There are many magical books in the world and all kinds of magic in them, not everything should be shared and harnessed. Somtimes it's better for things to be forgotten, left behind and abandoned. But for some ponies, their curiosity makes them do foolish things.

Pinkie Pie has an existential crisis while painting her room. This self-parody is dedicated to Professor Piggy, who once told me that I could write a story about Pinkie watching paint dry and weave it into an incredible psychological journey. Let's see if he was right.

Three years after the 'Cupcakes Massacre', Pinkamena Diane Pie is held in the Canterlot Prison for the Mentally Unbalanced. The state declared that ponies like her were beyond treatment or reason... but one doctor took interest into the mare's case and wanted to crack open her psyche in order to better understand her actions. Soon, a mental game of cat and mice takes place; in which you never know when one will be cornered.

Apple Bloom had always dreamed of the day. She just never dreamed that it would be a nightmare.

My name is Canvas. I remember because I wrote it in the corner of the white box. It takes twelve steps to get from the cot to the wall. And the lights hurt my eyes.

(Note: The story isn't in color because I decided to try this without the gimmick! But I still recommend reading the GDocs version.)

Twilight Sparkle just can't find enough time in the day. She has to study friendship for the Princess, hang out with her five friends, and juggle her own hobbies and interests besides. But when a novel solution presents itself in the form of an experimental new spell, will it solve her time crunch, or will she be distracted even further?

When everypony's family member comes in for Family Appreciation Day at school, Scootaloo builds up jealousy towards her friends. Not knowing where she came from, who her parents are or if she has any siblings, the Cutie Mark Crusaders head out across Equestria in a search to find where Scootaloo belongs.

After awaking from the hospital, Applejack discovers that she can't even look at apples without nearly losing her lunch! The timing couldn't be any worse either, considering the large event the entire Apple Family is holding at Sweet Apple Acres in three days. Can Twilight help get Applejack over her issue before the event begins?

Update, May 11: Published the re-written chapter 2! Left certain parts out, put a few new parts in; it's more or less the same, but I'd like to think that I've ironed out the wrinkles enough to start up the final chapter!

Four ponies embark on a two day hike into the wilderness that is the Everfree forest, but fail to return. The proceeding investigations and searches are eventually called as the bodies of two of the missing group are found, as well as a journal belonging to a pony by the name of Cath Amber.

Sorry Twilight, you are incorrect. That is not a true Windigo.
