Sunset Shimmer weathered the storm. She returned from the darkest depths, and now she has good friends. People like her.

If I haven't sunk too far myself… maybe she'll help me. Then I can help Sonata and Aria.

Please, Sunset.

Thanks to Present Perfect for his help.

A pair of sequels, of sorts, are posted here and here.

The portal between Equestria and Sunset Shimmer’s world has closed unexpectedly. Despite Twilight and Sunset’s best efforts, the girls have been unable to come up with a solution. Running low on pages to talk across the dimensional rift, Twilight reads what might be Sunset’s final message to her. However much to Twilight’s surprise, there’s also another message to a different pony.

Inspired by a conversation with Tired Old Man and the story The Last Page, with apologies to Holy.

Sunset Shimmer invites Fluttershy over to her place in order to study together for their test tomorrow. Everything is going great, until Sunset catches Fluttershy off guard with a random question about crushes.

Was this just a study date? Or did Sunset have something more... personal in mind?

Sunset has reached the final page in her journal to Twilight. With no idea what to write on it, she has to think about living life without the guidance that she's relied on for so long, and possibly without one of her best friends.

Fluttershy visits Rarity in the middle of the night. She's white as a sheet.

A hidden museum rests in the Canterlot palace, by law open to the public, by practice closed to visitors. Within its walls lie treasures of opal and gemstones, salt and wood. Shelves filled with untouched scrolls line the walls.

It is here that Luna pays her respects to Equestria's fallen heroes. Why, then, is it against her sister's wishes?

This story is a sequel to Thunder and Lightning

Applejack has been your best friend for a long time, since you both were little kids. But as of late, you've been looking at her differently. When you get close to her, your heart beats faster. Her southern accent makes your heart dance. You've caught... feelings. Out of fear of destroying the greatest friendship you have, you begin to distance yourself a little bit. The last thing you want is to make things awkward.

One day, Applejack approaches you and invites you to come with her family to the Apple Family Reunion. An extended period of time close to Applejack... your best friend... your crush. How are you going to keep your feelings contained when you're around her for so long? Or... maybe you shouldn't keep them to yourself. Maybe it's finally time to admit how you truly feel.

3rd installment of the The Cute, the Fluffy, and Romantic

One day a man wakes up in a pony's bed. For the next several days the two of them try to discover why such a thing happened.

They don't do a very good job of figuring anything out but they do cuddle a lot.

Sunset was enjoying her day, going through school as she was expected to do, when she's suddenly called to the Principal's office.

Confused, but with little choice in the matter, she answers, heading to Celestia's office. There, she finds the Principal sitting, wanting to have a chat.

Sunset was not prepared for anything like this.

Now with Youtube reading!
