Due to an upcoming fashion compeitition happening held in Canterlot, Rarity has spent the better part of the week hunkered down in her boutique. Worried for her friend, Twilight has tasked Rainbow Dash and Applejack to check up on her. Rainbow decides to add her own flare to it, it was the biggest mistake of her life.

A story request by JBlaser

Sex tag because kissing is in the story, also cause intense dress wearing.

Mere days after the Changeling attack on Canterlot, along with the new public knowledge that Changelings even exist, Ponyville police make their first arrest on the basis of suspected changeling status. While Shining Armor and Princess Cadance's burst of magic at their wedding may have briefly exposed many changelings, this has proven to be a magical feat not easily repeated. It quickly becomes apparent that nopony is aware of any easily replicable method of forcibly reverting a Changeling's shapeshifting.

There is thus no way to easily prove Changeling status- or lack thereof. This comes with a few major problems, the most significant of which is difficult to answer. How is it possible to balance the Equestrian court system's legal presumption of innocence with public safety?

Rating information: While there will be no explicit sex scenes, there are going to be some plot points which will mention sex as a topic, which is the reason I'm rating the story as teen. It will be done in a way that relates to the main theme of the story, so it hopefully won't be too prurient. If somebody paused before clicking the story due to the 'sex' tag, it thus shouldn't dissuade them. Similarly, if somebody found the story while searching based on that tag, it's probably not what they were looking for. (Although I would still appreciate their readership if somebody in the second category decided to check it out anyways).

If there's a holiday, then somepony's probably overdecorated for it. The Greening has seen entire homes blend into the local grass, while Lambvent shrouds neighborhoods in wool and Hearth's Warming traditionally welcomes guests into homes through making it impossible to see where the front door is. But if Ponyville's going to get dressed up anyway, then Town Hall might as well have a little contest built around it. The mayor signed off on that.

Which meant there was a period of at least two seconds in which Marigold Mare completely forgot her town hosts the Bearers -- and that she'd just given them a reason to compete against each other.

Shall we count down to the inevitable one home visit at a time? In six, five, four, three...

Rated C for they don't celebrate Christmas Crackfic.

Hearth's Warming songs. Aren't they just the most annoying things ever? Sure, some of them may sound good the first time around, but see if anything still holds up after the hundredth repetition. The gramophone stand sure won't, especially once somepony lands the well-earned kick. And yes, this latest specimen is a fairly new composition, but Twilight already hates Hearth's Warming Wham! on a level usually reserved for falsified scientific proofs. Since nopony is going to be playing anything except holiday songs for the next moon...

And yet Twilight is convinced that it's possible for her to reach the holiday itself without ever having to hear that 'song' again. She's willing to make a wager on that.

She's wrong, of course. That's the fun part.

Mayor Mare has been living in Ponyville for quite some time. Not as long as she'd have you believe, mind you, but a long time all the same. During this period, she had dreams and aspirations, and as far as she's concerned, she accomplished each and every one. But what do you do when you've already achieved all of your goals?

Well, she was pretty lonely. And although she obtained the exact career path she wanted for many moons, she had much less luck with the stallions in her life.

She never would have imagined that the solution would come in the form of a human, or what that solution would eventually lead to. The result is quite unorthodox.

What it says on the box. Pinkie Pie has a hearse (somehow). She drives it. Hijinks ensue. What kind of hijinks? You'll have to read to find out!

Now then, I wish you all a very amazing day

They say that music soothes the savage beast, an idiom as old as time and the modern world was no exception, despite their changes; even now, it'd wielded the power and potential to basically unite its listeners whether in proximity or distance altogether so to speak of: Equestria harnessed that power, with and without the Elements themselves, but that constant had been common knowledge all the same as is.

Of course, there were other countries, like and unlike them, which had their own unique talents, persistences, and resolves too: Neighpon, for all its differences between themselves and the outside world, was the epicenter of its own culture due to their upbringing; granted, similar ideas could be found elsewhere too but it didn't stop the equivalent exchanges either way, nations, creeds, and inhabitants.

Speaking of which, the landscape had changed one day when one popular song out of many had basically entered the forefront: little could be said about it freely except the lyrics were so filthy, airwaves were restricted around the young and old alike either way; still, despite their best efforts, individually and collectively, excerpts would find their way out into the open world, near consequences notwithstanding.

When the annual Kiddie Kite flying competition comes to Ponyville, the CMC are eager to participate. They enlist Starlight Glimmer, and with her aid, seek to make the largest kite Equestria has ever seen.

In her short life, Diamond Tiara has accomplished so much. And today, she has achieved her goal of becoming mayor. Sheʼs elated, of course, but what does that mean for her future?

In her long life, Mayor Mare has accomplished so much. It is time to step aside and spend her days in peaceful retirement. Sheʼs elated, of course, but how does one leave behind the past when itʼs defined you for so long?

The past and the future meet in the middle and together, come to an understanding about the present.
