How would Twilight Sparkle cope without her horn? What would Rarity do if her horn fell off? What if Fluttershy's wings fell off? Or Rainbow Dash's? What if Applejack's... legs fell off? All this and more in...

THE MANE CAST-OFFS!

While doing a little early Spring Cleaning (or possibly some very belated Spring Cleaning from last year), Octavia unearths part of Vinyl Scratch's comic book collection. But when she amuses herself during a break by reading one of the books, will she realize that some things are better left undisturbed? Will what she finds within reveal some of the puckish DJ's darkest secrets and tear to pieces the two musicians' nascent love?

Well, no. Not quite. Not at all, in fact... But it will give Octavia a pretty weird dream.

Picture by the awesome Skaleal. Gallery is work safe as far as I know, but it is on Furaffinity so your mileage may vary.

Author's Note: I came up with this silly idea when I saw that surge of "Octavia as small pony-octopus" pictures in November 2011. I hope you guys find the idea as amusing as I do. Oh, and I didn't tag this as a crossover or alternate universe because one, it's a dream and two, I would say it's more of a fusion...

Spike has finally saved up his allowance, and on a beautiful winter's day he buys his first material possession, a sled!

When a technical difficulty causes him to doubt his purchase Twilight quietly uses her magic to solve the problem. But what awaits the dragon whelp as her magic turns an average sled into the Super Amazing Rocket Sled of Awesome?

Whilst enjoying the company of Twilight Sparkle and her friends in the doughnut shop immediately following the events of The Best Night Ever a disappointed Princess Celestia send a letter off to Prince Blueblood explaining the implications of his failure of the "Rarity Test", among other things...

There comes a time in every growing dragon's life when he has to go visit the doctors. Twilight just needs to show him who's boss... hijinks, as they say, ensue.

Where DO foals come from? The Cutie Mark Crusaders don't know, but they intend to find out!

"It's called 'Shh'," said Fluttershy. "It's a game about who can be quiet the longest. Sound fun? I'm the world champion."

Fluttershy is not a pony who makes things up. She really is the world champion of "Shh," or The Quiet Game. And now it's time for her to defend her crown, with Twilight Sparkle and Rarity along for the ride.

"Oh," sings Pinkie Pie, "Today's a day of laughs, a day of jokes...a day for pranking lots of folks!"

Yet an plea from Applejack keeps Pinkie from helping Rainbow Dash with their planned prank. As a conspiracy is revealed Pinkie Pie's friends try their best to put one over on the greatest prankster in Equestria...but will Dash spoil it?

When Twilight Sparkle needs to see the dentist, some extra precautions are needed. The unicorn is not so very fond of doctors, so Spike has to resort to extreme measures, with some help from his friends.
