Applejack and Rainbow Dash are preparing to get married. Amidst the hustle and bustle and busy activity surrounding such a joyous occasion, Violet Tempest, Rainbow Dash's younger sister, arrives in Ponyville, in order to start out on her journey to find a direction for her life, something that will bring her the same joy and happiness she sees in the love between her sister and her soon to be sister-in-law.

* This is Book 4 in the AppleDash series written by The Lotus Tea Dragon. It is recommended that you read "Of Clouds, Seeds, and Apple Trees" (Book 1), "Saddlebags, Sun, and On the Run" (Book 2), and "Hearth's Warming Heart (Book 3) before reading this volume. It is not, however, necessary.

This is a sequel to: Saddlebags, Sun, and On The Run (Book 2)

There is a later sequel to this story: The Fruits Of Our Labors (Book 4)

Not quite a mare, but unhappy being a colt. It's a hard position for a young pony to be in. Would be easier if judgement weren't in every look, hate in every scowl. For Glitter Shell, even her friends and family aren't giving her the support she needs. So, she goes to find some in her personal hero.

Based on the blog Ask Glitter Shell. Give it a chance; I doubt you'll regret it.

Featured on Equestria Daily on August 12th, 2013; thank all of you for the support! Though please remember to support trans people in real life. This story is a very tame snapshot of what they have to go through for most of their lives.

(First story in my series 'The Elements of Harmony') When Rainbow Dash gets a personal letter from Spitfire saying she's been recruited as a cadet, she's happier than Pinkie Pie hyped up on sugar. But when her number one fan ends up in critical condition at Ponyville Central Hospital can Dashie finally follow her dreams, or will she lose it forever and live up to her title?

The sun is big and beautiful and bright. It warms you up, and it makes you smile. But the sun can also exhaust you. And if you stare directly into the sun, if you get all caught up in its beauty and forget to look away, it can blind you.

Pinkie Pie is Fluttershy’s sun.

What was seemingly just a day to play, turned out into something so much more. An ordinary day turns extraordinary, when Applejack learns of her true love for her rainbow maned friend. Both realize this is what they want, and they prove it. A normal night in the barn becomes much more than anypony could have ever thought. Does this happen all by chance? Or does somepony influence it?

Rainbow Dash’s past wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows, but she learned from it. She vowed not to make the same mistakes her parents did. Now, with a little orange filly thrown into her life, it’s time for the Element of Loyalty to put those vows to the test. It’s time to keep the promise she made to herself all those years ago.

Pinkie Pie, a rambunctious, loud, party animal.
Fluttershy, a quiet, peace-loving animal lover.

Two polar-opposites. Two best friends. Two lovers.

Sometimes, the words we hear hurt more than the stones and sticks that break our bones.

A collaboration with Midnight Dancer and myself. Mainly Midnight Dancer. Go love her. Give her your loves. All of them.

Inspired by this beautiful thing.

Rainbow Dash has always been Applejack's best friend, but when something unexpected happens, and they thought about themselves in a different way, will everything be the same again? Would they thought the same thing? Would their friends accept their decission?

On the other side, Applebloom is having troubles to tell a fellow crusader her feelings, so seeks the advice of her sister.
Scootaloo was insecure about something, and she needs Dash help to get through, will everything go as expected?

A/N: This is slightly improved. If you have read it you might want to read it again.

Applebloom has grown up and she is almost a mare now. However, she is depressed for many reasons and some mistakes she made. Now she is faced with a decision. Will anypony be able to stop her?
