Well, it looks like Scootaloo will spend another Hearth's Warming without parents. Unless she can wrangle up some. At least one pony around here should be willing to help her wish come true.
Rarity never thought she'd be asked to reprise her role as Princess Platinum, especially not this way, and especially not involving her sister as well. But she understands the importance. Even if it might mean she can't be Rarity ever again.
Dinky follows in her mother’s hoofsteps: just a little bit different. So naturally when she finds an interesting frog in the forest, the correct answer is to see where it takes her.
Fluttershy can’t awaken from her nightmare, if it even is a nightmare. Nopony knows predators and prey better than her, but she'd never truly felt like prey before. She only has to make it until morning.
Adagio Dazzle has a penchant for showing up at the wrong time in places special to Sunset Shimmer. School, the PostCrush concert, and now her favorite music cafe. Adagio doesn’t seem to be causing any trouble yet, but sirens only sing for one reason.
Princess Skystar has heard such wonderful things about Hearth’s Warming from Silverstream that she wants to introduce it to Seaquestria. Queen Novo doesn’t mind the idea, so she’ll go research it for a minute and—what happened?
Sunset Shimmer must have felt nervous about meeting Princess Celestia again. She couldn’t even be mad at Celestia anymore, even though by all rights she should. If she could just be loved, maybe that would prove enough.
Luster Dawn is a promising young student at the School of Friendship, but somehow, she just doesn’t get it, and her grades have slipped. With the past and present perfectly aligned, Trixie will again give somepony the most precious gift she ever has.
Long ago, Princess Celestia took on an important responsibility from Pinkie: to keep their world going. She’d seen the toll it took on Pinkie Pie, but she couldn’t allow anyone else to bear it. If only a higher authority could assume the burden.
Apple Bloom and I shared an unusual attitude about our mothers, and it helped to talk about it. But eventually she didn’t need her old friend Derpy anymore. I didn’t think it would hurt this much.
For Tempest Shadow, blending into daily life is taking some time. Hearth’s Warming proves a bit of a challenge to understand—no, more to remember. She’d blocked out much of her foalhood. Twilight suggests Sweetie Belle to help her recover it.
Derpy always considered herself an unusual pony, but then so did everypony else. They just don’t know why: she talks to ghosts. As would befit an unusual pony, she encounters a most unusual ghost. Of course she’d want to make it her friend.
Sweetie Belle has managed to snag an elusive spot on Princess Celestia’s calendar, but it’s only for a school assignment to interview somepony. On second thought, maybe she's only wasting the Princess’s time.
The assignment Miss Cheerilee gave the class should have been simple. But it got Sweetie Belle thinking about her Hearth’s Warming present for Rarity. It’s complicated. Maybe Twilight can help.
Years ago, Octavia still loved music. Years ago, Luna thought she might yet do some good from her prison. Years ago, Vinyl Scratch found herself in an interminable dream. One night could set them all free.
Princess Platinum relishes her duty of raising the moon, but in all the centuries of her predecessors, it had never spoken to them. And now Luna wants to take that from her.
A quaint old well, a shiny coin, the first star of the evening: all harbingers of good luck and happy wishes. But lately, several ponies can’t even remember making wishes. They certainly wouldn’t have wished for this.
Derpy is that one relentlessly happy person who never lets anything get her down. That’s one of the things Sunset most loves her for. But lately, Derpy doesn’t look happy.
Roam-springa: a period of self-reflection. At least that’s what Mom calls it. Who has time for that? Especially when Limestone is the one in charge. She doesn’t need a stupid waste of a couple weeks to know where she belongs.
Twilight Sparkle only wants to check Sweet Apple Acres off her list of wells, but according to Applejack, some nasty little animals live near it. Bureaucracy will save the day!
Something bad has happened to Sweetie Belle, so why won’t anypony tell Apple Bloom what? At least she can keep her friend company, and Sweetie Belle can hear her talking. Everypony says so. If friendship really is magic, she sure could use some now.
Very few ponies have ever gotten a dressing-down in person from Princess Celestia. So at least Berry Punch has that going for her. Even though what she did wasn’t technically illegal.
While out on a rather standard errand, a young Rarity encounters a strange new filly. A hyperactive pink one, who seems to be struggling with her own newfound talent as well.
Vice-Principal Luna seems to get all the leftover jobs nobody else around the school will do. If not for getting cooped up in the building, at least she could enjoy some moonlight. Her students will never cease to surprise her
Has Sunset actually changed? She’s nice enough around her friends, and one of them has become something wonderfully more. But what does her girlfriend see in her?
Of course Applejack wants everypony to think apples are the best. Usually, she doesn’t flip out about it, though. What did Dash do to get her in such a snit?
In the community around the rock farm, it is tradition, upon coming of age, to venture out into the world and see if it holds more interest than home. Cloudy Quartz’s journey took longer than most.
How is Twilight supposed to figure out what the cutie map means when it chooses a cutie mark that a bunch of ponies have, and none of said ponies bother showing up?
On Hearth’s Warming Eve, Princess Luna asks for special duty volunteers from among the Wonderbolts and Reserves. For the first time, Vapor Trail and Sky Stinger have the opportunity to make a child’s dream come true.
Long ago, a batpony made a promise to stand by his princess faithfully. It was the only mission he failed to complete. He can never make that up to her, but maybe he can ensure that she has a friend awaiting her return.
The griffons demand the return of hunting grounds they owned long ago. But since Princess Luna’s return, Equestria has only grown more formidable. In a small village of the disputed region, Lucky Strike finds herself caught up in a war not her own.
In a moment of anger, Twilight says something rash, which is precisely the wrong thing to do with Discord. And now she can't speak, just as one of her most treasured friendships burgeons into something more. She can figure this out.
The nightmares started… Twilight can’t remember just when. But they’ve gotten worse and worse, and why won’t Luna help, and now they’ve even stopped bothering her. That scares her more than any nightmare ever did.
Apple Bloom gets a rare chance to spend the day with her friend (and possible relative!) Maud Pie. Of course, she knows there's more to Maud than it appears, but her special talent means helping Maud to figure that out, too.
Sunset Shimmer weathered the storm. She returned from the darkest depths, and now she has good friends. People like her. If I haven't sunk too far myself… maybe she'll help me. Then I can help Sonata and Aria. Please, Sunset.
Poneas Fogg recently returned from his much-celebrated eighty-day journey around the world, but a new challenger has arisen, and a bet with Prince Blueblood will slash that time significantly. Sometimes winning isn’t the point.
Another visit to the ER for Dash, but that's not going to keep her from her usual night out with the girls. The conversation turns to Death, and… it's not at all what Twilight expected. Death either.
Every day, Princess Celestia wakes up in terrible pain, and every day, she chooses to endure it, until the one day she's left feeling blissfully normal. Few things have ever scared her so much.
Thunderstorms have always put Scootaloo on edge. A pegasus afraid of the weather. What's wrong with her? Rainbow Dash helped create this storm, too—Scootaloo should just stop being such a baby about it.
My dear friend and I serve to help ponies pass on to the afterlife. It is a beautiful purpose, and I love her like a sister. But then I found something to love even more. I… I am sorry, my faithful companion.
When you're a princess, you have to worry about political intrigue, affairs of state… and knowing when your friend is pulling your leg. There are no monsters in the basement!
I like my job, but of course I look forward to coming home at the end of the day. Especially lately. We have a daughter now. We actually have a daughter. And I can’t wait to see her.
Star Shine is a rare colt—some ponies believe him to be cursed. Detective Gumshoe doesn't believe a word of it, and he'll serve the Princesses he loves by finding out what's really been terrorizing the city.
Pinkie asks Spike to keep Maud company until she gets off work, but he can't just sit there and say nothing to Maud, right? But she barely talks back, so he continues filling the silence, and... well, he should have stayed quiet.
“It seems to me that you never properly graduated,” Celestia said. And so initiates one of the most unusual experiences Twilight Sparkle has ever had. She will fight a war, go back to school, and work middle management, all to prove her worth.
The Cutie Mark Crusaders find themselves as accidental stowaways on a pirate ship. All they want is some food, drink, and a fair price on their heads. Maybe the pirates should call in reinforcements.
Dinky Hooves goes out with the perfect plan for Derpy’s Hearth’s Warming gift. She has only to make the perfect pastry present a reality. And along the way, she’ll find an even better one.
Sonata Dusk used to have friends. They hung out together all the time and told her what to do, and that's what friends are, right? At least she has her tacos now, and she gets to hear pretty music, but Sunset Shimmer keeps looking at her funny.
Twilight Sparkle has asked Rarity over to the castle to help with... something. She wouldn't say what. And Rainbow Dash is sure going out of her way to make sure Rarity gets there. Finally time to deal with this, it seems.
