Lately, tons of people on the internet have been referring to Sunset Shimmer as their "waifu". She's caught wind of it, but she's confused. What's a "waifu", and why is everyone saying she's better than other "waifus"?

Rainbow had a question revolving around two of her friends. Specifically, Twilight and Applejack. Join Rainbow, Applejack, Pinkie, Fluttershy, and Rarity one a series of questions about ship names. Rated teen to be sure. This was written as a challenge to myself, an dialogue only story!

Rarity Is Mah Favorite apologizes if she hurts your ships or disrespect them in any way.

The Apple Family decides to stay one more night at the Pie Family’s humble rock farm, and that evening is the coldest it has ever been during their stay. The chilly weather forces Apple Bloom out of her bed, but it turns out that she is not the only one that is up! She spots a pair of ponies sneaking about off to do who knows what and the curious little filly decides to investigate what was happening at such an hour.
(This summary was written by Otonashikun, Thank you!)

This story is based off of the events of MLP Season 5 Episode 20 “Hearthbreakers” and is told from Apple Bloom’s perspective.

This is an “experimental fiction,” a fiction translated from Japanese into English. The original writer, me Sasho-Shirokami (サショー☆シロカミ), and Otonashikun have collaborated to translate it. This is the first challange in MLP-fundom! (Maybe!) As part of our test, we would like to ask readers to read both versions, each done by one of us, of the translated story and send us your thoughts. Otonashikun's (put here!) is an interpreted version, adding elements of English writing and more detail, while mine (put on some other places) is more literal and true to the original story.

Otonashikun's impression here:
Pretty much the same thing. First of all, I am very thankful that you allowed me to collaborate on it. It was difficult translate, but very fun. I was glad you were there to help me with expressions I am not familiar with. I hope people enjoy the story and when I get the chance, I also want to translate more great fictions.

Thank you very much for your support!

The Choosing Stone. Everypony in the Pie family has heard of it. It is a sacred tradition that shows ponies who their soulmate is.

Igneous Rock must now explain to his grown daughters every detail on how it works.

A head-canon story of the Choosing Stone; which was mentioned in S5 EP20: Hearthbreakers

Big Mac hates rocks. A lot. He never used to, and he's not entirely sure why he does now. Besides, what did rocks ever do to him?

Naturally, Marble explodes from shyness.

It's been a few, long months since the Helping Hooves Music Festival and Applejack sits alone at a solitary desk, writing a letter to her childhood friend, Rara.

Feels ensue.

This story is a sequel to In Need of a Break

Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy? Working together at Sugarcube Corner and Fluttershy's new business as a animal care-taker.
Applejack and Rarity? Traveling through all of Equestria together.
What could Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle could do?

Edited by, you guessed it, Krickis. Thanks again, buddy!

Twilight really hurt Moondancer's feelings by not showing up to her party. Even though she had other friends, Moondancer had planned a very special party for her very special friend, Twilight Sparkle. This party was going to be the place where she finally confessed her secret feelings to Twilight.

This is what might have happened if Twilight had made time for her friend.

You know how it goes: boy visits girl, boy and girl have tea, have a good time chatting, and girl refuses to let boy leave—

Wait, what?

After a lovely evening of sipping tea and chatting, former Phantom Pony, Nocturne goes to exit Fluttershy's home for the night. But it's quite the blizzard outside tonight, the worst in decades, and Fluttershy doesn't want Nocturne to freeze to death out there. Of course, they are close friends now, and she does care for him deeply . . . perhaps too deeply.

They say cold weather brings ponies together. Just what does that insinuate? Nocturne is about to find out.
