Twilight once thought she knew everything there was to know about cutie mark magic. She was wrong. As it turns out, there is a lot more content out there when it comes to cutie mark magic, unlocking that potential is something not just any pony can do, much to the frustration of a certain white-coated alicorn princess.

This is a dumb one-shot vaguely inspired by a writing prompt found on Reddit, and was a caffeine fueled midnight adventure into the wonderful world that is fan-fiction.
As my second ever fanfic, first ever completed fanfic, and first upload on this site, I don't expect greatness, but what better way is there to learn and improve?

Feel free to point out any errors I might have missed, as well as anything that is particularly irritating to read, or that doesn't make sense grammatically. Most of all though, hope you enjoy!

Edit: Featured? Thank you so much everyone, this is heaps more than I had hoped for, I really appreciate that!

A teacher at CHS has assigned an extra credit project. It's a bit out there: Come up with an idea for an original invention and write an oral presentation and pitch for it to give in front of a panel of judges and an audience of peers.

There's no possible way that can end badly, right?

The Mane 7 are traveling to watch the solar eclipse. Sunset Shimmer has just one question. What's a solar eclipse?

As the Princess of Friendship, the only thing Twilight Sparkle loves as much as books, reading, books, making new friends, books, spending time with her friends, and...books...

...is spreading the magic of friendship. And one easy way to do that is to introduce your friends to each other.

In need of a weekend away from the castle before heading out to the Crystal Empire to spend time with her family, Twilight decides to take a little vacation to the human world...and brings three of her newest friends along.

After all, if Princess Ember, Moondancer, and Starlight Glimmer are all Twilight's friends, surely they'll get along well with each other and with Sunset Shimmer!

Right?

Always one more turn.

Sunset Shimmer meets Sunset Shimmer. Sunset Shimmer is very confused, but Sunset Shimmer seems to have the situation under control. Sunset Shimmer is also kind of attracted to Sunset Shimmer. Sunset Shimmer thinks she’s pretty okay with that.

Entry for the Changing Seasons Contest

Just a heads up, this is straight AU, but it's set in the EGU.

One timeline after another, Twilight and Spike are thrown into a world of Starlight's morbid machination. Another tragic end to Equestria, another circumstance of failure.

The frigid wind does little to ease Twilight's thoughts as a simple question plagues her mind:

"What happened here?"

Takes place during the Season 5 finale.

Third place in the Nightmare Moon 2017 Summer Contest.
Featured 8/6/17 - 8/8/17.

They're gone... and they're never coming back.

It was a spontaneous decision, one that I regret every waking moment. At the time, when I had to choose between my friends and all the alicorn magic in Equestria, I didn't answer the question fast enough.

They're dead now, and the worst part? I won.

Sunset knows that Twilight is still new to this whole friendship thing, but when the girls decide to invite her to a party to help loosen her up she decides to tag along to look out for her. But what if Twilight see this as something more than simply friendship?

(This is a deleted scene from another story. I’ll explain at a later date)

Ponyville declares to Celestia that they are now their own sovereign nation. It goes about as well as you'd expect.
