If you think that your day is a little too short,
With too much to do for twenty-four hours,
Then you fall back on the final resort,
And go back in time with your magical powers.

Princess Celestia, in her infinite wisdom, comes to the conclusion that she doesn't have anywhere near enough time to do everything on her busy schedule. Not a problem for her, though. The solution to having no time is obvious: just make some more.

This story is a sequel to Hard Reset


Abstract

This is a followup story of Hard Reset, and talks about the experience of living in a loop from a more "slice of life" point of view, rather than adventures all the time. The original story ended several months after the reset point,‭ ‬and mentions the possibility that the time magic is still potent.‭ ‬The author feels like this is an important point that requires expansion.‭ ‬In fact,‭ ‬this is the most important point.

In this story, Twilight goes through her cyclic lives in a desperate and somewhat comedic search for meaning, but mostly just to avoid going mad from boredom.

There are very few library oak trees remaining in Equestria, and likewise only one remaining elderly Oakleaf to care for and tend the vanishing species.  When the Ponyville library is destroyed by Tirek’s rampage, the last of the Oakleafs is called to attempt the impossible. He must try to bring life back to the dead with what little life he has left himself.

It is an impossible task.  However, this is Ponyville, where the impossible happens every day.

Tempest Shadow was forgiven, and assigned to Twilight Sparkle's personal guard. Another villain reformed, another new friend for Equestria.

Another villain who didn't face justice.

The Noble Court has finally had enough, and has gathered together to form an inquiry into Celestia's reasoning for letting so many villains off the hook. The time has come to have the Princess of the Sun reveal why she's let so many of Equestria's most dangerous threats off of the hook.

They have to be careful, as Celestia has hooks of her own.

This story is a sequel to The Cadenza Prophecies


Princess Flurry Heart inherited her mother's beauty and grace as well as her father's strength and bravery. The Empire couldn't hope for a better or more suitable heir to the Crystal Throne. Everypony in Equestria admires her and thinks she will be an ideal ruler.

They're wrong.

Book 5 of the Alicorn Adventure series.

Straight from the Canterlot archives, this collection of documents retells the rise and fall of Princess Twilight Sparkle, Enlightened Despot of Equestria, Defender of the Peace, Lawgiver, and Commander of Fort Libris.

Twilight Sparkle is, of course, known to historians as the first usurper to seek to schedule a coup d'etat by appointment. But for other details- such as, "What is the longest recorded time a pony has gone without sleep?", "Is it true what they say about swans?", and, "Why is there an owlbear in the Equestrian Witness Protection Program?"- these documents provide the answers and much, much more.

This is ABSOLUTELY SERIOUS HISTORY from primary sources. If anything makes you think this is silly, ludicrous, or unbelievable, blame Discord.

Written for FanOfMostEverything's Imposing Sovereigns writing contest.
