Twilight tries to cook a romantic meal for her and Applejack.

Spoiler alert: it doesn't go so well.

This story is a sequel to The Masquerade

After a long day, Twilight is ready for a quiet night keeping watch over the Princess. Or, it would have been a quiet night had the Princess not decided her bodyguard's sleeping arrangements were 'simply unacceptable'.

Part of the Bodyguard!AU Series, based on Earthsong9405's AU where Twilight is the bodyguard to a "Princess/Queen Rarity". Prior knowledge of the AU is not necessary to read the story.

Rainbow Dash isn't the mare you'd think would allow anypony to use her for dress-up. I mean, she's the kind of mare that would much rather spend her time in the skies instead of standing still just so somepony can stick needles into her side.

Except that pony happens to be Rarity.

Rainbow Dash has no idea what Rarity's problem is. Dash isn't messy. She just isn't super-neat like her prissy unicorn girlfriend. Rarity's the one with the problem here, clearly.

Twilight has wanted to ask Rainbow Dash out for months, but has yet to muster up the courage to do so. Will Pinkie's New Year's party be the perfect chance to confess her feelings?

Fluttershy has a philosophical - definitely philosophical - question for her best friend, Twilight Sparkle. She's certainly not testing any waters. None at all.

When you throw me, "Would It Matter...?", and "X Masturbates" in a blender, the result is... cute, apparently?
Prompted by a random conversation and pre-read by Samey90 and Cormac McCloppy.

Fluttershy's had a secret crush on Pinkie Pie for the longest time now. So she's tried her best to avoid being alone with the party pony for too long. Things begin to get awkward when Pinkie invites Fluttershy to a party, but no one else shows up.

Pinkie and Fluttershy in an awkward situation during Hearth's Warming Eve.

A terribly sticky one.

The stress of consecutive days of constant working has tired the usually flamboyant mare. Luckily, Twilight is more than willing to comfort her marefriend, and she asks if there is anything she can do to steady Pinkie's pain. In response, Pinkie gives the alicorn an unusual request that Twilight is unsure she has the skills to complete this wish.
