''Advice from Pinkie Pie'' is a ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' fanfic by [=HopeFox=]. You can read it at [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7388605/1/Advice_from_Pinkie_Pie Fanfiction.net]], [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/282432 Archive of Our Own]], or [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/1240/Advice-from-Pinkie-Pie FiMFiction.net]].

Rarity has had several wonderful dates with gentlemanly stallion Topaz Gleam. But when Topaz implies that he'd like to make their relationship sexual, Rarity isn't sure what to do. She seeks guidance from her friends, but Applejack, Twilight Sparkle, and Fluttershy have no experience with stallions, Rainbow Dash is nowhere to be found, and Pinkie Pie can't possibly help with a ''serious'' problem like this…right?

The fic is notable for combining OriginalFlavor dialogue and characterization of the Mane Six with frank and funny discussions of sexuality, '''without any actual sex scenes.'''

!!This FanFic contains examples of:

* {{Angst}}: Rarity's worries about whether she should sleep with Topaz or not are both PlayedForLaughs and shown sympathetically.
%%* CallBack: To Fluttershy's famous [[spoiler:"[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E26TheBestNightEver You're going to love me]]"]] line.
* CasualKink: Pinkie Pie enjoys UsefulNotes/{{BDSM}}. [[spoiler: Also, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash incorporate it into their sex life. Rainbow Dash is a masochistic submissive and Fluttershy is a sadistic dominant.]]
%%* CelibateHero: Twilight Sparkle, though she does enjoy romance novels.
* CloudCuckoolander: Pinkie Pie's oddball tendencies are present as always. When Rarity says she doesn't know what she'd do without Pinkie Pie, Pinkie says she doesn't know what she'd do without herself either, then comment that "that would be weird".
* CovertPervert: When Rarity asks Fluttershy about Dash's whereabouts, Fluttershy gives her one of these.
* CrazyInTheHeadCrazyInTheBed: The {{Cloudcuckoolander}} Pinkie Pie is depicted as an EthicalSlut in this fic.
* EthicalSlut: Pinkie Pie, in a rather epic instance of the trope. Equal emphasis is placed on the "slut" part and the "ethical" part.
* GoodBadGirl: Pinkie Pie's fun-loving personality extends to sex.
%%* HeadTiltinglyKinky: Pinkie Pie's escapades are implied to be this. [[spoiler: Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy]]'s sex life isn't exactly vanilla either.
* HeartbreakAndIceCream: Pinkie Pie offers Rarity ice cream after sex with Topaz goes wrong.
%%* HiddenDepths: All of the Mane Six, in regards to their sexuality, but especially Pinkie Pie, [[spoiler: Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy]]
* IdealizedSex: Thoroughly averted. Rarity knows that sex is more awkward in real life. But she wants it to go well, which is why she's looking for advice in the first place. Sex with Topaz turns out to be even more awkward than Rarity anticipated: [[spoiler:Topaz suddenly can't "perform." To save face, he blames Rarity for being too ugly and dumps her.]] Pinkie Pie helps Rarity get over her disappointment by explaining that the silliness of sex is just part of the fun.
%%* TheLoinsSleepTonight: [[spoiler: Happens to Topaz when he and Rarity try to do the deed.]]
* MasturbationMeansSexualFrustration: Applejack mentions [[UnusualEuphemism regularly seeing action with Doctor Hooves]] because she can't land any dates, as [[MySisterIsOffLimits her older relatives are secretly intimidating them away from her]].
%%* MoustacheDePlume: Inverted with romance author Summer Moonlight.
* MultiWaySex: Pinkie Pie says bodies in general are silly and putting two of them together for sex is double silly. Then she mentions that sometimes it's triple silly, or "(q)uadruple silly, [[NoodleIncident like last Wednesday]]."
* MySisterIsOffLimits: Applejack is still a virgin because, unbeknownst to her, her older brother Big Mac and Granny Smith keep intimidating and scaring away any would-be suitors.
* NaughtyByNight: [[spoiler:The timid Fluttershy is the sexually dominant one in her relationship with the boisterous Rainbow Dash.]]
* NerdsAreVirgins: Twilight Sparkle is more interested in studying than looking for a date.
%%* NoodleImplements: Pinkie's "toys."
%%* OfCourseImNotAVirgin: Twilight Sparkle insists this at first, but quickly gives up.
* OriginalFlavor: The Mane Six are admirably in character despite the mature subject matter.
* ParentsWalkInAtTheWorstTime: Mrs. Cake has walked in on Pinkie when she was "entertaining" a stallion. Pinkie passed it off as practice for the [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E13FallWeatherFriends Running of the Leaves.]]
* {{Pun}}: At one point, Rarity muses that [[spoiler:Rainbow Dash]] hasn't been able to give her advice yet because she "must still be tied up somewhere." Unbeknownst to her, said pony is currently tied up in a BDSM session with ropes.
* TheReveal: Rarity thinks that Rainbow Dash might have some good advice about stallions, but she can't find her anywhere. In fact, Rainbow Dash is [[spoiler:tied up in Fluttershy's bed.]]
* RomanceNovel: Summer Moonlight's "Sir Coppermane" series is apparently quite popular in-universe. Both Twilight Sparkle and Rarity are fans.
* SecretRelationship: [[spoiler: Fluttershy/Rainbow Dash. It's secret because Fluttershy is too shy to let anypony know yet.]]
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Twilight is most definitely ''not'' some recluse who spends all her time studying and would rather read a book than go on a date.
* UnusualEuphemism: The only sexual action Applejack's getting is from "good ol' Doctor Hooves." This does ''not'' mean the brown earth pony who lives in a little blue box.
* WhamLine: "Ooh, ooh, I know! You're worried that he's going to want to stick it in you and you won't know what to do!"
