Slice of Life
Eternity by Taialin

Study of Generosity by PaulAsaran
https://www.fimfiction.net/
A month ago, Scootaloo made the mistake of suggesting generosity was nothing more than looking rich and throwingthings at less fortunate ponies. Rarity set her straight, and Scoots has a much better appreciation for the concept.
But when she asks Rainbow Dash about it, she's treated to a view of Rarity she didn't expect. Rarity's done thingsin the past that don't mesh with the generous lifestyle she introduced Scootaloo to. Does that mean everything Rarity showed her was a lie? Is Rarity just a greedy, envious, corrupt fraud?
Scootaloo has to know more.

A Simple Raid? by WhispersInTheDark
https://www.fimfiction.net/
TheUSS Exeter, still damaged after a recent battle, scans a certain planet and finds evidence of much-needed dilithium crystals on the surface. Scans also show it's a pre-warp civilization, so the Prime Directive is in full force.
But they need those crystals, as the nearest starbase is hundreds of lightyears away. They only need a few poundsof them to repair their warp drive, then they can be back on course. How hard could it be to beam in, get the crystals from the primitives, and beam out?
What they don't know about is the white unicorn who's been using them for her dresses.
Those poor fools...
Bifröst by Carabas
https://www.fimfiction.net/
Wherein unreasonably well-groomed Vikings crash a wedding.
Discontinued by Estee
https://www.fimfiction.net/
Finding one's ideal assemblage of beauty products is somewhat more complicated than discovering the perfect mate:after all, when it comes to love, a mare has but to locate one pony. It's taken years for Rarity to learn what works best for her: in some cases, the only things which work at all. Which means that having a crucial shampoo (heronly shampoo!) taken out of the mix may create something of a minor issue.
Well, it's surely nothing which a proper lady can't deal with in dignity and grace. Also explosions.
She's still a Bearer. There's always explosions.

Resident Weevil by Estee
https://www.fimfiction.net/
There's really no way to prevent it. No matter how careful you are, regardless of one's dedication to personalcleanliness, they're going to get in eventually. And for most ponies, it's a moment of deep gross-out, followed by scrubbing down their entire pantry, kicking out far too much of what's in it, and ending with a regretfully expensive shopping trip to replacewhat was lost.
But this is Rarity. The situation was unacceptable. And her intention was to take out the problem at the source.
Now if she can just find a way of explaining that to the jury...
