It's been six months since Tirek was defeated, but Trixie still has nightmares. Nightmares of being pinned down, of the magic being ripped from her bones, of being thrown around like a worthless doll. It's been six months since Trixie has had a full night's sleep, and all she wants is peace.

But Trixie is fine. Trixie doesn't need Twilight. She doesn't need her family. She doesn't need anyone. Trixie loves being alone.

So why can't she stop crying?

A completely revamped version of a fic written for the Writeoff Association's May contest, "I Regret Nothing," which was originally published under the name Fight Back.
Loosely inspired by the song of the same name by Five Iron Frenzy.
Rated 'Teen' for some minor violent imagery.
Art by Kas92. Thanks to Manaphy, Floydien, Horizon, Trick Question, Majin Syeekoh, Imaginary Valued, and Pascoite for their advice and insights. I love you guys, and I couldn't do anything if it weren't for all of you guys putting up with my ceaseless nagging.

This story is a sequel to Show Business

When Twilight and Trixie started a relationship they knew there would be challenges if it was going to work. Luckily they at least have magic, so the unlikely couple can keep in touch while the traveling performer roaming Equestria. Invade their privacy and read their mail as we see how they kept in touch over the course of their relationship.
Meant as an addition to my previous work Show Business starting right after chapter 5, so it might not make sense with out the context. Going to run along side of the original story, though I'm not sure how consistent it's going to be. Timeline might end up jumping around if I get different ideas, so I'll probably make sure to indicate where the letters take place as more chapters are added.
As always let me know what you think. This is just going to be a little side project so it might be influences heavily by suggestions.
Will get the teen rating since it will probably be referencing things that happen in the original story.

The Great and Powerful Trixie has been working smaller venues than she is used to ever since the debacle in Ponyville. But that's not that big a deal for her, she's had to start from the bottom before. But just as she's reaching the heights she once knew and is poised to shoot even further, she runs into an annoyance from her past, one that seems dedicated to remaining an annoyance.

Set not too far after Trixie's first appearance in the series, and obviously going to ignore later appearances. Just something I thought of when thinking about Trixie's character and imagining some more depth behind it.
Teen for drinking scene and some implied bedroom business later, though nothing on screen.

Let me know what you think. This is my first time not writing from the view of one of the mane six, though the point of the story means my usual attempts to portray characters accurately will not be a factor.

Update: this story is now extending from it's original premise. While the feel of it should not change too much there will be more and potentially more mature content. Shouldn't be anything too bad but it's become a little more spontaneous so I'm not sure what kind of content should be expected at this point.

Really quite a long time after the changeling invasion of Canterlot, Fluttershy has something she wants to finally discuss with Princess Twilight.

What started out as a parody, jumping onto the latest meme train, turned into something cute that I actually liked enough to publish.

I'm sure you're thinking "Not another one of those damn things!" That's fair, but I still think it's fun and enjoyable.

In the wake of the Canterlot Wedding, Fluttershy has to ask Twilight a very difficult question.
