"Hey, you used to be Celestia's student, right? Did you know Sunset Shimmer?"

"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." - "Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)" by John Lennon

Stellar Flare makes all kinds of plans. But when something she couldn't have planned for happens, she remembers what keeps her going.

Title inspired by (obviously) the song of the same name by John Lennon.

Adults were weird. That’s Flurry’s conclusion after three years of watching her Uncle Sunburst and Auntie Starlight stutter and blush around each other. It’s obvious that they liked each other, and Auntie Applejack always said that you should be honest. So why can’t those two be honest about their feelings? Well, Flurry’s sick of it. She’s gonna have to do something about Sunburst and Starlight’s little situation. Her mommy would be proud.

Despite the challenges of being student counselor, Trixie has grown to enjoy her time working at the School of Friendship. However, all of that may be at risk when news of Princess Twilight Sparkle's sudden passing arrives at her doorstep in the form of the daily newspaper. With the students and staff too busy for the morning news, she must make a difficult decision that could put the entire school at risk, and maybe even Equestria. The question now, is she ready to tell Starlight what happened? And is Starlight ready to handle it?

Disclaimer: No, i did not, and will not, explain how Twilight died. That will remain up to the reader.

Yet another story written for one of The Nameless One's writing challenge. Since the theme for this one was much broader and I had a lot more time than last time (Shopping Pressure), I took the chance to make it a sneak peek into my bigger story: Divided We Fall (previously Friendship is Sadness). It happens within the same universe and is made to show how the story will be like, so I hope you enjoy it! Also, Trixie was surprisingly difficult to write.

“But that was then, and this is now./I tried so hard not to let you all down./It's an impossible weight,/So I'll just let you down now.” -Deep Sea Diver, 'Impossible Weight (feat. Sharon Van Etten)'

For spring break, Starlight Glimmer and Sunburst return back to Sire's Hollow to visit with their parents. Being their first trip back as a couple, the two are not looking forward to their parents talk about their relationship. However, both Stellar Flare and Firelight have an exciting announcement to share for when they arrive.

Sunburst has gotten into the habit of waking up early on every Hearts and Hooves day to make breakfast for them.

Starlight doesn't know what to make of it until much, much later.

_{Just a little StarBurst fluff for the holiday (a very, very late one, but still!). Enjoy!}

Doing the chores in a large building like the Castle of Friendship is a hassle. Fortunately, Starlight volunteered to do the laundry for the evening. Now all she has to do is to do the job correctly, something a talented unicorn like herself can't mess up... right?

Some bonds take longer to form than others. Some require quite a bit of pressure. Some happen whether you like it or not.

Some need only a spark.

Life moves on and Starlight tries her best to do the same, not because she wants to, but because she has to, for the sake of her daughter and all those around her.

She slips every once in a while though and the one night she allows herself to feel weakness, it happens to be in front of Sunburst, her ex-husband, and the man who still owns her heart.

Now that fate has put him in her path once again, it's time to decide if she really wants to move on or not.

<sub>This story is ten chapters long and a new chapter will be posted every day.

Warnings: Out of character, cheesiness, the typical drama that comes with divorce, and probably the most egregious, Luster Dawn is their biological daughter in this one.</sub>

This story is a sequel to Destroyed in a Flurry

(Reading the prequel is not necessary.)

Shining Armor and Sunburst take Flurry Heart to Earth to visit Disney World. Disney isn't ready for this princess.
