This story now has a Youtube reading.

One by one, Twilight and her friends must come to terms with the consequences of being the Elements of Harmony.

These stories take place in the intervening time between Season One and Season Two,
with the exception of Ditzy Doo: Muffins, which takes place early in Season One.

The series continues in the sequel, Secrets and Lies.

Pony Psychology has a TV Tropes Page.

After having put up with Cinch for most of their high school life, Indigo and her friends decide to follow Twilight and go to CHS. They get a less than warm reception and have to earn their schools trust.

We took who she was, and rejected her.

But we were so wrong...

Spike was left alone in Manehatten, blamed himself for the breezies and Twilight, his practical big sister, completely ignored him when he was scared to death in the Everfree Castle. Realizing that no one may care about him anymore, Spike thinks that he is no longer needed and tries to kill himself.

Spike tells of his feelings towards the Mane Six's treatment of him when they were growing up.

*An AU extended ending to Season 8 - "Father Knows Beast"*

It's been days since the greedy manipulator Sludge was revealed to have lied about being Spike's Father. Spike, originally excited to have had an actual dragon as a parental figure, now fears he will never have a family outside of Twilight to call his own.

However, despite Spike's hesitations, Twilight insists that he goes on a mission to tell each of their close friends what happened in regards to Sludge's scheme and form a bond with them. Spike has his doubts though as he fears the others aren't family and will reject him. Nevertheless, he sets out on a very personal mission.

How will each pony react to finding out that the baby dragon was taken advantage of as an excuse for room and board? Will they be able to help Spike and show that they love him? Will Spike discover that there's more to a family than he originally thought?

Never had a 'Princess Celestia' or 'Princess Luna' ever heard of. There was, though, Celestia and Luna, Servants of the Six Princesses of Harmony. Until one goes against the other, hatred taking her heart. But is it really her?

Kind of like MLP S1 E1&2, but no Princess Celestia or Luna.

Slight AU ending to "Friendship Is Magic" part 2. What if, immediately following the defeat of Nightmare Moon, the Mane Six's new connection to the reactivated Elements of Harmony triggered a transformation in the six heroines, causing them all to be upgraded to alicorn status? Can they learn to master their new alicorn powers? And how will Equestria act in general to the emergence of these six new alicorns?

The Bearers of the Elements of Harmony will take the throne in her wake... Not that they know that yet...
