When Macintosh was a teenager, him and Applejack both tried to take charge of the farm once their parents had left it to them.

Macintosh succeeded, and now Applejack lives a more carefree life whilst Macintosh shoulders the stress of the harvest, the bills, and keeping his family together alone.

It's not easy.

Twilight is being pestered by time-traveling clones of herself, all of whom are entirely too interested in her. It's up to Rarity to figure this out. Or try, anyways. If only Big Mac would be a bit more cooperative...

A romantic comedy. Think two parts romance to one part comedy to one part drama. Updates every Friday.

Author's notes:
Set sometime between Season 3 and Season 4. (Continuity is not my strong suit.)

Thanks to Sharp Spark and many others for their help with this.

This is a MLP and Bioshock cross over story.

Big Mac is a Big Brother, and he is tasked with guarding his Little Sister, Apple Bloom, as she goes around to collect Spark. They wander through the ruined underwater city of Canterlot, and the whole place is a bitter shell of what it once was. Things are getting really dangerous, but still.... Big Mac has one job... to keep Apple Bloom safe.

I was known as Frank DeFontaine. I was going to a Halloween party. I was a pretty intelligent kid, starting my first college term, and decided a little dress-up couldn't hurt.
My buddy Richard got involved, though. And like everything, he took it a bit too far. This time, I didn't say no, though. I really should have.
Next thing I know, we're going all-out on making my Dullahan costume. Because he's my favorite optional boss, and all.
Really shoulda known something was up when that guy behind the counter just so happened to have a sword that fit our specifications perfectly.
Next thing I know, I'm in Equestria. And I'm missing a head.
Sakes, I could use a drink. And a neck.

I'd like to leave it at "Holy mother of-!" but that doesn't capture what I'm feeling!

Or is it the hiding place for something much more sinister?

Luna had spent a long, lonely millennium on the moon. Now back on Equestria, she is appalled to find out that Celestia has disbanded the royal harem. To reestablish this venerated tradition, Luna must choose a head concubine. However, her first choice might need a bit more convincing than she would have first thought.

What may seem like an extraordinarily crazy day to any other pony is an extraordinarily ordinary day to Big Macintosh. This, like all other days, is the day he deals with his daily suitors.

Who is Big Macintosh?
That's always been a bit of a mystery.
Aside from 'the big, red, quiet stallion at Sweet Apple Acres', not many ponies actually know.
Rainbow Dash is no exception.
Sure, she's seen him around a bit, but their relationship doesn't span much further than 'the brother of Applejack'.
One night, she talks to him.

This story is primarilly Slice of life, but does suggest romance and shipping.
So the romance tag is more for 'light romantic themes'.

This is a fiction written for the MacinDash Community contest by KarmaDash, following prompt B.

Cover art credit: This fantastic piece of art is all thanks to the colab of darkflame75 and earthsong9405. Kudos to you both.

This may or may not have been written for Jake the Army Guy.
