There are many axioms in Equestria. "Go with the grain." "Count your blessings." "Strive to be happy with what you have."

And, though left unsaid, the most important one of all: "Know your place."

Although Flash Sentry loves Twilight, she can never know of his love. She can never return the feelings. It wouldn't be proper. After all, social order is more important than fulfilling one's own wishes.

Alternate Universe tag is due to the existence of a caste system in this story. Please keep that in mind as you read.

Rated Teen for mild violence and thematic elements.

It's been a while since Fluttershy and Discord have met up for one of their usual tea party, cucumber sandwich get-togethers. Determined to be a better friend than ever before, Fluttershy pulls out all the stops - but after an accidental reminder of Discord's betrayal, the meeting takes an unexpected turn.

Short story written for the fluttercord prompt tag

Weeks have past since Tirek had been defeated. Life in Ponyville is back to normality, and Discord couldn't be happier, especially given the fact that all of his friends had forgiven his betrayal.

However, lately he's noticed that Fluttershy doesn't act like herself. She's constantly tired, a bit moody, and overall just not-Fluttershy. She claims to be fine, but Discord is done hearing that excuse.

And he will find out what's wrong. He has to...

.:Couple Portrayed:.
DiscordXFluttershy ( DiscoShy / FlutterCord )

Discord has been away for a couple of months due to some royal duties from Celestia. Cause of this he hasn't seen Fluttershy for quite a while. Now that he has some free time might as well catch up.

When Applejack is left alone to run the farm, she gets some unexpected help from Spike. As the two spend time together, Spike starts to see Applejack in a new way he'd never thought was possible. What are these feelings, and what will become of the two friends?

This was credited on DeviantART as the first AppleSpike (Applejack X Spike) fic. I don't know how many other AppleSpike fics are here, so maybe somepony can help me out.

I don't own these characters; they are the property of Hasbro and Lauren Faust. Story by me.

FUN FACT: The cover art image here was inspired by my fic. The artist drew this AFTER he read this fic on DeviantART.

The odds of ramming face-first into the same pony twice are high enough, but by the third time you start to question if the universe is doing this on purpose.
Twilight wrestles with how do deal with her rapidly developing crush while said crush helps her find her way around the palace of the Crystal Empire. Feelings are hard, especially when you have zero prior experience with this particular sort.

This is a Flashlight fic, but it was written less as a romance and more as a character study on how Twilight behaves when she's got a crush. Cover art is mine.

Flash would readily admit that he’d been looking forward to his assignment in the Crystal Empire much more before the revelation that he’d be directly involved with keeping his boss’s wife safe- it left no room for error if you wanted to keep your job. However, when Cadance stumbles upon him and decides he's going to be her new friend, he's wholly unprepared for the sneaky princess's matchmaking mischief.

Written for the 2015 Everfree Northwest Writing Competition originally, but I fell asleep the night submissions were due and it didn't get approved until after, so I didn't get it sent in... Ah well, no way it would've won anyway.

What is life? Discord wants to know. In attempt to find out the answer, he goes to Fluttershy's. But when Fluttershy asks him "What is love?" Discord has a lot put on his mind... until he receives a gift from Fluttershy, leaving him shocked, but more open-minded.
