Ocellus has been having some conflicting thoughts on her place at the School of Friendship. She loves her time there, and the friends she's made, but she can't help but wonder if there's anything more to it than just friendship. So she does the sensible thing and asks her guidance councilor.

Set a couple days after the near-disaster that was Rarity's fashion debut for new up-and-coming designers (Honest Apple), this story is about two ponies who tried to ignore and shove away their feelings.

After Rarity finds out from Apple Bloom that Applejack sometimes goes out to some unknown location in the orchards to work off stress. And that she's been gone out there for a couple days this time, she makes her way to Sweet Apple Acres; determined to find out what is wrong with her friend.

Oh wow! Was featured on 7/21/17!

Rarity has nowhere to go on Hearth's Warming Eve, so she decides to pay Applejack a visit at Sweet Apple Acres. She should have known that they'd end up arguing.

Together, the two mares must find a way to salvage the evening. And Rarity has to figure out how to keep hiding her crush on Applejack - a task getting harder by the minute.

Or maybe tonight's the night she should finally confess...

Written solely because I needed some fluff in my life. Also, cover art by me. Haha, just kidding. I don't know who drew the art, but it's beautiful, so please let me know if you do!

This story is a sequel to Can Ya Fix Her?

After a few days of waiting and planning, Thunderlane finally gets the courage to go back to Carousel Boutique, look for that pretty pink dress, and ask Rarity to buy it. Any number of things could happen, but a number of things--Rarity's heartbreaking refusal, a full, soul-bearing confession, and a sexy strut across the carpet--are the only things Thunderlane didn't expect.

He also could never have expected to question himself. His life choices. His identity. Who or what he is, or what he ought to be.

He just wanted to feel pretty. But is that all there is to it?

Contains light sexual references. Not enough for a Sex tag. At least, I don't think so.

Princess Luna has always been more at home on the battlefield than in a palace. The reasons for that were left mostly unexamined, for things are what they are, so why try to fight fate? Fish do not fly, birds do not swim, and the princess of the moon cannot be anything other than what she is. But when a dream reveals that in this modern age the impossible can become reality, she begins to examine who she is in an all new light.

A story about identity, discovery, and love.

This is technically set in the same world as Over a Cardboard Sea, but the two stories are only vaguely related and you do not have to read one in order to appreciate the other. It also takes place in the same world as Either Or and shares some themes with it.

It's hard when you want two mutually exclusive things. That's the dilemma Big Mac faces, because becoming Orchard Blossom would mean giving up being Big Macintosh. Still, he can't help but wish he could somehow have both.

A very small story, just because.

Applejack and Matte Palette were best friends when they were younger. Like her, the poor colt doesn’t seem to have much in common with kids his own gender, so they formed an unlikely duo. The two were inseparable, right up until Applejack moved to live with the Orange side of her family, and the childhood friends fail to keep in touch.

But time passes, and Applejack returns to Ponyville. Her biggest hope is to pick up where she left off, and that includes her friendship with Matte Palette. Something seems different about him, though.

Written as a birthday present for Dessert, who also did the cover art. More of their art can be found here

I always loved my little brother. He has always been one of the friendliest, sweetest, and most unique colts you would ever meet. But I always had the knowledge that he was different, and a lot of ponies would hate him for it. It wasn't until this most recent spring that the cruel reality of the world would break him down. From that moment on, Celestia could only tell what his fate would bring. My name is Fluttershy, and this is the story of my brother, Mockingbird.

There are two reasons Applejack can't lie -- her mother and father.
