What happens when you realize that your feelings for one of your friends aren't quite the same as your feelings for the rest of them? Do you just prefer some friends for others, or is it a sign of something deeper? What do you do with those feelings? Hide them? Admit them? And how will the rest of your friends react when they find out?

Twilight is going to have to do her best to find the answers, because they're anything but obvious.

Yes, this is a story about romance, but I'm trying to use it to explore the relationships between the characters and see how they'd really react if romantic feelings ever did crop up, and how such a development would impact the cast as a whole.

Now with a TvTropes page!

There's also a dramatic reading in progress on youtube, here.

And also an updated verison of the cover, courtesy of Novel Idea.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders are gathered in their clubhouse, trying to find out something to do. Sweetie Belle soon comes up with an idea: baking. Problem is, they don't have needed equipment or ingredients in their clubhouse, so they have to go ask their sisters and friends for a permission to work in their kitchen.

And of course after finding a place where to bake, there is the baking itself. Will they be able to bake anything edible, or will the results of their baking be just some black crumbs?

(Fanfic reading here. Thanks to Agent Fluffy and rest of the cast!)

Dinky Hooves knew she was different to the other ponies in her class. she just couldnt seem to understand things the way the others did, and because of this, they avoided her. She could'nt find a single friend, except Mummy. Derpy and Dinky would have great times together, playing, baking, and doing just about everything they set their minds too. Derpy loved Dinky, even if no one else did.

What makes a good story? Is it delicate prose and captivating description, as Twilight Sparkle claims, or is it non-stop action and entertainment, as Rainbow Dash has been arguing? With a stalemate between them, they decide there's only one way to settle this once and for all—a write-off!

The prompt? "Romance."

An attempt to break new ground in the world of magic goes terribly wrong for Twilight and the Mane cast find themselves with the wrong abilities. Can they deal with this change? Can Twilight set things right without magic? And what powers did Pinkie get?

((funny story, I wrote much of this prior to the release of season 2 and so some of the magical happenings are rather strange coincidences.))

After rising to stardom following Rarity's first, poorly received fashion show, Vinyl Scratch struggles to adapt to the higher class of life celebrity status bestows. Her personality and own moral values do not mix with the fake, corporate ideals of her agent, and her sponsors are only interested in her as long as she conforms to their expectations. Her life is barely her own and soon she will have to decide what's more important; her existing relationships, her fame and fortune, or perhaps something unexpected in the form of a refreshingly grounded Canterlot Elite who just invited her to breakfast during the Canterlot Music Convention.

A Vinyl Scratch x Octavia story where the two Ponies involved don't instantly form a romantic relationship the moment they meet, and instead allows it to grow over time with good old character development.

All criticism is welcome, and of course some spoilers follow in the comments below so please read cautiously.

My bid to make "Wubsy" a more official part of the fannon. Check the source of the fic image to see the comic that started it all.

A gracious thank you to GarlicParsnip, Comma-Kazie, Chengar Qordath, JJ GingerHooves and Steel Resolve who proofread and co-authored the piece.

Twilight Sparkle flagrantly abuses her Come-To-Life spell, and learns a little bit about love in the process. Also, puns.

Now with actual cover art, thanks to the generous SuddenlyFerrets!
