Applejack tells the Cutie Mark Crusaders about how Lyra and Bon-Bon first met and got their cutie marks.

No sex, no eroticism, just cuteness. Written for the /co/ Valentine's Day ship off way back in 2011.

Illustration by my dear friend Auraion/CANDYBAG.

A story of love, pain, choices and the unpredictably of life. Cover by *chibi-jen-hen on deviant art, title "Love Spell".

Edited by the wonderful MrMinimii.
I thank him for his patience.

Since the beginning of time, ponydom has been forced to compete for survival.
This spirit of competition has reached a pinnacle in the relationship of two best friends.who battle against each other.

Why?

Glory for the winner.
Humiliation for the loser.

This is Lyra vs. Bon Bon

Lyra explains the unfortunate series of events that drove her to cry when the parasprite devoured her pie. Very minor shipping elements, with Bon Bon, obviously. It was inevitable.

Twilight Sparkle writes an important letter about how she became friends with Lyra the unicorn, a mistake she made, its terrible consequence, and one of friendship’s hardest lessons.

(Thanks to _Medicshy for giving me his feedback on this. Anything about the characters in the story that seems off is probably an instance of me not taking his advice.)

Lyra Heartstrings, A Young mint green unicorn pony with a special talent for the lyre, but ever since she was a little filly she was always fascinated by these creatures called "Humans", Her Dream was to find and study Human beings and when she met a chestnut colored stallion her whole life change.

The recoil from Family Appreciation Day was too much for Diamond Tiara. Her fellow students turned their back on her, Cheerilee was upset with her, even her own father had been severely disappointed with her actions. She has no one left now. Her perfect world is falling apart. And only one pony can help her. The only pony she could ever count on.

But is she her friend anymore?

Warning: Fic contains empathy for a dislikable character. If you want to keep hating Diamond Tiara, then avoid this fic. Otherwise, read on.

Author's Note: I wrote this after watching Family Appreciation Day and noticed the subtle divide between Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara. An idea formed in my head and I had to write this oneshot as soon as I could. Certain questions maybe unanswered or details may be missed. If you spot any of those, I apologize. Otherwise, I hope you enjoy the fic.

In this sequel to "A Canterlot Anniversary", Princess Cadance gives birth to her and Shining Armor's foal, making the happy couple a happy family.

I know this type of story has been done before, you know "How did Derpy become the mother of two unicorns?" and "Why is she cross-eyed and whats with her mark and muffin craving?" Well this is my way of telling it.

When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.
