The last thing Cozy Glow knew, she was about to be stoned; suddenly, she's in a mountain cabin, with Twilight Velvet asking her to color. What's the meaning of this?! Is Cozy Glow going to be ... redeemed? Or punished?!

Twilight Velvet knows one thing that her daughter Princess Twilight Sparkle has forgotten; that Cozy Glow might be a wannabe despot, a power-hungry pegasus who allied herself with Chrysalis and Tirek, but in the end ... she was only a filly. Twilight Velvet is determined to see just what kind of filly Cozy Glow really is, at her core. But can she be saved? Or is Cozy Glow truly irredeemable?

Second Place winner!

Another day, another skiing trip. Double Diamond now has the blessing of having a friend accompany him on his outings. On the other hoof, he finds it strange that Party Favor goes with him more often than Sugar Belle or Night Glider. Something is up with the balloon-making stallion. But what?

Perhaps a little advice from a local specialist might point him in the right direction.

NOTES
1. The story involves season 5 spoilers. Watch the first two episodes before reading this.

A relationship cannot be defined in just twelve days, but if Shining Armor and Big Mac had to pick, it would be these.

Written for daOtterGuy for the Enchanted Library Secret Santa 2023!

The newly coronated Princess Twilight suffers an abrupt tragedy. Having lost two loved ones, she begins to question her own mortality, and that of her friends.

AJ, Dash, Rarity, Pinkie, Fluttershy. . . they are just the beginning. Twilight will live for thousands of years, so every pony she cares about—every pony she will ever care about, will die.

She could barely handle the pain of one funeral, let alone the thought of hundreds of them. Twilight finds a clever way to ensure all of her friends never die. They can’t all be ageless alicorns, but they can all move into Twilight’s Dollhouse. Then they can be best friends forever.
