After a visit from Cadance and Shining Armor, Twilight realizes how little she understands romantic love and decides to do -what else?- some research. But she has to learn a lot quicker than she expected, for Princess Celestia has invited Twilight and her friends to a Hearts and Hooves Gala- and they're expected to bring dates!

What follows is a chaotic set of events in which hearts are broken, crushes are acted upon, cakes explode, and the very foundation of the Mane 6 is rocked to its core.

My first fic, so don't expect any spectacular writing. I've got a vague idea of the relationships, but things may change, as I'm trying to let things be organic. Assume nothing.

Recently rewritten. Contains occasional adult humor and violence.
***
On a request from Princess Celestia, Twilight Sparkle and the rest of the mane six explore an abandoned mansion located deep in the woods. While doing so, they unwittingly stumble across an enchanted mirror that scrambles their DNA and pops out three brand new bouncing baby ponies. Hilarity and drama ensue as the mane six must cope with being suddenly thrust into motherhood, as well as protect their new foals from a dark god that wishes to use them for his own sinister gain.

Rainbow Dash has no idea what Rarity's problem is. Dash isn't messy. She just isn't super-neat like her prissy unicorn girlfriend. Rarity's the one with the problem here, clearly.

While at the spa, Rarity encounters an unexpected pony working there. What is Rainbow Dash up to?

This story is a sequel to Stranger Than Fan Fiction

After the events of Stranger Than Fan Fiction, a formal party is thrown in honor of Rarity's new line of dresses. All of her friends are there to support her, including Applejack.

Dash, Twilight, and Pinkie have made it their goal to try to set up the two friends as a couple. But can they get past the awkward kiss from the story?

For better or for worse, this will be the night that everything changes.

Edit: Now featured in Twilight's Library!

(This story isn't a clop fic and the Sex tag is explained in a comment. I will not be altering the plot to include a lot of sex nor is the sex tag supposed to indicate so.)

After a hard day of working, Rainbow Dash has a conversation with Tank. She complains about being a hard working pony and how she wishes she could be a pet like him. During the conversation her mind begins to fantasize the sweet life of an owned pony and acts on it.

When Fluttershy is being given total control of another pony's life she doesn't know how to properly deal with such a responsibility. She slowly learns that having a pony you know as a pet isn't all that great.

Rarity just couldn't find any passion in her relationship with her special somepony and felt she had no choice but to leave him. This has happened time, after time, over and over. Rarity just can't figure out why she can't find a relationship that makes her happy. When Pinkie Pie comes over to her boutique to comfort her, she gives her advice that Rarity has never thought of before. Maybe she didn't like stallions, but instead, mares! Rarity soon discovers that she has been hiding all these feelings from herself for all this time. Rarity then soon finds out that maybe the strongest feeling she has been hiding...was the one for Pinkie Pie.

When the Cake's go away for a weekend trip, leaving Pinkie home, Rarity steps in to offer her pink friend a place to stay for a few days so she won't be alone. With the two stuck under a roof together and Rarity slowly seeing a side of her friend she never knew existed, will romance blossom or will friendships crumble?

Now has a part two in the making, check out 'Weekdays are too short' in my stories to see the continuation.

"Where is she?"
