Opaline has declared herself the greatest Fire Alicorn in Equestria.

The actual greatest Fire Alicorn in Equestria would like to disagree.

As the end of the school semester and the Winter Wonderland ball approaches, Sunset receives an unusual request from Fluttershy that soon leads to a surprising revelation.

Written for Nailah for Jinglemas 2023

The whole school saw Sunset Shimmer's demonic form get hit by the Elements of Harmony, and half a second later she was in a smoking crater in the ground, sobbing and repentant. From Sunset's perspective, her change of heart took a bit more time.

Genre is... not well-suited but to be perfectly honest that's the closest it's gonna get. Think of it as a missing scene.

Sunset's favorite alley cat has always been distant, only sometimes letting her get close enough to actually pet her. Not wanting an old friend to suffer out in a terrible storm, she's determined to show her a little kindness and a better life.

When Sunset confronts the Dazzlings on her own, she gets bullied by the three girls. Depressed and alone, she debates internally if the Rainbooms and Twilight truly are her friends until a certain blue haired girl comes to her rescue.

"Sweetie, Are ya okay? Ah took a medical kit if ya need help?" Apple Bloom said as Sweetie kept totally still, the pair in front of her making no move to enter the small cave.

"Please do not harm this unit." The voice was distorted, damage to the vocal box giving a metallic tang to the request. Both Bloom and subject 2 jumped back from the entrance, their eyes wide at the distorted voice.

"S-Sweetie?" Apple Bloom stammered, reaching for the shotgun strapped to her barrel. Sweetie pressed herself a little deeper into her hiding place.

"Please do not harm this unit." Sweetie tried again, various subsystems starting to simulate the most optimal way to fight in her current state.

"H-Hey Sweetie, t-that's you, right?" subject two asked, sounding even more terrified than Apple Bloom.

A small Sweetie Bot story I had in the back of my mind and have occasionally dotted down things for for the last 9 months. Hopefully a fun read!

Sunset came back to Equestria during the summer for some artistic inspiration, so Twilight sent her to Mount Aris. Guided by Silverstream and Terramar, they come across an unusual fruit and learn a bit about each other's cultures and their views of gender.

In the season seven finale of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. When Starswirl the Bearded returns from Limbo along with the rest of the Pillars and the Pony Of Shadows, he does not bother listening to Starlight Glimmer at all about whether they should even attempt to reform Stygian.

But what if something in Starlight snapped that day? What if being ignored, gaslighted, and pushed around lit a fuse in Starlight. What if that confrontation in the library went VERY differently.

This story is a sequel to I'm New Here

Cheerilee is a kind hearted teacher who cares about her students and their well-being. When she catches one sleeping outside the school in a bush, she decides to take the young girl home and give her a roof over her head and maybe even more.

Five months after the Fall Formal, Sunset Shimmer was Canterlot High School’s least popular student. Fluttershy was taking a scenic route home from the animal shelter one weekend early April when she saw Sunset in need of a helping hand. She decided that someone needs to reach out to Sunset first, and that she would be glad to fill that role.

This story was my entry to the Spring Fling contest celebrating the tenth anniversary of the first Equestria Girls movie.
