Rainbow Dash is nothing if not an enthusiastic coach and teacher, but her winning smile isn't the reason Twilight asked her for flying lessons.

Okay... maybe it is... but only a little bit.

Still, looking isn't touching. It's not like Applejack could get mad if all Twilight wants is to spend a little time with her marefriend, could she?

Button's life so far can be summed up as 'Eat. Sleep. Game.' This begins to change when the new school year starts.

My name is Button Mash and I like video games. I have this bad habit of playing before doing "important" stuff like homework and sleeping. One time I even took it so far as to not sleep at all the night before school started. Can you really blame me though? I was so excited I couldn't sleep.

This story tells of how the owners of Sugarcube Corner came to be. This is the story of how Cupcake and Carrot Cake met. Won second place in the Youngverse February Contest!

Nopony knew Scootaloo was an orphan. Scootaloo didn't know who her parents were. After discovering her secret, Twilight casts a spell that can show the young filly her parents. The result will change both their lives forever.

At what should have been a routine doctor's visit, Applejack learns that she can never bear foals of her own. After an emotional breakdown, her friends do their best to calm her.

However, as the discussion develops, nopony is prepared for Twilight's revelation: the grand event which brought them together has left a hidden scar within each of them.

Tempers flare, relationships are strained, and the strength of their friendship is tested as each must come to terms with her newfound sterility.

Being the mayor of Ponyville is not easy, not when you have the Elements of Harmony and the Cuite Mark Crusaders always causing trouble. Mayor Mare has a solution however, a Bachelor auction and Big Mac is the star of her little show. Follow Mac as he goes through his own personal hell, while the other stallions seem to be enjoying themselves!

Stallions on the Block: Big Mac, Soarin, Braeburn, Bulk Biceps, Prince Blueblood, Flash Sentry, Caramel, Thunderlane, Dr. Whooves/Time Turner, and Spike! Also two new ponies that you might be able to recognize.

Update: Since all of you have been debating the age, Jake and I have decided that the ages are as followed. Main Six are in their early twenties. CMC/Spike pre-teens 10-12. Mac mid twenties.

Thank you as always to jszellmer for the edits.

Thank you to KarmaDash for the idea bouncing along with Shrapmo as well.

Enjoy!

Twilight Sparkle became an alicorn by creating new magic.

Now, Twilight Sparkle has created new magic to turn other ponies into alicorns.

But only for one day.

What would your favorite little ponies do if they could be princesses for a day?

Let's find out...

What starts as a simple wager before Hearts and Hooves day turns into something much greater than Rainbow Dash ever expected. But everypony has a past, and that past can come back to haunt you at the worst times.

This story is dedicated to anyone who had their heart broken...and found the strength to move on anyway.

Lyra Heartstrings is a up-and-coming musician living in the quiet town of Ponyville. Her marefriend Bon Bon owns and operates Canter Candies, the town's specialty sweets shop. They've been together for years, and everypony around knows what a happy couple they are. But any relationship has its ups and downs, and it's hard to ignore every awkward moment.

Like when Lyra's ex arrives in town.
Because she thinks Lyra still has a thing for her.
Because someone's been impersonating her for the past few years.

...Bon Bon might be in trouble here.

Even more difficult to deal with is her developing feelings for one of the Wonderbolts...
