Sometimes, ponies get busy. Sometimes, sorry isn't enough. Sometimes, good things start to fall apart and nothing can fix them. Even though she's been dating Fluttershy for a while now, Applejack is lonely. Something needs to change.

My submission to the AppleShy Contest.
Edited, Pre-read, and brainstorm'd by the inestimable Lion.

Twilight's been...thinking about Pinkie Pie recently. She keeps control of it, afraid of what her friends might do if they find out. But when Pinkie suddenly starts trying to understand the recent arrival to Ponyville better, Twilight may be fighting a losing battle...

Raucous content, but not enough to justify a "Sex" tag, I don't think.

Twilight Sparkle is all filled up on weird lately, and that's even before she ends up in an alternate world where Applejack is Rainbow Dash's girlfriend instead of hers. Set during and just after "Equestria Girls."

Nurse Redheart has always wanted to help ponies, and help ponies she has! But when she's assigned to be the "sober companion" for Berry Punch, a mare with whom she has history, things might get a little more complicated than she expected.

Thanks to Flint Sparks for the idea and Auramane for some advice/prereading!

This story is a collection of unrelated short stories written for the Thirty Minute Ponies tumblr.

None of the chapters directly relate to the others, they're all independent stories based on daily prompts. I'm just posting them all here for fun and for critique/comments. Keep in mind that these are all written in half an hour or so, so they're short and a bit first-draft-y, and rather uneven quality-wise.

I will try to add tags to the end of chapter titles denoting the tone of that chapter.

My participation in this is inspired by Esle Ynopemos' six-month long series of these, though I'm not focusing on any particular character like they did.

She waited for Rarity’s face to bloom into softness, the way it always did when Rainbow made some big romantic gesture like this. Rarity’s face stayed impassive. But she smiled. It was a smile that was reserved and slightly tired—barely genuine. The warmth in it was quiet, self-contained.

And that’s when Rainbow’s entire world came crashing down.

She did not need her any longer.

The first story in the What Could Go Wrong? series

Most ponies hate rain. It drives you inside and covers up the sun; what's to like? Fluttershy, however, sees it as an opportunity. Rainstorms give her the chance to withdraw and to think, not burdened by social obligations or pressures. Yet for all it's virtues, rain tend to leave you wet and cold, and if Pinkie can teach Fluttershy anything, it's how to warm up a bit.
