Scootaloo wakes up in a distantly familiar room from her past. She has been given the chance to change her life forever, but will she be able to overcome her confused emotions long enough to stop fate?

A special thanks goes to my girlfriend and my editor Auramane, who stayed up until like 4 am cause of timezones and crap.

HOLY CRAP ITS IN TWILIGHT'S LIBRARY! *squee*... I mean, um... Yea I totally expected this to happen from the beginning.

Rarity's morning have been boring recently, and she gets just the sort of excitement she needs. With a little help from Spike and Twilight, she manages to save a mouse from her fat yet ferocious cat. Also, Spike is the subject of a thinly veiled innuendo, and Twilight is late for once. Based on true events of the life of Garbo. Just a little writing exercise to get me back into the swing of things.
Everypony may or may not be alicorns by the end of this fic. This story does not protect against STDs. Batteries not included. Davenport is best pony.

Passiflora is the sort of pony most ponies are aware exists but never gets the spotlight. She's a dietetic nurse, somewhere in between medical doctor, dietician, and baker. She makes ponies feel better with food, and she's quite good at it, as any Wonderbolt who's needed her skills will attest to.

So naturally Spitfire is all too happy to accept her invitation when she asks to talk over tea.

Spitfire's seen the signs, though. Something's wrong with Flora, and Spitfire's going to have to use some tact and grace to stand by her friend in need.

Whatever Flora's problem is, Spitfire is sure to provide a solution.

Preferably before Flora lays waste to all the teacakes.

Author's notes: Side story to my old Flight Camp fic, acting as a prequel. There are some spoilers to to the Flight Camp fic, but none significant.

This was written based on advice by Andrew Price, namely to do one finished piece of art per week. At the time of writing, I'm planning to do this for one more week. This fic was mainly intended to work on something I do a lot in my stories, and as such I need to learn how to do right. Consequently, this fic has a lot of the same thing in it, but hopefully done well.

Cover art was made in the span of an hour. Yeah, it's lazy and ridiculous, but it's the first time I'm using this method, so there's bound to be a few hiccups.

"All my life, I've wanted to fly
But I don't have the wings, and I wonder why
I can't break away..."
Most pegasi figure out flying easily enough. Heck, most of them figure out how to do it before they even get their cutie marks.

But not me. I couldn’t do it, no matter how hard I tried. I couldn’t even hover. Not for more than a few seconds, anyway. And not even Rainbow Dash, the greatest flier in Equestria, could seem to help me. We tried everything, and I failed every time. Day after day, I tried – and day after day, I failed, until finally I was ready to just give up. I’d never be able to do it. Nopony would ever be able to help me to fly...

...until one day, somepony did.

Mr. and Mrs. Cake, who are busy starting a second bakery franchise in Hoofington, need someone to watch their twins and make sure the troublesome duo behaves while they are gone. Thankfully, they get a mysterious and magical applicant for the position, known only as Mary Cloppins. Now, Mary Cloppins will watch Pound and Pumpkin Cake, and hope that the two of them aren't too much of a hooffull, even for her magic to handle.

The plot, cover image, and song parodies are inspired by Mary Poppins. Cover image by Paper-pony. This story is part of One-shotober. 100% approved by Twilight's Library!
