Braeburn is the makeshift tour guide for the town of Appleoosa's growing number of visitors. He enjoys his job and is paid enough to get by, leading a pretty good life. One evening, Vinyl Scratch, disheartened and bitter, turns up in Appleoosa seeking solace. Braeburn, being the friendly face of the small settlement, extends a professional gesture of hospitality. Things get quickly personal, as the duo are pulled into a friendship tied closely with Vinyl's problems, and Braeburn's efforts to help her sort things out.

Hearth's Warming Eve was one of the many holidays where Rainbow Dash would've appreciated, with sledding alongside the rest of the Mane Six and her usual snowball fights with Scootaloo. Instead she was stuck with nursing a pony who had, much to her dismay, a few problems of his own.

Through the twelve days towards the Winter Wrap Up, however, the pony, inaptly named Taciturn Bleach, began to inspire her, only by his rare and drastic talent; one that she had found out perplexed most, if not, all of the ponies around, including her.

After all, not all rainbows have to be colorful to be perfect.

What if.

What if she had been born as nobility? As an equal? As somepony with a place in life?

Then maybe - just maybe - the rain would cease.

(An experimental piece set in Aegis Shield's "The Return of Princess Nightmare Moon". You don't have to read that to understand, but it'll make a great deal more sense.)

She's just so amazing. Everything about her should be praised from her beautiful red mane to her lemonade like fur. I can't help but watch, due to my own fear of spontaneously combusting by her beauty. Even now I run a risk.

I only watch her from the outskirts of her view, her not leaving mine as I sit in the background.

(This story will be written in a new type of style I'm trying to produce involving poetic undertones and not-so long chapters. There will be future appearances from the cast and longer chapters in the future)

Life can be tough for a farmer. After a rough season Big Macintosh needs something to keep his strength going, fortunately, something worth living for isn't far away.

This is a short fic I did to fill in some time for my other stuff. Feel free to criticise and tell what you did/didn't like. Fic based off of the pic I used for the cover art (full credit to BobtheLurker for his art)

It was the happiest I had been my entire life.
I was able to forget and move on. For the rest of my adolescent years I lived out my life in a satisfied stupor; careless to the rest of the world and only focusing on my friends and my job—most of the time. For three years I lived content and lazy in the beautiful town of Ponyville. I didn't expect that my life would be so full of adventure and fame. I only expected to escape my old life, but instead found something even more grand and beautiful than a mere vacation from my suffering.
I wanted more than anything to keep it from all falling apart.

Love comes in many forms: love for your family, your friends, your country, and your people. Twilight Sparkle has experienced it all, except one kind. True love, the love you stake the rest of your life on. As the royal wedding of her dear friends draws nearer, she begins to feel the desire for a love of her own.

Troubled and lonely from the newly-revealed gap in her life, she discovers that sometimes love is found in the strangest of places.

Takes place in the years after the epilogue of Visionary. Special thanks to _Medicshy for his editing and feedback on each chapter!

You are a quiet and introverted musician. You dislike showing off your talent (for music or magic) but the opportunity of a lifetime arises, and going against your character, you accept. But when a certain grey mare enters the picture, you realize that you've gotten into more than you bargained for.

Luna decides to write a letter to her teacher about what she has learned.

15/2/13 - I'm afraid this story has been cancelled, because I only ever intended it to be a chapter long, anyway. I have taken the second chapter down. Sorry!

A day in the life, and a glimpse into the mind, of Ponyville's favorite mail carrier and single mom. But if she had the choice of any one day for everyone to read about, it probably wouldn't be this one...
