Rainbow Dash is accepted into the Wonderbolts, and everypony congratulates her on her accomplishment. But with a six-month training camp ahead of the pegasus, a certain unicorn realizes that her time to make a move is running out- and running out quick.

Every week or so, Rarity gathers all of her friends for a little get-together at her boutique. Or at a cafe. Or in Sugarcube Corner. Anywhere that serves tea or tea can be brought in.

And every time, as soon as their conversation steers towards that most intimate of topics, Rainbow Dash falls silent.

Applejack stumbles upon Rarity late one night inside Twilight Sparkle's castle.

Neiiiiiigh.

After a day full of excitement, and a sleepover at Rainbow's, Scootaloo is brought above Canterlot to witness the princesses lower the moon and raise the sun. As Rainbow shares how she first came across the perfect vantage point, Scootaloo is yet again reminded of what she lacks. Her feelings, bottled-up throughout the years of frustration and envy, finally explode in a nervous breakdown.

It's up to Rainbow to remind the filly just how strong and awesome she really is.

It's taken so long and so much. Weeks worth of stretches. Months worth of flapping hopelessly. Days spent in frightening, pale offices with equally-as-frightening and pale physical therapists. Hours upon hours of wing-ups. And all of it for this moment. Finally, Scootaloo can do it.

She can follow her up there.

Pinkie has a very important request for Rainbow Dash.

Inspired by this picture here and happened thanks to Reddit because I saw someone request it and a nice fellow named ocalhoun offered to do it (and did do it! Check out ocalhoun's story here!), but I wanted to try my hand at it too!

Applejack has been asked by a special little dragon to help conquer his fears and ask the mare of his dreams on a date.

Will she succeed in helping a friend in need or will she find herself seeing the young drake as more than a friend?

Rarity is the consummate Lady: she never goes back on her word, and she never complains to a customer. But this newest order has just been different and for the first time in a long, long time Rarity finds herself truly with empty hooves, with no creative energies to summon.

Some mild Raridash. Not really shipping, but sort of? Anyhow, I hope you enjoy! It was nice to write something after being sort of stuck myself.
