Rainbow didn’t know Rarity was dropping in for a surprise visit. “It’s just, like, so much,” she’d said to Fluttershy, the two standing outside the cottage, the sounds of the wind and animals masking Rarity’s steps. “I’m exhausted.” Rarity stopped, frozen by the remark. Her name hadn’t been said, but she knew nevertheless. She knew in the core of her heart this was about her. “She needs time,” Fluttershy replied, and though she sounded gentle, her tone… her…- 2.3 K • Ongoing
- Twilight Sparkle arrived at the hotel’s breakfast area precisely ten minutes after it opened, which was one hour earlier than she’d arrived all the previous days. This was not because she was excited to eat, mind you, but because she barely slept, kept up the entire night by the fact that she and Rarity had kissed. Bleary, baggy eyes scanned the large dining hall, hoping to catch sight of her friends somewhere within the mass of ponies carrying trays around in varying degrees of tiredness.…

V. The Humdrum of Routine It’s interesting how quickly one falls into routine, into patterns that are both familiar and novel, tacitly established as most things are. I never expected you to buy us coffee in the mornings, yet you always did. You never expected me to buy us tea at night, yet I always did. So many things begin silently, have you noticed? Or, rather, not silently so much as…there’s a word for it…unnoticed? That’s not quite it, but I can’t think of anything else.…- 45.2 K • Oneshot
It started, as most things in my life tend to do, with moi. Specifically, it started in an Equestrian city that is as beautiful as it is deadly, much like myself. A city of wonders, of glitz and glam that draws your attention away from the vipers living amongst its citizens, whispering and hissing and judging your every step, every move, and every word. Does it sound like I’m bitter? It does, doesn’t it? Well, let me assure you that I’m not. Blue magic enveloped a doorknob, and a grand…- 3.9 K • Oneshot
Princess Luna sat by the sea. It was a sea made of stars, stretching out before her like an endless expanse, constellations and galaxies and lustrous nebulae swirling around the abyss in a pattern that made no particular sense. Life, she’d found, didn’t often make sense. Life, really, was just a series of things and events that didn't make sense, but one had to try to make sense of them nonetheless. For a thousand years— For most of her life, Princess Luna’s thoughts…- 25.4 K • Ongoing
Today happened to be a very important day for Princess Rarity of Equestria. Lady Cadance, the young pegasi ruler of the Crystal Empire, was visiting the castle for the first time that day, which Twilight knew was significant to Rarity for one reason and one reason only: Lady Cadance was very beautiful, and Rarity very clearly wanted to fawn all over her. “Do you think she’ll like me?” Princess Rarity asked dreamily for the tenth time that hour, lying on her bed and admiring an…- 9.4 K • Oneshot
There are things in life one is prepared for. An expensive dress commission falling through? Aggravating, but manageable. An unexpected weekend sleepover featuring Sweetie Belle and her rowdiest friends? Nothing she couldn't take in stride. Carousel Boutique being set on fire? Really unfortunate, but one could rise above it with the right attitude. Your best friend, whom you meet nearly every day and tell all your secrets too, announcing she's in a committed relationship with an…- 3.7 K • Oneshot
She stumbled out of the club, the freezing air numbing her very exposed skin, yet doing absolutely nothing about soothing the burn in her heart, searing with a pain so intense it was almost disorienting. She came to a stop right at the edge of the sidewalk, her eyes fixed on a puddle on the street, the most pathetic woman in the world gawking back at her with wide, puffy eyes. “Rarity—!” Someone was calling to her. Delilah, probably. She sounded annoyed. She probably was, Rarity ruining her night…- 14.7 K • Ongoing
