Forever. A word that holds meaning. A word that holds promise. Forever. That was the word Vinyl whispered to Octavia as she went on tour. Octavia knew Vinyl would return. After all, Vinyl was her forever. But the months go on and Vinyl's calls become fewer. Her texts start everyday and become once or twice on the weekends. Octavia's forever is fading. But Vinyl will come back. She has to come back. Why wouldn't she come back? She had promised a forever. Forever was forever, but promises can always be broken

Five long years have passed since Octavia last saw Vinyl. Five years since that painful, horrid night. And now, Octavia want's to rekindle an old dying flame. But will Vinyl accept it's warmth, or snuff it out forever?

Octavia a mare of class and of deep regret, has come to a decision to end it. She just has one last thing she must do. She must write her last letter to Vinyl. Then she can finally stop.

Vinyl Scratch knew from the day they met that she and Octavia would be friends forever. They were inseparable, indivisible, invincible. Nothing would change that, Octavia promised. Nothing.

However, as time goes on, not all foalhood promises seem concrete. Time, after all, changes everything.

Inspired by and dedicated to the best friend I've ever known.

Rated Teen for some language and thematic elements.

It could have been just another night. Instead, Vinyl Scratch leaves a show to find herself suddenly presented with a chance to make a difference in the life of a filly no one else will look twice at. Now if only she can convince Octavia she's not making a huge mistake...as usual.

Note: This story now has an indirect sequel set several years in the future in The Most Unlikely Places. Cover art by SonicDash777.

A sad stallion has followed the Whooves family around since the beginning, always watching. Who is he? Why does he seem so familiar? What dreaded secret does he hold? The Doctor knows.

Vinyl wakes up every night from a horrible nightmare about falling through the open sky to her demise, but the nightmares don't end. Her mental deterioration reaches its peak when she falls unconscious at a party, and then begins her search for answers.

Suffering from hallucinations and intense emotional situations, Vinyl Scratch learns to trust the ponies she holds closest as she tries to find the truth behind her nightmares in this tale of friendship and the supernatural.

Teen for dark implications, references, and occurrences.

A charity concert played by the violinist star Melodia Allgrezza, and the chance meeting with the matron of the Heartstrings family leads Octavia to reunite with an old university acquaintance, Lyra Heartstrings. The two of them chat it up and it is revealed that Lyra has a friendly date with Vinyl Scratch, her friend for many years. Octavia is invited along and accepts, joining the two for a night of fun. It quickly develops, however, to something much more than that. For of all the things that Octavia had expected to see when she met up with this Vinyl, it was definitely not a near copy of Melodia Allegrezza.
Curiosity is a virtue, they say, and Octavia's drives her to one question that she will see answered no matter what: What is the relationship between Melodia and Vinyl Scratch? Who are they?

And here we go! My first (chaptered) TaviScratch story! I hope you guys like what you see so far.
I have been sitting with this idea since later summer 2013, and I finally got the chance to write it! This story isn't going to be your usual TaviScratch, I hope, and I will do what I can to mercilessly slaughter and then crush and then burn every trope I come across. I want to bring you guys something unique, and this will be it.

Hop along for a story of love, mistrust, friends and, most importantly, secrets!

Rated Teen for future sexual references, and the likes.

It was supposed to be Octavia’s first big moment in her beginning career. To her dismay a unicorn named Vinyl Scratch stole her spotlight and left an impression on the cellist she would so soon not forget.

This is my take on how two of my favorite ponies met and the stages they went through.

This story takes place about 2 years before Nightmare Moon returns, so you will not see any of the main characters here. If you are here for some Scootaloo & Rainbow Dash, I am sorry to disappoint you.

But please….stay a while and listen….err read.

Rated Teen for some slightly darker scenarios in later chapters and some crude attempted humor.
