Moondancer felt the familiar roiling in her gut that made her uneasy. The niggling voice in the back of her head telling her this is just temporary, they still think you're a hermit, and you are, aren't you? It was a feeling that wasn't uncommon to her, but still uncomfortable all the same.

The heartwarming events of the party suddenly feel sour to her, and though she's just leaving the park with a smile on her face and promises of a future ahead of her, she doesn't really think it'll last.

She hears hoofsteps approach, and she turns her head to see the sight of Twilight Sparkle, giving her a small (but knowing, much to Moondancer's fear) smile. "Hey. I thought- would you like for us to walk together back to your cottage?"

Princess Celestia, the ruler of the land of Equestria, faces a crisis when a powerful dark force threatens to destroy everything she has worked so hard to build. Along with her Royal Scheduling Advisor named Royal Quill and a small group of her most trusted advisors, she sets out on a journey to find the legendary Elements of Harmony, powerful magical artifacts that are said to have the power to defeat any evil.

- A story by applejack1063

Starlight Glimmer ran a small village of ponies she convinced to give up their destinies. She also tried to rip apart the most important friendship in all Equestria. But here she was, her first night in a castle with the same princess who convinced her to abandon her revenge in return for friendship. Now that things were settling, she can't seem to believe that she's being pardoned for her actions. Luckily, Twilight is there to help her resolve these thoughts.

During a rather peaceful day in the Canterlot Gardens, Princess Celestia begins to wonder about the nature of Chaos. Naturally, the best way to understand something so complicated is to speak to an expert in the field.

It is only too fortunate that Discord loves to talk about his favorite past-time.

Twilight and Rainbow Dash, together? Must be that 'opposites attract' thing. Then again, maybe they have more in common than they're letting on...

An ongoing series of slice-of-life snapshots. RD, I said to keep the Library clop-free, not... oh, forget it!

All chapters originally written as separate entries for flash-fic blog Thirty Minute Pony Stories (TMP). I highly recommend a visit to TMP if you're looking for some of the best 1000-word gems in pony fiction. Many thanks to TMP for inspiring me to write!

Epilogue - The next Daring Do book isn't out yet, so Twilight convinces Rainbow to read a romance novel instead. That never works - does it?

Second - Twilight reads everything she can get her hooves on. Sometimes she finds things she'd rather not know, or in this case, that Dash would rather not know.

Becoming Daring - The latest Daring Do novel isn't quite what Dash expected, and her reaction isn't what a friend of hers expected, either.

Firelight - Not every schedule has to be full and not every list has to be checked off.

Lift, Weight, Thrust, and Drag - Dash's friends can't save her from an anniversary date with Twilight, at which she will show Twilight a secret skill she's kept from everypony. Twilight's definitely not complaining!

The Wait - Agony is knowing the one you love is standing hoof to hoof with danger and knowing there's absolutely nothing you can do to help.

Hoofing It - One day, Twilight will learn that reading Daring Do alone won't get Dash to do everything. That day is not today.

Variations on a Theme - How many combinations of Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash can there be? Plenty!

Reluctantly Yours - There's something Rainbow Dash doesn't want to lose, and Twilight refuses to let it go. Will this be the end of the awesomeness that is Dash?

Closer to Home - Giving up one dream to keep another isn't always a bad trade.

Wings, Wonderbolts, and You - Always read the fine print. And the rest of it, too.

Pinfeathers - Dash was all she ever wanted and all she'll never have. Twilight hasn't lost Rainbow Dash, but someone has.

Daring Do and the Chapel Perilous - Something's wrong with the Daring Do fanfic Dash and Twi are reading, and it's not funny.

Pew! Pew! Pew! - Rainbow Dash finds new and unexpected uses for the Elements of Harmony.

Less of Me - Twilight decides to help Dash's career along, but she might be getting ahead of herself.

The Ink Wasn't Even Dry Yet - Dash and Twi go head to head in a battle for the ages! And oh, the stakes...

Audience - Twilight Sparkle doesn't dance. We hope. Dear heavens, please let her not dance.

The Trip and the Destination - Dash took on one storm too many and Twilight's had enough of it.

Twilight feels terrible. Spike was sick in the night. As the Princess of Friendship goes about trying to make her day better, she finds that all her friends are in poor spirits as well. Could there be some outside force intent on ruining their lives?

And is there any way to salvage their dreary, unpleasant day?

Winter Wrap Up heralds the coming of spring. It symbolizes the end of the long cold haul of winter and the rebirth of the land. It also happens to herald the coming of change and the budding of new love. This year, Twilight Sparkle finds herself struggling with strange feelings that only seem to surface when she's with her best friend, Rainbow Dash. Will Twilight be able to figure out what these 'feelings' mean and be able to manage the stress of coordinating Winter Wrap Up? And what will Rainbow make of these feelings?

Big thanks to The Abyss for doing a superb job editing this!

Everypony knows that accidents occasionally happen, even to one of the illustrious and nigh immortal rulers of the Equestria. With determination in her heart and a blemish on her once-pristine wall, Celestia sets out to mend her minor faux pas. Surely - surely applying some plaster can't be too difficult ~ right?

PS: I'm forsaking my Monument of Sin title in lieu of the newly minted and wholly self-appointed moniker of Obelisk of Innocence

One pony in Cloudsdale was willing to have a go at performing a Sonic Rainboom, but that stunt failed terribly and sends her tumbling to the ground. At the same time, a young farm pony is out finishing off the last of her chores.
