It's Twilight's birthday! Pinkie gives Twilight a book on how to be Pinkie. At first dubious, Twilight becomes fascinated by the view into Pinkie's mind.

Twilight Sparkle was desperate: her studies were failing, she lost her friendship, and she kicked Spike out of her library in a fit of rage. After gulping down four buckets of ice cream, she knew that there was only one way out for her...

BTW, read this. This is far better than my story!

You forgot your bracelet at my place when you came for your visit. So I came back to Ponyville to return it to you.

And, by the way, Twi—why did you cry?

Twilight has an experiment planned, and it centres on Rainbow Dash.

As anxious as she is, Dash really has no right to complain.

It was her idea after all.

Fan Reading!

Rainbow Dash needs help with a problem. It's the day before Hearth's Warming Eve, and she still doesn't have a gift for one of her friends. But for this particular friend it can't be any old gift, no. This gift is for Twilight Sparkle; Student of Princess Celestia, Element of Magic, and Rainbow's crush.

Happy Hearths' Warming to everyone. I hope you enjoy this special I threw together for the festive season.

Rainbow Dash hates getting up early to go through such a tedious routine. It's a waste of valuable time. She could be sleeping or enjoying a few extra moments with her marefriend in their nice, warm bed.

Of course, that doesn't mean she can't have a bit of fun with it.

Just as Rainbow Dash is about to drift off to sleep, a sound pulls her from the brink, and she decides to investigate.

Scootaloo, now in the care of Twilight and Rainbow Dash, remembers her time as an orphan, and how she became their kid.

Rainbow has missed a meeting of Twilight's book club, and the alicorn wants to know why. The answer may come as a bit of a shock to her.

I never stopped thinking about you. Not once. Every day, I remembered your voice, your smile, your eyes. And every time it hurt worse than I could have ever imagined. And each day was worse than the last. I love you. More than anything in Equestria. More than flying, more than the Wonderbolts, more than my wings, I love you, Twilight. Goodbye.

Happy Hearts and Hooves day?
