Cooking contests are tough. Cooking contests judged by princesses are tougher. Sometimes you think you need to go that extra length to get the best out of yourself. And sometimes you are wrong.

Rated Teen for some suggestive lines, but very innocent, really.

Written in about two hours, with absolutely no editing at all, so forgive any stupid errors. I just had to. Blame the art linked below...

SPOILER: Totally inspired by this hilarious and wonderful piece of art. CHECK IT OUT!

A bad day and a rainy night. It’s enough to drive a mare to drink. Winding up in a dark bar on the streets of Canterlot, Rainbow Dash finds herself meeting up with a mare who is elegant, graceful, and totally gorgeous. All the qualities that Dash thinks she completely lacks. What the heck could they have in common?

On this particular night, far more than she might realize.

Pinkie Pie has noticed something about Princess Luna that no pony else seems to see, and she wants to do something about it. And what does Pinkie do?

PARTY TIME!

Two guys, sitting there, watching television.

This is what happens when you let your brain wander after writing a 140,000 word novel about ponies. Not a canon part of the Who Rules? Faniverse, maybe not even a slingshot part, but it was written and here it is.

I have no regrets. Except for all my regrets.

Five of the main six carpool. Every day. That leads to some interesting conversations on the way to work. This is just one of those days.

Applejack's cousin from Las Pegasus, a dancer, comes to visit, and catches everyone off guard. Especially Spike, who is instantly smitten with the young mare--and Rarity is none too happy about it.

Following her defeat and expulsion from Canterlot, Chrysalis is fuming. That mood doesn't improve when Celestia arrives on her doorstep. Things degrade from there...
