Marble Pie is a shy, quiet mare that rarely speaks and almost never makes eye contact. Rainbow Dash is known for being outspoken and assertive. When Pinkie's sisters -- including Marble -- come to Ponyville for a visit, Rainbow Dash somehow gets set up on a date with Marble Pie.

Do the two have a rock solid foundation that a relationship can be built on? Or will the entire thing crash and burn?

(despite the art, the story is not anthro. image created by How Do Ponies Work? which gave me the idea for the story.)

Work work work. That's all Sunset cares about. She never complains, but what truly lies inside the young woman's heart? Will a close friend be able to break the walls built around her? Or will she never know what Sunset really feels?

Couldn't have down it without; Shrink Laureate

Appearance on EQD Sep 25

Valentine’s Day is here and Sunset Shimmer couldn’t be more miserable, seeing as she’s the lone member of her group of friends with no significant other to spend the day with. Then a series of mysterious love letters begin appearing around her. Who’s behind this, and is it even a singular answer?

Takes place before Friendship Games.

Entry for Oroboro’s Sunset Shipping contest

After putting on the Element of Magic, Sunset Shimmer was shown just how much of a monster she really is. But that wasn't all the Elements did to her.

Sunset has now been forced to serve penance by answering any question truthfully and by doing anything asked of her, whether she wants to or not.

And she really doesn't want to.

Until all of the hatred in her heart is gone, Sunset is at the whim of her peers, unbeknownst to them of course. Can her new "friends" help her down the road to redemption?

If not, there's always that other Twilight Sparkle she keeps running into.

Sex tag is just to be safe, there will be no sex, just some mentions of it and a possible scene where there may be an attempt at seduction that does not get anywhere.

When Sunset finds another student from from school beaten and hiding in an alley, she does the only thing she can, she takes the girl home with her. Can one wounded soul heal another and save Sunset from the hate deep inside?

One girl a bully with connections to the underworld with a short temper.

Another girl afraid and shy to the point that it can be difficult to get through the day.

Both of them hurt by families, their souls near shattered. Will time together soften one and strengthen another, or will it cause everything to explode when truths are learned?

This is an AU starting before the first EG movie, though it will continue into it with changes. The world will work differently than our world and possibly a little different than the EG world being some relaxations on certain things.

This isn't tied to my other stories in anyway and is a birthday present to a friend of mine, Happy Birthday K!

Arc 2 has split off into 2 different timelines so has 2 different stories.

The Sun and the Shy: Shadows Rising is the story centering around Sunset and Fluttershy's transfer to Crystal Prep Academy.

The Sun and the Shy: Canterlot Blues is the story of Fluttershy and Sunset staying at CHS and goes through the first movie.

My name is Sunset Shimmer, and I wanted to speak to my newest friend, the human version of Princess Twilight Sparkle, about something which I've been keeping a closely guarded secret. Because of what happened at the climax of the Friendship Games, my heart is telling me to reveal what I've kept from everyone I know. Why choose her? Because she and I are really close... in more ways than one.

While I've used the magic journal to speak with Princess Twilight, there is the other journal... the non-magical one which I've been using since as far back as I can remember. You may think that what I wrote in this journal isn't anything serious, but when it contains secrets... personal secrets about my life from past to present...secret feelings about my friends... it becomes a completely different beast altogether.

I know Twilight will be there to help just like how I helped her, but will our friendship... all of my friendships be destroyed upon revealing these secrets to her?

Note: This story takes place after Friendship Games even though all three movies will be present in one form or another. Also, the Equestria Girls comics will be present as well with some having more scope than others. There is also some mild sexual moments between Sunset and Twilight. Edit: Added in the comics to the note.

Edit: Starting from Chapter 8 and onwards, this story now has an editor: icecreammac

Edit2: Replaced the 'human' category with the 'Equestria Girls' category.

Edit3: Second Place in the 2015 National Pony Novel Writing Month.
