After a long day at work all Applejack wants is to curl up in her bed and sleep the day away. But Granny Smith and Rainbow Dash seem to have other ideas.

AppleDash

Four ponies, four different perspectives. Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Twilight Sparkle and Applejack all share their perspectives of how Dash and AJ became a couple, and how they affected the outcome.

Another image-inspired shipping story, the impetus for this came from the John Joseco pic I'm using as the cover art. This one's a deliberate counter to Appledashed, too; AJ and RD are just too darn cute together to keep apart entirely.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash head into the Everfree forest to visit Zecora. They get sidetracked along the way and end up deeper in the forest, taking a wrong turn into Timberwolf territory.

I'm trying something new and writing this in Applejack's voice/P.O.V...so...apologies if it comes out wonky. I'm not used to doing first-person types of fiction.

Semi inspired by this pic here: http://johnjoseco.deviantart.com/art/Protecting-the-Ones-You-Love-202452478 but the author hasn't responded to my inquiry about using it as a thumbnail, so I'm not. ^.^

Also, Gore tag is gone after some thought, since the attacks aren't really gore-ish. I'm leaving it Mature just to be safe, though.

Soarin is a dead stallion! When Big Mac finds out that his sister is pregnant there is no force in all of Equestria that can keep the farmer from killing the Wonderbolt. Or is there?

This story has no connection to Slow to Realize which will have a new chapter soon. There are multiple pairings in this story as well, MacDash, SoarinJack, and CaraPie (Pinkie Pie Caramel). Please enjoy and leave a comment!

Thank you all so much for the feature story! You are all amazing!

Thanks to jszellmer for the amazing edits! As you know I hate commas so much.

KarmaDash for bouncing ideas around like crazy!

Whenever Applejack gets near Rarity she feels that something comes over her,
she gets more and more nervous the more she speaks to her,
her heart starts racing when she looks at her. As she trys to explain her feelings to others, something goes horribly wrong.

And now the blonde young woman must find a way to either get out of this mess or clean things up, but she can’t decide what to do.

The Acres set it up every year as Nightmare Night approaches: an old-fashioned haycart taking a Moon-lit tour of the property, with fillies and colts shrieking at the traditional fake horrors. And Rainbow? Thinks that's boring. It's the same stuff every time. None of it would ever scare her. Nothing Applejack could come up with is even capable of getting a reaction.

Applejack decides to treat that as a challenge.

And then cider gets involved.

Everyone knows Rarity has amazing flanks; Rainbow Dash is sure of that. So what is Applejack upset about?

A non-entry to a Quills and Sofas Panic Fiction with the prompt "Do I Know You?"

Every three years, Ponyville holds a festival celebrating beer and wine, which means this particular townwide party is going to be Spike and Twilight's first. As such, the mayor would truly appreciate it if they took an active claw and hoof in the proceedings.

Because when you're having an alcohol festival in a town populated by magically-capable individuals with dubious judgment skills, there's no possible way anything could go wrong.

...well, more wrong than usual. Or perhaps even wrong by design...

Applejack and Rarity discuss a little secret they're keeping between them, and a few plans for the future.

The fourth SYNCHRONY oneshot in the same continuity as Synchrony and Oathmaker.

Rarity has a creative design in mind. What lengths will she go to to get the tools she needs?
