Every story has its beginning, every song has a start, and every love has its first date. For Twilight and Dash, this is theirs.

Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle have been together for as long as anypony can remember, and they wouldn't have it any other way.

Home alone for the first time is a ritual of passage for the young. It's all fun and games for one filly ... until night falls. Are those creaks the sounds of the house settling in or the stalking steps of something searching sustenance?

Super short stories inspired by pretty much anything. There will be fluff, sadness, tragedy, romance, and much more.

Welcome to Twilight Sparkle's mind. A place full of thoughts and feelings. A place where she takes refuge during hard times. A place of tranquility that keeps her at peace. A place of concepts and ideas. A place where she stores memories of her friendships.

Author's Note: We will not be uploading the chapters in order. They shall be published whenever We are inspired.

When Rainbow Dash wakes up with morning sickness a few weeks after a big party she is forced to make a hard decision of life or death. Darkfic.

I've read a bunch of shipfics that are all happy resolutions after the confession so I wanted to try an alternative. So here is a slightly darker TwiDash fic because I am a terrible person who must make ponies suffer. Oh God Why?!
