Ponyville's weather is never quite the same without Rainbow Dash at the helm.

When a week of bad weather frays the nerves of Ponyville's farmers, they'll go to dubious lengths to stop one of their own from winning the heart of Rainbow Dash, and hogging all the good weather in the process.

A ton of vectors in the cover art:
Applejack
Rainbow Dash
Berry Punch
Carrot Top
Daisy, Rose, and Lily

And, as usual, scene change markers from here.

Written for the Variety is the Spice of Life challenge. Each prompt features a different Mane 6 x Mane 6 ship.

Teen Sex tag applies only to certain chapters (noted in the titles) for edgier content, but nothing explicit.

Chapters are presented in the order of the tags given in the original challenge, not in the order written.

(10 of 15 ships done, new chapters will be posted as the rest are written.)

Cutie marks in cover image and chapter banners came from here.

“Hey RD! Come pick me up at the ’Acres at seven. We’re goin’ on a date tonight.”

“What?!”

Applejack seems determined, Rainbow Dash tries to catch up.

Twilight, Applejack and Rainbow Dash discuss Earth pony and Pegasus magic and what makes Earth ponies special.

Big thanks to Jackie for prereading even when I got defensive about some commas. (Commas are evil.)

Snapshots in the life of a cowpony and a weather manager.

Heavily inspired by TheLastBrunnenG's Thirty Minute Ponies collections. Unstarred chapters are edited and expanded from minifics originally posted for the AppleDash group. *Starred* chapters are wholly unique to this collection.

Chapters are arranged in chronological order and new chapters may not always appear last. Going to consider this functionally complete.

Scene change markers scaled down from here.

Octavia and Vinyl Scratch have been friends ever since they were fillies. One is dealing with unrequited love, the other with new and confusing feelings. Can their love for music bring them love for each other?

A two for one story:
Classical is written from Octavia's point of view, Trance is through Vinyl's eyes.
Coda contains a tie-in to my first story, Pillow-Talk.

For an explanation of some of the musical terms in "Classical", see here.

Rainbow Dash is injured at Sweet Apple Acres and is unable to fly home or to head up her storm team. A leaky roof puts Applejack's guest room out of commission. When these two friends share a bed, friendship slowly becomes more. But what will their friends and family think?

Cancelled, see this blog post.
