While being bullied, Pipsqueak is pushed into a corner, unable to escape. In a desperate attempt to retaliate, he discovers his one true talent. What do you do when your greatest ability is to make others ponies cry?

"Would you tell anypony if you knew the world was going to end, Twilight Sparkle?"

Princess Celestia tires of constantly being surrounded by decorum, deference, and formality, and decides to take a day off from being Princess. But visiting Ponyville incognito is harder than she expects. Will she be able to fit in and make friends without blowing her cover?

A young filly should not be put up to this. A filly shouldn't have to face such a disaster head on. A filly shouldn't be the only one to go up against a Manticore alone. Why me, then? Why was I chosen to fight this thing? Why was I the only one willing to put my life on the line to protect what was important to me?

Why couldn't I have been stronger? Why couldn't I have been faster? Why couldn't I...

Rarity and Applejack share a secret history: as fillies, they were the best of friends, until one terrible day soured their relationship for years to come. Forced back together by recent events and mutual friendships, they nevertheless cannot ignore the painful memories of all that went wrong. The past cannot be changed, but when Rarity and Applejack must work together to save their sisters from terrible danger, it just may be the case that a friendship once broken can be reforged in fire, and emerge from the flames stronger than ever before.

This story is a birthday gift from me and the illustrator, Harwick, to a very dear friend with a singular affection for Rarity and Applejack.

A fantastic air show by Rainbow Dash is spoiled by a violent confrontation with a flock of ducks, resulting in Rainbow breaking a wing. Fluttershy is the first pony to find the wounded pegasus, who makes a request that Fluttershy is not comfortable about fulfilling.

Luna struggles with the edges of sanity and feelings of depression after her time of lunar isolation.

Twilight Sparkles learns a little too much about Fluttershy's personal life. Fluttershy can't stand the embarrassment and becomes frozen in fear. The only way to snap her out of it is for her friends to do some unmentionable things.

Instead of banishing Nightmare Moon, Celestia successfully separates Luna and the nightmare, and both then seal it in the moon, but the stain of both acts are too much for the Princesses and both perish, but not before giving the prophecy of their return. 1000 years later is a changed Equestria, a splintered government, no advanced school of magic, difficult weather patterns, and a looming threat from the Moon. Can the reborn Princesses be found in time? Is friendship still the best hope for a happy tomorrow? The more things change...

Twilight's spell to return Dashie and her friends back to Equestria failed! Now Rarity is lost and alone in the human world. She worries about her friends, not knowing if they made it back to Equestria or not. But first she must fend for herself in the human world, lucky for her she finds a human friend to protect her. the story takes place from rarity's human friend's perspective. Rarity makes a huge impact on the life of her human friend, but will she make it back to Equestria?

You could say this story takes place in the same "Universe" as "My Little Dashie."
The ponies seemingly teleported back to Equestria at the end of My Little Dashie, but what if the spell actually failed, and the ponies were merely sent elsewhere in the human world?

Hoping to make a story like this for each of the mane six
