A foal asks somepony about her cutie mark. Years later, she's at the other end of the conversation.

On hiatus until further notice.

Twilight Sparkle wanders her friends' dreams.

A more lengthy project intended to get my writing back on track and to help me finally get this idea off my chest.

Also, much like some of my other stories, this one takes place after Season 3, but before Season 4.

Stride has a terrible condition. He has only one more year to live. His parents brought him to Ponyville, where he could live the rest of his days in the calm and quiet.
Too late for a CMC meeting, Scootaloo hurries through the streets with her scooter. She bumps into Stride and shortly afterwards, she notices his blank flank. Stride has the opportunity to become a crusader and make new friends, but how will he tell them he's only got one more year to go?

Now also with a dramatic reading! Voiced by FluddyPirate (It's her first dramatic reading, so be sure to boost her like button!)

With Twilight away in Canterlot, Spike is left to his own devices. But Ponyville isn't the busiest of towns and before long, boredom begins to creep.

So to cheer himself up he decides to go spend time with his friends. Five stalwart companions whom he has known through thick and thin.

But Spike soon begins to realise that really, those are Twilight's friends. Not his.

In fact he starts to wonder whether, since he moved to Ponyville, he's actually made any friends at all...

(*2nd edition. Based on feedback, the final chapter and epilogue have been added-to to better reflect the contributions of the CMC.)

Fluttershy hears it. She hears it all the time.

Ponies always talk about Discord--they whisper about him, even when she and her friend are around them. Ugly, they say. They find him ugly! They think he's a beast!

It makes Fluttershy's heart ache. She's afraid their words are hurting Discord--that he may think he's ugly too, because of what they say.

So when she holds an event for pets in need of adoption, and the gossip starts again, can Fluttershy stand up for him?

And what in the world does Discord mean by "You'll figure it out"?!?

Destiny is a funny thing.

Sometimes, at the drop of a hat, our destiny can change. Sometimes, we don't even notice it, and what we end up with is something that doesn't belong. Even after our true friends step in to right what was wrong, a false destiny can leave something behind, and all you can do is ignore it... or embrace it.

Set shortly after the end of Magical Mystery Cure

Lately, Discord had taken up gardening.

It was, admittedly, an unexpected hobby for the spirit of chaos and disharmony to pick up. But he'd easily justified it to himself--and everypony else who dared question--with the answer that chaos is being unexpected, and that true chaos is doing things that no one would have guessed, and so he was living perfectly up to his own nature.

He had created six unique varieties of flowers; they were completely unique to his little garden. Nowhere else in Equestria did one grow.
