Princess Twilight Sparkle has found plenty of time to spend with her friends; Rainbow Dash cannot deny that, yet there is still something bothering her that she can't quite express.
Color. It is such a simple entity to define? Maybe there is more to it than once thought, especially if it were to disappear one day. Twilight and Rainbow come to a crossroads as they look to a bleak, gray-scale world.
Ponyville was a calm, peaceful town. At least when it wasn't being ravaged by gods of chaos or evil queens determined to bring eternal night. Unfortunately, without that life got rather boring, so Twilight decides to go on a little vacation.
Rainbow likes Twilight. Twilight thinks she's straight, and is dating a unicorn named Night Shade. This cannot end well...okay, I lied. Never ignore the Friend Zone. Also, Night Shade was a random name pick, not meant to steal anyone's OC.
Twilight studies every move she makes. But sometimes she can only learn what she wants by expirience, and that's hard to come by with what she wants to know.
Twilight finally perfects the Wing Casting spell, perfecting it down to the most trivial detail. Her friends are more than thrilled to hear and experience the fruits of her labor. All of her friends, except for Rainbow Dash.
Rainbow's attempt at perfection proves flawed, and she has set out to fix this, risking her own life in the process. Aid comes in the form of Twilight Sparkle, both mentally and physically.
When Applejack finds a "certain" Wonderbolt has crash landed in her barn during a blizzard, she will find that this daredevil will be more intertwined in her life than she will ever know.
Rainbow Dash teaches a preteen Scootaloo how to fly, strengthening their bonds, both to each other and the ponies around them. A story about love, family, and growing up.
Following the coronation, Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash are both troubled by regret. In the face of irreversible changes, they search for solace in solitude, but instead find each other in the small hours of the morning.
During a week-long vacation, Applejack is surprised to learn that Twilight and Rainbow's plans are no different than if they had stayed at home. Maybe a little bet can fix that.
It's easy to lose sight of how far you've come when all you can see are the mistakes of the past. What happens when Twilight finds herself trapped, knowing that for every thing she's done right, she's done something else wrong?
Looking back, it should have been obvious. All those brief moments they spent together, the close encounters, it was like they were dancing around the subject. And it all began with something so very small.
Twilight has always loved mysteries. Almost nothing could compare to the joy she feels when finding an answer to a question no pony knew. But now she's solved a mystery with an answer she doesn't want, and it's one she can never forget
Left only with a promise to keep in touch, Rainbow Dash struggles to convey her feelings, and to figure out what the words were that she couldn't say on that one last misty night at the train station before Twilight left.
