Applejack feels like everypony is leaving her behind. She talks through it with Dash over cider.

Written for ROBCakeran53's first Quills and Sofas Speed writing contest.

This story is a sequel to The Irony of Applejack

The secret's finally out. All of Equestria knows about Applejack's true identity, and the identities of her fellow changelings.
But even with all of the new responsibilities being laid upon the young changeling, surely asking for one day of normalcy – a single day of celebration and pageantry amongst her closest friends – couldn't be too much to ask for, right?
Right?

Written because my Muse is a fickle one, she is.
Set between the events of The Irony of Applejack and it's sequel, The Advent of Applejack.

This story is a sequel to Back To The Past

Jack has finally found the peace he has sought for so long.

Equestria, land of Friendship and Harmony, has finally brought his spirit peace and rest. Away from the darkness and tyranny of Aku, Jack has found a new strength and a renewed purpose that he could never have found in his world. The friends he has made gives him reason to smile. His desire to make sure Equestria does not follow a path like his world gives him purpose. And Applejack, his beloved, gives him a reason to live.

But the happiness does not last forever. And soon Jack will discover that it is not Aku that is the greatest foe that he has ever faced, but a foe that will take everything Jack's cares for and loves, despite all he does to combat it.

For this is a foe Jack has already beaten.

“I ain’t just a farmer anymore and you ain’t just a fashion designer anymore. Now we’ve got new titles.” She placed a hoof on her chest. “Element of Honesty...” -- she moved her hoof to Rarity -- “and Element of Generosity. Saviors of Equestria and whatnot.”

When Applejack was a filly, she'd been told a hundred times by her parents that she was special. This... this isn't what she expected.

Applejack is chosen as The Nightmare's new host.

It really isn't that big of a deal. Until it is.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash have been close friends for a long time and, for some reason Rainbow Dash has never been able to understand, it seems as if everyone she knows expects them to get together eventually. To Rainbow Dash's surprise, Applejack abruptly decides that their friends are right and asks her out on a date. To Applejack's surprise, Rainbow Dash immediately turns her down.

Unfortunately for Rainbow Dash, Applejack is nothing if not stubborn, and she declares that she won't give up until Rainbow Dash has agreed to go on a date with her, no matter what it takes.

Winner of the second AppleDash group contest.

Applejack was a bit hesitant and confused when the no good conman, Flim, appeared at her front door, asking for advice. Naturally, she turned away from him, still bitter about everything he has done to her family and friends in the past.

As days go by, however, Applejack comes to terms with Flim. And, she quickly realizes that just like ponies can change, hearts can change, too.

This story is a side story to Chosen Love. Consequently, there are some spoilers for that story.

Sex tag is for a few innuendos.

There is a whole part of Equestrian life that almost never sees the light of day, just as there are those ponies that are asleep during Luna's night. It can be tough for friendship and love to flourish under such circumstances. When the bat pony stallion 'Shadow Guard' finds him self besotted by the honest and hard working Applejack, can he win her heart? Can a relationship of ponies of such different worlds ever work?

This story is a spin off of "The Mission of Buzzbot." So I would suggest reading it first, but it's not vital.

In the future, we'll colonize the solar system, cure cancer, clone the human genome, and build trans-dimensional hoodies that can summon tiny talking horses from an alternate universe.

It's pretty snazzy.

There is no beginning and no ending; only hoodies and the poni poni poni that fill them.

"It's no secret that Applejack and I are really cool friends, but nopony really knows how I feel about her. Her awesome blonde hair, those powerful legs that won't quit, that amazing smile, all wrapped up underneath her trademark cowpony hat.

Urgh! I've had it! I've just gotta tell her how she makes me feel!

I just hope she takes me seriously for once..."
