When one's genetic template is overwritten, there tend to be... side effects. Most of the side effects come into play immediately.

Rarity and Pinkie like each other. Being together should be enough to make them happy, right?

Non-canon prequel to The Enchanted Library

As a filly, Rarity's favorite bedtime story was about three princesses trapped throughout Equestria by a wicked spirit of chaos. How she dreamed of finding them all when she was older, especially the princess trapped in a library under a tree. She knew, however, that fairy tales weren't real.

Only when she grew up would she find out how very wrong she was.

Based on an AU a friend came up with in which Rarity stumbles across an enchanted library where Twilight is its spiritual guardian, and both form an unlikely friendship as she helps Twilight be restored to normal.

What initially started as a challenge to complete fifty Rarilight one-line stories has become a general project of writing as much rarilight stories of varying lengths as possible, from two line stories to stories that just don't reach that minimum 1000 word limit to be posted as a stand-alone.

Stories range from all the available categories, from funny to sad to romance to etc…

Enjoy!

If Twilight had learned something from her relationship with Rarity, it was that even if she was hopelessly in love with the other unicorn, she wanted Rarity to fulfill her dreams -- even if it meant sacrificing their own relationship and breaking both their hearts.
