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]

We are all connected to our roots...

You are the Royal Gardner at Canterlot Castle. The position has been passed down from stallion to colt for generations in your family.

The roses are your pride, because they are what she loves most, and there is one bush in particular that captivates you. When it thrives, she does.

And, try as you might... you cannot help but having fallen in love with her.

Dirt in your hooves and sweat on your muzzle, why would a Princess of Equestria look twice your way?

But hope... hope grows like a weed.

You're the new kid in Canterlot High. After accidentally falling asleep in the janitors closet (you were in there because of a dare given to you by a cyan colored girl with rainbow colored hair), youre stuck inside the school for the night, with no way of getting out until morning.

You manage to survive the night, but only just. This earns you major popularity points, even a few surprises, and thats when you notice a girl with red hair (containing a yellow highlights making her hair look kinda like bacon) has got a thing for you.

How does this go? Only time will tell...

Prince Blueblood thought the Grand Galloping Gala was over. He thought he could just go to sleep and put it behind him. He never expected to be reliving the same disaster of a day, over and over... and over.

Thanks to all the people who wrote the page and all the people who gave me a little wakeup call and comment to become aware of that fact! You can't see it, but you guys put a real smile on my face tonight.

Also, recently, extra thanks to RD Dash for giving TBNE a thorough editing. I've updated the fic accordingly (7.11.12)

When it comes to light that Rainbow Dash didn't properly pass her citizenship test to come to Ponyville, Pinkie Pie comes up with a crazy idea to keep her from being deported: get married! When Rainbow can't find a pony to go along with the idea, Fluttershy volunteers to help her friend. However, as the two start living their lives as wife and wife until Rainbow's citizenship is approved, they begin to realize that it's not just an act anymore.

Main Course is a successful chef and restaurant owner. Or he was, anyway, until a fire tore up his life's work and left him adrift. When he visits his sister in the rural backwater town of Ponyville, he discovers an abandoned building that's perfect for a quick fix-up so he can flip it for a profit. But the building comes with an unforeseen tenant, and when he lets her stick around he discovers that maybe, just maybe, there's something out there more important than wealth and fame.

With her head swirling with thoughts and emotions, Sunset decided to write them all down to get them out and help organize them. She just should have paid attention to which book she was using...

This story is a sequel to Cold Days and Warm Hearts

The winter passes into spring, bringing with it many changes, both for good and for ill. Dawn Lightwing must contend with the pending disaster as a powerful adversary approaches with designs to end his life. Rainbow Dash finally leaves to join the Wonderbolts, but finds her dreams jeopardized by somepony from the past. Meanwhile, Twilight Sparkle and those close to her are drawn further into the machinations of the Noble Court.

Oh...and somepony is planning to destroy the world...probably...maybe...let me get back to you on that...

Celestia receives a letter from Twilight, the first in a long time.

A letter about the Cutie Mark Crusaders and how Twilight has changed since her arrival in Ponyville.

It makes a seemingly solitary Celestia think...
