Shockingly safe for work.

Twilight Sparkle is a pony who prides herself on a few select qualities, as many do. One of these things is the fact that she has a very wide taste in reading. However, she would never dream of reading an erotic story... until it happened by accident, so she says. Things would have ended there if she didn't somehow end up loaning the book to one of her friends. As Twilight Sparkle claims, she didn't realize it was actually pornographic until she was invested in the story!

When winter's thaw comes at last, we all learn to move with the tide of the melted snow. We learn to continue our lives from what we once had before time had stopped the best that we can. For better or for worse, we follow the flowing water wherever it might take us.

Following the events of "Melting Snow", Caramel and Big Macintosh continue to explore the depths of their relationship, the two growing closer with each passing day. The days feel short, spring approaching as the seeds of the apple fields are planted one by one, roots sprouting as they firmly plant themselves comfortably into the new soil, ready to sprout and explore the world.

It's been weeks since Soarin was expected to recover from his flight accident that happened in the middle of the Wonderbolt's tour. The hospital walls seem bare and uninviting, his only escape from the silence being the heavy downpours frequent in the rainy season. He happens to meet Braeburn on the night of the Wonderbolts final show of the tour which he was supposed to be with, upset and angry he finds comfort in Braeburn's warm words and kindness. Soon their lives become entangled, their stories intertwining under the falling debris.

Stand up straight, keep your appearance, be perfect. These are just a few things that Prince Blueblood believes is required of a common prince. It's easy for Blueblood to keep his mane neat and not make a fool of himself, but to ignore the pounding in his chest when he thinks of his best friend who married a princess... that's another story. Fancy Pants is a new seed in the garden of his life. It's hard to explain what exactly drew Blueblood to Fancy Pants in the first place, but he finds the more time they spend together the more he finds his heart pounding at the thought of the stallion.

While traveling to spend time with the Apple Family for Hearths Warming Eve , both Big Macintosh and Caramel decide to at the very least enjoy their time together by exchanging gifts in their icy train cart after their train gets stopped in the middle of their journey due to heavy blizzards.

Meant to be fluff, little has been edited, just enjoy the gay shipping.

The spotlight's burning glare and vibrating roaring crowds fade on the famous vice-captain's ears as the Autumn tour for Equestria's famous Wonderbolts comes to a dramatic close with a turnout of fans bigger than they've had all season. Soarin is finally ready to relax for a change. Drink a few glasses of cider, fly around freely, and spend time with his very special somepony, who he hasn't seen in quite some time.

That was before said somepony decided to drop in unexpected at his final show.

Caramel's life could be considered a simple one at best, but a boring one at first. He's never been one to easily make friends, that's for sure. He sticks to himself mostly and attempts to stay out of the way of the lives of ponies around him. It's easier that way. Simpler. Talking to ponies is a challenging enough task on its own merits, but romance? He's never dreamed of romance.

Of course, that all changed when Big Macintosh entered his life.

Big Macintosh tried his best to simply travel through life without causing any trouble, and without getting too attached to somepony outside of his family walls. But as a childhood friend he thought to be long forgotten by the name of Caramel suddenly shows up unexpected, he happens to bring a few demons along with him.

A hundred miles away however, The Wonderbolts tour around Equestria, each new show of their Equestrian tour becoming more and more stressful for the lot. It becomes harder and harder to maintain a somewhat normal daily life for vice-captain, Soarin, and even harder to keep a bond between him and his coltfriend, Braeburn Apple.

Big Macintosh didn't remember when it started, he didn't know just how long it had been going on, but for the past few years he began to hate the tan colored stallion named Caramel more and more. The way he acted, looked, and even talked angered Big Macintosh beyond reason at times.

Maybe it all started the first time he pressed his muzzle against his best friend's soft, tender lips... but that could only be a hunch.

Smarty Pants comes home after school after being chased home by a group of bullies throwing stones at her, and heads straight to her bedroom to sulk alone. She attempts to take her mind off of things by doodling random pictures, one of a doll she names Twilight.

In an attempt to leave her reality for a short while, she decides to make one of her own.
