Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash have a talk.

----------------------

Dedicated to my older brother.
Part of a 30 min. challenge, I'll probably go through and clean it up a bit.

After the events of "Hurricane Fluttershy", Fluttershy goes to visit Rainbow Dash by bringing her a basket of goodies. The two friends then get to talking, especially with Rainbow Dash managing to express herself in how much Fluttershy's friendship and support means to her. In words, something she never has an easy time doing, but manages to do okay in.

FlutterDash hints, but can still be interpreted as friendship.

Maud did not love Rainbow Dash.

Maud did not understand love.

Maud understood war. Maud understood battle. Maud understood loss.

Those are the things Maud understood.

[Maud/RD - Season 5 finale AU]

It has been weeks since the defeat of the Dazzlings, and Sunset Shimmer's friendships have only gotten stronger. Whilst finally relaxing in the times of peace, Sunset discovers an old enemy: Sonata Dusk. Strangely alone and apparently homeless, Sonata's luck seems to be at its all time low.
Seeing a little of herself in the former siren, Sunset embarks on a mission to help Sonata find friendship.

Sweetie Belle leaves school early to let her sister know a few important things.

But she'll have to do it quick, because she can't stay for long.

I knew this routine. Just like last week and several times before. Poor Sweetie Belle was being picked on by her classmates. They tease her for not having a cutie mark; they tease her for... well, being Sweetie Belle. Maybe they don’t like the fact that she’s comfortable being herself? Foals can be so cruel sometimes. Poor dear, can't they just leave her alone? She’s such a sweetheart after all.
