Diamond Tiara has a problem. She can't tell anypony; that'll only make it worse. Instead, she tries to mitigate it- through the Crusaders, usually. But that will end sometime, and she'll need another release.
Or a solution. That might work too- but it'll have to be something big to be able to solve her problem.

This story is an experiment, for me. I've never tried writing DT before- so I fully expect her personality to shift a little in the first chapter or two as I get a feel for her. Comments are welcome- EXCEPT those talking about however her problem was fixed in season five. That situation would never happen- and Cheerilee would make sure of that.
DT's problem, here, is inspired in part by the Undead Robot Bug Crusaders by Banjo64- and in part by my own experience.
IMPORTANT: The first thirteen chapters are "old", and written in present tense. I'm better now, but can't be bothered to translate then to past tense just yet, so they'll stand. Chapter 14 and on, however, are "new"- and written in past tense. If the first thirteen are even remotely palatable, 14 and on should be at least a decent read. I don't recommend skipping, for fairly obvious reasons.
