Only in death do we value what we love most.

Rarity would gladly tell you so considering she did die and all.

Was going to be a cute entry for the Tumblr RariTwi event going on, but then I started thinking about death and idk what happened after that

Rarity had always known she would have an arranged marriage—such was the life of a princess, after all. She just hadn't expected her wife to be a sphinx or that she would actively avoid her, and not just because she loves books.

Commission for the lovely Earthsong9405 set in one of her AUs where Rarity is in an arranged marriage to Princess Twilight Sparkle, a sphinx Princess from Saddle Arabia.

This story is a sequel to Our Illusion

Princess Rarity thought her life to be perfect. Leisurely days in the castle, friends all around, and the most lovingly lovely bodyguard she could ever ask for.

However, when tragedy strikes, she and her beloved must face the fact that sooner or later, whether they want to or not, all little princesses must one day become queens.

Part of the Bodyguard!AU Series, based on Earthsong9405's AU where Twilight is the bodyguard to a "Princess/Queen Rarity". Prior knowledge of the AU is HIGHLY recommended. // Cover art byidrawraritwi/lilfunkman.

This story is a prequel to Injuring Eternity.

Life is like a train ride, don't you think, dearest? The tracks have been set, destination picked and the ticket is well in hoof. What a shame that so many, myself included, are so focused on the destination that they fail to realize a universal truth.

Destinations will change, trains will be caught and missed, but there will always be somepony willing to journey with you—so long as you let them.

Thanks to the amazing lilfunkman for the gorgeous cover art.

Now with a russian translation!

Everypony enjoys myths and ponytales, even if they know such things aren't real. Alicorns fighting against a spirit of chaos? An ancient princess trapped in a library under a tree, waiting to be found? Quite enchanting and fantastic tales yes, but nonetheless as fictional as Daring Do and other such stories. At least, that's what Rarity used to think.

She doesn't anymore.

Dedicated to Annuska for being as amazing a writer as she is a friend.

Now a physical book!!!

Based on an old oneshot.

In an effort to encourage reading and writing in Ponyville, Mayor Mare launched a project inviting ponies to write their autobiographies for storage in the Castle's Library. However, despite her thrilling life, Rarity simply didn't have the time to sit down and write her autobiography, no matter how badly Twilight wanted her to do it.

...Then again, she wasn't all that good at not catering to the alicorn's every adorable whim.

Small Raritwi fluffshot. The ridiculously adorable cover art was done by the awesome King-Snail.

Throughout their relationship, Twilight had come to accept that sometimes Rarity got emotional and no power in Equestria could stop her. She just wished the unicorn wouldn't decide to do so when she was busy working on a research paper for Princess Celestia.

A shamelessly sappy fluffy drabble that got very out of hand. Half based on the prompt "[ship] finds a song that’s /their song/, and get emotional over it even if it's a terrible song"

Decorating Golden Oak Library for the holiday season was never Twilight's favourite thing to do, but her friends have kindly offered to lend a hoof. Things would be going much faster, however, if Rarity hadn't found Sunset Shimmer's fake crown buried inside a box of decorations.

A short RariTwi fluff written while taking a breather from working on other stories. Based on a headcanon a friend told me on Skype which I had to make into a fic, because cute headcanons are my one weakness.

If Twilight had learned something from her relationship with Rarity, it was that even if she was hopelessly in love with the other unicorn, she wanted Rarity to fulfill her dreams -- even if it meant sacrificing their own relationship and breaking both their hearts.

Edited version of a one-shot I never intended on uploading, but am posting under insistence encouragement of a couple of friends.

Centuries after most of her friends have all passed away, Twilight decides to make one last trip into the past. No interacting, no greeting deceased friends, no reunion with her beloved marefriend. Just one quick glance at a life long lost.

However, for better or worse, she'll end up getting much, much more than that.

This story has a prequel entitled The Last Train Home.
