With Twilight out of town, Spike is feeling lonely. Feeling sorry for him, the Cutie Mark Crusaders invite him to their clubhouse for a sleepover. But soon, things start to go bump in the night...

Spike does not like hugs. And he definitely does not like sleeping next to Twilight. At all.

A story of compromising and growing up.

Written for Everfree Northwest Scribblefest 2017

Twilight and Spike are up late once again. Starlight, however, isn't having it tonight.

Set up after Season 8, Episode 11, Molt Down.
Spike has wings, you know?

Scootaloo exercises on the flying training fields like every week.
But this time, this time something different happens.
What would you do, if one of your friends had achieved what you desired most?
Changing, growing into something you couldn't reach.
What did you think?
How would you react?
That's the story of:
Flying Grounds.

A story about a dragon and his family. Some slice of life, tiny bit of drama, and hopefully some daaww moments. Spike, despite all odds has not only a marefriend, but a foal, and not just one...He has three. Of both. Join Spike, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Applebloom and their foals in their day to day lives.

Rated Teen for safety's sake, things get a little 'heated'

The cover image took me longer to put together than you might think, crafted from pics belonging to: Strangerdragos, Sharpy, lopoddity, and unoriginal
(According to derpibooru tags on the used pics)

Sweetie Belle - Strangerdragos - 1511618

Applebloom + OC - Sharpy - 15104

Spike, Scoot, Jasper - lopoddity - 934080

Allegro - unoriginal - 462104

I know the little dracony belonging to lopoddity is named Jasper, but this story isn't involved with those characters, just using the template of those characters, so I wanted a different name. I also changed Allegro to Crystal Melody, and Zephyr for the dracony with AB based off a Spikebloom story I read ages ago - Link

Spike, Snips and Snails are hanging out with the CMC's on the farm. As Spike leaves to go home he takes a shortcut through the back 40 of Sweet Apple Acres he finds Scootaloo alone in the CMC tree house feeling miserable. The story focuses on a tale of two different types of orphan and how they find solace in each other.

That's right it's Scoots x Spike. If people complain that it's not their version of fanon or canon, then let's say it takes place on Equestria-789 in the multiverse.

The fics's pic will definitely change as make my own picture for the story.

Oh and special thanks goes to my good friend WinterTwister for helping me write this fic.

When an accident reveals a disturbing truth, Scootaloo gets the news that she will never fly. Her newly found mentor and sister fill-in, Rainbow Dash, must confront a reality where both the hero and a dreamer are broken.

Scootaloo still doesn't have her cutie mark. She still hasn't found what makes her special. And she's slowly getting left behind. What will happen when her friends move on? When her idol can't help her? When her parents give up? What happens when life becomes too much for one filly to handle?

Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo weren't born sisters, they became sisters by choice. In an attempt to help Apple Bloom, Scootaloo accidentally puts the bond of that sisterhood to the test.

Now the two pegasi will learn just how far they are willing to go for each other, and just how strong their bond as sisters of loyalty really is.

Close to a year after their wedding, Fluttershy talks to her wife Rainbow Dash about the idea of adopting a foal. Rainbow Dash is unsure about the idea but starts to think it over, and as she does comes to find there's a pony close to both of them that needs them. What will happen?
