Rarity is a woman of many talents, including the absolute control over her vocabulary. At least, that's what she thought, until Rainbow Dash made a bet with her. A bet that Rarity can't go without saying the word "darling." Rarity's gonna need a lot of quarters by the time this is over.

My attempt to take one joke from Equestria Girls, and somehow turn it into a fic, in the same vein as Why Do We Hate Each Other? Another quick comedy story I wrote because I was bored.

There's few better ways for Twilight Sparkle to spend a lazy weekend afternoon than propped up against the pillows on her bed, with her girlfriend resting on her body and reading her a story. Sure, she may have left her glasses out of reach, but that hardly matters when all her sensations are focused on Sunset's voice and body anyway.

Of course, Sunset might have an easier time reading if her partner would stop giving her little teases. But where's the fun in that?

A new semester of school is just around the corner, and students are scrambling to be prepared for a new school year. Amethyst Star is one of many students preparing for the new year, but along her trip she comes across a new person that has sparked a rather... warm feeling inside. Perhaps of a sweeter nature?

Set in the Shattered Rainbow Rock universe. Reading any previous stories of said stories are not required.

Aria and Sonata have hinted of feelings towards each other for some time, especially after their reformation, alongside Adagio, as close friends with The Mane 7. Aria has finally worked up the courage to ask Sonata out on a first date, at her apartment in downtown Canterlot. Sonata happily agreed. Aria is filled with nerves and seeks the perfect night for her date, as a chance to make full recompense for her actions towards Sonata during the Battle of The Bands. Will their relationship flourish and blossom? Read on and find out!

FYI this is set in the same universe as Be Mine. My other ongoing Rarijack romance fic. In Chapter 9 (Part 1) of Be Mine, we see the moment, where Aria asked Sonata out on a date.

And don't worry, there will be plenty more of these two, this is just a snippet of what's to come.

Sunset's favorite alley cat has always been distant, only sometimes letting her get close enough to actually pet her. Not wanting an old friend to suffer out in a terrible storm, she's determined to show her a little kindness and a better life.

Sunset happily takes on all her marital responsibilities, even when it means getting up in the middle of the night to have a long, comforting talk with her wife.
No, the other one.

Sunset has done a lot for the humans in this magicless world, and she rightfully deserves a break from all the bullshit. Sadly, some random ancient threat seems to disagree.

It is early summer in Canterlot, and the spring term for Canterlot High is coming to a close. A six week half term, is in inbound for all students, and there are two in particular who wish to spend some quality time together over this small spring break. Rarity and Applejack. Of course, they want to spend some time with their friends of the Main 7, as well as their newly reformed friends (The Dazzlings.) The two of them have strong feelings for one another, and early on into this narrative, we will explore how they confide their feelings and explore their romance together. The two are head over heels for one another, hoping to ask the question of 'Be Mine?'

This is a romance fanfiction focusing on the blossoming of Applejack and Rarity's feelings for one another, and soon their relationship. We will see how their friends cotton on, how they will react to the blossoming relationship between two friends, into two lovers.

Life for Sunset Shimmer took a turn for the worse when Anon-a-Miss single handedly sowed the seeds of distrust amongst her friends and the entire school, but things got worse when the identity of Anon-a-Miss is finally revealed. Unable to forget how those she thought were her friends and family were quick to assume she had relapsed to her old ways of being a bully, Sunset turns her back on them as they once did to her and is prepared to live a life of shutting out friendship entirely. That is until she happens upon a kind stranger who not only could be the friendly ear to listen to her problems, but even teach her things about friendship that even the Princess of Friendship herself could never teach.

This story is a sequel to Can You See What I See?
