In the voyage between the stars, it is easy for humans to lose themselves. Their ship is outfitted with assistants to help with this, to remind them that childish innocence is something to hold and cherish. The Pony Intelligences are ready for duty.

Writing this because I felt like it.

As an agent of S.M.I.L.E., I've always had one goal: Keep Equestria safe from the dangers that the general populace shouldn't know about. It's something not anypony can do, and that's precisely why I do it. The threats I face are fierce, and I don't always come home with a clear conscience. However, in my heart, I know that what I'm doing is for the greater good.

At least, I thought I did.

When Sunset receives a particularly lascivious text message from Twilight, she's really not sure how to handle it. Of course when she finds out it was intended for someone else, she decides finding out who it was meant for is of the utmost importance! Why? She doesn't know, shut up, it's not like she likes Twilight or anything.

Written because I need more shippy horse high school garbage in my life.

Rarity and Sunset are having their third weekly Dappled Shores marathon.

(This story is a semi-sequel to Sun and Flurries, and its related semi-sequels. Familiarity with those works is not required to understand this one. Based on a request from Yaakov Lubin.)

Spike has accepted the request that he become the next dragon lord, even though it means he'll have to leave Twilight and leave behind his position of royal advisor. But Spike has reluctantly decided that it's just what he'll have to do.

As Spike prepares to transition to his new title and his new life, he is surprised to be receive a visit from a princess. Not just any princess, but Princess Flurry Heart, herself a relatively new ruler of the Crystal Empire.

Shocked by the news of Spike's change, Flurry Heart opts to have a conversation with her unofficial "Uncle". In particular, she has her own worries and fears related to her job title that she hopes he'll be able to help her with.

There are certain rules every Wonderbolt has to follow so no pony can accuse them of cheating their way to the top, every prospect faces the same tests and is expected to make it themselves. Fortunately, Captain Spitfire seems eager to help Rainbow achieve her dream and finally don the iconic blue and yellow of her heroes.

But come to think of it, why should Spitfire take that much of an interest in her?

This story is a sequel to A Mare's Image

Several nosy little birdies put Surprise on the path to discovering Spitfire's budding relationship with Rainbow Dash. If Spitfire gets her hooves on any of them, they won't be flying so well. Especially if that information gets spread around to the rest of her team, or Rainbow's friends.

Just what part of "keeping this quiet until Rainbow gets settled as a Bolt" is so hard to understand?
