freaks.
When confusion overtook the Freaks, they realized they weren't at home.
When they weren't at home, they'd need to be looked after.
When looking after them, they must be fed.
Painis Cupcake was not fed.
He will eat you.

Heh, just thought it might be funny to see how the ponies would respond to different TF2 Freaks. After all, GentleSpy living with somepony with equally high tastes can only end well for my writing skills, correct?

Twilight Sparkle is called by Princess Celestia and Luna to learn a very valuable, and unexpected lesson on being an Alicorn Princess.
