Fear of crowds is a common condition to have and Pyridae is one of those ponies to be cursed with it. Some have their ways to cope with their fears. Thankfully, all Pyridae needs are fireflies to do the trick.

One of the positive things about being enlisted in the Solar Guard is all the mares Rainbow Dash could possibly chase after.

A negative? The one she's really after is in the Lunar Guard, and she's pretty… batty.

Rarity is hosting the annual Societé Fabrique soiree. Everything is going splendid thanks to some help from her friends. It's a bit boring, true. The social strictures of hosting tend to make for a rather dull night, but luckily for Rarity, she has Applejack to keep her company.

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy have made plans to spend the day together. Nothing abnormal for two friends. But Fluttershy sees things a bit differently. To her, she finally has an opportunity to open up to her long time crush, Rainbow Dash. Will she be able to work the courage to admit herself to Equestria's most fearless pegasus? Or will her timidness and quite manner leave her true feelings forever her secret? Only time will tell...

Yo, the name's Vinyl Scratch, and all told, I've got it pretty good.

I do what I love, I love what I do, and what I do is make music that gets ponies pumped. I mean, you've probably seen me around. Truth be told I'm kind of everywhere—from Canterlot to Manehatten—doing fashion shows, clubs, weddings, and at least two royal shindigs post-changeling invasion. Funny thing about that though...

Special thanks to Dreams of Ponies, The Masked Ferret, and Skeeter the Lurker for their editing and support.

It's Starlight Glimmer's first Nightmare Night in Ponyville, and she invites Trixie to go to a Haunted House attraction with her. As it turns out, Trixie is very very easily frightened. Almost too easily. Certainly it's not some silly excuse for the sideshow magician to cling to her very best friend... right?

What is more wrong than liking somepony of your own gender?

What happens when your feelings finally run high enough that you can't hide them any longer?

Enter the story of Rainbow Dash as she tries to figure out just what it is that her feeling are.

For years, Rainbow Dash has adored Pinkie from afar. For years, she hasn't been able to muster the courage in order to actually come and approach Pinkie.

Now it's her birthday, and Pinkie has taken it upon herself in order to throw the Pegasus' latest bash.

Is Rainbow's time finally here? Or does Pinkie not love her back?

After a rather fun day, an incident occurs between Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash, bringing them apart. The events over the next two days will dramatically shape their lives and their relationship with one another, but which direction will it all lead?

First uploaded fanfic. I thought shipping was as good a place to start as any.

Note that the "Sex" tag is simply there to comply with the rules, and it is NOT an entirely big part of the story; it's actually quite brief.

Pinkie tries to get Rainbow Dash into the groove. Why is Rainbow not in the mood?

A special thanks to my friend Rootbeer Dew for helping me write this story.

Inspired by I Don't Feel Like Dancin' by Scissor Sisters' in their Ta-Dah album.

After completing yet another marvellous masterpiece of fashion, Rarity faintly feels like she's ready to tell the pony that inspired her new dress exactly how she feels. She has only one problem. Though her feelings for a certainty orange earth pony may be genuine, she has no idea whether her close friend will feel the same way, especially after a certain training event involving unicorns to which Rarity was not invited. In the end however, she may simply have to accept that she's all out of luck.
