Fluttershy knew the difficulties of saving and maintaining an animal's health. She'd known that, sometimes, a creature in recovery didn't always make it.

Yet, when this one particular creature under her care perishes, a break in the quiet is all that follows.

accidental non-con tag was accidental

Rainbow Dash lived alone; Tank had long since disappeared, having left her to herself. Her cloud-house, high above the town of Ponyville, was isolated from everypony she knew, and she hated it.

Because, while Rainbow Dash knows she's alone... why does it feel like she isn't?

* = i mean, eventually, right?

This story is a prequel to Kinda-Heartwarming Moment with Applebloom

A young human winds up in Equestria and is promptly coerced into a weird friendship with horses. He laments, and he resents his being there, but a certain young filly makes it somewhat bearable.

Even if he is kinda forced to go to that stupid horsecoming thing. He doesn't even go to horse school!

Applebloom hated the snow.

Applebloom hated Hearth's Warming; she hated the holidays. For good reason. She was practically always by herself during them. She hated how alone she had felt when her siblings would leave for work for the long duration of a week or two. How scary winter truly was; the snow.

Especially this particular Hearth's Warming.

Because she didn't build a snowmare and there was one looking through her window.

Local human and best friend to the Element of Loyalty realizes rather abruptly that he sees her as more than a friend.

If only there wasn't the problem of Applejack and the fact he was with her.

Orenthal Cornelius Hayes "Gibby" Gibson wakes up one day, but not in his bed. Of course, the logical explanation is that his mother finally put together his interdimensional travel device from Nebraska, the lucky country.

Because interdimensional travel is just as real as time travel. Suck an egg, Freddie!

The actual truth is much more depressing, but, this is a comedy, so overlook that little tidbit.

While in Small Horse-land, he decides to unite his people and theirs. Kinda, in a sense. I guess? This goes just as well as one would expect.

No, definitely not a good thing. The power of life and death in one's hooves? Who could do such a thing without going mad!

Well, obviously Pinkie, but... is she seriously the best pony for the job?

I mean, she doesn't even know she's a Reaper!

Maud.

To most, she is just your boring average girl with little to no emotion. To few, she is the most interesting woman in the world.

Kinda. Boulder doesn't care for her stories, but he cannot say anything for he is a rock.

He's no good guy, but he's definitely not a villain. Captain Sprinkletits only does what he does simply because he hates his name. Yes, it's as simple as that.

Oh, I guess I sort of lied, he hates his mother for having given it to him in the first place. Now it's as simple as that.

Everything pirate that he's done is just to grind her gears. To Twilight's chagrin, she'd made it onto that short list.

"My greatest performance?"

Trixie Lulamoon: Magic aficionado, show-mare, self-proclaimed Great and Powerful... and apparent amnesiac?

It was after the events of Trixie's first staging in Ponyville, the showmare found herself in a ditch. Not exactly a metaphorical one either; her wagon—or what she assumed was her wagon—was pulled neatly off to the side of the road. A star plastered on the door to the little trailer had a name that spanned across it:

Trixie's, but why doesn't she remember that being her name?
