Pinkie Pie: happiest, most cheerful pony in Ponyville.. Not.
She may not have loved herself, they might have not loved her the way she loved them but that didn't matter.
As long as she kept smiling, it would all be alright, wouldn't it?

My collection of short stories, written using prompts from Thirty Minute Ponies.
Many varying subjects, so if one doesn't suit you, the next might.
[Note: Fire's a lazy pony. Updates might be few and far between.]

Sequel to Apologies, my story about Rainbow Dash breaking Pinkie's heart told in letter format.
Years after, once everything is all said and done, Pinkie receives the letter. But there's a note tucked inside with a few words that make her realize what really happened and why she received that letter.

Pinkie Pie. She can't be kept down by anyone. She's like a helium balloon. Until the pony she trusts most breaks her heart. She is inconsolable, and moves without telling anyone where she's going. Rainbow Dash decides she has to fix things somehow.
Story told as a letter from Dash to Pinkie, apologizing.
